Line 8:
* What about when Bill ties the record for most touchdowns, against the strongest defense in H.S football, and almost every defensive line trying to take down the old, injured player. Not only he survived and got a touchdown, but the other players respected him.
* Bobby wants to quit little league football (the coach is psychotic) and take up soccer instead:
{{quote|
''(pause)''
'''Bobby''': Why do you have to hate what you don't understand? }}
** [[Crowning Moment of Funny|...I don't HATE you, Bobby.]]
Line 21:
* Dale's plot to save his friends from a nutter who was elected president of the gun club: Hank, Bill and Boomhauer were held captive in Mad Dog's cabin and Dale tried to rescue them but was easily caught. However, Dale was able to play to Mad Dog's paranoia by pretending he was a CIA contract killer and was recieving radio messages. At that moment, a stream of florist vans swarms the property and due to Dale previously telling the gun club his favorite tactic is to bring in CIA agents disguised as flower delivery men everyone thinks it really is the CIA and Mad Dog flees. The gun club unties Dale and immediately reelects him as president, letting him go outside and show the flowermen his CIA badge (really just opening his wallet to show he has no money) and sic them on Mad Dog (tell them Mad Dog has money to pay). In one single move Dale rescues his friends, gets rid of Mad Dog, earns the gun club's respect and even (in a way) lives one of his favorite stories.
* How is the graffiti in The Hole not here?

BOBBY HILL - {{spoiler|3 days}} }}
** To properly set the scene Bobby was misbehaving as per usual and Cotton convinced Hank to send him off to Fort Burke (a military school). Cotton finds out that due to lawsuits it's been toned down on the punishment (hazing was reduced from beating new recruits with socks full of oranges to smashing trash can lids together on the first night) after being told this Cotton tries to take over the place. The principal tells him he has no right to fire him (Cotton gets him fired by talking with his dean). Cotton takes over punishing him harder. He begins with making him rake leaves and Bobby makes jokes (pretends he's eating them) Cotton makes him eat all the leftover food from the other cadets. Bobby happily eats them so Cotton makes him sit on a large block of ice in his underwear and Bobby waits it out (He says his fat makes it easy for him to survive the cold).Then he's forced into the Hole and he outlasts Cotton when he was a kid. The best part is the second he gets out he sees his other cadets, smiles and cracks a joke.
* Hank {{spoiler|tossing a pervert golfer who was sexually harassing Luanne (as in touching her inappropiately) into the water where a dolphin, who attempted to rape Hank earlier, swims.}}
{{quote|
* Peggy beating the crap out of Luanne's drunken jailbird mother with her size 16 1/2 feet.
{{quote|
'''Peggy''': Well, there is one thing that you did not count on! My brother has got size six feet! BUT I DON'T! '''HO YEAH!!!''' }}
** Equally awesome is the speech Peggy gives before said beating, where she calls Leanne on the fact that she refuses to act like a mother to a young woman who loves her regardless, and tells her that they want her to leave.
{{quote|
* Bill, constant series loser, pulling heartbroken Boomhauer out of his funk with a truly epic rant
{{quote|
* A McMansion gets built in the neighborhood, and the construction is so shoddy that during a large thunderstorm, it threatens to actually fall apart and destroy several houses around it. What does the community do? GRAB HAMMERS, AXES, CHAINSAWS, AND A TRUCK AND TEAR THE DAMN THING DOWN WHILE THE THUNDERSTORM IS RAGING AROUND THEM.
** They also [[Asskicking Pose|pose as a team]] beforehand, with tools that [[Weapon of Choice|match their personalities]]. So ''of course'' Peggy would pick up the huge battle-ax. "Ho Yeah" indeed.
** Do not mess with the Rainey Street Wrecking Crew.
* After being the female gender's answer to [[
{{quote|
** Of course, he then one-ups her and ''dies'', right then and there, probably with a smile on his face.
* Cotton gets one of his own when he meets the kids Luanne is watching, who are an infuriating pair of wannabe hippies who accuse anyone who tries to exert the slightest bit of control over them of being a Nazi. As you might imagine, this isn't the smartest thing to say to a World War II veteran.
{{quote|
* Hank gets one in ''Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men'' to Cotton in the perfect [[Shut UP, Hannibal]] on how his old wife LEFT HIM, not the other way around, and that Cotton's afraid of strong women, and that Cotton is afraid of being all alone. All the while convincing some corporate stiffs to keep his mower in production. This is one of the times [[Super Saiya Man|this troper]] actually likes Hank.
* Hank gets one during the [[Halloween Episode]]. Halloween has been banned, so Hank starts a protest by putting on his old devil costume and starts chanting "Trick or treat."
Line 54:
* Dale helping Hank getting his driver's licence changed so it identifies him as a male instead of a female by using his rampant paranoia ''to his advantage'' for once.
* Khan gets one in the episode "Orange You Sad I Did Say Banana". In the episode, Khan begins to feel he's not in touch with his Laotian hertiage after Ted Wasongasong calls him a "Banana" (An Asian who acts white, similar to an 'oreo') and tries to act more like a "traditional" Laotian (Much to the dismay of Connie and Mihn). However, when he finds out that Ted wants him to fight in a battle against the Laotian government (a battle which he points out he'll most likely either die in or be [[Brainwashed and Crazy|brain-washed]] in), he calls Ted (A man he ''idolizes'' the the point of [[Ho Yay]]) out on it.
{{quote|
** Here's another one (probably minor) for Khan: in the episode showing the aftermath of the explosion at Megalo Mart, he calls out Luanne for acting as a bitter [[Soapbox Sadie]] who hides her emotional pain and true personality. This causes Luanne to look at the error of her ways later on.
* Peggy also has one in [[The One With...|the one where]] [[Creator's Pet|Lucky]] tries to get his GED. After she finds out that his "code of honor" won't let him marry Luanne till he gets his GED. She intentionally tells him the wrong answers (though she's right that a number can have more than 1 square root). Then, after she admits it, she finds out that neither his father nor grandfather had met their goals. She tells Hank, "I think what we're looking at here is a long line of bastards." When he tells Hank to kick him in the ribs for some reason, she kicks him instead.
Line 62:
* Hank managing to stop a group of rioting kids in "Bobby Rae". Not by yelling at them and/or threatening to kick their asses, but by ''calmly'' pointing out all the horrible things that might happen to them while protesting.
* Bobby reassuring Peggy at the end of "Transnational Amusements Presents: Peggy's Magic Sex Feet":
{{quote|
BOBBY: I can imagine, Mom. I'm fat.
PEGGY: Oh, no, honey, you're husky! It says so on your jeans.
BOBBY: Mom, I'm fat. But big deal. I don't feel bad about it, and you never made me feel bad about it. And just because there are people out there who want me to feel bad about it doesn't mean I have to. So Bobby Hill's fat. He's also funny, he's nice, he's got a lot of friends, a girlfriend. And if you don't mind, I think I'll go outside right now and squirt her with water. What are ''you'' going to do? }}
* Buck actually gets one during the episode at the national propane gas association convention. No really. Don't scroll away, I'm telling the truth. After he and his recently discovered son Ray Roy's actions drive Hank to get sloshed, humiliate himself in front of a huge crowd, and barf on one of the platinum circle women, Buck and Ray Roy hatch a plan, along with Peggy. Drawing the punishment board away from Hank with a promise of a "hospitality suite", Buck and Ray Roy frame them with pictures of the cute girls from the suite all over the board. Not only do they not punish Hank, they induct him into the hall of flame with Buck.
Line 73:
** Later on he successfully (read: does not die) runs with the bulls without any testosterone whatsoever.
* No one has even made mention of Luanne in "Keeping Up With Our Joneses"? For shame! Granted, this was in the first season, before she became [[Too Dumb to Live]]. Basically, the Hill Family became addicted to cigarette smoking, thanks to Hank. Luanne remained the only remember of the household not addicted, and took on the duty of making sure the Hills didn't stray from their attempt to give it up. It reached the point that all three Hills were willing to kill one another over a single cigarette, until Luanne managed to lock them inside Hank and Peggy's bedroom. They remained there for the night until they beat their collective addiction together. It's what Luanne says as she's locking them inside that really clinches it:
{{quote|
** Luanne also gets another, albeit minor, one when going into labour with Gracie. After being caught in a tug-of-war on child-rearing between her sister-in-law Myrna and Peggy, she finally stands up for herself and [[Take a Third Option|takes a third choice: her own.]]
* In the final episode, Bobby single-handedly takes on the state meat-grading championship after the rest of his team is stranded by their rivals. ''After'' the team disparaged him and treated him like crap for making a mistake at regionals. The crowner comes at the end, where the team shows up and forces Bobby onto the sidelines on the assumption that he'll choke. On the final challenge, they're about to declare a cut of beef perfect, but Bobby sees an imperfection. Hank tells him to stand up for himself and Bobby goes over and, against the protests of his team, points out the flaw, winning the competition entirely on his own.
* Peggy gets one during the episode when Bobby starts using a ventriloquist dummy. Hank is at first utterly mortified that Bobby is "playing with a doll", until Bobby begins using the dummy, Chip, to display knowledge of sports events and history. But it becomes increasingly clear that Hank is having more fun with Chip than with Bobby, and actually tells Bobby to suck it up when he complains that his hand's getting numb. Dale destroys the dummy due to an irrational fear of the thing, and Hank to decides to build a new oney, based off of Chip in his own image. Peggy is instantly aware that Hank is taking this opportunity to build the perfect surrogate son, constructing it to be everything he wishes Bobby was. She suggest this to Hank:
{{quote|
** At first, it appears Peggy's words don't get through to Hank, until he finally finishes, and the dummy is now designed to look exactly like Bobby.
* The entire Hill family (the main three, anyway) had one collectively in the episode where they take down the corrupt city council, thanks to the chairman forcing low-flow toilets on Arlen. Hank joins the council to affect change, Bobby discovers that the chairman owns the company that makes the low-flows, and Peggy gives him the idea to filibuster until the other members have to "go", which convinces them that the low-flows are garbage and gets them to vote to get rid of them.
Line 83:
* In the episode where Peggy is secretly slipping Hank testosterone pills, a more alert Hank took the opportunity to dismantle Dale's latest conspiracy by pointing out that it contradicts numerous other conspiracies he's ranted about over the years, leaving Dale speechless as Hank effortlessly demonstrates that he's been listening to every insane thing that has come out of Dale's mouth over the years and ''paid attention to it''.
* A minor one, but in the episode "Texas City Twister", Hank tries to get Luanne to move back into her old trailer when he finds out the park is still trying to charge her rent. What's awesome is the exchange from when the wrench carrying loan shark comes to his house:
{{quote|
Shark: Sir, if you're calling me a liar, [[Tempting Fate|you better be holding something stronger than an umbrella.]]<br />
Hank: 9-iron?<br />
Shark: [[Oh Crap|...]] Have a nice day, sir. }}
* In "Ceci N'Est Pas une King of the Hill," Dale becomes [[Drunk
* When Lenore comes back into Bill's life and ruins his relationship with Ann Richards, Bill proposes to Lenore again and she turns him down. Then she sees Ann and announces that Bill proposed to her. When Lenore begins shrieking like a harpy for Bill to get out of Ann's car, Bill finally tells Lenore where to stick it by mooning her.
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny|"YOU'RE PART OF A TWELVE-HEADED JACKASS!!!"]]
Line 96:
* In "The Exterminator" Dale is told that if he inhales anymore poison he'll die, forcing him to give up his career as an exterminator. He gets an office job and things go well until a massive swarm of roaches (which Dale bred) takes over the lunch room. Dale goes into [[Combat Pragmatist]] mode and kills every single one of them with various office supplies and his own hands. The battle ends when he crawls into the vent they're spewing from, spins like a turbine and crushes all of them.
* All of Cotton's WWII flashbacks and stories count ([[Unreliable Narrator|assuming they're true]]) but the first is still the best: The loss of his shins. The flashback ends with the visual of Cotton beating a man to death with his friend's severed leg on top of a pile of corpses and surrounded by burning buildings, ''after'' he had his shins blown off.
{{quote|
* In ''Bobby Slam'', Peggy begins to encourage Connie's desire to be on the school wrestling team despite the sexist coach constantly spouting "girls can't play sports". Peggy and Connie go to Khan and Minh, who decide to support Connie's decision since it'd look good on her college applications. When they go to Principal Moss, he offers that Connie take gymnastics instead. As he puts it, "asian girls usually excel at gymnastics. With their tiny little feet, balance beam seems as wide as a sidewalk." Both Khan and Minh looked as if they wanted to tear Moss's throat out, and then order him to let Connie try out for the team or they'll sue. You do NOT discriminate against their daughter.
* In the episode where Bobby is believed to be a Lama, Hank acts like an ignorant jackass about it. When he confronts a monk about it, he completely owns Hank by using Buddhist philosophy.

'''Monk:''' Or does it make perfect sense?
'''Hank:''' [[Catch Phrase|I'm going to kick your ass!]]<br />
'''Monk:''' [[Crowning Moment of Funny|If my ass will be kicked, then it will be kicked]].
