00:00You talk too much.
00:05Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for grand smooches in animated shows that took us by surprise.
00:18Number 10, Rudy's Valentine's Day, Bob's Burgers.
00:23The payoff here is great, though completely unexpected from a character like Louise.
00:28I don't really celebrate Valentine's Day. It's an invented holiday, you know.
00:32Read it.
00:32Fine, fine. It's the same as Jean's card.
00:35Here come your kisses.
00:37Eh, Jean can have them.
00:38She spends the first half of the episode trying to dissuade Rudy's romantic feelings for her, only to find out she's not actually the one he has a crush on.
00:47Unfortunately, Louise's work isn't done.
00:50In order to prevent Rudy's feelings from getting hurt, Louise takes it upon herself to convince Chloe Barbash to meet up with Rudy and give him that first kiss he's been looking for.
01:00When Chloe vehemently declines, Louise breaks the news to him and gives him something extra to ease the heartbreak.
01:08Okay, thanks for letting me know, Louise. I guess I was silly to think I could get a kiss on Valentine's Day.
01:14And she does it in the most Louise way possible.
01:18Whoa.
01:19Ow.
01:20If you tell anyone about this, I will end you.
01:24I think I'm sweating.
01:31This was amazing, Gwen. You're amazing. Thanks.
01:36No prob. Well, night.
01:42So, the tracking footsteps definitely gives us a small heads up in the moment, but nothing about this episode clued us in that we might be getting a kiss.
01:51Gwen gets a normal amount of screen time, she's captured by Venom, and later on, she and her dad join Peter and May for Thanksgiving dinner.
01:59Just glad I started the turkey this morning. You know, before the post-traumatic stress kicked in.
02:03By this point in the show, we're aware that she likes Peter as more than just a friend, but it still looks like it's going to stay just a crush for the time being.
02:11Luckily, Gwen takes MJ's advice to do something about it, and leaves both Peter and us watching at home with our mouths ajar.
02:18Just 13 episodes into the series, we weren't expecting the change in dynamic, but we're super glad to have been wrong.
02:37Stomach cries.
02:38It didn't take very long at all for Sir Penchis to go from seeing Cherry Bomb as a sworn enemy to crush material.
02:44And like, can you blame him? His shy advances thus far had all failed, generally because Penchis couldn't work up the nerve to just spit out what he really wanted to say.
02:54This bomb? Cherry? I want to tell you that I... I love... I'd love to wish you good luck in the battlehead.
03:06In the season finale, however, he runs out of opportunities to stall.
03:10When Alistair is compromised, Sir Penchis steps up to take down Adam.
03:15With his sacrifice on the horizon, he intercepts Cherry Bomb mid-fight, plants one on her, and finally declares his love.
03:24Miss Cherry Bomb, I love you. Remember me!
03:30That was kind of hot.
03:32Number 7. A soft spot for musicians. Adventure time.
03:36In her first major appearance, Huntress Wizard makes her mark.
03:40Let me see that hand. You're what I've been looking for.
03:45This is no slow-burning flame. She approaches Finn when he's bathing in a river first off, and then she invites him and Jake to stay the night.
03:53It's awfully forward, but Finn is adamant that there's nothing else going on.
03:58He's genuinely just trying to help her summon the forest spirit, until he actually has an encounter with the forest spirit.
04:06From then, we've given little hints that Finn may have a little crush.
04:10I was playing my flute for you the whole time, but I knew you had a thing with this dude, and he seems cool.
04:16So I was just gonna keep playing this flute song about my secret feelings until my flute broke.
04:21By the end, he's honest with Huntress Wizard, and though she says they can't be together, she abruptly kisses him.
04:28Finn. Yeah, what?
04:33My flute spell was for you too.
04:35Number 6. In the confessional, total drama.
04:39Get over here, you big lug. I'm not really mad, I just missed you.
04:44Every time I ran from the cops, I thought of you.
04:47By this point in the series, we're utterly confused.
04:51We've long since been shipping Duncan and Courtney, but the chemistry Duncan and Gwen have developed was hard to deny.
04:57Gwen's in the middle of her confessional after winning the challenge, and she's just starting to bring up Duncan when, wouldn't you know it, in he comes.
05:05And Duncan's back, and he missed us.
05:10Oh my gosh, I didn't lock the door?
05:12The lock's busted.
05:13Because he's still with Courtney at the time, we're really not expecting anything other than maybe a little flirting.
05:19Apparently though, the tension had reached a peak, because it only takes about 15 seconds for the two to lock lips.
05:25Oh, hey.
05:28Number 5. My first girlfriend turned into the moon.
05:32Avatar The Last Airbender.
05:34Okay, now I'm really confused.
05:36Happy, but confused.
05:39At least two of the unexpected kisses in the series involve Sokka.
05:43In book one, Sokka gets the wrong idea about Yue's feelings, thinking it's his class status that makes them incompatible.
05:51He's so sweet about it, but Yue can't possibly let him think that that's the problem.
05:56So she shows him exactly how she feels about him.
05:59You're a princess, and I'm... I'm just a southern peasant.
06:03No, Sokka.
06:05It's okay. You don't have to say anything.
06:08I'll see you around, okay?
06:12Later on, in book two, Sokka would struggle to seal the deal with Suki.
06:16But the next day, when Suki is about to bring up that particular encounter, he stops her ramblings with a heartfelt kiss.
06:23Listen, I'm really sorry about last night.
06:27We were talking and saying things.
06:30I just got carried away, and before I knew it, I...
06:34While the latter of these had more buildup than the former, both smooches blindsided the characters.
06:40And us.
06:41You talk too much.
06:44Fool us once? Shame on you.
06:47Fool us twice? Well, we're not so mad about it.
06:50Not when it's this cute.
06:52In the first instance, Sam pulls Danny behind some bushes when they're about to be caught by Valerie.
06:58The shock must be enough to revert him back to human form, because he's just plain old Danny when Valerie does spot them.
07:04No escaping me now, bitch!
07:06Do you mind?
07:07In the second season debut, Danny pulls the same trick on Sam.
07:11He's about to be caught in ghost form by his parents, but apparently decides he'd rather be caught in a make-out.
07:17What's going on down there?
07:19Oh, man, your dad. You've got to change back to normal.
07:22Change back? How?
07:24I don't know.
07:25I don't know.
07:26I don't know.
07:27I don't know.
07:28I don't know.
07:29I don't know.
07:30I don't know.
07:31I don't know.
07:32I don't know.
07:33I don't know.
07:34I don't know.
07:35How?
07:36I don't know.
07:37You just think about it or something.
07:38This one has Sam swooning, and we're not so straight-faced at home either.
07:47I call that a fake-out make-out.
07:49Yeah, I know.
07:50Number three, before the memory erasing, Phineas and Ferb.
07:54Phineas and Isabella's first kiss is one that gets erased from everyone's minds, except for ours.
08:00Never ours.
08:01And it's also one that comes out of nowhere.
08:04Hit it, Carl!
08:05Wait, wait, wait!
08:06Isabella is not one to let an opportunity pass her by,
08:09and she doesn't hesitate when there's an opening in across the second dimension.
08:13Uh, Major Monogram?
08:15Uh, yes?
08:16So none of us will remember any of today?
08:18That's right.
08:20Good.
08:22Isabella!
08:23Unfortunately, we'll probably never find out what it was Phineas wanted to say before he was cut off.
08:29Isabella seizes him in another kiss, in much the same fashion at the end of the Star Wars episode.
08:35Phineas's reaction is just the cherry on top.
08:39Hey, farm boy!
08:40We're not related, are we?
08:42Oh, no, no, not a chance.
08:43I only have just the one sister.
08:46Good.
08:47Mwah!
08:48Number two, the Moodulator fiasco.
08:51Kim Possible.
08:53Emotion sickness might just be one of the best episodes in the whole series.
08:57Shego and Kim's emotions accidentally become controlled by devices in Ron and Drakken's possessions.
09:03This, as you can imagine, makes for tons of quirky antics and funny outbursts.
09:08When the emotion gets stuck on love, we get to see Kim pursue Ron.
09:12It's the Big Middleton Days Festival, and I don't have a date.
09:16Date?
09:17You want to go to the festival as my date?
09:19Oh, I thought you'd never ask.
09:21There's a particularly hilarious exchange at her locker where she coaxes Ron into asking her out and then full-on kisses him.
09:28But I...
09:31Hey, guys, I...
09:34Uh, um, bad time to call?
09:37They'd never kissed before this, so it completely throws us for a loop.
09:41While she's not really in control of her own actions here,
09:45this episode does feel like the testing grounds for what would later develop into a real romantic relationship between the two.

10:29Nothing pulls the unspoken passion out of you like a near-death experience.
10:33Harley sacrifices herself to save Ivy, but Ivy's not having any of that.
10:38She manages to rescue Harley in the nick of time, and the two make it back to safe ground panting and hugging.
10:44And then, all of a sudden, their lips are touching.
10:48It's a twist we didn't see coming, but one that makes perfect sense with their relationship trajectory.
10:53You know I love you.
10:55Bye, Ive.
10:56The writers were always building a Friends to Lovers, and watching it finally come to fruition was everything.
11:03Oh, hi.
11:05We did it.
11:09No!
