action

On Valentine's Day, the normal-sized Rudy Louise Belcher ( Kristen Schaal ) asks at school if she will be in the cafeteria during lunch, to which she says yes. Rudy then buys a bouquet of Liebes Wekraut from Zeke, whereupon Louise claims that he might be in love with her. At lunch, Rudy asks Louise to give the bouquet and a card to Chloe Barbash. Louise agrees and is initially relieved that Rudy is in love with someone else. Later, however, she becomes jealous of Chloe. When Rudy shows her the note he received from her, she realizes that Chloe is only using it to get the answers to a test. Louise confronts Chloe about this and tries to force her to kiss him. Chloe refuses, so Louise decides to meet Rudy after school. There she tells him that Chloe won't come because she is not in love with him, and she surprises him by kissing him on the mouth. Then she slaps him on the face and threatens him so that he won't tell anyone about the kiss.

Her sister Tina Belcher ( Dan Mintz ) suffers from diarrhea after winning a chilli contest with her siblings the night before. Therefore, she cannot take part in the “ sky kiss ” with Jimmy Pesto Jr. ( H. Jon Benjamin ) where they jump on a trampoline and kiss. According to her motto that nothing can stop love, she finds a pair of stilts . So she can stand on this and Jimmy jr. kiss while he is jumping on the trampoline. Meanwhile, Gene Belcher ( Eugene Mirman ) meets the Italian substitute cook Isabella and helps her make dark chocolate for her friend Francesco. In doing so, he discovered his love for this type of chocolate, which he had previously disliked.

Bob Belcher (H. Jon Benjamin) has no present for his wife Linda ( John Roberts ), so he and his regular customer Teddy ( Larry Murphy ) take a hip-hop dance class. Later, Bob, Teddy, their dance teacher Shelly and their son Flips Whitefudge dance hip hop in front of the restaurant as a present for Linda . While Bob and Teddy are in the dance studio, Ms. Selbo walks into the restaurant and tells Linda that she broke up with her boyfriend Martin. Linda thinks this happened shortly before, until Ms. Selbo makes it clear it has been a year and she watches her ex boyfriend who is in the restaurant across the street. Linda decides to bring Martin over so the two can talk, but when she returns with him, they see Ms. Selbo kissing another man.

reception

Alasdair Wilkins of the AV Club rated the episode an “A” and wrote: “[T] he sequence rewards Tina's and Jimmy Jr.'s now basically official romance with a damn good Valentine's Day kiss, giving Bob and Linda a sweet moment after the really silly one Hip-hop dance gift, lets some of the other lunatics in town get their own smooches ... oh yeah, just go there and make Louise and full-size Rudy a real, bang-out thing, something I've been asking for I started writing reviews of the show. ”About Louise and the normal-sized Rudy, he added that the“ show […] aroused curiosity about something between the two - at least in the sense that Louise was never on purpose Tried to kill or otherwise injure Rudy, which counts as a really sensitive spot by her standards - since her museum-exploring, train-robbing early days. Despite all of my jokes about it, the series never really suggested romance, which makes it even more impressive how quickly they've committed to the idea since then. The episode cleverly undermines Louise's expectations - and those of at least some viewers - by actually making Rudy into someone else, moving Louise away from weird, bad feelings like being drawn and love to much clearer, simpler emotions like jealousy and Anger moves. "

Indeed ... Bob won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program . It is the second Primetime Emmy Award in the series after the episode won Masel Tina in 2014.
