* OhCrap:
** When Heffer decides to help out Rocko getting Melba's attention by publishing his love letter to Melba on the newspaper under ''Rocko's name'' publicly without him knowing, Rocko's newly-founded confidence crumbles as he panics from seeing Melba pick up the newspaper and then panics again after she has driven away with Dave.
** After Rocko forgives Heffer knowing that he was trying to help him and believes that Melba hasn't seen the ad from him yet, Heffer has this expression when it turns out he put signs outside his home with the words "LOVE ME MELBA" with the arrow pointing to Rocko's picture to get Melba's attention. Not wanting Rocko to see this, he turns down the invite to a restaurant and just play checkers with him instead.

* RageBreakingPoint: After Rocko's latest date from the dating show went wrong because Heffer filled in for the contestant, Rocko decides to just be confident enough to ask out Melba and not get Dave in the way... only for Heffer to announce he helped him by publishing a love letter to Melba in the newspaper under Rocko's name and he already panics from seeing her get the newspaper before driving away with Dave. As a result after Heffer tries to calm Rocko down, he snaps at Heffer by telling him he has enough of being a victim of his "dating schemes" and says that he wants him [[KickTheDog out of his life]]. This got Heffer in tears, causing Rocko to calm down and [[JerkassRealization take back what he said]] while assuring himself that the ad wasn't on front page.

* BaitAndSwitchSilhouette: On the ''Love Seat'' dating show, the audience participants end up choosing which female Rocko is going to go out with. A dead corpse chooses Date #3 (by simply falling on the buzzer), whom has the silhouette of a sexy human woman, complete with her slender arms on her HartmanHips. Rocko gets very aroused at the silhouette as the host describes her, but then the host concludes with "...your date, HEFFER!" To which "her" window lights up and the silhouette changes into Heffer's head from the neck up. Among seeing this, the [[WingdingEyes hearts in Rocko's eyes turn into flames]], and he deflates like a balloon in shock.
