'''Original Air Date:''' July 11, 2003
When Billy, Mandy and Grim go to the beach, Grim falls in love with a gothic woman named Malaria.

In the following date, Grim demonstrates his supernatural powers while dancing and, as predicted, Malaria leaves in panic.

'''"Crushed"'''
'''Original Air Date:''' July 11, 2003
At the Endsville Elementary School, Irwin attempts to ask Mandy if she would like to go to the dance with him as his date at the 8:00 PM spring dance. Shivering with terror and anxiety, Irwin's glasses are shattered and blood drops drip out of his nose. Mandy crudely rejects Irwin's request and Billy loudly announces his new mute companion, whose name is unknown to all of them at the time.
Billy introduces his friend to Irwin and Mandy, who is stunned and astonished of herself, as her legs and trembling, her cheeks blushing, and her palms sweating. She begins to experience an unknown feeling to her: love. Mandy runs off in embarrassment and fear as Billy and Irwin try to think of a name for their new friend, in which Billy comes up with Piff. Mandy visits the school nurse who acts like a therapist. She explains to Mandy that she is experiencing love and that it is producing from her heart, the only road to internal happiness. After school, Billy, Piff, and Mandy head towards Billy's residence.
Piff quickly makes rivals with Grim and Mandy inquires that her heart must be cut out. Grim straps Mandy up and Mandy explains her dilemma and why she wants her heart gone. Grim quickly offers another method and brings out a table full of cosmetics. As Billy tries to feed Piff, Mandy gets both of the boy’s attention and flabbergasts them. Piff begins to experience Mandy's same emotions from earlier. As Piff tries to invite Mandy to the spring dance, he is dreadfully rejected (worse than Irwin) and punched in the face, losing a tooth and shattering his glasses, as Grim watches in joy, as payback for spitting in him.

* LoveAtFirstSight: One-sided. Mandy has this reaction to Piff. It frankly terrifies her.

'''"Love is Evol Spelled Backwards"'''
'''Original Air Date:''' July 11, 2003
It is Valentine's Day. Grim makes cards and Mandy decorates candy hearts while Harold and Gladys prepare for a weekend getaway and leave Aunt Sis in charge. While everyone else is in a romantic mood, Sis recounts the bad breakup she went through as a young girl and is in no hurry to repeat the experience.
However, an equally lonely Nergal has been observing Sis through his monitors. He arrives in his earth cruiser with a horde of Nergalings. Naturally, the trio assumes that he's here to raise hell again and prepare to fight him. Nergal ignores them in favor of Sis and asks her out on a date, to which she indifferently agrees. Mandy warns Billy that if the night goes well, he'll have a mortal enemy for an uncle. Billy immediately sets out to stop the love.
Nergal takes Sis to a romantic Mexican restaurant. Grim, posing as a waiter, places a cloche in front of Nergal, who opens it to find Billy brandishing a stick of celery. The attack is sadly spurned when Sis douses her nephew in ketchup. When the couple go on a boat ride, Grim suggests dumping a bucket of spiders over their heads as they pass under the bridge. Billy takes the bucket but is distracted by a ladybug and falls into the river.
Nergal takes Sis to Lover's Leap, an outlook point with a beautiful view of the city. He makes intentions known by literally offering his heart to Sis, who understandably rebuffs him. He then sees another man giving a diamond ring to his girlfriend and gets an idea. Being far away from the nearest jewelry store, Nergal fashions a ring from a nail, but manages to drop it. Above him, Billy makes one final attempt to sabotage the evening by sawing off a beehive. Nergal is attacked by the bees, but rather than ditching him for looking like a dork, Sis is impressed with his nimble 'dance moves' and happily accepts his marriage proposal. Nergal tenderly declares Billy his nephew before taking his bride home.
