Charlie Brown eagerly awaits all the valentines that he is sure to receive. Will a briefcase be enough to hold them all? Linus buys a huge box of chocolates for his teacher, Miss Othmar, on whom he has a crush. Sally sees him making the purchase and mistakenly believes the chocolates are for her. A frustrated Lucy smashes Schroeder's piano. Is he sure he wants to risk losing her?

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: As always. Charlie Brown doesn't get a valentine from anyone, least of all the Little Red-Haired Girl. Sally doesn't get any attention from Linus, who is pining hopelessly for Miss Othmar instead. Lucy continues to get nowhere with Schroeder.
* TheCameo: Peppermint Patty and Marcie appear in crowd shots, but don't have any lines and are never referred to. Interesting that apparently neither of them sent Charlie Brown a valentine, considering they canonically have crushes on him.
* CupidsArrow: In the opening, Snoopy dresses up as Cupid and tries to hit Charlie Brown with suction darts.
