"I dumped her! Make sure you tell people that."

As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.

Who said a series as crass as this one can't have upsetting moments?

  • Jay discovering that his dog, Benji, has been put down as a result of his claims that he's been shitting in the house. Even though he'd lied about that, it's hard not to feel sorry for him. It even gets a Call-Back in the final episode, when he chooses the dog while playing Monopoly.
  • The season two finale:
    • Jay getting dumped at the end of Season 2.
    • Carli telling Simon that she's back with Tom after kissing him after they studied together. Especially since Si went to the effort of making her a CD.
  • Charlotte finally tells Will that she wishes she had a guy like him, as long as it isn't actually him. Most guys can relate all too well.
  • In a rare moment of weakness, Simon timidly asks his dad if everything is going to be alright. This was during talks of marriage difficulties between his parents.
  • After Will makes a pretty tasteless joke regarding Jay's breakup, Jay actually shuts up and becomes surprisingly somber and upset, even quietly answering "Yeah, I'm good" in response to Neil asking if he's alright. Even Neil and Simon tell Will to apologize for a clearly insensitive comment regarding something that clearly distressed Jay.
  • Simon revealing to Jay in the first movie that he's going to University. You can tell Jay is heartbroken that Simon won't be around much anymore.
