Something I just noticed is that this show did the "annoying kid constantly asking "Why?" trope" very well. How people usually play this trope is that the kid simply keeps asking "Why" either until it stops making sense to ask it or until the adult (or annoyed person in question) just stops paying attention. Here Richard keeps asking "Why?" either because he doesn't understand her situation or her reasons basically don't amount to anything than a "Because" in return until she gives an answer with any amount of substance (aside from the fact that she's late but details). It's very childlike yet strangely mature.

At first Nicole and Richard seem to be your average Strict Angry Mother and Goofy Childish Father in a Cartoon Family. However, this episode showed that their relationship is so much more than meets the eye. Despite their differences, they love eachother , and were happy to be with each other during their rough childhoods. They have to be one of the best written couples in Cartoon history.

It’s an incredibly great episode. As a kid, I always wondered from the very first episode of Gumball why Nicole would choose Richard, which would puzzle me more so as I watched more episodes in season one when I was a kid. Then, I grew up learning about the nuances of people’s preferences of life, whether choosing a certain person or career. This episode highlights what Nicole valued most in life and what she saw in Richard that drew her to him. An amazing perspective of romantic preference simply, yet perfectly portrayed in a children’s cartoon

Best episode in the show, no contest. The Shell may be touching and The Faith may be uplifting, but this episode manages to portray a couple's struggles better than any other animated show I've ever seen. Early on in the show, you wonder why Nicole puts up with all of Richard's antics. They seem like just your run-of-the-mill sitcom couples (Dopey Dad, Logical Mom). However, this episode paints a clear picture as to why Nicole hasn't left Richard and it's the best representation of an animated married couple since Up and Bob's Burgers. More kids shows need to have episodes like this. Not every cartoon needs to have serious arcs or season long mysteries. Sometimes, slice of life is all you need.

When I saw this episode it almost made me cry cus it reminds me of how I met my husband and our life together so far. My husband and I met through Facebook through an acquaintance with a common an interest. After a long time of talking and video chatting, etc, etc, we finally met in person thanks to the help of some of his friends he worked with. Which eventually lead to him moving to my state to live with me (I was still living with my mom at the time) and then we eventually moved to his state to live together in our own apartment. It's been such a wild ride together and while there are bumps we are always happy to have each other at the end of the day. He's my best friend at this point and someone I couldn't live without and someday we both hope to grow our family.

My favorite part of the episode, the bit that I wouldn't stop talking about even though no one I knew gave a crap, is that they show (in a series marketed to kids!) Nicole learning she's pregnant _before_ getting married. So many children are "whoopsies"/ were born less than 9 months after their parents anniversary/ etc. but for some reason we can never talk about that in children's media. I love it. (It also has the added benefit of showing how much a parent can love a child planned or otherwise.) Edit: Oh and of course 8:22 makes me laugh every time.

I always get chills when I watch this episode, especially the ending montage of Nicole and Richard. In the end I think the overall lesson to take away is everything happens for a reason and if you waist your life wondering "what if I did this differently, or said the right thing" you'll never get to enjoy living, so much so that you'll grow up and become either a successful monster like Nicole if she went to the Karate Tournament, or just a depressed, lonely person wondering where there life went by the time they reach 40 or 50. A truly philosophical episode indeed

This episode has continued to grow on me over the years as I’ve grown and my life has followed a similar path to this cartoon family. In a very eerie fashion my wife and I were drawn to one another when our families rejected our relationship and we’ve had to rely on each other. Everything else is tracking pretty accurately. The music from this episode is a masterpiece and the scenario and story it tells has been so impactful I think of it often when I hold my son in my arms. It sounds silly but I never knew you could make a family work on a shoestring budget as how I was raised led me to believe it was near impossible to create a healthy home without a long period of extreme frugality or support from family. I love my wife dearly and I never would have leapt into the abyss to attempt my wonderful life I have found with her if this exact episode didn’t inspire me to believe it could be done.
