* In ''Series/{{Friends}}'', when Ross attempts to kiss his attractive cousin after misreading her signals as flirtatious and she angrily demands an explanation, he spends an [[OverlyLongGag agonisingly long time]] trying to first think of something clever to say to relieve the tension, and then to think of anything to say at all.
