Basic Trope: A kiss that leaves the kissee unresponsive and uncomprehending to their surroundings.
- Straight: Alice is dazed and frozen after Bob kisses her.
- Exaggerated: Alice is left catatonic for 2 whole days after Bob kisses her.
- Downplayed: Alice is briefly stunned after Bob kisses her. To her credit, she clears her throat and resumes what she's doing after the two part.
- Justified:
- Alice is programmed to freeze for exactly 180 seconds whenever her lips touch with another person's.
- It was that good of a kiss.
- Inverted: Alice is frozen in place, but starts moving again when Bob kisses her.
- Subverted: ???
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: ???
- Averted: Kissing scenes are not present.
- Enforced: Alice wasn't meant to be frozen when kissed by Bob during a kissing scene, but the writers were ordered to add a comedic effect to the scene, so they made Alice experience a kiss-induced shock.
- Lampshaded: "Look Alice. I know you feel great when I kissed you, but are you just gonna stand there?"
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: A pickpocket steals Alice's wallet when she is dazed after being kissed by Bob.
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: "Everyone is talking about how funny Alice looks after getting kissed by Bob and standing there for an hour."
- Conversed: "Why is this character standing there after being kissed?"
