It’s the Thought (and the Effort) That Counts
In the first Bob’s Burgers Valentine’s Day episode—season three, episode 13, “My Fuzzy Valentine”—Bob realizes Linda has grown weary of his annual habit of lazily creating something into a heart shape (a pancake, a burger, a drawing on a foggy mirror) and calling it an expression of his love. With the kids goading him on, he sets out on a wild hunt to find a present that will wow her… only to realize that Linda doesn’t really care about what he gets her.Instead, she’s much more charmed by the idea of him exerting effort to make her happy.
