The episode starts with a view of Molly's tree house and later shows Molly, Penny, Teri, Leslie, Carmen, Carrie, and Masami in tree house watching boys, Gumball, Darwin, Banana Joe, and Tobias, attempting a stunt involving Gumball jumping off a ramp on a skateboard over a bus or van which ends with Gumball crashing into the van. Masami exclaims that it's lame and says they kiss boys instead. When the other girls become confused in unison, Masami questions them whether or not if they have boyfriends. Molly answers first by saying she has a boyfriend who is older than her and goes to high school. The others girls answer in the same manner, except that they make their 'boyfriends' even more older. After that, Penny responds by saying that she wishes she had a boyfriend, although she truly has eyes for Gumball. When Masami is asked if she has a boyfriend, she lies and says it is Darwin. The next day at school, Masami tries to prove to the other girls that Darwin is her boyfriend, by getting him to hold her notebook. Darwin confusedly holds it, making Gumball, Tobias and Banana Joe think that they are both in love. He says to the other boys that he'll hide forever. At lunchtime in the school cafeteria, Gumball spots Darwin hiding under the rails of the tray line, so the girls wouldn't see him. They saw him, so Gumball and Darwin put their lunch trays over their heads and walked around, because Gumball suggested "If you can't see them, they can't see you." Unfortunately, the boys end up at Masami's table. Masami attempts to hug Darwin, but they move to a "more private place" as Gumball as on the table too. Then Masami tells Darwin that they're going to kiss at the tree house. Gumball, taking advice from Rocky, tells Darwin to open up to Masami and break up with her. Upon hearing this Masami starts crying. Feeling guilty, Darwin says he'll do anything for her to stop crying including kissing her, Masami then says she'll see him at the tree house. Darwin, aggravated, tells Gumball that if he's going to help he needs to get to that tree house. Before leaving Banana Joe tells Gumball that if he doesn't do anything he will. Gumball goes to the tree house expecting to kiss Penny, Darwin is cornered by Masami, who is trying to kiss him. As Gumball is about to rescue him, Penny grabs his hand and the two are about to kiss. However, they miss because Banana Joe and Tobias chop down the tree. As the tree is about to fall, everyone but Gumball, Darwin,Penny and Masami escape. Gumball misses Penny and Masami gets out of the way. Gumball and Darwin, both with closed eyes and puckered lips, unawarely kiss each other. When the tree falls down, it crushes Banana Joe. After the crash Gumball and Darwin both comment on how great the kiss was with Gumball talking about Penny and Darwin talking about Masami. The two leave and Penny and Masami both look at each other with confused gazes. It ends with Banana Joe exclaiming 'Pals before gals!'
