(Marlene's POV)
I sat in a corner in my habitat, tears pouring down my face. I was just too depressed to do anything right now. Not even the penguins could cheer me up.
I choked out a sob. No one ever liked me. No one would ever fall for me, no one had, oder ever would even KISS me.
I would always be alone... even in death...
"Marlene?" I heard a voice say.
I looked up and saw Kowalski, the brains of the penguins at the entrance of my habitat. I quickly wiped my tears, and took a breath.
"Hey Kowalski." I said.
"Are Du okay, Marlene?" He asked, his voice full of concern. "I was walking by, and I heard someone crying, and-"
"I'm fine, I'm just stressed right now."
"Why don't Du tell me about it?" Kowalski said.
"Fine." I said. "Nobody loves me."
Kowalski looked at me. He was obviously surprised that I confessed so fast.
"Marlene," Kowalski began. "That's not even close to being true. So many people Liebe you. The whole zoo loves you, I Liebe you-"
I looked at him shocked. Did Kowalski have a crush on me...?
"You Liebe me?" I asked.
"Yes, Marlene. Very much."
"Well, um... I Liebe Du too." I smiled.
Kowalski smiled at me. "Thanks. I appreciate it."
"You're very welcome."
We laughed for a little bit, then it was silent for a bit. He finally broke the ice.
"I Liebe you, Marlene." Kowalski said.
"I know, Du told me that." I said.
"Not in a friend way. I Liebe Du way Mehr than that."
I looked at him. "In a boyfriend-girlfriend way, Du mean?"
He stared at the ground, then at me. "Yes."
I thought about it for a bit. I turned to face him.
"Kowalski," I said, getting his attention.
He looked at me, and unexpectedly, I pulled him into a kiss. He was a little shocked at first, but fell right into it.
Oh my god, I thought. Kowalski and I are kissing! He's one of my best friends, but it feels so right. Maybe I really do Liebe him.
I let my thoughts wander off to the rest of the penguins. How would Skipper react to this?
Just my luck, Skipper just had to Zeigen up.
"Hoover Dam!" I heard him say. "Kowalski? Marlene?"
Kowalski and I broke the KISS and turned to Skipper.
"S-Skipper!" I exclaimed. "Um..."
"It's okay, Marlene." He said. "You don't have to explain. Let's go, Kowalski."
Skipper exited my habitat. Kowalski stood up, and turned to me.
"So, does this mean, we're..." He began.
"How about we meet same time tomorrow, and you'll see." I smiled.
He smiled. "I Liebe Du Marlene."
"I Liebe Du too, Kowalski."
As he left, I thought, Screw Skipper and his 'No room for feelings in the army' rule. Kowalski's different.
He loves me.

Everyone went crazy including Skipper and Rico. the lemurs cannot stop. Just then, Private saw his CD that he downloaded from the internet. "Kowalski, I got an idea."Private briefly explained and Kowalski found it interesting.
Meanwhile, everyone went to the HQ. Suddenly, Private and Kowalski started the music.
Private: My hot dog's dead..
My pizza's dead.
My cupcake is dead.
Kowalski: Oh, uh, my doughnut's dead. My burger's dead.
My milkshake is dead.
Finn: All of our Favorit foods
are totally dead.
They can not procreate in little Essen beds.
We'll eat them up
and turn them into stuff.
Kowalski: And we'll cry over their graves,
but ya can't cry enough...
Private and Kowalski: When Du miss someone Du Liebe Du can't cry enough.
Everyone stopped. The curse broke and everyone cheered for them even Skipper and Rico. Soon, they never forgot the Tag ever again.
