Slap-Slap-Kiss: Dutch and Kay's first romantic interaction happens this way. When they discuss their situation, he makes it clear that he's determined to find out all the details, while she just wants to let it go. They're arguing about this and she's slapping and shoving him when he abruptly grabs and kisses her, shocking both of them.

Romancing the Widow: Both Dutch and Kay do this to each other. The fact that their late spouses had an affair with each other certainly adds an awkward subtext.
