Line 1:

Two characters kiss due to the influence of mind-altering [[Applied Phlebotinum]] - or just plain ol' mind-altering substances like
This affliction usually strikes characters (a) who would never kiss when they're both sane, (b) whom fans have been dying to see kiss for many a season, or both. The trope's potential lies in the fact that the couple's [[Shipping|shippers]] can [[Squee]], and everyone else can brush it off with, "[[It Doesn't Mean Anything|It wasn't real]]."
Line 10:
== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water]]'': Happens between the two teenage leads, thanks to an [[Intoxication Ensues]] situation with a handful of mushrooms. It doesn't help resolve the [[Will They or Won't They?]]
* ''[[Living Game]]'': Izumi and Raizo finally break through the sexual tension after some late-night boozing at the corporate party.
* ''[[Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch]]'' had an episode where Lucia was in possession of a mood-altering device that took control of her and made her kiss Kaito, then pass out. In the corresponding manga chapter, she wasn't misusing [[Applied Phlebotinum]], she was just drunk.
** From [[G-Rated Drug|''cola''!]]
* ''[[Ranma ½]]'': In an early episode, Ranma's [[Unstoppable Rage|"Cat-fu"]] is revealed to be calmed by laying on Akane's lap, purring like a cat. The first time this happens he gives her a little kiss on the cheek (acting like an affectionate cat). Embarrassed, she gives him the [[Megaton Punch]].
** Once, after being snagged by a Fishing Rod of Love, Ranma fell under a spell that made him fall in love with [[The Rival|Ryoga]]. As a girl, Ranma would then kiss him lovingly on the
* Usagi's [[First Kiss]] in ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' was under the influence. Which can leave a bitter taste in one's mouth towards Mamoru's action in taking advantage of her.
** It left a bitter taste in ''Mamoru's'' mouth when, after a [[First Kiss]]-themed episode, they were discussing theirs, and he realised he was remembering an earlier occasion than she was.
Line 24:
* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' has a rather interesting example in which [[Shrinking Violet|Nodoka]] asks Negi for a kiss...while they're in an area filled with the power of [[The World Tree]]. The magic turns Negi into a [[Determinator]] who ''will'' get a kiss from somebody. {{spoiler|He ends up kissing Asuna, almost suffocating her in the process, and goes back to normal afterwards with no memory of the event. Asuna [[Let Us Never Speak of This Again|swears everyone who saw the incident to silence]] }}.
* The [[Girls Love]] [[Manga]], ''[[Girl Friends]]'' uses this. The central couple gets their first kiss when Mari drunkenly kisses a [[Dude, She's Like, in a Coma|drunkenly passed out]] Akko. Also their [[Les Yay|two female friends]], Sugi and Tamamin sometimes make out when drunk.
* In one of ''[[Kyo Kara Maoh!|Kyo Kara Maoh]]'''s [[OVA
* In the second season of ''[[Strike Witches]]'', Mio kisses Minna (presumably with tongue, if the sound she made while doing so is anything to go by) after getting plastered from a huge jug of wine. Not exactly how we expected it would go from a [[Beach Episode]].
* It goes a lot further than kissing in ''[[Corsair]]'' when Canale is drugged with a powerful aphrodisiac and Ayace first saves him from the person who drugged him and then [[What the Hell, Hero?|decides to take advantage himself]], despite never showing any interest in him before. Being a [[Boys Love|BL]] manga though, the relationship continues even after Ayace can no longer use the aphrodisiac as an excuse.
Line 33:
* At the start of ''[[Scott Pilgrim]]'' volume 4, Kim and Knives get wasted and make out, much to Scott's horror.
* In ''Amazing [[Spider-Man]]'' issue 601, Peter Parker wakes up in bed, naked, next to his roommate Michelle (equally naked). They apparently had sex after Parker had one too many at his Aunt May's wedding. It's later explained that, as a gag, Michelle kept filling his glass with cider when Peter wasn't looking, so he [[Wall Banger

* ''[[Star Trek]]'': Sadistic and bored aliens with psychokinetic powers, which allow them to control people's movements, force Spock and Nurse Chapel, as well as Kirk and Uhura, to kiss for their amusement. It freaks them all out, but a kiss between a black woman and a white man, no matter how fake it looked, freaked out the [[Media Watchdogs]] of the time even more. According to the cast, in response to the Watchdogs, the show did some takes without the interracial kiss, but William Shatner wanted it in, and would deliberately screw up every take without
** The scene between Kirk and Uhura is often cited as the first interracial kiss on American TV. It is presented as a milestone, but it was a forced kiss, which causes some people to wonder how much of a "milestone" it really is.
*** Right from the start Gene Roddenberry wanted the Kirk/Uhura kiss to be a willing one, but the [[Executive Meddling|network put the kibosh on that one]] in short order. The alien mind control element was put into the script as a compromise.
Line 63:
* ''[[Smallville]]'':
** To prove his mind control powers, the [[Monster of the Week|meteor-freak of the week]] makes Chloe kiss Clark.
** Also, every single episode that involves Red Kryptonite. Thankfully, almost everyone Clark kisses sufferes [[Easy Amnesia]] when the phlebotinum wears off. This sometimes reaches ludicrous
** Later, Maxima and Zatanna used [[Psychic Powers]] and magic, respectively, to force Clark to kiss them.
** Enchanted champagne causes this between Emil and Tess, too. Though theirs [[Home Porn Movie|goes a lot farther]].
Line 73:
** "Something Blue": Due to a botched spell by Willow, Buffy plans a marriage with Spike; the two act like lovebirds for the majority of the episode.
** "Tabula Rasa": Their memories wiped, Anya and Giles believe themselves engaged; the spell wears off during a sweeping dip kiss.
** "Once More With Feeling": A second case of Buffy and Spike
** "I Only Have Eyes For You": Buffy and Angelus are possessed by the ghosts of two dead lovers and made to kiss.
* ''[[Angel]]'' did this too, of course. In "Life Of The Party," Angel and Eve have sex thanks to an accidental magical incident. There's some [[Lampshade Hanging]] at the end, as Angel begins to explain, but Eve flatly points out that it isn't the first time she had sex under a mystical influence.
** Angel & Cordelia were possessed by spirits and ''almost'' had sex in "Waiting in the Wings" (you know, the one with [[Summer Glau]] in it?).
* ''[[Scrubs]]'' had a kiss between J.D. and Carla in season 4. Both were drunk and the morning after exchange was hilarious:
{{quote|
'''Elliot:''' What's going on?
'''JD:''' Nothing!
'''Carla:''' JD and I kissed!
'''JD:''' Carla!
'''Elliot:''' What, like a friend kiss?
'''JD:''' Yes...
'''Carla:''' ''No!''
'''JD:''' CARLA! YOU'RE KILLING ME! }}
** The whole next episode dealt with the backlash from Turk (Carla's husband) and it was a major plot point about their marriage being in trouble.
Line 106:
* In ''[[Glee]]'', Blaine (who is gay) and Rachel kiss while they are both playing a drunken game of spin the bottle.
* Does "Blaming it on the Influence" count? If so, we have ''[[Skins]]'': [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|Naomi and Emily]] have danced around each other for the entire season. They are at a party, both being three sheets into the wind.
{{quote|
'''Emily:''' [Completely mesmerized by her] Anything. Just give me a fucking... Just.. Just give me a... [leans over and kisses her. Naomi shows absolutely no resistance]
'''Naomi:''' Oh... [her denial catches up with her libido] It's only the drugs, right?
'''Emily:''' ... Sure.
[The two start to make out like crazy.] }}

Line 138:
* Happened in an episode of ''[[Jimmy Neutron]]'' where everyone fell absurdly in love with the first thing they saw. Even though it was temporary, moments that generally are considered as the decline of the series.
* In an episode of ''[[Jonny Quest: The Real Adventures|The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest]]'' Jonny and Jessie get possessed by the ghosts of two lovers who murdered each other over a jealous spat. Hadji and another character convince the spirits to literally kiss and make up... [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXix3MHTx-Q&feature=related while still in Jonny and Jessie's bodies]. There's a brief awkward moment between the two after, but is passes fairly quickly. Jessie even teases Jonny about it later in the episode.
* Happens a few times in ''[[The Fairly
** The chapter book ''Token Wishes'' also has Tootie using one of Timmy's wish tokens to make him kiss her.
