This week's episode of 'Bob Hearts Abishola' was the fall finale for the first season on CBS. The freshman comedy will return with new episodes in January 2020. However, the show did not go on its long break without a gift for viewers -- Bob and Abishola's first kiss.

It all started with Kemi slyly asking Abishola if she can set up Chukwuemeka -- Abishola's former suitor from Nigeria who is a pharmacist -- with a friend of hers, then revealing that it is Kemi herself who wants to go out with Chukwuemeka. Abishola, of course, disagrees saying that she will be uncomfortable if Kemi goes out with him.

However, the two friends end up fighting and Kemi goes out with Chukwuemeka anyway. Unfortunately for her, Kemi finds Chukwuemeka boring during the date as he goes on and on about how Netflix or Hulu will make a movie about his life. Kemi calls him a "beautiful idiot" and we couldn't put it in a better way.

During this fight, Abishola goes to Bob's house -- as part of her part-time job to look after his mother who suffered from a stroke -- and tries to vent to him about her fight with Kemi. When Bob asks her the reason, she stops just before she mentions Chukwuemeka, and then to distract him, she kisses him -- leaving Bob speechless.

Fans were excited about this kiss and some of them are already preparing for a wedding to happen between the two characters. One fan wrote, "Now things are going in the right direction! Valentine's Day wedding, please. Who is with me? #BobHeartsAbishola." Another tweeted, "That scene with Bob and Abishola was way more than I expected no complaints whatsoever #BobHeartsAbishola."

But don't worry about Kemi and Abishola. When the episode ended, the two friends made up and carried on as if nothing had happened.

'Bob Hearts' Abishola' will return with new episodes on January 6th, 2020.
