Discussing the Solar Opposites Valentine's Day Special, showrunner Josh Bycel noted that holiday specials are usually stand-alone episodes, with no plot or character development: "So we love the idea of [this one] tricking people into realizing like, ‘Oh my God, the end of the episode is actually the biggest thing that’s ever happened to these characters short of landing on Earth!"
Co-creator Mike McMahon adds: "it really changes the dynamic of the characters."

Spoiler alert: Korvo and Terry, have sex.
Solar Opposites is an animated comedy about a group of aliens from the doomed planet Schlorp who crash-land on Earth: team leader Korvo, the "let's do this by the books" micro-manager; the effervescent goofball Terry; their teenage replicants Yumyulack and Jesse, and the Pupa. Korvo and Terry find each other's habits annoying, and often argue about how assimilated they should become.
In the special, the group tries to order cold, wet tuna in a restaurant, only to discover that it's Valentine's Day, so only romantic dinners are available. Should they come back tomorrow, or use their alien science to eliminate romantic love from the world?
Terry asks: "Couldn't we love each other?"
No, all Schlorpians have is teammate affinity. But maybe that will be enough. They have to try.
Terry hates teammate affinity: "It's so annoying that I miss you uncontrollably when you leave the room."
Korvo agrees. He hates "the way it makes the prickly bumps on my arms stand up when you bend over to pick something up from the floor."
Um..guys, that's erotic and romantic desire.....
They get it on.
Terry going down on Korvo
Anal. Funny, Korvo was a bottom in an earlier episode.
