I am a little high

Imagine a romcom in which, during the climax, one of the leads needs to get somewhere desperately but they run out of gas. The other lead does a grand romantic gesture by buying them gas

If the one lead is on the way to another lead during the plot peak, by definition, the grand gesture is not going be to buy them gas. It could be a legit meet cute. Or something a side character does to ensure they find their romantic partner. 😉
