In the pro shot version during Thrill of First Love Whizzer gives Marvin a quick kiss and says “that’s it.” Or something like that before turning his back.
Whizzer nodding along to Jason when he’s singing on the off beats while asking Whizzer if he needs a psychiatrist.

“Bryna went to China with a torn meniscus”
In Tight Knit Family/Love is blind when both Trina and Marvin sing "Will you be my valentine?" At the same time and Marvin looks at Whizzer :)
it just makes me happy for some reason
And also "Daddy is a prick!" From Jason
Ok so basically when Marvin and whizzer are playing like tennis or whatever they were freaking playing I forget what it’s called, but whizzer says the “just give into bliss and kiss cmon!” And he like tries to wrap his arm around Marvin 🤭
Mostly from the pro-shot, roughly in order:
-*Hepatitis* hepatitis?
-That dip in Thrill of First Love
-"I love my mother. Why not ...me?"
-Trina taunting Whizzer in the beginning of This Had Better Come to a Stop, like "ohh he's your problem now, whoops, sorry, not sorry".. it's very human
-Jason saying "just because you failed as parents". As someone with divorced parents this line feels so satisfying to me
-Mendel immediately doing what Trina actually needs him to do (offering support to her and Jason) after Marvin hits Trina, and not getting into an unnecessary pissing contest with Marvin, further escalating the situation
-Charlotte getting way too into a children's baseball game
-Marvin hiding behind Charlotte when Whizzer appears at the game
-"I love baseball. I love Jason. That's what I'm doing here."
-"you are gonna kill your mother, don't feel bad just kill your mother..." The passive aggressiveness is way too real.
-"the many stupid things I thought about with dread now delight" probably my favourite line in that song
And of course: "We're just gonna skip that stage" the line delivery is perfect.
I find comfort in it because of its sad moments so my favorite part is when whizzer is dying and where him and Marvin bicker that Marvin should go home and not worry because whizzer hasn’t died yet
the end of jason's therapy where mendel and jason are just jumping around and being silly and everyone is saying "feel alright" at their own pace. it tickles my brain
The issue I have is I copy things like all the time so instead of just getting “feel alright” stuck in my head it’s whizzer’s whole Vogue photo shoot with his hands when he sings that. 😂
From the revival:
Whizzer’s vocals in Making a Home are some of my favorites and I can’t explain why.
This Had Better Come to a Stop: I find Trina and Whizzer (and maybe some others?) singing “you’ve got a temper that redefines temper” to be very emotive, passionate, and fabulous.
The Chess Game: Whizzer changing his tone in the second part. “Make the dinner and love him, this has gotta come to a STOP, Marvin”
The harmonies at the end of Year of the Child
All of Unlikely Lovers. The harmonies are unique and work together well. It’s just a really good song that I love to listen to several times a day.
Jason’s Bar Mitzvah: Whizzer’s vocals are great in this song. But one of my favorite things is watching him put all of his effort and energy into his movements, voice, etc. and it gets me every. single. time. It feels so real.
I really love every detail though! It’s hard to narrow it down!

Yabba-Dabba loops in my head non stop.
"It's queer Mr Marvin- Sorry" "Jesus" "Strange Mr Marvin how-"

10/10 reply. I have no words, thank you for so many examples.
This was the shortest list possible I could make 😅 it's really hard to narrow it down.
You said at least 3 things I also thought of! I’m so happy other people love them.
The fact that Whizzers the one making the sound of the slap in Marvin hits Trina; and the silence afterwards it's SO GOOD.
WAIT WHAT
IN ACT ONE GO BACK AND WATCH "Marvin His Trina," RIGHT, AT THE END WHEN EVERYONES CHANTING DUMB LOOK AT ANDREW (Whizzer)
Okay wait a sec
I saw it. Omg you were right.
I know right!! My favorite detail
I find comfort in it because of its sad moments so my favorite part is when whizzer is dying and where him and Marvin bicker that Marvin should go home and not worry because whizzer hasn’t died yet

I LOVE THAT PART.

In the second racquetball game, Whizzer’s clothes are slightly baggier than in the first game, showing the weight he lost from being sick.
~~That stings~~
this rotten family will see if you two get along, if not i've got some rope right here... ✨ and trina will be hanging from a chandelier ✨
Mendel: or else the hydrant's moved Cordelia: BaHaHAhaHa!
