A simple one here, but I like the parts of this show where the Japanese character 关谷 makes a mess of his Chinese (I know I have countless times before).

含笑九泉        han2xiao4jiu3quan2        rest happy in one's grave
兴高采烈        xing4gao1cai3lie4        happy and excited
心花怒放        xin1hua1nu4fang4        bursting with joy
一见钟情        yi1jain4zhong1qing2        fall in love at first sight
（起）绰号        chuo4hao4            (give) a nickname

For those who didn't get the joke at the end, P谷 sounds like 屁股 (bum).

（起）绰号 chuo4hao4 (give) a nickname
