Good Omens S2 good ending: a random pedestrian trips and breaks their leg right as the Metatron is leading Aziraphale out of the bookshop for their little talk. Aziraphale immediately switches into Good Citizen mode and is like "I'm so sorry, I'll just be a moment, you know I was heaven's representative on earth for 6000 years and I still feel it's my duty to do good wherever I see the chance-"
Between healing the leg with a miracle, helping the person into the coffeeshop to recover, calling a friend to come pick them up, ordering them a restorative warm beverage... he's gone a while. The Metatron gets impatient and is finally like "fuck this. Hey Muriel, I need an archangel, you're getting promoted," and they take off for heaven long before Aziraphale's done being a goodie-two-shoes.
He wanders back into the bookshop, confused, and gets hit with the full force of Crowley’s "I want to spend eternity with you let's run away together," speech. He counters with "I want to spend eternity with you too but can't we do that here on earth?" and then no one sees them for a week because they're too busy making out on every piece of furniture in the shop.
(Meanwhile, Muriel is so worried about Doing The Job Properly that they inadvertently drown heaven in an avalanche of red tape and regulations. They never manage to start the second coming because no one can find form B7, which apparently needs to be signed off on before a resurrection can be performed on any savior, prophet, or Son of God.)
