Mollie is the het ship between Molly and Ollie from The Ghost and Molly McGee fandom.

Season Two
The New (Para)Normal

When Molly and Ollie first met, the Chens recently moved to Brighton as they became neighbors with the McGees. As the families introduced each other, Ollie learned about Molly's pamphlets for helping Brighton, saying that she gets him. Molly tried to help the Chens move in by carrying the boxes, but had difficulty. So Ollie decided to help her, which resulted in Molly blushing as she developed a crush for the boy.

On the next day, Ollie and the rest of his family joined the McGees for a barbecue. During the cookout, Molly and Ollie accidentally touched hands when they both reached for a bowl of chips, causing them to blush. Because of Darryl and June's interference with Heidi Hairylegs, Molly and Ollie decided to go inside. While inside, Ollie expressed his amazement on how Molly was able to rebuild Brighton's band shell and his passionate interest in helping the community by the word "engoodify" much to Molly's joy with the similar word like "enhappify". The two then shared the idea of the band shell can also be a theater for kids together, which led them to learn that they have much more in common and developing feelings for each other.

Molly then asked Ollie why he and his family came to Brighton as she intended to take him to her room. As Ollie explained that his family went on a road trip to visit haunted places in America, Molly thought Ollie was a fan of ghosts like her, but soon realized that he and the rest of his family were actually ghost hunters.

Book Marks the Sprite

As the two traveled across town, Ollie lost contact with the Story Sprite, believing that he let the people of Brighton down, especially Molly. Molly tried to convince him that ghosts aren't bad by listing examples of all the good things they ever did, including the fact she would be a friendly ghost as well. Despite knowing how positive Molly is, Ollie digressed, saying that ghosts are incapable of being nice and no one should suffer from it. Seeing Ollie's treatment to the people of Brighton compared to ghosts, Molly began to sing a song about him as ghosts shouldn't be a threat.

The two soon went to an ice cream shop, where Molly asked Ollie why he believes ghosts to be evil if they hadn't actually done anything harmful to him. That was then Ollie explained that the reason his family hunts ghosts was because one attacked his father, Ruben Chen, during his childhood.

As Molly learned that Ollie's way of bringing peace to the world is by getting rid of ghosts, she expressed disappointment as she believed that it would be impossible to change Ollie's mind. But hearing about Libby's experience from the Story Sprite, Molly learned that all she had to do is just make Ollie understand the ghosts.

When Scratch brings up Ollie, Molly blushes and tries to convince Scratch that Ollie is harmless.

During the song, Scratch tried to sabotage Ollie, but Molly's prevention led to one of them catching the attention of all the students, who began to see Molly and Ollie as a couple. When they are watching the show, Molly lays her head on Ollie's shoulder. The students came up to them and asked if they are official and come up with a couple name for them: Mollie.

Fanon
On AO3, Mollie has currently 8 fanfics and it is the most written ship for Ollie. For Molly it seems to be 5th most written ship for her.

A large subset of fans do not like this ship and prefer Mollibby or Molldrea, some fans think Ollie is boring and doesn't match Molly's personality, and others refuse to believe Molly is attracted to men due to her established friendships she had with Libby and Andrea in the first season, portraying Molly as either bisexual or using Ollie as a beard to cover up her feelings for Libby or Andrea. A few fans even theorize that Ollie is simply using Molly to get closer to Scratch and then capture him, which was disproven by his second appearance. One fringe theory even states that he is Molly's genderswapped counterpart from an alternate dimension that was destroyed, and he plans to kill and replace Molly. However, most think they have a lot of potential and could grow and develop. It is hoped Molly will either convince Ollie to love ghosts and stop hunting them or make him realize not all ghosts are bad and convince him to only hunt bad ghosts, the latter of which did eventually happen in Frightmares on Main Street. Many fans hope for more interactions with the pair in future episodes. Some people ship Mollie alongside Libbdrea.

Trivia
