* Building on the above--the entire audience, including several people viewing on television (Mr. Pinky and his staff among them), cheering and applauding when Corny announces that the show is "now and forever officially integrated." It proves that Velma was wrong--the people of Baltimore are not only fine with integration, they're actively for it.

* A small detail during “I Know Where I’ve Been”. As the march starts, Maybelle holds Seaweed’s hand. This is a subtle detail that indicates she’s not doing this protest for herself, but for her family in hope that they have a better future.

* Wilbur when he bailed Maybelle and her dancers out of jail along with Edna, knowing it would be a financial hit for a little while. A deleted scene shows exactly why Edna was arrested. The police officer was originally going to let her go, but then she realizes that he's being nice to her because she's white, while arresting the black women who were protesting. Edna is so angry at this that she insults the police officer until he gives in and arrests her as well.
* Only Amber undergoes a HeelFaceTurn: first eying a black dancer with interest, then [[GracefulLoser saying that she accepts her loss]], and is last seen, after smirking and shrugging at her still disgruntled mother, joining the dance and gleefully jumping into the arms of the black dancer.
* Wilbur's complete and utter devotion to Edna, who, though a BigBeautifulWoman, has an extreme lack of self-confidence and dresses in frumpy clothing. This is best seen in the 2007 film, which sees Velma trying to seduce Wilbur by putting on an ''extremely'' sexy red dress, visiting his joke shop and throwing herself at him, and singing a sexy version of "Big, Blonde and Beautiful." Wilbur not only remains totally unswayed, he actively tries to stop Velma with the various practical joke devices he has in the store. He later admits that his "heart beats only" for Edna. D'aww.
* The whole family dynamic between Wilbur, Edna and Tracy is an extended Moment of Heartwarming. While Edna is worried about Tracy early on in the movie, that worry stems from a deep love of her daughter, and she is also overjoyed when Tracy lands a spot on the Corny Collins Show. When Edna suggests that Tracy may need an agent to help deal with her newfound fame after Mr. Pinky offers Tracy a modeling gig for his plus-size line, Tracy convinces her mom to be her agent (claiming, "Who's going to look out for me better than my own mom?"), and urges Edna to break out of her seclusion and embrace life in the number "Welcome To The 60s".
** Wilbur supports his daughter unconditionally throughout the film. He encourages her to try out for the Corny Collins Show, and later when she vents her frustration against the studio for cancelling Negro Day, he advises her not to back down, saying "You can't wait for us old dogs. We need to learn new tricks from you." In "Timeless to Me", while mostly a love song between Wilbur and Edna, Wilbur also expresses pride in their daughter in the line, "And we got a kid who's blowing the lid of the Turnblad family tree!"
** The 1988 movie also shows the whole family dynamic between Wilbur, Edna and Tracy, after she gets in the Corny Collins show. Her family is really supportive of her all the way up to the end when she had to be freed from the reformatory to get her crown back from Amber in the Miss Auto Show '63.
