* One of the first thing Tylor does when he has the chance is apologize to Roger for accusing him of being the mole, to which Roger [[EasilyForgiven forgives him]] since he completely understands, given on who his father was.
* Tylor and Val playing with Ben is broadcast all over Monstropolis, and monsters stop to watch the sweet display, bonding together over it. It goes a long way in getting them to come around over laugh energy, even Alistair Clawbottom, the old monster railing against it in "The C.R.E.E.P. Show".
** Of note is when Val tells Bernard's "fish and ships" joke and it finally gets a laugh.
** Stubby Lizzardo, the coach in "Field of Screams" sheds one SingleTear and says, "Home run, kid. Home run."
** This also inspires some Fear Co. employees to jump ship and join Monster's, Inc. like Skyler, plus it shows that Mike and Sulley are more than willing to allow even their competitors to join them too.
* A small one, but when Mike and Sulley come in and presents everyone with brand new Jokester cards, officially legitimizing their professions, Phlegm receives a copy of his very own card. From a struggling recruit scarer to a top class Jokester, Phlegm really came around.

* Despite leading to Tylor's quitting, the fact that Sulley and Mike knew Roger was in fact Waternoose's son and still willingly gave him a job is a nice aversion of the SinsOfTheFather road we always see. Sulley not only doesn't care, he defends him from Tylor when he accuses him, showing he thinks of him no less of a friend, like to all of his employees now.

* A minor one, but when Fritz says he will retiring to keep one of his friends from being fired, Tylor says he should be the one to be let go. Duncan quickly says not to sell himself short and will go easy on him as the new supervisor, in his own gruff and proud way Duncan basically told Tylor YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre.

!! Opening Doors
* As Val fills in for Tylor, she goes into a girl's door and, rather than just try to tell jokes or do slapstick, she sits down and talks to her first, getting to know her before playacting with her toys. Val's approach gets more laughs because she connects with the kids on a personal level, rather than just get shallow laughs.

** What's best is that when said rowdy fan insults Snore, Mike is quick to rush to her defense and be willing to fight a guy ''ten times his size'' in retaliation. He was way out of his league, but it's still cute that he'd go to any lengths to help her--a far cry from how he was so quick to try and rid himself of Boo early on in the movie.** Snore lets out a big [[BizarreBelching Bizarre Belch]] after eating a rot dog, much to the shock and disgust of the rowdy fan.

* Sulley is clearly having fun making Mike squirm over how he's doing the exact same things with Snore that he was angry at Sulley about for doing with Boo, but it's more touching how he knows that Mike really is a good guy deep down. The smile on his face when he sees Mike singing to Snore sells it.
* After a long day, Mike is finally able to get Snore back home, and puts her to sleep with a lullaby claiming he really doesn't care about her, when it's clear he really does, sweetly bidding her farewell and leaving her with the record-breaking baseball he got at the game.
* Throughout the whole episode, Val has been reminiscing about her time with Tylor at college--times of which he can't remember and is getting annoyed about being mentioned. He then finally learns why it's so important; Val remembers how Tylor was the only student at MU who noticed her with a simple question about if the desk she was sitting in for their History of Fear Class was taken. He then remembers right afterward that she responded with saying the desk was the best seat in the house, and she shared some of his favorite candy with him. She's so thrilled that he finally remembered that moment, allowing the two to grow closer as members of MIFT.

* Crossed with Tearjerker, but Sulley has a heart-to-heart with Tylor when the latter expresses nervousness about officially becoming a jokester, wishing that they were still doing Scream power because he ''knows'' he's good at that, and he's scared that his attempt at actually being a Jokester in the field won't work out because he's never prepared for it quite like he had for being a Scarer throughout college. Though he doesn't deny that it'd be easier if they were using Screams again, and that it's more secure than the experimental steps the company is taking with Laugh power, Sulley mournfully recounts to Tylor the time he [[MyGreatestFailure accidentally scared Boo]], noting that what hurt him most was what he saw of himself in her eyes when she was scared of him, realizing what he'd been doing to so many children. The point is made clear-- even if the whole world went back to Scream Power, Sulley still won't become a Scarer anymore, and instead, his focus on spreading Laugh Power as a new energy source is not only his way to keep his friends and colleagues in a job, but to make sure that no more kids get emotionally hurt by the monsters who're simply doing their jobs. The moment is capped off by a brief rendition of Boo's {{Leitmotif}} as Sulley remembers what he did, and underlines his declaration that Laugh Power is not only better than Scream, but that [[GoodFeelsGood it's the right thing to do]], no matter how difficult the job gets.
