[[caption-width-right:300:''"You telling me you had feelings for me was all I wanted to hear and... I was so caught up in trying to do the right thing, I lost track of what that actually is. It's you. It's always been you. I love you, Maeve."'']]

* The Groff family gradually come back together. Mark and Maureen admit they still love each other. Mark also listens to Adam's issues and tries to be a gentler parent. He then hugs his son in a way that shows without a doubt how much love is in his heart. Their collective arc ends with the three of them sitting in front of the television set, finally at ease.

* After the long-distance relationship proves to be detrimental to their long-distance relationship, followed by the death of Erin, a disastrous attempt at a first date followed by sex and a dinner date at the Milburn home that goes awry, Maeve and Otis finally consumate their love. In this moment of intimacy, Otis was finally able to overcome his anxieties about sex and Maeve was able to rediscover her ambition. While it sucks that they broke up as soon as they'd done the deed, it's clear that they'd healed each other.

* As the series ends, Otis still hasn't heard back from Maeve, but on his nightstand he finds Maeve wrote him a letter thanking him for helping her come out of her shell. Meanwhile, Maeve took one of Otis' trademark stripy shirts with her to the U.S. If fate would only allow it (and Eric has already witnessed as much), Otis and Maeve will eventually seek each other out once more.

* [[spoiler:In season 3, Ruby is shown to have genuine romantic feelings for Otis and is also shown to be caring towards her father. It’s nice to see her act this way rather than the one-dimensional AlphaBitch. She even tells Otis that she loves him!]]
* [[spoiler:Anwar and Olivia comforting Ruby after she breaks up with Otis.]]
* [[spoiler:Having been humbled by losing his job, being unable to find another, living with his older brother, and misinterpreting a gesture of friendliness from Maureen as a desire to get back together, Groff actually talks to Jean and starts to work out some of his issues - namely, that his father and older brother bullied him relentlessly as a child, and whenever Groff got upset, his father would tell him that RealMenDontCry, which has resulted in him never expressing sadness or experiencing joy as an adult.]] Jean advises him to find something that does make him happy, and he does so - by cooking, something his mother (whom he loved dearly and was the only family member who was kind to him) loved doing.
* [[spoiler:Otis and Maeve finally reconciling and starting a relationship near the end of season 3.]] Even if they have to put things on hold shortly afterward, their relationship is in a better state than it's been in a long time.

'''Hope:''' Yeah. ''[sob]'' It's very hard. ''[sob]'' But thank you.

* Eric managing to get over his assault and once again openly embrace his sense of style at the school dance. Then he bumps into Otis, and they rekindle their friendship by sharing a dance. Even more astoundingly, the entire school watches on and seems rather charmed by it.

* Jackson finally clearing the air with his mother and telling her in no uncertain terms that he will always think of her as his real mom.

* Maureen comforting Adam after he comes out to her and tells her that he and Eric Broke up. She had learned of their relationship from Aimee earlier that day and asked Adam in an attempt to get him to bring him around so she could get to know the boy that she heard had made her son happier.

* Otis listens to Hope and gives an amazingly empathetic, affirming, and validating response. Made extra heartwarming by Jean overhearing him, because it's exactly the sort of thing she might have said. No, he's not qualified to be a real therapist, but Otis clearly is gifted in that realm.

* Pretty much everything about Aimee and Maeve's friendship. [[OddFriendship The two of them could not be more different]] yet they are best friends. Maeve is [[MoralityPet noticeably more patient with Aimee]] than most people she interacts with. Aimee is shown to be one of the few people who treat Maeve with respect, never once joining in when the untouchables bully her. This ultimately culminates in her ditching her popular friends for Maeve at the end of season 1, and the friendship only grows stronger throughout the second season.

* Miss Sands attending Adam’s dog training competition and cheering him on with his mother as he performs and gets an honourable mention. What’s more heartwarming is that she gets to see herself proven right that Adam is truly exceptional at something he is passionate about.

--> '''Abeo:''' Maybe I have a lot to learn from my brave son.

--> '''Otis:''' Look, sometimes the people we love don't like us back. It's painful, but there's nothing you can do about it.
--> '''Liam:''' You don't understand.
--> '''Otis:''' I do. I do understand. I know what it's like when someone doesn't feel the same way about you, it's...someone you can't stop thinking about. It hurts. But, you can't make people like you.
--> '''Liam:''' I don't like her. I love her.
--> '''Otis:''' I know. But love isn't about [[GrandRomanticGesture grand gestures]], or the moon and the stars. It's just dumb luck. And sometimes, you meet someone who feels the same way. And then sometimes, you're unlucky. But one day, you're gonna meet someone who appreciates you for who you are. I mean, there's seven billion people on the planet. I know one of them is gonna climb up on the moon for you.
--> '''Liam:''' ''(cheering up)'' Really?
--> '''Otis:''' [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre Yeah, you're brilliant! You're very dedicated. You're gonna make someone very happy one day.]] [...] And it won't happen if you fall off a moon and die.
