* In a meta sense, the fact that Trey's daughter Boogie Parker got to work alongside her dad at his job by voicing Menorah Cartman and Heather Williams, instead of just filling in a few lines for Ike here and there when they need a toddler voice.


* Jimmy kept his Late Night With Jimmy show in the good timeline, except now he doesn't need to neuter his routine to stay politically correct. Even PC Principal didn't show the least bit of outrage over his joke about [[AcceptableTargets bisexual Canadians]], proving the executives in the bad future wrong about Jimmy's comedy style.

* Kenny being alive and well in the new timeline is heartwarming in itself, but there's also some FridgeLogic to it that makes his survival even ''more'' heartwarming: the reason why Kenny died for good to begin with is because his mother hit menopause, meaning she was no longer capable of giving birth to him again should he die. Kenny's mom is about 65 years old in the Future timeline, and most women hit menopause around around age 50, meaning that Kenny, on top of being a wealthy Nobel-winning scientist, hasn't died a single time in the last 15-20 years. He may be the spawn of Cthulhu, but it seems that the universe finally [[ThrowTheDogABone cut the poor guy some slack]].

* Near the end of the special with some help from their future selves, the four boys all forgive each other and decide to go back to being friends. We also see the rest of the town decide to stop holding grudges against each other, understanding that the pandemic had been hard and stressful on everyone. Kelly Clarkson's "I forgive you" plays over it all, and forgiving each other is what ultimately leads to the future being better.
