** After being thrown under the bus by [[BestFriend Morgana]] at the final eight, Frankie gets ''furious'', and delivers a massive TheReasonYouSuckSpeech directed at both Morgana and Scott (who also was okay with throwing Frankie under the bus). With Scott, it's more him calling out for being a jerk and not taking responsibility for his shortcomings, but with Morgana it's far more personal, saying she has no social skills, when Frankie himself has none. It's hypocritical, but it's clear that Frankie was genuinely hurt by this, and based on Morgana's expression, she also felt awful about it.
** Later on, Frankie finally talks about why he went to prison. After surviving a stabbing during a fight, he legitimately tried to go straight, only for him to discover text messages from a family friend trying to [[PaedoHunt groom his young cousin]]. After assaulting him, Frankie wound up being sent to jail due to his father withholding evidence, and even his dad ''[[FridgeHorror keeping the cousin around the family friend]]''. While in prison, he learned that his mother died, and believed she died thinking he was never going to change. After getting out, he revealed that his time in prison left him incredibly depressed and socially stunted, resulting in him [[FriendsWithBenefits having several shallow hookups]] and possibly contemplating suicide. To add onto this, he admitted he had not had contact with anyone in his family, including his cousin, for ''years''.

* Richard's elimination. In the episodes leading up to it, he had a genuine change of heart when it came his previously negative opinion of the red team, and legitimately enjoyed working with them. When his performance started to slip, he wound up confiding in Rohan about how he lost his wife and was on the show to make her proud. The heart-breaking moment comes in when it becomes clear that Rohan gave [[NoSympathy no care for his past]], and was only planning on using Richard as a scapegoat. Despite the out-of-server shenanigans, Richard fell right into Rohan's trap, and wound up paying the price for it.

Even worse was that compared to everyone else that Rohan had screwed over, [[ForTheEvulz there was no real reason for him to do it]], he just did it for the hell of it.

* Saige's elimination. She was insanely well-liked liked by most of her fellow contestants, and along with her passionate and strong start, she seemed to be destined for great things. However, she ended up going through a spiral, only managing to avoid nomination due to other chefs failing harder and her strong links on the team. Unfortunately for her, her luck would run out at the final nine, where after another poor performance, she was booted.
** Right before she left, she was given a fond farewell and a hug from her two closest friends in Marge and Philip.

Despite the Roleplay being mostly light-hearted and rather hilarious at points, there are times when some truly tear-jerking moments happen.
!!Season 1
* Without a doubt, Jake's elimination. While he was not the greatest chef, he was very well liked by not only his fellow competitors, but fans as well due to being a genuine NiceGuy on top of being one of the best early examples of UnderestimatingBadassery. After he crashed on the fish station however, Jake, [[ResignedToTheCall knowing that he was boned]], seemed to not even bother trying to convince others to put up Dee and Elise instead, accepting his fate.
** Just the fact that everyone else seemed genuinely reluctant to even nominate Jake despite his awful performance just shows how much they liked him.
** To add onto this, when Shane was set to announce the nominees, while he had no problem nominating Dee, a chef he had worked with throughout the majority of the competition, he noticeably hesitated choosing Jake.
** The fact that ''[[JerkAss DEE]]'' of all people tried to save Jake without any sort of care for himself shows how much Jake meant to him.
!!Season 2
* Ewan's elimination. Throughout the season he had been steadily gaining popularity for being a mentor figure for both Craig and Danny, as well as being a genuine threat against [[HateSink Jangue]]. However, after being injured, he was taken out of the competition, leaving Danny with no allies. Thankfully for Ewan, he got a second chance in All-Stars.
!!Season 3
* Brynn's elimination. While she started out a bit rough, she started to gain much more ground and popularity with her well-received ShipTease and eventual romance with Pory. After she crashed on charity, she gave one of the most heart-felt speeches in the roleplay's history, but it wasn't even enough to save her.
* Speaking of which, Pory's elimination the following episode. Outside of a few hiccups, he easily seemed like a front-runner to win, and his relationship with Brynn helped propel to becoming one of the most popular chefs of the season. Seeing him start to mess-up and seemingly go through a HeroicBSOD as a result of this just hurts to watch, especially since at the start, he won the first individual challenge of the season, only to be ejected later that episode.
!!Season 7
* DJ's backstory, where he reveals that due to his parents not supporting his dreams of becoming a chef, they completely abandoned him, to the extent that his parents didn't even bother showing up for the family reunion. Thankfully, DJ winning in the end made this worth it.
* Just the entire dissolution of DJ's and Rohan's friendship. Despite Rohan's uptight attitude and later jerkishness, he did genuinely consider DJ a friend and someone he would be absolutely okay with losing to. When his manipulations started to add up, DJ started to seriously wonder if their friendship was even legitimate, and when Rohan failed to give him a straight answer, he cut him off. Thankfully, they made up by the finale.
