* A minor one, but in "Holiday Heave Ho", Gorgious crying over his teddy getting destroyed when Etno and Stereo use it to test a mousetrap on Santa (who they mistake for a red blob trying to break in). However, it becomes heartwarming when Santa manages to deliver the aliens' presents through the chimney (which he had been unsuccessfully trying to do throughout the entire episode), [[BrickJoke with one of them being a new teddy for Gorgious]].

* In "Space Cruiser to the Rescue", the characters from Bud's favorite science-fiction series find themselves materialized inside the aliens' house. They eventually realize they're only cartoon characters after going through a series of disadvantages in the "real" world. It eventually comes to a point, where the two of them are staring sadly at the TV with Bud, and this exchange occurs:
-->'''Steve:''' I miss our world.
-->'''Barbara:''' ''(crying)'' So do I.
-->'''Bud:''' So do I.
** The sad thing is, we know that Bud's really referring to his home planet.

* Even though it's often PlayedForLaughs, it can be pretty sobering whenever the aliens' attempts to return to their home planet fail. Especially since, out of all the aliens, Candy is the most homesick.

** "Flora and Feast" is especially depressing, considering the other aliens don't seem to care when his giant plant (which had eaten a chunk of their house) he grew for a contest, departs.
* "No Account Art" has Gorgious discovering his talent for art, only to get upset when the art critic, Vladimir Zakarov takes credit for them. This line from him basically sums up the frustration of the situation:
-->'''Gorgious:''' That fake is getting all the glory, while I have to hide in poverty and obscurity!
** Additionally, after his first attempt to frame Zakarov fails, rather than getting angry, Gorgious briefly goes through a HeroicBSOD. Even before Etno manages to convince him not to give up, it's still pretty sobering and relatable to artists who go through something similar.

* In "Dingo Bingo", Gorgious wins the lottery and moves into a large skyscraper mansion. The other aliens become jealous and attempt to work for him to get some of his money, but angrily quit when he only pays them in peanuts. They return to their old house, happy to enjoy their pumpkin soup, when they see a party erupting from Gorgious's mansion, complete with loud disco music. Disgusted, they leave for bed, but unbeknownst to them, the "guests" are actually cardboard cutouts, and Gorgious is actually alone and visibly depressed. It later culminates with him starting at a snowglobe with the old house and breaking down in tears out of homesickness, before he blows up his mansion and reunites with his friends.
