* A minor, fridge tearjerker: Joanna waving goodbye to [=McLeach=] when he's about to go over the falls. You'd expect her to be grinning at her abusive master's well-deserved demise, but instead she has a sad little frown. Despite everything he's put her through, she still cares about him and seems genuinely saddened by his death...[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything something that often happens with real life victims of abuse...]]
* Meta example: If the Disney Wiki is to be believed, there was originally going to be another ''Rescuers'' movie but after the deaths of Eva Gabor (Bianca's voice actor) and John Candy (Wilbur's voice actor), this and all future ''Rescuers'' movies were scrapped. This means that the public may never get the third movie or (to a lesser extent) TV series they asked for.

*** The way she tenderly holds his tattered backpack in that scene...forget mere ''adult'' fears, ''children'' will likely be gripping their parents tightly and blubbering at that moment.

** The gestation period of a bird that size would likely be about thirty to forty days. This means that Marahute couldn't have lost her life partner more than a few months ago. Clearly the wound is still raw, part of the reason she was so eager to show Cody her nest may have been loneliness.

* Mentioned on the Heartwarming page, but Bianca tries to encourage Cody to have hope because Bernard is still out there and can help. Jake agrees to this aloud, but then congratulates Bianca on a decent bluff, showing that he has no faith in Bernard being of any real help. Bernard seems to unfortunately have the stigma of nobody but Bianca believing in him being anything more than {{The Load}}.
** Also mentioned on the Heartwarming page is that despite Jake's pessimism, this quickly turns heartwarming when Bianca reaffirms her unwavering faith in Bernard. Still, the implication that she's the ONLY one to believe in him at all can be harsh if you've ever felt that way yourself.

* Cody asks Marahute, "Where's the daddy eagle?" She just bows her head in sadness, to which he says:
-->'''Cody''': [[BondingOverMissingParents Oh.. My dad's gone, too.]]
** Later on, [=McLeach=] outright tells Cody he was the one responsible for killing the father eagle.
** It's even worse when you consider the fact that almost all known eagle species are monogamous, meaning that they pair for life. Marahute may well have been with her mate for a very long time and would have been with him for much longer...if [=McLeach=] hadn't killed him.
