* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
** Poirot comforting [[spoiler: Linda after her failed suicide attempt]] by assuring her that she's not the wicked person she thought herself, only a normal young woman who was trying to deal with completely understandable anger.
** In the 1982 film, when Poirot solves the crime and returns Sir Horace Blatt's stolen diamond, the normally-stodgy Sir Horace is genuinely grateful:
--->'''Sir Horace Blatt:''' You're a ''wonder'', Poirot!
** In the original novel, Linda indicates (in her typically understated way) that she will enjoy having Rosamund Darnley as her new stepmother. Similarly, the 1982 film has Kenneth and Linda present during Daphne Castle's final scene, with the implication that they may well become a family.

* ValuesDissonance: ValuesDissonance:
** The ending of the novel, in which Kenneth proposes marriage to Rosamund, saying "You're going to give up that damned dressmaking business of yours and we're going to live in the country". She does briefly lampshade his temerity and defend the importance of her work, but ultimately the narrative treats it as expendable.
