| 1 | * Kiki's tearful flashback to her time in animals testing labs where another talking ferret named Tuffy died. Its the only serious moment Kiki has ''ever'' gotten in this entire series. |
| 2 | * [[spoiler: Mosp's death]] definitely counts as she sacrifices herself for [[spoiler: Torg.]] [[https://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?chapter=43#2004-11-16]] |
| 3 | * While Torg's badassery in "That Which Redeems" is undeniable, his answer to Chaz over his "Redemption is overrated" statement in defeating Horribus after Alt!Zoe's death is heartbreaking. |
| 4 | --> '''Chaz''': You impress me, Master. How did you know what you sought was redemption and not righteous vengeance? |
| 5 | --> '''Torg''': Horribus never promised to keep her safe. |
| 6 | * In the denouement to that story, Torg finds out that the Torg he rescued from the Dimension of Pain was not actually the Dimension of Lame's Torg, but a ReplacementGoldfish that Alt!Riff brought over, resulted in Torg being disgusted with Alt!Riff and conflicted over whether Alt!Zoe saw him as a person or a replacement for her husband. The story ends with Torg returning home and having a silent breakdown upon seeing Zoe in a dialogue-less strip. |
| 7 | * The [[http://sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/090820 finale]] of the [=bROKEN=] arc. |
| 8 | * Toward the end of 4U City Red: |
| 9 | -->'''Riff''': She was the best. The '''best'''. All the craziness Torg and I put her through? She always did right. By everyone. She always '''shined'''. Remember that. Embrace that. And then let her go. |
| 10 | * A flashback to Queen Siphaniana's childhood has her meeting [[http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/131104 Tempest, God of Fate, for the first time]]. She mentions her father and he, curious as to why that name sounds familiar, checks the fate web. [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Then he stops smiling]]. Apparently her father was later brutally tortured to death, and there was nothing anyone could do to stop it. |
| 11 | -->'''Uncle Time:''' You go home and give your daddy the biggest hug ever. Hugs are very important. Can you do that for me? |
| 12 | * [[http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/weekly/090928 U4 Torg is lost without Zoë.]] In fact, every dimension where a Torg or a Zoë lose one another is heartbreaking. |
| 13 | ** To the point Wilcott admits that it'd be kinder to kill them both rather than leave one of them alive. |
