Go To

God U

  • Marie's reaction to being accepted into Godolkin is one of pure surprise and joy. Her teacher's support also is pretty touching.
  • Emma immediately befriending Marie and even cheering her up of her usual moody behaviour, specially since it is implied Marie has been a loner all her life, counts as a heartwarming moment too.
    • Special mention goes to Emma helping her prepare for the party with Luke, Cate and Jordan.
  • It's cute to see that Li's circle of friends in no way show any hint of transphobia against them. When they change genders in the middle of the party, Luke only comments on it as if to tease them, but they're all fully supportive of their gender orientation. This is specially poignant considering their folks are Heteronormative Crusaders.
  • Luke's final words before dying are telling Andre how he loves him, followed by a hug.

First day

#ThinkBrink

  • Cate and Marie opening about their Traumatic Superpower Awakening, which shows them begin to connect after initially butting heads.
  • Emma and Sam... Just Emma and Sam. Emma is nothing but helpful and sympathetic with him and even patiently listens to Sam's rantings about Waterworld, since it's probably the first friendly conversation he's had in a long time. He in return doesn't judge her sizeshifting bullimic powers and helps her get out of the Woods. Their Ship Tease is also freaking adorable.
  • It's a small one but Jordan's partner immediatly accepts them panicking about their homophobic parents coming, and stops to help them tidy up the room and stealthly disappear.
  • Cate and Andre's Glad-to-Be-Alive Sex, showing them growing closer after Luke's death. Harsher in Hindsight because of the above reasons, sadly.

The Whole Truth

  • Again, Sam and Emma's moments together, specifically him reminiscing about his times with Luke at the all drive in theatre.
    • It's telling how close the two are that when Emma reveals she lied to him about Golden Boy's status, revealing he was dead, he doesn't at any moment blame her on the slightest, even at his craziest.
  • Dr. Cardosa's Pet the Dog moment when he protects his husband and daughter from Sam's schizophrenia-fueled attack, showing he is not as bad as he seems.

Welcome to the Monster Club

Jumanji

  • Marie's You Are Not Alone speech to Cate, which helps her snap out of her psychic coma and free her friends too. While they're not willing to forgive her yet, they now understand the reasons she had to do it and how much she has suffered all her life.
  • Despite what it eventually devolves into, Cate's mental image of Luke tells Andre how much he misses him, followed by Andre replying the same. You can hear him holding back his tears when he's saying it, finally able to properly say goodbye to his friend.
  • The flashback showing how Luke and Cate met, with the two dorkishly flirting. It's no wonder why the two loved each other so much.
  • Emma and Sam spending the night together. Just like in The Boys it's cute to finally see normal consensual sex between two adults, instead of psychic rape or sizeshifter fetishists.

Sick

  • Shetty's Pet the Dog moment when she reveals for all her faults (Which aren't few) she truly grew to care for Cate and considered her one of the few non-evil supes. It's even hinted she began to saw her as a new daughter figure.
  • A bit bittersweet, but Sam is able to finally party alongside Steve, Rufus and others, and for once experience normal life as a crazy college student. The "bitter" part comes when he is indoctrinated into Supe supremacy and the fact he is befriending Rufus.
