- Death plays with Granny for the soul of a baby. He doesn't want to win, but the Magic Poker Equation leaves him with four aces and Granny with four queens. He ponders it for a moment, and then:Death: I lose. All I have is four ones.
- Then he winks at Granny.
- Mrs. Plinge, and her son’s love for each other. While it may border on slightly creepy, it’s really touching to see how much they love one another.
- Walter even went after his mum as the Ghost when he found out that she was walking home without his protection. And then he saved her from a pack of thieves! (Not that she needed him with Granny around, but still.) Doubles as a moment of awesome.
- During the aforementioned rescue, the Ghost refers to Granny Weatherwax as Bella Donna, in gratitude. It's the name for beautiful woman (and deadly nightshade, which is a moment of funny), and when Granny learns this meaning even she can't help being flattered, and thinks of the Ghost in a brief romantic vision ("the skull of an angel...").
- After establishing that most people in Lancre don't get Agnes' attempt at reinvention by calling herself "Perdita", Nanny Ogg gets it in one, being no stranger to the notion of wanting to reinvent oneself.
