SPACEBALLS: THE TEARJERKER PAGE
- Lone Starr and Vespa share a heart-to-heart in the desert. Vespa admits that, even if they make it back to her kingdom, she'll be forced to marry someone she doesn't love. Lone Starr sympathizes and tells her that his parents left him to be raised by monks, so he doesn't know who he is. He shows her his Orphan's Plot Trinket, a necklace with writing no one can read, and says it's the only thing his family left with him.
- The scene where King Roland says goodbye to a picture of his daughter as he suffocates is played surprisingly straight.Roland: Goodbye... little Vespa… my...little... baby... Vespa! (keels over from loss of oxygen)
- After Lone Starr and Barf return Vespa to her kingdom and stop Dark Helmet's plot, they are both in Heroic BSoD. Lone Starr loves Vespa but can't marry her since he's a space ruffian, while Vespa believes he just rescued her for the money. Her dad then tells her Lone Starr refused the reward he demanded as compensation for her rescue, took a smaller amount for gas and food, and asked him not to tell the princess of his change of heart. Vespa has a My God, What Have I Done? expression for having judged Lone Starr so poorly.
- Happy tears at the end: Lone Starr finds out from Yoghurt that he is a prince, and uses liquid Schwartz to turn his ship around and go to marry Vespa. He dresses in a nice suit, interrupts the ceremony, and tells her of his royal status. When the priest agrees to marry them and rushes through the vows, they both look teary-eyed before going for The Big Damn Kiss.
