  • After Tifa defeats Loz, the famous victory theme starts playing, quickly revealed to be Loz's cellphone ringtone.
  • A mostly tearjerking scene, but when Tifa started yelling at Cloud for giving up on himself and his new family just because of his inability to let go of the past (and Aerith's death), Reno and Rude hurriedly excuse themselves.
  • Rude gets a billboard dropped on his head, then Reno lands on him, and then his sunglasses are stepped on by Reno.
  • Rude's look of despair as his trusty sunglasses are crushed, and his subsequent producing of an identical pair from inside his jacket.
  • Rude again. Cloud beats the stuffing out of Bahamut SIN, and goes chasing after Kadaj with his serious face on, while Rude utterly fails to climb a wall of tarp and lands flat on his back, flailing like an upended turtle.
  • Cloud goes to meet with Rufus, and Reno rushes to attack him, prompting Cloud to calmly sidestep and lock him out behind the door. The entire sequence is filled with his muffled shouting to be let back in.
  • Rude & Reno's comments to Loz & Yazoo about Jenova, and Loz's reaction.
    Reno: It's Jenova's friggin' head...
    Loz: HEY!
    Yazoo: I will not have you talk about Mother that way!
    Loz: You MEANIE!
    Rude: Our apologies.
    Reno: Your ma's cool.
    (Beat)
    Reno: What the hell am I saying!?
    • Before that when they confront Yazoo and Loz at the center monument, "claiming" to not know where Jenova is, accidentally spilling the beans in the process, and Reno can only look back and forth at Rude and blame ''him''.
      Reno: Where we've hid her is classified info! Hehe.
      Yazoo: So, you do know where Mother is.
      Reno: Uh, yo- Rude...! You and your big mouth! [attacks]
    • Those Two Guys again. After Bahamut SIN shows up, Reno, during his initial charge against Yazoo and Loz, halts and swings his baton back, whacking Rude square in the face.
    • Just immediately after seeing Bahamut SIN.
      Reno: Hello!
      Rude: Hell no.
    • Then as they flee.
      Reno: Is it after us!?
      Rude: I'm not lookin'!
  • Loz is just full of laughs at every turn.
    • "I'm NOT crying!"
    • During the Highway Chase when he uses his bike-mounted guns.
      Loz: Ba-bang! Ba-ba-ba-bang!!!
  • In Complete, hearing Marlene imitating Barret's manner of speech for a moment was just too hilarious for words. Picture a six-year-old girl talking like Mr. T, and you get the idea.
  • While everyone else upon showing up to the Bahamut SIN fight leaps into battle, Yuffie takes a moment to clear up something with Tifa.
    Yuffie: Alright, who's been touching my Materia?
    Tifa: The bad guys, naturally.
    Yuffie: Ooooooo! *runs into the fray*
    • And just after she lands and throws a winning smile, she has to choke something back. Yuffie suffered from airsickness in the game.
  • Just the whole conversation between Reno and Rude on the bridge during the motorcycle chase.
    Reno: So this...thing? Got any bite to it?
    Rude: Shinra technology at its finest.
    Reno: Oh, so YOU made this.
    Rude: If nothing else, it's...flashy.
    Reno: Ooh, good.
    Rude: You love it. I know.
  • Also in Complete, after Yazoo takes out the helicopter by launching his motorcycle at it and shooting the controls.
    Reno: You okay?
    Rude: (hanging on the outside of the helicopter as it's falling out of the sky) Oh, I'm just peachy.
  • Marlene to Vincent:
    "You don't have a phone?!"
    • Later turns into a Brick Joke when he arrives in Edge asking where he can find one.
      • Even more so in Dirge of Cerberus, where one of the first things you see is Vincent's shiny new phone. With a custom skin.
  • Marlene throwing a Materia at Loz's head. It's so subtle it earns a chuckle, until...
  • "What up fool, it's Barret. I am the man!"
  • Rufus tries to butter up Cloud with Think of the Children! rhetoric, and actually sways him for a minute, but then Reno jumps in and reveals Rufus' true motivations.
    Reno: C'mon, Cloud, think about it. Together we can rebuild SHINRA!
    (beat)
    Cloud: Not interested. (leaves)
    Rufus: (hissing) Reno...
    • And just before the door closes on his face, Reno gives Rufus a look that screams "Oh, I just said the quiet part out loud, didn't I?"
  • Cait Sith spends pretty much the whole entire fight against Bahamut clinging onto Red XIII for dear life. (Without the moogle he can't fight thus he can't really do anything).
  • Barret gets almost Butt-Monkey status during the Bahamut fight since his Arm Cannon seems largely ineffective against the behemoth, being much more deadly against the smaller minions, and with him needing to frequently avoid explosions and debris caused by the dragon's attacks. When Cloud finally makes his Big Damn Heroes save to keep him from getting crushed by flaming debris, and casually plops him on his face onto a piece of scaffolding, he can only scream an indignant complaint at his lateness.
    Barret: Where the hell you been?!
