* The entire Night Of Nights.
** It starts with the natives and the pirates having a battle, where the natives sacrificed their lives trying to protect Peter.
** Then, even though the pirates captured the kids, don’t think they didn’t put up a fight. The boys had to be tied up in such a position which would stop them from flying.
** Once Hook has seized a secret from a particular Lost Boy that lets him get into The Home Under The Ground and poison Peter’s medicine? Tinker Bell drinks it, showing her true devotion for Peter.
** To save the fairy, Peter calls on ''every child in the world'' to clap their hands and revove her, they do. You can’t help putting the book down, and clapping yourself!
** Once Tink’s back and buzzing, Peter sets off to find the Jolly Roger. Swearing ‘Hook or me, this time!’
** When Peter gets on the ship, the first thing he does is start brutally killing the pirates one-by-one. Once Peter lets the boys start killing too, they go absolutely ham on the pirates, to the point some of them leap off the ship in fear of the kids.
** The only lost boy not to kill a pirate is Slightly, who instead runs around shining a lamp in their eyes, completely unfazed as the others kill whoever he just blinded, and keeping count.
** He counts seventeen in the end, and the narrator remarks he might have messed up, maybe there was even more pirates killed.
** Peter and the boys hijack the Jolly Roger, and fly off to London, where and Wendy and her brothers go back home, and the boys get adopted. Peter is captain of the ship now, of course.

** He shoos away the crocodile, with some PolitenessJudo.
** Manages to out-row said crocodile later on, albeit negated by Hook falling out of the boat and having to swim for his life.
** Captures Tinkerbell in an ambush to bring her to Hook.
** In the final battle, he's the only one with sense to abandon ship, because Peter Pan is in LetsGetDangerous mode. This also means he accidentally rescues all of the crew when Peter and the Lost Boys send them flying.


Added DiffLines:

* Wendy deciding to go home, and calling out Peter for abandoning her to collect firewood while he danced with Tiger Lily. And still waiting for her brothers because she's not leaving them.


Added DiffLines:

* Hook accidentally walks the plank and nearly falls into the crocodile's mouth. Then he defies physics by making jump in mid-air back onto the plank. The crocodile's disappointed expression sells it.


Added DiffLines:

* John also goes into LetsGetDangerous mode; he takes charge of the Lost Boys to commandeer the crow's nest, pulls Michael to safety when the latter's leg gets snagged in the climbing net, and manages to hold off the pirates from taking his friends hostage long enough for Peter to even the odds.
* Tinker Bell shows her making amends for her actions by trying to fight the pirate swinging his sword at John's head, and then telling Peter that the pirates are nearly overwhelming the boys, allowing Peter to cut the nets and save everyone.

!! Musical Stage Adaptations
* The 2014 version is an earnest attempt to defy Native American stereotypes, and characterizes Tiger Lily with as much dignity as the source material permits. While "Ugg-a-Wug" portrays Tiger Lily as being totally dependent upon Peter Pan, "True Blood Brothers" establishes that Peter and the Lost Boys have come to BashBrothers terms with Tiger Lily and her tribe. Peter and Tiger Lily are almost equals, except that Peter has declared himself the captain of the island of Neverland.

!!''[[Disney/PeterPan Return to Neverland]]''

* The ''opening credits'' recap the events of the first film pretty admirably, adding a medley from significant songs.
* Hook's first appearance, soaring right over ''right past an entire squadron of attacking Luftwaffe'', which was Nazi Germany's most deadly, effective, and feared military air force, ''without being spotted.''
* The entirety of the song "I'll Try". First it rips your heart out as a tender song about the loss of childhood the main character is facing, having grown up in World War Two. Then it becomes a musical crowning moment of awesome as Tinkerbell comes alive and it's clear that Jane has learned how to believe in something.
* Jane trounces Captain Hook with much confidence and aplomb alongside Tink to spectacularly save Peter and the Lost Boys. It would be almost into LargeHam territory if it wasn't so awesome and improbably cool for such a formerly overly-mature character.
-->'''Jane''': "Not so fast you old codfish! Or you'll have to answer to ''me''!
