** The brief segment with Cory's history report, honoring black people who made their marks on the world we know today. Including Frederick Douglass, Bessie Coleman, Scott Joplin, Gary Morgan, Harriet Tubman, Jackie Robinson, Thurgood Marshall, Sojourner Truth, Madam C.J. Walker, Althea Gibson, Marcus Garvey, Mary McLeod Bethune and Jesse Owens. And then there's Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. And Cory thought black history was boring. He was motivated to finish his project after learning about all these accomplishments.
** The fact that this episode ''exists.'' Once again, Disney made a VerySpecialEpisode that deals with realistic factors. Racism is unfortunately very common in the modern days. The fact that the episode was made in honor of Black History Month also helps.

Think about all the disguises Raven's worn throughout the series, around 20 per season! They're very convincing, she really knows how to act, and some of them were even created by Raven herself. Raven may not be the most graceful teenager on television, but she really knows her fashion skills.

* '''Five Finger Discount:'''
** After going along with Daryl's shoplifting/jerk crew, and feeling guilty about stealing for the majority of the episode, Cory tried to get out of the crew while he still could.
*** And when that didn't work, and Daryl threatened to blab a secret about Cory, and called him a sucker, Cory decided he was done with Daryl and his so-called "cool crew".
--->'''Cory:''' You know what Daryl? You can call me anything you want. But you know what you ''can't'' call me? A thief.
--->'''Daryl:''' You stole that keychain.
--->'''Cory:''' [[InsultBackfire I put it back!]]
** Cory stopping Daryl from stealing a watch, and telling him it wasn't cool.
** The fact that Raven was willing to defend own brother, and encouraged him to return the monkey and stood up the Daryl's gang. Usually she doesn't even ''like'' Cory. It proves that Raven really does care for her brother, even if she hates showing it.
** After Daryl and his crew tried to sell Cory out to a police officer (actually Raven in disguise), Raven made Daryl's crew stay put, so they couldn't play innocent.
** The fact that Daryl and his gang got busted, and reported to their parents. After mistreating Cory for the entire episode, this moment is very cathartic.
** Meta-wise, the episode itself can be considered a CMoA. It focuses on a serious topic known as shoplifting, and it shows that Disney's not afraid to talk about these kinds of subjects. Not bad for one of Disney's first sitcoms.



* How about the fact that this show destroyed the 65-episode rule, and made way for longer running series on Disney networks? That's definitely awesome among itself.

* '''The Dating Shame:''' After Eddie found out that Rodney Rivers edited out the things Raven and Chelsea said about each other so it seemed like they were talking trash, just to make the show more interesting, Eddie took a stand and played the real version (the nice one) in front of Raven, Chelsea and the audience.
---> '''Eddie:''' [[TheDogBitesBack First rule in show business: Never leave your tapes by the doughnut table okay?]]
** When Chelsea and Raven found out Rodney Rivers was an evil fame-seeking liar/tape switcher they immediately made up for their actions earlier, apologized and hugged (with one hand, since they were holding onto a beam).
---> '''Raven:''' You see that? You can''not'' tear us apart!
---> '''Chelsea:''' Yeah, you can not mess up our friendship over a boy!
---> '''Raven:''' Yeah, no matter how cute...
---> '''Chelsea:''' …or adorable...
---> '''Raven:'''...or fun he may be! (waves at Chad) We quit!
*** Then when Mr. Rivers tricked them into falling into the trap pit, he wrapped up the show, leaving the girls in humiliation, be then, Raven grabbed Rodney, and pulled him into the trap pit as well, leaving him humiliated and possibly getting the show canceled. That'll teach him to tear the girls against other! No one mess with true friendship and get away with it!

* '''Skunk'd:''''''Skunk'd:''' Raven knew how upset Chelsea was over her not enjoying nature like she does, but she still decided to go into the dark woods by herself just so she could save Chelsea from being stuck under a rock. And get this, she didn't even ''like'' nature at the time
** Speaking of which, Chelsea spent the entire episode being angry with Raven for being a "mall girl" and wondering whether they should even be friends. But Raven decided to give nature a chance and actually enjoyed it. Then Chelsea accepted the fact the Raven wasn't an outdoors person, and decided to stay friends with Raven anyway. [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Talk about true friendship.]]

* '''A Goat's Tale:''' [[TheDitz Chelsea]] out of all people proving to be a great mother to the goat and providing it excellent service and care.
* '''He's Got the Power:''' So, a teenage jerk named Sonny tricked Eddie (who temporarily had psychic powers at the time) into helping him gamble for horse hoping to receive money in return, all while pretending to be friendly with him. When Eddie picked the wrong horse after losing his temporary powers, the second time, Sonny tried to beat him up in anger, but then Raven and Chelsea showed up on the scene pulling a BigDamnHeroes moment disguised as 70s cops Coffee and Cream no less. [[ItMakesSenseInContext (It was 70s Night at the Chill Grill)]] Just minutes ago, Raven was just complaining about how annoyed she was about Eddie's recent pride. She could have abandoned him and let Sonny give him a piece of his mind, but instead she chose to help Eddie out and stop Sonny. This also doubles as a [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments funny moment]] and a [[Sugarwiki/HeartwarmingMoments heartwarming moment.]]
--->'''Raven and Chelsea (disguised as Cream and Coffee):''' [[BigDamnHeroes Freeze Suckas!]]
--->'''Sonny:''' What's going on? Who-Who are you two?
--->'''Raven: (as Cream)''' [[LargeHam I'm Coffee!]]
--->'''Chelsea: (as Coffee)''' [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Yeah, and I'm Cream!]]
--->'''Raven: (as Cream)''' And you are stone cold busted!
--->'''Sonny:''' You're cops?
--->'''Eddie:''' (playing along) Yeah! I know these two! Man, you're in trouble now, Sonny boy!
--->'''Chelsea: (as Coffee)''' Sho 'nuff cause we're a couple of bad mama-jamas who are not digging the vibe you been putting down!
--->'''Sonny:''' What does that mean?
--->'''Raven: (as Cream)''' It means... if you stop putting the squeeze on my little soul brother (Eddie) over there we gonna forget this ever happened. You dig? You dig?
** Then when Sonny and finds out they're not real cops, he tried to finish what he started with Eddie, but then Tonya and Victor pulled their own BigDamnHeroes moment by showing up on the scene, calling out Sonny for gambling and threatening Eddie, and calling Sonny's mother. it just goes to show how much these two care for Raven and her friends.

to:

\n* '''To See Or Not To See:''' Viv(ian) (Raven's grandmother) is made of awesome. She can have visions whenever she wants, instead of Raven's occasional ones. And managed to get past all of Cory's pranks, all while keeping a positive, and friendly persona. Plus she helped Raven understand how her powers weren't necessarily a bad thing and should stay calm even when things don't work out. She's an EnsembleDarkhorse for a very good reason. (Too bad she's a one-shot character)
** The sole fact the Eddie and Chelsea were willing to forgive Raven for her visions not working out, and apologized for being so mad at her earlier. They realized Raven's visions wouldn't always turn out the way they wanted, and that was okay, that just shouldn't stay mad at her over the incident for the timebeing. Also doubles as Heartwarming.
** For those of you rooting for Eddie, him actually climbing to the top of the rock wall towards the end can be this as well.
