'''Lindsey:''' You are ''pathetic''. Why can't you just admit it? You stopped looking for her, a long time ago.

* When Detective Fenerman is berating Jack for accusing Mr. Harvey of Susie's disappearance, Lindsey calls him out for refusing to even look into it and basically giving up on seeking justice for Susie.
-->'''Len Fenerman:''' Your father put a hole in the man's back door.\\
'''Lindsey:''' Yeah, he should have put a hole in his head.\\
'''Jack:''' Lindsey, please!\\
'''Len Fenerman:''' Did you hear that, Jack? This is the example you're setting for your kids! Persecuting the neighbors!\\
'''Lindsey:''' He is not crazy!\\
'''Len Fenerman:''' I didn't say that.\\
'''Lindsey:''' Well, then why won't you listen to him?\\
'''Len Fenerman:''' Because you need ''evidence'', Lindsey. You can't go around, making accusations against George Harvey when you have no evidence! You need proof!\\
'''Lindsey:''' You are ''pathetic''. Why can't you just admit it? You stopped looking for her, a long time ago.

* For those who consider Abigail TheScrappy, there's the scene when [[spoiler: Buckley, who is all grown up now, says "Fuck you" to her when she returns. His older sister and her fiance don't even intervene when he says it. It feels like a triumph to all kids who have ever had a parent leave, be absent for most of their lives, and then finally return. Those two words are enough to sum up all of the hurt and anger without going into a full out rant.]]
* Harvey's [[spoiler: death. Just when you think he'll never be brought to justice, sweet karma intervenes, and sends him falling to a very sharp, painful and well-deserved death.]]
** He deserved death, no doubt, so the fact that he did die is awesome, but some people were disappointed with how it happened.

Added DiffLines:

** Lindsey also comes up with a good cover story just in case she has to face that she was technically breaking and entering, showing she's thought of everything in order to take Harvey down.
** Lindsey also has a moment of GenreSavvy, where she realises she left a cupboard door open and quickly closing it to cover her tracks. This definitely bought her enough time to get away.
