* Fraser's EstablishingCharacterMoment has him dramatically chasing a criminal through the wilderness and then declaring "That will teach him to fish over the limit." To be fair, it later turns out that the guy fished ''hundreds'' of fish over the limit and dynamited the river to do so.

** He does it again in the third season premiere by chasing a criminal through the wilderness, catching him and hauling him in, saying “He’ll never litter again!” When the other Mounties express incredulity, he explains that the guy was actually “littering” the wilderness with toxic chemical waste.

** Fraser sees his father's ghost on Christmas and asks the ghost if there's a history of insanity in their family.
--> '''Fraser Sr.''': No, not that I'm aware of.
--> '''Fraser:''' Good.
--> '''Fraser Sr.''' : Well, there was your uncle Tiberius that died wrapped in cabbage leaves, but we assumed that was a freak accident.
** The entire episode has Fraser not wanting Vecchio to know that he's talking to his dad's ghost for fear it will sound crazy. Near the end, it's revealed that Vecchio has spent all of that time being visited by ''his'' father's ghost, who keeps nagging him.
--> '''Mr. Vecchio:''' Twenty-four hours and you still haven't solved the case.
--> '''Ray Vecchio:''' Come on, Pop, it's Christmas day! You want to give it a rest?
--> '''Mr. Vecchio:''' Hey, if you don't care about your work, it's fine with me.

Added DiffLines:

* The entire sting operation in ''Pizza and Promises'' is hysterical. Ray cares more about the safety of the bait (his personal car) than actually catching the crooks. He also has to enlist the help of his sister Frannie to drop off the car, and she gets his radio callsign wrong in an insulting fashion.
--> '''Frannie:''' Stay out of this, gelding!
--> '''Ray:''' Stallion!
--> '''Frannie:''' Yeah, in your dreams.
* A brief moment of levity in the mostly grim episode ''The Deal'' has Frannie providing a couple of particularly comical moments.
** First, during the middle of Mass, she goes on a rambling tangent and then asks Fraser if he wants to have sex ''just'' as the choir goes silent, causing everyone in the church to hear them.
** The second time is when she goes to confession.
--> '''Francesca:''' Forgive me, Father, for what I am about to do.
--> '''Father Behan:''' This isn't about the Mountie again, is it?
--> '''Francesca:''' I know, I know, but this time I'm gonna do it.
--> '''Father Behan:''' Francesca, I can't keep forgiving you in advance for something that never happens.
