!!Sequels
[[AC:Return to the Sea]]
* Sebastian has a moment in the second movie: "...and these [[LargeHam WHOPPERS POP]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIBht8M_8-E OUT!]]"
** The follow-up scene, with Sebastian sobbing his eyes out on the hem of Ariel's dress, is PRICELESS.
*** Not to mention when Sebastian ''blows his nose'' into Ariel's dress.
* A reprisal of the chase scene in the second movie between Louis and Sebastian during the party, starting with a YouExclamation from Louis and a small "You" from Sebastian.
* Melody mimicking Sebastian, with Sebastian himself topping it off with a blunt "Stop dat." The way he delivers that line is too rich.
* The argument between [[ThoseTwoGuys Tip and Dash]], the penguin and walrus respectively, from the second movie. When Dash says "She doesn't like birds who don't fly!", Tip gives a dramatic gasp and says he can't fly either. Then when Dash says he walks funny, Tip thinks for a few seconds...then screams the same response: he can't fly either!
* Morgana fooling Melody into stealing Triton's trident by saying it was hers, but it was stolen by a "deranged kleptomaniac."

[[AC:Ariel's Beginning]]
* From the third film, when Ariel and Flounder find Sebastian's underground music club.
* Marina celebrating Sebastian's arrest right [[MoodWhiplash after this sad line]].
--> '''Attina''': No one's happy...
--> '''Marina''': Yahoooooo!
** These lines between a couple a fishes watching Marina's celebration makes it even funnier.
--> '''Fish 1''': Who is that?
--> '''Fish 2''': I don't know but she scares me.
** One part of the celebration has Marina mimicking Ariel's iconic pose on the rock as a wave crashes behind her... and into her.

* Early in the film, Ursula bemoans her exile from the kingdom, and moans that she's wasted away to nothing, despite still being quite fat. A book called ''Disney Villains: The Top Secret Files'' made it clear that as a young adult, she [[FormerlyFit went from wispy to her current size]] due to overindulging on the gourmet meals at the palace. The musical also makes it clear that the lavish meals are what she misses most about her old life.
