** Zhaan proving her loyalty to Moya in the eyes of her creator Kahaynu, who had used his status as God to the Leviathans to talk Moya into committing suicide to prevent her being used to birth more gunships like Talyn, by killing him. Even though it didn't work, the fact that she tried was enough to convince Kahaynu that Zhann will never let anyone use Moya like that again, Moya is revived and Kahaynu briefly uses his powers to let her speak directly to Zhaan. All Moya requests is for Zhaan to continue to sing.

* It's PlayedForLaughs (since Crichton is with Aeryn now, and they're having a baby), but Jool's reunion with John in ''[=PKWars=]'' is incredibly sweet, especially when she says she knew he'd always come back for her, and even after the reveal she still kisses him on the forehead (in a CallBack to the moment from "Revenging Angel" mentioned above). Makes it even more of a TearJerker when she refuses to leave Arnessk after having "found her place" and then gets killed with everyone else when the Scarrans bomb the temple.

* In "Mind the Baby" when John, Aeryn and D'Argo turn up alive, Rygel experiences "a case of the Intons", which is a Hynerian airway seizure caused by very strong emotions. It's both heartwarming and adorable.

** What about Crichton "meeting" his daughter with the princess (ItMakesSenseInContext)? The one that he'll never get to even see born.


Added DiffLines:

** Before Crichton leaves Katralla, via Tyno, suggests he use the imaging machine (seen earlier in the trilogy) to view a simulation of what their future daughter will look like. While Crichton won't be able to meet the actual child he does get to spend a precious few minutes interacting with her. For bonus heartwarming points, the child is played by Ben Browder's [[RealLifeRelative actual daughter]] (who was credited under a false name).

* The rest of the crew's goodbyes to Crichton in "Dog With Two Bones" aren't too shabby, either. D'Argo says that anything positive he will do will be because of John, his friend. Chiana tells him never to forget her, or that she loves him. Even Rygel gets in on it by saying that of all the lesser species, he's grown to like Crichton's the best.

* In "Prayer," Crichton and Scorpius have gone on a long-shot mission through a deteriorating wormhole to gather information that could lead to Aeryn's rescue. Meanwhile, the rest of the team is waiting for them on Moya near the wormhole's entrance...the problem being that Grayza knows where the entrance is. Sikozu and Rygel argue that it puts them in far too much danger and that they should starburst away, but Chiana and D'Argo refuse to leave Crichton behind. The kicker is when Grayza's command carrier actually shows up, and the team votes on whether to starburst or to risk the carrier getting close enough to identify them. With the prior four deadlocked, the remaining members of the team emphatically break the tie:
-->'''Pilot:''' Moya and I vote stay.\\

** In that same episode, we get a touching moment between Pilot and Aeryn Sun. Aeryn is clearly suffering from heat delirium induced by rising temperatures aboard Moya, and is on the verge of passing out. Pilot realizes that if she collapses, she may fall over the catwalk surrounding Pilot's den and into the bowels of the ship, so he leans forward and catches her with one of his arms. As he holds Aeryn, he muses to her:

---> '''Pilot:''' It is strange to be so close to a Peacekeeper I do not fear. (beat) That was a compliment.

** After learning that Katralla is already pregnant but he can't be put into stasis again Crichton is, understandably, devastated. He immediately tells them to have Councillor Tyno (who Katralla was secretly in love with) take his place. Since Katralla's already pregnant it no longer matters that Tyno's DNA is incompatible and he's a good man who will take care of the child. Katralla's response when Crichton asks if she's on board with this plan is a delighted "Yes".
