* In Oxley’s cell at the sanatorium, [[ManlyTears Mutt has tears in his eyes]] upon seeing the scrawls all over the walls and seeing Oxley, basically his foster father, has lost his mind. Indy (due to his former friendship with Oxley - and possibly remembering his father’s obsession with the Holy Grail in the last film - and thus knowing how Mutt must be feeling) puts a comforting hand on Mutt’s shoulder. This becomes even more heartwarming when the two realise they’re related.

* Charles Stanforth resigning his post as Dean in order to keep Indy employed at the college, showing how much he cares for his friend the same way Marcus did. Gets even better at the end when he watches giddily as a worker applies the letters "PROFESSOR HENRY JONES JR., ASSOCIATE DEAN" to Jones' office door.

* Meta example: While Creator/HarrisonFord admitted that - at the time this movie came out and for years after - he had no interest in playing Han Solo ever again, he also mentioned that he had been practically chomping at the bit to play Indy again for years, he loves the role that much. Since he's agreed to ''Indiana Jones V'' even though he's well into his 70s, it's safe to assume he still feels that way.
* Another Meta example: Spielberg taking full blame for the infamous refrigerator scene even though Lucas would later admit that it was his idea and his alone. [[HeterosexualLifePartners It really does show how much of a friendship both filmmakers have.]]
* Indiana Jones saying "Somewhere, your grandpa is laughing" now becomes this as Creator/SeanConnery has recently passed on.

-->'''Marion''': I'm sure I wasn't the only one to go on with my life! There must have been [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom plenty of]] [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade women]] for you over the years.\\
'''Indy''': There were a few, yeah, but they all had the same problem.\\
'''Marion''': Oh yeah? What's that??\\
'''Indy''': They weren't you, honey.

* At the end when Indy and Marion FINALLY get married. The wind blows the door open, sending the iconic fedora landing at Mutt's feet. He picks it up and almost puts it on before his dad snatches it away as if to say, 'Close, kiddo, but not yet."
** To wit and to match what was written about illumination in ''The Last Crusades''' Heartwarming entry, Mutt doesn't treat the hat as a prize. You can see him hold and look at it with reverence and respect as if the hat itself contained some sort of power. It's also perhaps the first time that it really hits Mutt that his dad is THE Indiana Jones; that his dad is this really amazing man instead of a deadbeat that he's thought all his life. He's experiencing for the first time in a very real way the sort of awe all children have at their invincible fathers.
