* The whole ending where Sam and Patrick show up for Charlie after going away to college and after [[spoiler:Charlie's whole attempted suicide episode.]]
* It is oddly heartwarming to see the complete horror on the face of Charlie's sister when she realizes [[spoiler: he's going to try to kill himself]], especially as she had spent most of the year ignoring her brother. She still knew him well enough to instantly recognize his intentions despite him not saying it directly, and acted immediately to try and help him.

* Great Uncle Phil's story about how, after learning his sister was in an abusive relationship for seven years, he got his friends from the factory together and beat him up in a bar to the point he was hospitalized and died days later. Even better, even though he could have easily gone to jail for physical assault, no one ratted him out, since all of his neighbors knew "that somethings had nothing to do with the police."

** Arguably, the whole friendship between Charlie and the step-siblings. In the book, it is implied that a lot of people see Charlie as a weirdo, so he doesn't have any friends (anymore). Then, enter Sam and Patrick, who completely accept him, invite him to go to a diner with them just moments after he introduced himself to them, and treat him like a good friend right away. Seriously, this must have put a smile on the face of every one who ever had trouble fitting in.
