'''Dolores''': But I already have a good man.

* Mixed as a funny moment. Jessica knocking out Roger and putting him in the trunk of her car for his safety. She cares enough about her husband to protect him from harm. Also, considering the Weasels and Doom were actively looking for Roger, she was right to be worried about him.

*** Similar to the above easy-to-miss one: In the Toontown scene, you can briefly see [[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs]] Snow White and the Evil Queen (in her witch disguise) going grocery shopping together. For anyone who was [[NightmareFuelStationAttendant traumatized by the Evil Queen as a child]], it can be kind of comforting to know that she's good friends with her co-star off set. In fact, it's very likely that all animated villains abide by the MeanCharacterNiceActor rule. (Well, except Doom, of course.)

** "Roger, I love you. I love you more than any woman's ever loved a rabbit." Admittedly, it's a bit of an OverlyNarrowSuperlative (by human standards, anyway, with Toons it's anyone's guess), but the sentiment's still very sweet.

* When Eddie meets WesternAnimation/BettyBoop in the Ink and Paint Club as a cigarette girl, he's shocked to see her there, and Betty explains that work's been a bit slow for her since technicolor cartoons have become the norm. But being who she is, Betty keeps an upbeat attitude giving him her trademark 'boop-boop-be-do-boop'. Eddie, the guy who at that point despised any and all toons that he met, actually gives her a genuine smile and remarked, "Yeah, you still got it." Says a lot for the guy that up until that moment has reacted to all Toons with annoyance and hostility.

*** 2.) Roger's got nothing but sympathy for what Eddie's had to go through since his brother died--Roger's also horrified that it was a toon that killed Teddy, especially since (as previously mentioned at earlier points in the movie) toons are meant to be funny and make people laugh and feel happy.

* When Eddie enters Toon Town to chase after Jessica (whom he thought killed Maroon), he's greeted by a trio of hummingbirds. Despite Eddie not being in Toon Town or associating with Toons after his brother's death, he's still welcomed into Toon Town.

** Look closely and you'll see Wil E. Coyote putting his arm around the Roadrunner.

* Though his relationship with Jessica was both inappropriate and a sham, it really says something that Marvin Acme trusted her enough to leave his will with her, knowing she'd get it into the Toons' hands.

* The first (and sadly ''only'') teamup between WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse and WesternAnimation/BugsBunny was a wonderful little thing. Unlike WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck and WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck, who spent ''their'' scene competing, Mickey and Bugs' scene shows them being friendly and working together to mess with Eddie.

* This may not seem like much, but maybe the first heartwarming moment is when Eddie meets WesternAnimation/BettyBoop in the Ink and Paint Club as a cigarette girl. He's shocked to see her there, and Betty explains that work's been a bit slow for her since technicolor cartoons have become the norm. But being who she is, Betty keeps an upbeat attitude giving him her trademark 'boop-boop-be-do-boop'.

* [[FriendToAllChildren Eddie seems to get along well with human kids]], pulling one boy onto the back on the bus, and trying to stop a mother from smoking around her own baby (although it turns out [[NotWhatItLooksLike she's just lighting a cigar for Baby Herman]]).

* This part of the scene where Eddie and Dolores are hiding with Roger in the movie theater gets me every time:

* [[FriendToAllChildren Eddie seems to get along well with human kids]], pulling one boy onto the back on the bus, and trying to stop a mother from smoking around her own baby.

-->'''Eddie''': You oughta go find yourself a good man.
-->'''Dolores''': But I already have a good man.

* Benny the cab may very well be a real JerkAss ''and'' a roadhog (and a ''sidewalk'' hog, but that was just a couple of miles). But he'll always come be there for you if you [[CallBack stick out your thumb]], [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold and even when you don't]].

** Even before Dolores shows up, after Roger asks Eddie straight-up about what happened to him that led to his hatred of toons, Eddie decides to come clean and reveals what happened to his brother, Teddy. This is heartwarming for two reasons:

** In the same scene you can also see Wile E. Coyote with his arm affectionately around the Road Runner's shoulders. It's an incredibly sweet contrast to the attitude normally portrayed in their shorts.

** Eddie decides to turn over a new leaf, give up the booze, and do something worthwhile. And why does this toon-hating detective decide to do these things? To save his friend--WHO'S A TOON.

** "Roger, I love you. I love you more than any woman's ever loved a rabbit." Admittedly, it's a bit of an OverlyNarrowSuperlative, but the sentiment's still very sweet.

--->'''Roger Rabbit:''' That's right. I know that she was just a innocent victim of circumstance.

--->'''Eddie:''' Wait a minute! You mean to tell me that in a fit of jealous anger, you wrote your wife a love letter?!

** This was Creator/MelBlanc's second-to-last performance before his death the following year. He not only gets the last line of the movie, but also got to close out his career with one of his most famous characters saying, arguably, his most famous Catchphrase.

* When casting WesternAnimation/BettyBoop, they got [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mae_Questel Mae Questel]], who had voiced Betty the longest with 150 shorts to her name, to reprise the role, ''fifty years'' since her last appearance as the character. Also gives her line about "I've StillGotIt, Eddie" a bit more RealitySubtext.
