* The scene where Grandsanta is recounting to Arthur when Malcolm, his own son, told him they were going to be scrapping the old sleigh. If you've ever had something you love and cherished taken away from you due to obsolescence in an ever-changing world, then you know how Grandsanta feels.

* When Steve and Malcolm are on the ship arguing [[spoiler: over who's going to go pick up Arthur and Grand-Santa]], the argument quickly shifts from that to [[spoiler: Malcolm's apparent ignorance of Steve's skills and accomplishments, Steve's frustration at being the WellDoneSonGuy, and Steve ultimately letting slip that he believed being Santa was more important to Malcolm than being his father was, and implies he's only pushing so hard for the Santa title because he wants Malcolm's recognition]]. Between that, the fact that Steve looks and sounds like he's about to start crying, and Margaret blowing up at both of them for letting their egos get in the way of helping Arthur and Grand-Santa, and this scene is pretty painful for anyone who's been in either Steve's or Margaret's position.

Added DiffLines:

* Malcolm reading Arthur's empathic replies to children's letters, and sadly realizing that for all his pride in the job, he has failed to live up to the true meaning of Santa Claus.

* When it seems Grand-Santa is going to do a HeroicSacrifice. Thankfully he doesn't die.
* The whole ending.
* Arthur's [[spoiler: breakdown after he, Grandsanta and Bryony get stranded on the Cayo Confites in Cuba. It's almost like as if Arthur ''stopped believing'' in Santa, just like a kid growing up would do. Made even worse by Arthur's last line in that scene:]]
