* The scene near the end after Doris is defeated and Lewis asks Goob to join the Robinsons. The look on Goob's face as he walks away is so sad, along with how he glances around as though he knows he has to [[spoiler: live with the guilt he very nearly ruined a perfect future for everybody. It's a small wonder he chose to walk away from potential adoption into the Robinson family; he likely feels he doesn't deserve a happy ending after all of it.]]
** Not to mention [[spoiler:Goob's reaction when he learns that Doris was using him the whole time. "Doris! I thought she was [[IJustWantToHaveFriends my friend]]..."]] ''Awwww.''
** [[spoiler:Goob being betrayed by Doris in the bad future. After all, he only wanted to mess with Lewis, not enslave all of humanity.]]

* Wilbur fading from existence because of Doris tampering with the past. Since this is only mere moments after Lewis was revealed to be Wilbur's father...it must have been traumatising for Lewis to [[ForcedToWatch watch his'''own son be unborn'''.]]

Hoo boy, where to begin? Considering that the protagonist is [[HeartwarmingOrphan an orphan]], the antagonist was once said protagonist's roommate and that this is a [[Tearjerker/{{Disney}} Disney film]], ''WesternAnimation/MeetTheRobinsons'' has a reputation for breaking hearts-a-plenty.



* Whoo boy, where to begin? Considering that the main character is a [[HeartwarmingOrphan orphan]] who's failed getting adopted countless times, the main antagonist [[UsedToBeASweetKid was once said orphan's roommate]] and that this is a Tearjerker/{{Disney}} movie, you can be certain it has tons of [[TearJerker saddening moments]].

* One punctuation mark: "?" Goob has finally given up his schemes for revenge...and he doesn't know what else to do with his life.
** Though goes into heartwarming, since Lewis's intervention in Goob's baseball game means the Bowler Hat Guy version will never exist.

* The phrase "Keep Moving Forward" will bring tears to people's eyes, especially for those using the phrase as in the movie: To keep trudging on as the {{Determinator}} no matter what, and ''especially'' when the film's final slate reveals the ArcWords came from no other than '''''Creator/WaltDisney''''' himself.

** Come to think of it, it's also the only time [[HarsherInHindsight Wilbur gets to see his biological grandmother]]. Likely after hearing stories from his father, it must've pained Wilbur to be able to see his real grandma abandon his own father as a baby. [[FridgeBrilliance It's no wonder Wilbur was reluctant to let Lewis see his mom]]. Aside from [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong fixing the timeline]], he spent his whole life with Lucile and Bud as his grandparents and seeing what great people they are; his ''biological'' grandmother is nothing but a stranger to him other than his father's stories.
