History TearJerker / TheMostPopularGirlsInSchool

* [[spoiler:Tanner]] cheating on [[spoiler:Tristan]]. Especially sad given that their relationship was shown to be one of the strongest and most loving on the show. [[spoiler:To be fair, Tanner was drunk, but still...]]

* [[spoiler:Tanner outright ''crying'' when he thinks that Tristan broke up with him in Episode 79. We even see tear streaks on his doll's face!]]

-->'''Brittnay:''' ''(cuts her off)'' No, before you say anything, just hear me out. This... this isn't for me. [[spoiler:Being a model's always been your dream, not mine. All I've ever wanted to do is be popular, kick ass, and give handjobs. And there's no better place to do that than Overland Park. Besides, if I don't go back, Shay Van Buren's gonna be the most popular girl in school. And I'll ''die'' before I let that pig-tailed labradoodle ruin the legacy that you worked so hard to build. It's for the best, Mackenzie.]]

-->'''Brittnay:''' No yeah, it's fine. It's just... ''(quietly)'' fuck. C'mon Trisha, let's go home.

* Episode 82:

* [[spoiler:Tanner]] cheating on [[spoiler:Tristan]]. Especially sad given that their relationship was shown to be one of the strongest and most loving on the show.
--> [[spoiler:'''Tanner''']] ''(brokenly)'' What is wrong with me? I'm an ''awful'' person.

* Shay's gradual ButtMonkey status in Season 5 can be seen as this, since most of it comes from her only minimally provoking others.

--->'''Trisha:''' [[spoiler:She doesn't need me anymore.]]

-->[[spoiler: '''Brittnay''': What are we gonna do now?]]
-->[[spoiler: '''Mackenzie''': There's nothing we can do... We're not gonna be allowed to cheer with five members. We might as well pack our bags, go home, and kiss Oak Park mall, goodbye, one last time...]]

--->'''Trisha''': [[spoiler: She doesn't need me anymore.]]

* Jonathan in Episode 4. Even though he's a jerk to everyone the entire length of the episode (and for most of the other episodes, in fact), it's quite sad to see him start crying at the end, and is especially hard for anyone who has trouble making friends in real life.

--->'''Trisha''': [[spoiler: She doesn't need me anymore.]]

* [[spoiler: Brittnay sounding ''genuinely'' hurt and betrayed that Mackenzie used her own anger toward Jenna Darabond as part of her plans by blowing up Brittnay's car herself.]]

* The brief moment of despair from the cheer squad when [[spoiler: Ashley Katchadourian has left her own team for Atchison's and because of the rules that there must be five or more members in order to cheer, they will be automatically disqualified due to a lack of one member. Mackenzie was on the verge of giving up and sounded like she's about to cry, judging from her voice.]]

** [[spoiler: Brittnay sounding ''genuinely'' hurt and betrayed that Mackenzie used her own anger toward Jenna Darabond as part of her plans by blowing up Brittnay's car herself.]]
** Trisha being told by Brittnay that [[spoiler: Brittnay is now working with Shay Van Buren to take Mackenzie down, and she doesn't want Trisha involved so she's cutting her out. When Trisha tells Mackenzie and the other Trisha the news, it's very clear that she understands exactly what Brittnay meant and has been very hurt by it.]]
