* Carly's grief over Michael's perceived death.

* Georgie's death, especially Maxie's reaction. Spinelli's reaction to it also deserves mention, because at that point he was Georgie's closest friend, and vise versa. Most heartbreaking is that ''he found Georgie's body'', and tried to wake her up and begged her to take a breath before completely losing it.
