** Creator/MalcolmMcDowell’s character in "Patterns", who ruined his life and pushed away everyone he cared about in his efforts to stop the world from falling into chaos, and the few times he tried to stop lead to the death of two of his friends. Hearing him crying as Dr. Critchley has him dragged off to be medicated is heartbreaking.

** Devon Morani from "If A Tree Falls". When he and his friends get into a car accident, [[spoiler: die and somehow come back to life]], he couldn't accept the miracle they received and did everything he could [[spoiler: in order to pass on]]. [[CruelTwistEnding However]], when he went to go pull his [[spoiler: body from the wreckage, he ends up accidentally releasing his friend and girlfriend's corpse from the car, at which they are discovered by a passing boatman and forced to pass on]]. The last shot is of Devon looking out over the lake with a [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone shellshocked expression]], dropping the rose that was in Bethany's hands, which sinks to where [[spoiler: his corpse remains while Bethany's cries TearsOfBlood]]. As the car had sunk further into the bottom on the lake, nobody will ever come across [[spoiler: his body, condemning him to an eternity of wandering the Earth with no hope of joining his loved ones in the afterlife]]. All because he couldn't accept the second chance granted to him.

* HilariousInHindsight: The message Henry Rollins ends "Dead Air" with becomes downright ironic when you factor in the response his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyRDDOpKaLM rant against rave music]] resulted in:

** The teenage girl in "My So-Called Life and Death". While she's meant to be seen as bratty and rebellious, it's not hard to empathize with her; her mother is incredibly demanding and clearly resents her, her younger brother is annoying and spoiled, [[ParentalNeglect and her father clearly doesn't care about any of them]]. [[spoiler: The woobie factor gets turned up ten-fold in the end when it's revealed that she's a ghost, bound forever to the vacation home she died in because of the house fire her younger brother caused, with the family she kept talking about wanting to escape from. After hearing her mother's plea to her, she relents and accepts her situation, with there being no indication that she'll ever be able to move on]].
