2	* Ella constantly uses ExactWords and LoopholeAbuse in attempts to warp any orders she gets, in a mix of funny and slightly awesome. Several standout examples happen when she's at finishing school, such as deliberately singing too high or low until the singing teacher wrangles her into the proper tone, or dancing over-dramatically when corrected in dance lessons.
3	* When Ella steals Hattie's precious wig and sells it for food on her trip to the giant's wedding. Especially since the baker she sold it to tells her it's the most beautiful one he's ever seen.
4	* When Ella and Char slide down the banister after Peter and Olga's wedding, Char cracks up so much over being caught that he can't speak properly for several seconds.
5	* Ella's constant acts of revenge against her step-family. One moment in particular is when she puts herbs over Dame Olga's dinner. Upon finding out that it will just make Olga fall asleep in the middle of the dinner party being hosted, the servant carrying out the meals takes it, saying it "serves her right".
6	* As in the fairy tale, Ella goes to the balls in a carriage made from a pumpkin. One night has Char ask about her oddly-orange carriage, causing Ella to hastily lie that orange carriages are common in Bast, the kingdom she says she's from. Later, after meeting the king and queen, Ella hears them trying to remember if they ever actually saw orange carriages in Bast.
