1 | * Merton consoling his sister after a lousy time at a dance. One of the few, if not only moments she isn't repulsed by her brother. |
2 | ** ''Pleased To Eat You'' gets one of these. |
3 | -->'''Tommy:''' Do you forgive me?\ |
4 | '''Merton:''' No.\ |
5 | '''Tommy:''' Not even a little bit?\ |
6 | '''Merton:''' Oh, who am I kidding. I'm a fat man in a dress, and you just saved my life! Of course I forgive you! (Hugs Tommy) |
7 | ** And then Tommy reciprocates two minutes later, after T'n'T mock Merton and tell Tommy to come accept his crown as homecoming king without "that freakshow": |
8 | -->'''Tommy:''' My tie straight?\ |
9 | '''Lori:''' *unenthusiastically* Yeah, I guess.\ |
10 | '''Tommy:''' Good. Gotta look good for my people. *beat* So, you guys up for dinner at the Hungry Bucket?\ |
11 | * walks away from the school, arm-in-arm with Merton and Lori* |
12 | * In another episode, Merton feels guilty for breaking the heart of a younger (IE Freshman student) girl named Margret who has a crush on him. So, he consoles her and promises to be her friend. Aww. |
13 | * Just the entirety of the episode ''That Swamp Thing You Do''. It focuses on Tommy and Merton helping a friendly hippie-teacher turned swamp monster (It makes sense in context) reuniting with his one true love. |
14 | * When Tommy comforts "Scary Terri" and gives her a confidence boost. And he's pretty much the ''only'' person in the school to be nice to her. |
15 | ** Just consider, Terri is clearly an expy of [[Literature/{{Carrie}} Carrie White]]. Not only is Tommy nice to her, but [[spoiler:after her dance breakdown, he cheers her up and gives her a more optimistic outlook on life, leading to her going on to be a great bowler]]. Essentially, the episode is what could have happened if ''Carrie'' hadn't have had such a horrible ending. |
16 | * When Lori and Tommy are watching the end of Merton's death tapes (in ''Stone Free'') and he tells Tommy how much of a good friend he is (and combines this with Crowning Moment of Funny when he berates Lori for dating Tommy instead of him). |
