1	* Stephen's reaction when he finds out Simon got Cassandra a bigger and better version of his wireless.
2	-->'''Cassandra:''' It was a much bigger present from you. Simon didn't have to save—or work for it.\
3	'''Stephen:''' No, that was my privilege.
4	* Topaz, the stunning artist model, puts on a dowdy dress, unflattering makeup, and styles her hair unbecomingly so that Rose will be the center of attention at the Cottons' dinner party. For all their quarreling, Topaz still puts Rose's happiness ahead of her own.
5	** Double dose of heart-warming for Mortmain's reaction. He begs her to change into her usual exotic garb and let her hair down: "I have little enough to be proud of. Let me at least be proud of my wife." The emotion is hard to convey outside the scene itself, but the implication is that Mortmain, a proud but poor man who usually neglects his family, considers his wife his jewel.
6	* Book!Mrs Cotton in contrast to her film version self is extremely kind and considerate to Cassandra's family, just as much as Simon. Cassandra describes her as "wonderfully generous - and wonderfully tactful" when, rather than pressing money on the family after Simon and Rose get engaged, she insists on buying one of Aunt Millicent's fur coats from them for two-hundred pounds.
7	* Rose thanking Stephen when he [[spoiler: tells Neil the truth about her feelings for him.]] Especially sweet because out of the three Mortmain siblings, she is the one he has the least interaction with.
8	--> '''Rose:''' I'll thank you for as long as I live.
9	** [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy Stephen's reason for doing so is completely selfless.]]
10	* When Topaz expresses her doubts to Cassandra about her father needing her around.
11	--> '''Cassandra:''' I suppose it wouldn't be enough that Thomas and I need you?
12	* A little backstory tied in with Aunt Millicent's bearskin coat:
