1* Whilst he's drunk and makes a complete fool of himself at Chasers, there's a moment where David sticks up for Gareth and tells Donna, "Do not call my second-in-command an arse-faced weasel!".
2* [[spoiler:When David loses his job and Neil offers it to Tim, he recommends Gareth.]] They've always had an antagonistic relationship, so seeing Tim doing something nice for Gareth reminds the audience why he's the bigger man in the end.
3* From the finale:
4** When Chris makes fun of David's girlfriend and David tells him to fuck off.
5** "Never give up.".
6** After David stood up to Finchy and before Tim [[spoiler: got with Dawn]], we see both David and Tim hanging out with Gareth. Three men who have always rubbed each other the wrong way have decided to make the most of their respective situations and try being friends.
7** After [[spoiler: Tim and Dawn]] head off for somewhere more private after making out in front of everyone, the camera briefly returns to David and Gareth; while the latter looks befuddled as always by the mere implication of sex, David seems to be wearing something of a knowing, happy smile, which makes sense; as their ex-boss, he's probably more than aware of the UST between the pair and (in his own misguided way, since he thought of himself as the mentor and friend of his employees) he probably hoped it would work out.
8** In the last few moments of the series, Tim gives Gareth a peck on the cheek just before their Christmas photo is taken. Gareth actually smirks a bit and takes it in stride showing that, with all Tim's pranks, he does have a sense of humour after all. And David finally manages to make everyone laugh.
