1* Anytime "We'll Follow the Old Man" is performed.
2* General Waverly's speech to the men at the big show.
3* The look of utter pride on Susan's face the first time she sees her Grandfather in his old uniform.
4** Given her age and his attitude about wearing his dress uniform, it's likely this is the first time she's seen him in it since he came home from the war and she may not remember it due to her age.
5* Bob opening his Christmas present.
6* Bob trying to chase down Betty at the train station. He's trying his hardest to come up with the right thing to say on very short notice, and failing miserably. It shows that he has a chink in his armor after all.
7* The way Bob is acting when Betty has just heard about his plans for ''The Ed Harrison Show''. As unreceptive as she may be, his concern for her actually comes across as very sweet.
8* The looks on the faces of Bob and Betty when she [[spoiler:surprises him during their "I Wish I Was Back in the Army" number. She's obviously nervous coming out on stage since it's the first time she's seen him since coldly wishing him good evening before his TV appearance, and trying to side-eye him to catch his reaction. And Bob can hardly believe his own eyes.]]
9* The sheer lengths that Bob and Phil go to in order to help the General, first by recalling their troupe supposedly so they can use the barn for rehearsal but really so they can line his pockets (even if only temporarily) by filling all the rooms at the inn, and then by arranging the surprise reunion of their old unit. The logistics (not to mention the expense) are only briefly touched upon, mainly to show that they are aware of the issues involved and consider them to be worth it to help their old friend.
