| 1 | * When D.A. loses her book bag and self-confidence in "Blows its Top". |
| 2 | * Keesha's HeroicBSOD and subsequent ten-minute retirement in "Gets Ants in Its Pants". |
| 3 | * Tough girl Wanda actually cries in "Holiday Special" when her favorite toy from early childhood, which she'd intended to give away to other children who otherwise wouldn't get Christmas presents, gets mulched up and melted down into plastic pellets instead and she is forced to watch it all in horror. |
| 4 | ** Arnold, who's responsible for accidentally destroying her toy, feels guilty. What's worse is that the scene comes right after he squees that she likes the gift that he got her, not knowing she was the recipient. |
| 5 | ** Also, in the same episode, the Bus hitting itself with the Recycling Ray, since it has to hit ''everything'' that's made of recycled materials, even itself. The fact that it's still smiling just makes the scene all the more unsettling. |
| 6 | * The episode wherein Wanda gives up her pet "Bella". For ''any'' kid, this can be tough to watch. It gives a pretty good {{Anvilicious}} aesop about not keeping wild animals as pets (Even though American Bullfrogs ''are'' often kept as pets), but it's one that's needed. The producer's segment shows Susan crying over it - which if you believe the theory of Wanda and Tim growing up to become Susan and Malcolm, makes it even more sad |
| 7 | * In the butterfly episode, Janet mocks Phoebe's suggestion of making butterflies the school mascot but that's not the TearJerker. The TearJerker is when Janet [[ManipulativeBastard suggests that Phoebe is sabotaging them because they're playing her old school]]. The rest of the class immediately turns on Phoebe, to her obvious fear and confusion. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Nonetheless, she maintains a strong stand and displays to the class the reasons for her suggestion throughout the episode.]] |
| 8 | * Mikey's first appearance has one if you look more closely. Imagine being in Carlos' shoes and having all of your closest friends react to the idea of your brother even showing up like you're calling down doomsday. |
