Line #24 Tearjerker/Haven


1	* "Spiral": The Chief [[spoiler: dies, literally exploding because he can no longer handle the pressure of keeping the town safe now that the Troubles have returned. Despite having spent the entire episode angry with him, Nathan is devastated and demands to know why Audrey didn't help his father like she's helped the other Troubled people.]]
2	* "Love Machine": Audrey II loses all her memories, and Audrey cries because she's lost the closest thing she has to a sister.
3	-->'''Audrey''': Do you know who you are?
4	-->'''Audrey II''': Yes. I am... I... am... Oh, god, I...
5	-->'''Audrey''': It's okay. I'll tell you. Your name is Audrey Parker. You like--you like matinees in empty theaters. You hate runny eggs.
6	-->'''Audrey II''': What else?
7	-->'''Audrey''': You're an FBI agent. You became an FBI agent because you felt that if you could help people, help people in trouble, that you could--that you could connect.
8	-->'''Audrey II''': I'm sorry, I don't remember any of that.
9	-->'''Audrey''': That's okay. That's okay, because I do.
10	-->'''Audrey II''': How?
11	-->'''Audrey''': (''tears flowing'') You're my friend. We're like sisters.
12	** The poor troubled person of the week have to pretty much isolate himself and give up his love interest for her own safety as the machines he repairs comes to life and will kill anyone who tries to get him to leave Haven.
13	* "Audrey Parker's Day Off": Thanks to a GroundhogDayLoop, Audrey is forced to see the following people get killed by a car in each loop: a little girl, Duke, Nathan, Chris, and finally the girl's father. The father's death ends the loop, and Audrey desperately begs for the loop to continue so he can live again but it doesn't. Audrey blames herself for his death and vows never to take a day off again.
14	* "301": Audrey bonds with the woman who was kidnapped alongside her, but their captor brutally kills her seconds before Audrey cuts through her ropes.
15	** Even more so on rewatch as it's implied the [[spoiler:Bolt-Gun Killer had killed her long before and was impersonating her]]
16	* "Stay" gets a two-for-one moment: Audrey gives up the dog she wanted to keep, because [[spoiler: she finds out she's probably going to disappear in two months.]]
17	* "The Farmer": Audrey's actions and inability to properly communicate start alienating Nathan and Duke. [[spoiler: The part at the end where Duke, who had at first balked at killing the Troubled man, sees the man's son start to suffer from his condition. Duke snuffs the man out, and though he's ended the Trouble for the man's family, he clearly hates himself.]]
18	** And then there's the look on Duke's face when he realizes that [[spoiler:Audrey, his friend, has brought him out here so he can murder someone.]]
19	* How did Dwight's daughter Lizzie die? She inherited his Trouble, the ability to attract bullets.
20	* "Magic Hour: Part 2:" Audrey's reaction to [[spoiler: Nathan's death]] is basically an episode-long HeroicBSoD, which is hard to watch, but it's her AnguishedDeclarationOfLove that pushes it into tearjerker territory.
21	* "Sarah": Duke trying so hard to change the past for the better, only to find that it was a StableTimeLoop and there was nothing he could have done.
22	* "Last Goodbyes" will have everyone crying for Will Brady. This poor man wakes up to find the entire town in a coma except for Audrey and with amnesia. Then his memory starts slowly coming back, [[spoiler: and we find that he was about tell his very good friend how much he ''really'' cared about her but the Bolt Gun Killer assaulted him and killed her, putting him in a coma. His family eventually gave up and pulled him off life-support, but his Trouble woke him up by transferring his degenerative coma to everybody else. To save the town (if you are in a degenerative coma without life-support, you will eventually die), he willingly returns to his coma. Audrey puts him back on life-support but is confident he will eventually wake up on his own.]]
23	** This tearjerker partially balances on some damn fine acting from both Creator/EmilyRose and Creator/NolanNorth. Yes, ''that'' Nolan North.
24	* "Thanks For The Memories": Nathan loses the son he never knew, the woman he loves, and his best friend as the barn implodes.
25	-->'''Nathan''': (''tears flowing'') Audrey. Audrey! '''Audrey'''!
26	* "Bad Blood": [[spoiler: Lexie]] is finally convinced by [[spoiler: William]] that her [[YourMindMakesItReal world is an illusion]], and the room immediately empties of people with this realization. Except for Rhonda, her best (and implied only) friend, who fades away with the others as [[spoiler: Lexie]] has to come to terms with letting her go.
27	* "Lay Me Down" and "Crush": Duke [[spoiler: being forced to killed Wade to protect Jennifer, and how clearly traumatised he is by it and the things his brother did and overcome with guilt, despite Jennifer's attempts to reassure him]]. It carries over into the next episode, where he is still struggling to process everything to the point of lashing out in frustration and self loathing, cumulating in him finally [[WhatTheHellHero calling out]] Audrey and Nathan for their self-centredness.
28	** Audrey's cold reaction makes it even worse—despite Duke repeatedly going out of his way and even risking his own life to help them, raising a good point about their actions (they aren't even trying all that hard to find another way, either), and being clearly upset and shaken, she just dismisses it all without a second thought. Nathan manages to make her see at the end, but it's a bit jarring for someone who has been so concerned and compassionate towards others.
29	* "Crush": Nathan, in tears, trying to convince Audrey to kill him to end the Troubles, telling her the pain of Haven is on them and this would be the most loving thing they could do. Audrey doesn't want to do it, but also knows he's right. The acting in this scene really sells it.
30	* "The Trouble With Troubles": When his wife Susie gets killed by a Trouble, Cliff wishes The Troubles never existed. It works, but Susie doesn't remember him and is married to someone else. [[spoiler:And then when the world is restored, Susie goes back to being dead, and William kills Cliff.]]
31	* "When The Bough Breaks": Whenever baby Aaron Harker cries, a random person in town dies. Everyone slowly falls into despair when they can't think of any way to solve this Trouble like they do the others. Eventually, they [[GodzillaThreshold resort to]] [[spoiler:giving Duke his Trouble back so he can kill Aaron's father and eliminate the Trouble.]]
32	** Not only that one of the victims of Aaron's cries was his own mother. Not only has he now lost both of his parents, they are both dead because of his Trouble. If Aaron ever finds out imagine his emotional turmoil.
33	* "The Lighthouse:" The scene in which Duke actually [[spoiler: kills Ben, which subverts the PreSacrificalGoodbye the scene had been setting up in just the ''worst'' way. Ben is saying goodbye to his son, and tells Gloria and Audrey he's going inside to get the baby's favorite blanket. This leaves them to muse about the existence of an afterlife. A gunshot breaks the calm. The baby starts crying, and nothing happens, which confirms that Ben is now dead. Duke exits the house, traumatized, and hands Gloria the blanket.]]
34	* "Speak No Evil": The revelation that Jennifer is dead, and poor Duke having to accept it to save Nathan.
35	* "Spotlight":
36	** Duke's ImportantHaircut as he sits crying, grieving Jennifer. This comes just after he reveals to Nathan that he was the one to bury her.
37	** Mara has all of Audrey's memories, which she mostly uses in this episode to torture Nathan.
38	* "The Old Switcharoo Part 2": Dwight learns that his sister was killed because she shared his Trouble. A crazy man broke into the hospital where she worked and starting shooting up the place, and she attracted the bullets.
39	* "Exposure": More of Duke's horrible childhood is revealed, and it's gut-wrenching: his junkie mother abandoning him and his brother after their father's death, leading Duke down the road to a life of smuggling and petty crime in order to survive. Until one day, in Boston, he randomly just meets her on the streets...[[spoiler: and she doesn't even recognize him, and propositions him for drugs. Damn.]]
40	* In 5x20, "Just Passing Through", [[spoiler:Nathan stops Lucy from killing James but then has to tell her that they have to let him die anyway.]]
41	* Vince's breakdown after [[spoiler:Dave's death]]. He sobs at [[spoiler:Dave's]] feet, begging him to come back. He then has a breakdown at the police station, waving a Stanley knife and accusing everyone of judging him for [[spoiler:not noticing Croatoan was possessing Dave]]. He has to be sedated. It's only after a stern talking-to by Gloria that he's finally able to grieve [[spoiler:Dave]] properly, openly crying as he holds Gloria's hand and asks her to stay with him.
42	* [[spoiler: Duke's]] HeroicSacrifice in the series finale.
