* The completely bonkers scene in which Christian first meets the Bohemians, with sped-up footage, frantic editing and cartoon sound effects to make it feel like a live-action Looney Tunes cartoon.
-->Just then, an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was joined by [[Creator/HenriDeToulouseLautrec a dwarf dressed as a nun]].
** What sells it is Christian's utterly deadpan delivery, complete with the AsideGlance that breaks the fourth wall, freeze frame, and typewriter bell.
* Satine and Zidler during "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend," doing a routine where she strips him of all his valuables and even his ''clothes'', all the while casually discussing that evening's plans for the Duke.
* The dialogue with Satine and Zidler:
--> '''Satine:''' Oh, Harold, nobody could play [the Maharajah] like you could!
--> '''Zidler:''' ''(jovially)'' No one's ''going'' to.
* The entire scene between Christian and Satine in the elephant.
--> '''Toulouse:''' He's got a ''huge'' talent!
** And the CallBack to earlier when the Argentinean accidentally puts his hand on Christian's crotch:
--->'''Argentinean''': Nothing funny, I just like talent!
** Christian (believed by the Moulin crew to be the Duke) attempting to wake a fainted Satine by shaking her, which Zidler sees through his telescope as... [[NotWhatItLooksLike something else]].
--->'''Zidler''': Right on target!
* Satine attempting to smuggle Christian out of the elephant while distracting the Duke.
* All of the "Like a Virgin" scene.
* The Duke unexpectedly screaming "I JUST DON'T LIKE OTHER PEOPLE TOUCHING MY THINGS!" and Zidler's stunned reaction to it.
* The scene where everyone pulls wool over the Duke's eyes and improvise as Christian reinvents the whole Spectacular Spectacular!
** It crosses over into Awesome territory when you realize that because it is improvised, no one had any chance to plan, compare notes, or anything -- and yet somehow they all manage to contribute and create something that not only meshes, it tells a good story and convinces the Duke to sign on as their patron. While undercut by what happens with the Duke later, at that moment you can't help but smile along with him because of how ''well'' and audaciously they pulled it off!
** Becomes HilariousInHindsight, when you realize that the scene practically gives away the plot of the rest of the film.
** Tolouse immediately claims the role of the Magical Sitar That Can Only Speak The Truth and quickly improvises a demonstration of his lines but almost gets carried away.
--->'''Toulouse:''' (to Satine) You are beautiful! (to Zidler) You are ugly! (to the Duke) And you are a...\\
'''Everyone Else:''' (rushing to cover his mouth) NO!
** This exchange towards the end of the pitch:
-->'''Christian, Satine, Zidler, Bohemians:''' (singing) So exciting,
-->We'll make them laugh, we'll make them cry
-->So delighting-
-->'''Duke:''' In the end, should someone die?
-->''(The others glance at each other uncertainly, then continue with their song as if to say, "Let's skip that, shall we?")''
* Watching Warner, the Duke's bodyguard, try to pass himself off as part of the play during the GrandFinale by dancing badly and playing instruments as he tries to get to the gun.
* During the chaos of the ending, as fireworks are going off, with the audience thinking it's all part of the show, the Argentinian (who earlier had fallen unconscious to his disease) pops up out of the door and yells at everyone to get back to work.
