* There's a nice scene where a depressed Heather hangs out with Zack in a garage. At first, he can't figure out why the little girl seems so sad, until he realizes that she's homesick. He completely drops his {{Jerkass}} facade and agrees to help her make a necklace to make her feel better.
** And at the end of the movie, she's seen wearing it! Aww.
* At the end of the film, the four main kids have gotten past their issues and start dating each other:
** Zack drops his phony delinquent act and becomes a genuinely nice guy, who then hooks up with Trish, who in turn drops her IceQueen persona.
** Mud gains confidence and the respect of his peers and hooks up with Gaby, who has gotten over her (probably parentally inspired) weight issues.
