  • Marianne publicly kicking-out Roland while singing Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You), in response to his attempt to sweet-talk himself back into her graces by serenading her with C'mon Marienne, finishing with slamming a door on his wing.
  • Sunny breaking into the Bog King's castle. With some outside help, he manages to break into the heavily defended castle and gets out chased by an angry army of goblins.
  • The Bog King's successful raid on the fairy kingdom. His goblins ambush the guards and pin down everyone effortlessly. He then makes a bombastic entrance with stage explosions going off as his minions start up playing "Mistreated" and he power walks in. He's got the entire royal family at his mercy.
  • Marianne smashing through the skylight to attack the Bog King. She's been afraid of the Dark Forest ever since she was attacked there on her wedding day, but her sister's been kidnapped so she'll fight her way through a gauntlet of goblins to personally duel the man who kidnapped her.
  • Marianne and Bog King's sword fight. They both keep up with each other, with witty banter, and singing a song.
  • A small one, but Marianne and the Bog King admit to their own shortcomings with their first love.
    • Marianne realizes that she was so preoccupied with Roland's good looks that she didn't see him for the arrogant, power-hungry jerk he was. It takes a lot of maturity in one's self to admit your own shallowness in love.
    • The Bog King admits and is ashamed of trying to love potion a girl he fell in love with. Unlike most fictional characters who use love potions, he's not blaming someone else or the love potion's ineffectiveness, but his own selfishness.
  • Sunny and Pere catching up with the fairy army, riding Lizzy, handily upstaging Roland and his squirrel. Then Roland turns the army against him by reminding them that Sunny created the love potion in the first place. However, when Roland tries to taunt if Sunny loves Dawn, Sunny answers that he does, without shame. His confidence is enough that Roland has no choice but to let Sunny ride Lizzy alongside his army side-by-side.
  • It might have been love potion influenced, but Dawn gets in the way of Roland and Bog during their fight. Says something about what she will do for those she loves.
    Dawn: You leave my Boggy alone!
  • While usually a Dirty Coward, one has to give Roland credit for holding his own in his fight with Bog. He fights so well that it's not till Dawn and Marianne get involved that he starts using underhanded tactics.
  • After Roland love potions her, Marianne fakes being in love long enough to position him so that she can sucker punch him off the cliff.
