* Alise is a quick learner. After spending a day with Lucas she knows him well enough to track him down and flush him out of hiding. She is always just a second too slow or looking in a likely-but-wrong place, but it is clear that she's pressing Lucas far more than the boggs ever did. She eventually catches him.

* Odette's reaction to being kidnapped and held by Sir Rothbart is one long CMOA. You'd think that she'd go into full on damsel mode and spend her time as a human quivering in terror from this very powerful evil sorcerer who murdered her father in cold blood and can become a monster at the drop of a hat, yes? ''Nope.'' No matter what he does, how much he threatens her, she tells him that she will ''die first'' rather than give in and marry him. She had nothing, no power, no weapons, no back-up, but she still refused to give in. What a badass.

* Uberta gets kidnapped by Sir Clavius to be used as leverage against Derek and Odette. Is Uberta cowed by the fact that Clavius is an evil magician and could probably kill her at any time? '''NO'''. She spends all her time ordering Clavius and his minion around when she's not throttling Clavius for having the nerve to ruin her birthday. Clavius simply wants her to shut up and is on the [[PityTheKidnapper verge of an aneurysm]] but his henchman Knuckles keeps obediently doing what Uberta wants.

* Derek manages to survive all of the traps that Knuckles has set for him, culminating in a final battle between the two over a cliff, leading to a ''volcano''. After Derek defeats him, he proves to be the bigger man by sparing Knuckles' life, [[UngratefulBastard a sentiment that Knuckles doesn't return]]. Knuckles gets his comeuppance later when Derek plummets Knuckle's trolley over a river of lava, ''with Knuckles still in it''.



* Odette saves Derek from a bog in her swan form.

to:

* Odette saves Derek from a bog in her swan form. She later saves him several times in the film by distracting the villains long enough for Derek to land the crucial blow.


Added DiffLines:

* Jean-Bob warns Puffin that he's concentrating on the upcoming obstacle course and that he ''will'' punish him if he's distracted again. After closing his eyes, Whizzer tries to approach from behind and imitates Puffin's voice for clues on the location of the Forbidden Arts. Jean-Bob, without turning around, getting up and opening his eyes, beats the ''snot'' out of Whizzer before tossing him away.

** Odette's animal friends each get a turn to help out as well - Puffin realizes Derek needs his bow and Jean-Bob and Speed work together to get it back from the bottom of the lake, facing the crocodiles again in the process. Jean-Bob also rushes to Derek's aid when Rothbart stuns him during the battle, and without that intervention Rothbart certainly would have done Derek in.

He could have tried his luck and simply thrown the rock he had but if he missed then Odette was a goner so he jumped. That way he could better guide the rock as his vision cleared. Odette commissions a statue of him for this and its engraving states "Long live the Age of Goodness."]]
