  • In "TCKS", the whole Basketball Team gives Coach Korn a Group Hug his first day back to practice when he comes back from his father's funeral.
  • Korn being a Parental Substitute to Destiny, given her loss of her actual adoptive father/ uncle.
  • Despite initially being at odds with him, Louise eventually comes to respect Korn as a coach and lets him teach her to be more of a team player, freeing her from her father's pressure to be the star.
  • In "Great In The Living Room", we finally get to see the profile that Harper Schapira has been making about Korn: Rather than being the hit piece that the previous episodes were hinting at, the profile paints him in a positive light, with Harper being optimistic about what he has to offer Westbrook, as well as what it has to offer him. Emma also speaks highly of him in her interview, despite having been angry with him at the time she agreed to give it.
  • It turns out that Olive is not as wealthy as previous episodes suggested. She actually lives with a middle-class family and has been misrepresenting herself in order to convince people that she belongs at Westbrook. Her teammates are quick to forgive her and assure her that she does belong. Destiny holds out longer than the others, being angry that Olive thought she had to lie in order to be friends with them, but even she comes around by the end of the episode. Her teammates also help her make amends when it turns out that the swimwear company she signed on with is engaged in unethical business practices.
  • Louise apologizing to Holly at the end of "This Is Our House". In return, Holly invites her in for dinner.
