  • Pictures of Linda and Blu's life together posted around her house, along with all of their interactions, a sequence that many people can feel if they have a particularly clever pet.
  • Rafael with his children all around him.
    Jewel: Aww, precious, aren't they?
    • Also with his wife, even after her "singing." And also for a few seconds at the end, he and his family are in the tree, together.
  • The trolley scene, where the three set the romantic mood for Blu and Jewel. Even though there are funny parts scattered over it.
  • Pedro hugging the crying Nico and Tulio hugging the crying Linda.
  • Every time Linda hugged Blu.
  • Linda and Blu's daily routine(and their secret handshake) that proves how much they've been through and how close they really are.
  • It's not what you think up here, it's what you feel in here.
Blu: But I thought you loved Carnival.
Rafael: I do! But I love my family much more.
  • The final moments in and out of the plane(and the kiss and Blu's flight) which follow:
    Jewel: Hey, It's okay, we'll figure this out together, alright?
    Blu: I'm not going to let you go! We're chained-to-each-other birds, remember?
    • Blu with his wing protectively around the hurt Jewel.
  • Linda and Tulio's frantic search for Blu, and their formed relationship.
    • The final hug shared by Linda, Tulio and Fernando.
    • The end and credits reveal that Tulio and Linda got married, adopted Fernando and now live in Brazil.
    • Tulio and Linda parasailing.
  • Linda: That's my big brave boy.
  • The Earn Your Happy Ending trope taken to it's logical conclusion: So beautiful is it now that Blu can dance with the other birds, but now in his children we can see him finally fly. Contrast that with the freezing bird afraid and family-less in the winter, and this ending will make you cry Tears of Joy.
