** Just before this, we have the Reverend Mother and Deloris' reconciliation. Not only is there her ArsonMurderAndLifesaving bit followed by a sincere thank you, but they share a hug (after Vince almost shoots Deloris, both women are shaky and seem to need it). Then she declares they have to get back to San Francisco for the concert. When Deloris questions her on this, both for her change of attitude and the fact she had planned to resign, she turns and smiles, confiding to Deloris alone, "We can't ''both'' of us leave."

* The finale. Earlier in the movie the Reverend Mother and Deloris disagreed on whether to sing a traditional performance or one of Deloris' more upbeat versions for the concert with the Pope, with the RM eventually losing when they put it to a vote with the other nuns. When the time finally comes, Deloris leads the choir in a traditional song first, before switching to her style.

** The Hail Holy Queen song has a number of thoughtful touches throughout, even in the background. All of the singers look extremely enthusiastic and joyful while performing, clearly having taken Deloris's early lesson of "...it's not just quacking, this is rejoicing." to heart. Shots showing the congregation in the background show a number of people swaying, clapping or otherwise getting into the rhythm (one brief shot shows a character very enthusiastically swinging their arms to the music). The response to the new upbeat presentation from the choir is evident even before the applause at the end.
