Track 1: Can You Picture That?

  • Hannah admits to Nora that she can't remember her parents because Nora has been caring for her from a young age, and that she's done a great job.

Track 2: True Colors

  • The band performing the titular song to express their understanding and forgiveness of Nora.

Track 3: Exile on Main Street

  • When the band track Animal down after he runs away, Floyd stumbles over what to say to him before deciding to sing "Bridge Over Troubled Water" which Animal immediately recognises as the "baby song" that Floyd used to sing to him.
  • Floyd has always reined in Animal and looked after him, but here, we see the reason why he does so, and it's PRECIOUS. Animal was left on Floyd's doorstep as a baby, in a cage, with only a note saying "KEEP" left behind. Floyd immediately took the infant in and gave him his moniker after the baby tried to bite him. Floyd isn't just Animal's handler, bandmate, and friend… Floyd is the one who raised him. Floyd may not be Animal's biological father, but he is his daddy.
    • After the flashback ends Floyd opens the door to the Shack and finds Nora, who's been homeless since her sister kicked her out, sitting on the doorstep much like Animal's cage was. She finally admits that she doesn't have anywhere to live and Floyd and Animal invite her inside, with the latter muttering "Keep".
  • Sofia Carson comes to help out the band as Lips used to babysit her as a kid and comes up with a song for them but they insist she record it with Zedd instead. Even then, she outright sings in the song that they came up with it so they get credit.

Track 4: The Times They Are A-Changin'

  • Janice spends the entire episode trying to get Nora and Hannah to reconcile. She gets nowhere until she reveals to Hannah that she had a twin sister, but they had a falling out; Janice doesn't even know where her sister is. This finally pushes Hannah to try and make things up with Nora, and the sisters are on good terms again. Janice might be a little out there, but this episode shows that she's truly a sweet person.
  • Moog's dedication to the band is put on full display when Nora finally listens to the mix tape: it's a collection of remastered versions of the band's songs, all of which were played at concerts he attended. He truly loves the band and wants to help them out of loyalty and love for their music.
  • Nora realizing why the Electric Mayhem is so close; they've spent all of their time together supporting each other and doing what they love most. Some bonds are stronger than blood...

Track 5: Break On Through

  • Animal's hallucination sees him holding his baby-self, who tells him that he's drawn to Nora because they were both abandoned at a young age and he feels that he needs to protect her. When Nora's getting ready for bed at the end of the episode, Animal is seen curled up asleep next to her.

Track 6: Fortunate Son

  • After Dr. Teeth's mother Tina vocally disapproves of her son choosing to keep being a musician instead of a dentist, she tells her husband Gerald to back her up. Gerald, who up until this point has only ever spoken when agreeing with his wife, gives his own opinion: that even though Dr. Teeth won't take over their dental practice, he's still fulfilled his promise to "bring smiles to millions" by making people happy with his music, and that he's fully supportive of his son's choice. This moves Tina enough to approve as well, and she and Gerald both gather up Dr. Teeth in a group hug.

Track 10: We Will Rock You

  • After Moog and Hannah have tried and failed to convince the band members to come back, Animal is the one who manages to get them all come running, with two words: "Nora gone!" Everyone immediately puts everything on hold to come help find her.
    • Even better: The last one Animal gets to is Dr Teeth, who's about to go off on a cruise with Penny. She's clearly the one most eager for the cruise, planning out everything they're going to do... then Animal shows up, yells "NORA GONE!" and in the very next scene the band is all back and gathered and Penny's with them. Even she cancelled the cruise without hesitation, just to come help.
  • Despite their previous disapproval of his music career, Dr. Teeth's parents are in the audience for the Hollywood Bowl concert. His mother proudly says "that's my boy!" when he points them out.
