Heartwarming / This Is the End

  • Emma Watson reuniting with the guys after breaking into their house, being genuinely relieved to see them alive and thankful for their help. The men are in turn gracious to her, welcoming her into the house and letting her take a rest upstairs.
    • The conversation they have outside the room starts off pretty heartwarmingly, with James calling out Seth for suggesting they feed Emma all the bad food they don't want, Danny looking forward to asking her questions about the Harry Potter films and Craig referring to her as a little sister. Though it goes downhill really fast when they start arguing.
  • Craig's Heroic Sacrifice to buy the others time to escape from a demon. Before doing it, he says that he's lived a selfish life and that his last act on Earth should be to help others. And that selflessness is what allows him to be assumed into Heaven.
    • Making it even more heartwarming is the fact that Craig was the only one of the guys who didn't know that self-sacrifice would get him raptured. For all he knew, he was performing a regular Heroic Sacrifice just because it was the right thing to do.
  • Seth letting go of Jay's hand when he realizes his presence is preventing Jay from getting into Heaven. He does this even though Jay is willing to lose his chance at being raptured to save him, and even though he's dangling right over Satan's mouth. Again, this selflessness ultimately saves him.
