History Heartwarming / ToBoldlyFlee

* In the end, Luke isn't trying to live up to her in-story mentor and DarthVaderClone, the snob, but, rather, when the time comes for the "[[Franchise/StarWars like my father before me]]" line, she refers to her [[Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway real father]] as the example to which she aspires.

-->'''Nostalgia Chick:''' ''Disney/{{Pocahontas}}''...

* Critic and Chick's talking and actually being honest with each other's problems, with her reasoning for why she obsesses over Todd and his trying to explain that he feels useless.
** Sure, they wanna annoy the Hell out of Lupa, but Chick suggesting they prank call her to give Critic a moment of happiness is so sweet of her!
*** Becomes even better when WordOfGod says that Critic was nervous about confiding in her because he was scared she'd dig into his soft spots.
*** And when she realizes Critic is seriously hurting, she forgets all about Todd. It's a nice clue as to showing what man she has ''real'' feelings towards.
** He made them both coffee! That's so cute!
* Critic has a box of Cheerios next to his bed. Not only is it good for the heart but there's a heart on the box, it might as well be a photo of Ma-Ti.
** It's actually a box of [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/sketches/59-cheerios-commercial-contest Cheerios 2]], from one of Doug's oldest videos[[note]]written when he was in high school according to the TGWTG wiki and the first non-serial sketch uploaded to the TGWTG site[[/note]]. The fact that Doug made another box after auctioning the original on [=eBay=] is also touching.

* Luke and Snob's conversation about how online critics get to connect to millions of people, who can be considered a family.
** And thinking over the importance of critics existing in the world, even though people still go to see bad movies.
** Of course while giving a TakeThat to Creator/MichaelBay.

[[folder: Misc]]
* It would probably be safe to say that this entire web series' existence could be considered one huge CMOH.
* The fact that it's a long love letter to film itself. Especially clear in the latter half, but set up from the very beginning.
** Also serves as a love letter to the Critic from his creator. He dies all grown up, is finally able to be at peace, has saved humanity for the [[WebVideo/SuburbanKnights third]] [[ScoobyDoo time]], and now knows what a good character he is. What more could his fans ask for?

** It might've just been this troper, but I find it sweet that Lindsey was covering up Todd's face. At first, I had no clue why there was a big black box on the screen, then I realised it was the person playing the piano. And, watching one of Todd's videos that very day, I realised it was him.

'''Note:''' If you have not watched ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'' yet, then there will be spoilers below! Read at your own risk.

* Despite all the crap they were giving him, the Snob is quick to try and comfort/help [[spoiler:Ma-Ti!Spoony]] during his seizure.

* After how he's treated him in the last two specials, Critic's HeroicBSOD over [[spoiler:Phelous's apparent death]].

* [[spoiler: Nerd]] saving Critic's life both in the Dredd battle and later in part seven.

* Lupa choosing to trust Todd. She rejected him but it's pretty clear she still cares for him [[spoiler:and was horrified when she saw he was assimilated]].

* [[spoiler:Oancitizen's]] explanation of the plot, and how for every few bad movies there's always going to be a masterpiece, and that in the end to be able to experience just one truly excellent movie is worth "a thousand Transformers."

* [[spoiler:Doug Walker]] having a heart-to-heart with [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic his creation]] about the nature of character development and how the latter has changed him as a writer.
** Kudos should also be given for the way they both act in the scene. [[spoiler: Doug]] explains as best and as gently as he can that Critic's just a character in a fictional world, and shows none of his usual joy over his creation's suffering, while Critic remains (mostly) mature even though his entire existence literally just crashed around him.
** Even when freaked out, [[spoiler: Doug]] is still nice enough to offer his character a drink to soothe his nerves.

* The Critic [[spoiler:choosing to do the right thing and chose to stay in fiction so that his friends won't be wiped out of existence]]--fulfilling the whole "needs of the many" thing.

** Remember what set these events in motion in the first place - Critic was tired of being a pathetic loser who does nothing but rant angrily at nostalgia, he wanted to give his life meaning, and purpose. [[spoiler:Doug assures him that in the real world, nothing makes sense or matters, but in the story, he has purpose, and everything he does matters.]]
-->[[spoiler:Doug:]] It's like a house of cards - take one out, and the whole thing falls. You are that card.

* The Nostalgia Critic and [[spoiler: The Angry Video Game Nerd's handshake.]] They've come full circle.

--->[[spoiler:Nerd]]: It's been nice working with you, Critic.

* The look on Critic's face as he [[spoiler: absorbs the PlotHole]]. Finally, ''finally'', he's achieved inner peace.
* Once more, they might be villains, but there is something oddly heartwarming about Mechakara, Zod and Terl [[spoiler: accepting death together while quoting Shakespeare]].

* When Critic wakes up on [[spoiler:Doug's]] couch, his original hat is sitting on the arm.

* In the end, Luke isn't trying to live up to her in-story mentor and DarthVaderClone, the snob, but, rather, when the time comes for the "[[Franchise/StarWars like my father before me]]" line, he refers to her [[Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway real father]] as the example to which she aspires.

* Film Brain's and Luke's farewell scene. These guys had come a long way.

* Luke going berserk when Darth Snob told him that he and his master is going to make sure that the Nostalgia Critic becomes the next Tommy Wiseau.
* In the end, Luke isn't trying to live up to his in-story mentor and DarthVaderClone, the snob, but, rather, when the time comes for the "[[Franchise/StarWars like my father before me]]" line, he refers to his [[Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway real father]] as the example to which he aspires.

* Snob appearing to be a genuinely helpful, encouraging mentor to Luke. Seeing as the only other "mentoring" we've seen was Critic treating Film Brain like his lackey on a good day and like a waste of space on the rest, it is really quite heartwarming to see Luke honestly looking up to the Snob without it going into creepy borderline StalkerWithACrush territory, and Snob, in return, praising Luke and showing pride when Luke displays the skills he's been taught.

* Even know it was played for laughs, the quick bit with Bennett and [[Anime/CowboyBebop Ed]]!JesuOtaku playing around with the thermal detonator, if you ignore their past troubles (the three bad anime Bennett forced him to watch), was a cute little moment.

* [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick Seven of Eleven]] is about to kill JesuOtaku when WebVideo/ObscurusLupa appears, bedecked in the power gloves and boots [=JesuOtaku=] invented.

-->'''JesuOtaku:''' Well... I guess this is it...

* In the end, Luke isn't trying to live up to his in-story mentor and DarthVaderClone, the snob, but, rather, when the time comes for the "[[Franchise/StarWars like my father before me]]" line, he refers to his [[WhoseLineIsItAnyway real father]] as the example to which he aspires.

-->'''MarzGurl:''' ''WesternAnimation/TheLastUnicorn''...

** And DiamandaHagan's thank you was [[http://www.facebook.com/DiamandaHagan/posts/419997948065264 one of the nicest]].

* Even know it was played for laughs, the quick bit with Bennett and [[Anime/CowboyBebop Ed]]!JesuOtaku playing around with the thermal detonator, if you ignore their past troubles (the three bad anime he forced her to watch), was a cute little moment.

* Blink and you'll miss it, but after JewWario does a barrel roll, Critic quickly places his hand on Mickey's back to keep him from falling to the floor.

** Also serves as a love letter to the Critic from his creator. He dies all grown up, is finally able to be at peace, has saved humanity for the [[SuburbanKnights third]] [[ScoobyDoo time]], and now knows what a good character he is. What more could his fans ask for?

** The first phrase coming out of Critic's mouth, even when he's dancing over the DespairEventHorizon, is "how's Luke?". With this and everything he does for Film Brain, he's finally proved himself worthy of the love they had for him in ''{{Kickassia}}'' and ''SuburbanKnights''.

* Critic's first act as the PlotHole was to ask Santa Christ to bring Spoony back, and tell his friends that everything was okay. The warmth and love of our favorite BigGood, and the fact that he and Critic obviously made up since ''{{Kickassia}}'', is welcomed after all the pain the movie brought everyone.

-->'''Oancitizen:''' Thanks... ''Film/AloneInTheDark'' was pretty good too.

-->'''Film Brain:''' Mine was {{Equilibrium}}.

-->'''MarzGurl:''' ''The Last Unicorn''...
-->'''Nostalgia Chick:''' ''{{Disney/Pocahontas}}''...

-->'''Linkara:''' Hey, remember ''The Man Who Fell To Earth'' review? That was brilliant...
-->'''Oancitizen:''' Thanks... ''Alone In The Dark'' was pretty good too.

*** Especially after the crew had been more than willing to hand him over to Zodd and Turrell before. Clearly, Critic putting his life on the line to rescue the away team has proven to them he is a changed man.

* Judging by his appearance at the end to a depressed Film Brain and the (hilariously muppety) cameo for a confused Chick in her following review of ''CutthroatIsland'', it's almost a definite that Critic is spiritually looking after his friends in the best way he can and will always try to be there when they need him.
