Tear Jerker / Luigi's Mansion 3

• Polterpup's possible fate if King Boo manages to defeat Luigi and capture everyone. While he seems to have escaped the trap or has just been deemed not worth the hassle, he's still stuck in hostile territory all alone in the middle of nowhere with no one to help him and unable to save Luigi and friends. If King Boo doesn't decide to come for him next, that is.
• You can capture Morty. You can do this right when he begins developing and editing his new movie, rendering it unfinished. It hurts a lot less if you wait until you defeat and scare off the Polterkitty for the first time, where he finally finishes it. If you do capture Morty, Luigi doesn't look very happy about it.
  • However, either way you do it, or even if you don't capture him at all, having the entire hotel destroyed at the end of the game with the studio and all the custom floors means the movie never gets released to the public outside the studio anyway. Poor Morty just can't catch a break, no matter what.
• The last section of the game consists in following Mario to the top of the hotel's rooftop in order to rescue Peach. However, right before the final boss fight, as soon as Luigi catches up to him at the top, Mario has suddenly gone from excited and impatient to despairing, distraught and panicked after seeing Peach trapped in a portrait, and Luigi talks to him, he pleads his brother to do something to free her.
  Mario: (panicking) Luigi! Come on! Please, help! Luigi!
  • After that, Mario sobs over Peach's portrait, and if you don't quickly use the Dark-Light Device to free her from the painting, he will start crying again after a few seconds. It's even worse when you remember that unlike most times, there's literally nothing Mario can do to save Peach in this situation. Of note, you have to hand it to Charles Martinet for making Mario's cries suddenly sounding so genuinely realistic. And no, it does NOT. HELP. AT ALL.
    Mario: Oh, no... Oh, no! OH, NO!!! (his scream dissolves in sobs of grief)
