History Tearjerker / Galavant

* In Season 2, Even Queen Madelena (of all people?) gets her own heart wrenching moment as well. Right before Madalena goes to a regal roast event held by two other queens we see a flashback of said queens and Madelena as Children. Madalena was poor at that time and the first time they met the soon- to- be queens specifically told Madalena she could ride with them in their carriage only to make fun of her for being poor and drive away.

* Richard singing a song about what occupations he could do since he isn't king anymore and it ends with him stating that he has no idea who he is if he isn't a king.
** Doubles as a CMOF because of his total ignorance of what other jobs entail: Blacksmith - "I would hit the thing, with another thing, 'til I made a different thing!" Farmer - "Then I'd plant some eggs, then a couple pigs, then a yummy chocolate cake! . . . No, anyone can plant a cake!" Brewer - "I would pick the grapes and peel the grapes and stomp them into beer!"
** If you listen closely during the last couple of lines, one of the other jobs he suggests is a *wet nurse*.

* Gareth realizing that Madelena betrayed him and took up dark magic behind his back. After he sadly tells her that he won't become an evil couple with her, Madelena leaves with sarcastic thanks for all the heroes, then turns to Gareth and sincerely says "Thank you for the love."

** Sid's reaction to when he thinks that Galavant [[spoiler: was killed]] is also pretty heartbreaking

* The Season 1 finale, especially because a second season renewal seemed unlikely, because [[spoiler: the cliffhanger ending leaves so many UNHAPPY endings. Galavant and Richard are on the run together, Isabella's been locked in what's essentially a dollhouse by her 8-yr-old fiance/cousin after being separated from her true love, the Valencians have lost their kingdom and their jewel, Sid's being held hostage by Gareth in case Galavant fails to protect Richard, and Gareth becomes king at the cost of sending his best friend away to an uncertain fate. The only good characters that get a happy ending are Chef and Gwynne, simply because they're a couple now, while the only person that's really better off by the end is Madalena, who has more than proven herself the show's BigBad.]]

** In the Finale Richard finally decides to stand up and fight his own battles. To bad that means he now has to fight his best friend in a duel to the death.

* ''King Richard'', of all people, gets one in the second episode when Madalena rejects him. It's like watching a kicked puppy.
-->'''Madalena''': You're unlovable. [[ParentalSubstitute Pearl]] only loved you because your parents paid her to.
* Richard sets up a roast for himself, letting the Valencians let off some steam and really have fun for the first time. He's actually genuinely into it, and the insults keep getting whackier... [[MoodWhiplash until the Eunuch makes fun of him for not realizing]] [[CheatingWithTheMilkman his wife is sleeping with the jester]], [[OffWithHisHead and Richard orders his execution]].
* Another one for Richard (!), in that, just after he actually strikes up an odd friendship with the Jester (even learning his first name), Madalena throws the Jester into the worst dungeon because he dumped her.
