!!1995 Film:
* The entire scene of the girls stealing Sara's locket from Minchin's office. Lottie pretends to be crying so loudly that it distracts Amelia. After trying to quieten Lottie, Amelia runs down to the kitchen to get Sara (because she can calm Lottie down). By the time they get back upstairs, the girls have the locket, and Lottie [[MoodWhiplash cheerfully walks past Amelia and Sara]]. Additionally Minchin comes back early and opens the door to her office, so Becky screams to distract her. Becky stutters for a few seconds while the rest of the girls clear out of the door before saying "I thought I saw a mouse". Minchin rolls her eyes and turns to walk into her office, bumping into the door (which had been closed by Ermengarde).
* When the girls wake up to find their room decorated with all the finery, Becky reacts with an "oh my ''Lord''" and tells Sara she may have gone too far - because apparently her imagination can do anything.
** When they see the food:
--> '''Becky:''' I'm a little scared by all of this.
--> '''Sara:''' Me too. You think we shouldn't eat it?
--> '''Becky:''' I'm not ''that'' scared!
* Lavinia believing her hair is falling out thanks to Sara's 'curse'. She sees a couple of stray hairs in her brush and does an EyeTake before fainting.
* Sara and Becky getting their revenge on Miss Minchin for abusing that poor chimney sweep: pouring soot into the drawing room chimney and giving Minchin a face full.
* Miss Amelia's reaction to Sara suggesting she elope with Francis. She gives the girl a "how dare you", while doing her best to sound like she's not turned on by the idea.

--> "I am getting very old," she wrote; "you see, I shall never live to have another doll given me. This will be my last doll. There is something solemn about it. If I could write poetry, I am sure a poem about 'A Last Doll' would be very nice. But I cannot write poetry. I have tried, and it made me laugh. It did not sound like Watts or Coleridge or Shakespeare at all."

* Miss Minchin's flights of rage in the face of Sara's composure. Even Lavinia and Jessie find it funny to watch.

* Three of the Carmichael children go to visit the Indian Gentleman to cheer him up, though Janet (the eldest) says that they have to do it very quietly because he is ill. Her younger brother doesn't quite understand this.
