* The GA's final dressing down of some members of the searching party is quite snarkily funny and strongly suggests she and Nancy are NotSoDifferent after all.

!!''Winter Holiday''
* Dick and Dorothea go to sleep on the houseboat, since Captain Flint is away. Then Dorothea sees a man approaching with suitcase. It's Captain Flint, returned unexpectedly, and ''he'' has to sleep on the houseboat since Nancy has mumps. Captain Flint's reaction to finding two strangers on his houseboat (and the cabin filled with rabbit skins, mittens and empty cans) is hilarious.

* In ''Swallowdale'', John uses the agreed-upon signal (owl calls) to tell the Amazons they're ready to leave. Unfortunately, he does this twice, in the middle of the day, while [[TheDreaded the Amazons' Great Aunt]] is within hearing range. HilarityEnsues.

!!''Swallows and Amazons'':
* In ''Swallowdale'', After retrieving the stolen treasure, Captain Flint/Uncle Jim carves a fish out of a piece of wood, writes "honesty is the best policy" on it, and puts it where the treasure was, so the thieves will get a shock when they come to find the treasure.
* When the Swallows return to Wildcat Island after winning the war, the Amazons tell them about their plan and how it went wrong.
--> '''Nancy:''' ''[about their reactions upon seeing the'' Amazon ''gone]'' Then we had a bit of an argument.
--> '''Peggy:''' A bit? It was a whole one and a half.
