History Heartwarming / Antman

*** It turns into a mix of this and CrowningMomentOfFunny when the other crazy ants decide they all want to greet Scott too.

** While gearing up his ants for the Stark compound heist Scott gives each ant in line a little pat on the rump as they file through.

* Small one, and a little odd given the circumstances, but when [[spoiler: Cross shoots Hank,]] Hope yells "Dad!" which is probably the first time in years she's called him dad.

--->'''Cassie:''' Mommy, is daddy a bad man? I heard some grown-ups talking. They said he was bad.

* At the end, [[spoiler: after Hank talks to Scott about coming back from the Quantum Realm, he takes a moment to muse: "Is it possible...?" for Janet to come back as well. Hank is an old scientist, one of the world's best, and his mind is no less sharp despite his age. He might make the journey into the science of the Quantum Realm once more, and with hard work and experimentation, see his first love again.]]

** an alternate reason she loves it is because her father gave it to her

!!Comic:

* In the ''Ant-Man: Season One'' comic its revealed that Hank had intended to name the Particules after his deceased wife, but his father forced him to use their surname.

* Scott's first scene shows him in what seems to be a ruthless prison fight with [[FluffyTheTerrible Peaches]], a fellow inmate. After punching Peaches across the face, instead of getting his ass kicked in return it's revealed that it's a ritual for anyone getting out of prison, and Peaches plus all the other inmates are soon to embrace Scott to show they're happy his sentence is up.

* The fact Scott cared so much about Antony, his flying ant mount.

* Luis dragging out the guy he knocked out earlier just to save him from [[spoiler:the implosion]]. He's "one of the good guys" after all.

** Luis takes time to drag a guard he'd previously decked out of the building before it implodes.

* Scott's ApologeticAttacker tendencies and obvious admiration towards [[spoiler: Falcon]] shows that even with the incident in Sokovia. People still look up to and respect the Avengers.

** Considering all the time they took to made sure that civilians were safe, and that they risked [[spoiler: and lost]] their lives to do so, it might as well be ''because'' of what happened in Sokovia.

-->'''Hank:''' It's too late for me, but not for you. This is your chance, your chance to earn that look in your daughter's eyes, to become the hero that she already thinks you are. It's not about saving our world. It's about saving theirs.

* Hank's PatrickStewartSpeech to Scott.
-->'''Dr. Pym:''' Scott, I've been watching you for a while, now. You're different. Now, don't let anyone tell you that you have nothing to offer. Second chances don't come around all that often. I suggest you take a really close look at it. This is [[MyGreatestSecondChance your chance]] — [[TheAtoner to earn that look]] in your daughter's eyes. To become the hero that she already thinks you are. It's not about saving our world; it's about saving ''theirs''. Scott, I need you … to be the [[TitleDrop Ant-Man]].
* [[spoiler:[[WhamLine "He said yes."]] Welcome to the Avengers, Mr. Lang. You deserve it. What's even better is that Sam, whom Scott accidentally fought, vouches for Lang as a new member or at least an ally for the New Avengers.]]

--->'''Maggie:''' No, he's not bad. Daddy just gets confused sometimes, you know?

* When Scott's in [[spoiler: the Quantum Realm]], he sees [[https://40.media.tumblr.com/7ba0d42a74ceedcd597c26e5c1a408a5/tumblr_inline_nrsylfK0wF1qi6zcz_540.png flashes]] of what seems to be [[spoiler: Janet Van Dyne]]. Her presence shows that Hank has a chance at [[spoiler: saving his wife]], and, seeing how she appears multiple times, could have helped save Scott, as she could have thought that [[spoiler: her husband]] was finally coming back to save her, but as he was badly injured, she helped him return instead.

*** It;s the way Scott talks to him like he's a puppy that sells it
-->'''Sott''': 'Das a goo boy!
