* In the episode "When I Grow Up...", Shawn fears about growing up and having a job until Barney and the kids show him all the different and fun future careers. What makes this episode the most touching and memorable is the ending: Shawn is no longer scared of being an adult, but now he only has one fear: that he can't be friends with Barney anymore when he grows up. The purple dino gently reassures him otherwise, claiming that no matter how big Shawn gets, they'll always be friends "forever and ever".

* The song [[http://youtu.be/BEoSM1tdfr8?t=29m33s Friends Are Forever]]. This song is sung by Michael and Amy's mother and the song is about how friendships will last forever, when they're make-believe. This is a heartwarming/tearjerker song because it portrays the almost sad idea that a friend might and will eventually leave. That's why imagination and pretend is so important because your make-believe friends will last forever.
