** At the very end, Gregory asks Cassie not to give up on him yet, which is pretty sweet in itself. But from a meta perspective, it could also be seen as Steel Wool Studios understanding the backlash from Security Breach's launch and not wanting the audience to give up on them for this big expansion to the horrors of the Pizzaplex.

* During Chapter 4, after luring Glamrock Chica away, Cassie can sneak into her room, where a functioning arcade cabinet for Chica's Feeding Frenzy resides. Fully completing the minigame allows Cassie to obtain Glamrock Chica's voice box, and after the latter decides to rest in a nearby bathroom, [[VideoGameCaringPotential Cassie can return the voice box to its former owner, which also removes the trash bag lodged in her chassis]]. It's not much, but it's nice to at least have things be a little better for the robotic chicken.

** The official trailer for the DLC confirms that, yes, all '''three''' animatronics had survived. And though, sadly, Chica still seems to be in what's left of Afton's control, Roxy doesn't seem to be in that regard anymore, not even being hostile towards Cassie when she puts her hand on her favorite animatronic's shoulder.
** The trailer even confirms Cassie to actually be Gregory's friend, and something had happened beforehand to get them separated before the events of the first game. It's extra heartwarming to see that Gregory could call on Cassie to help him truly escape the Pizzaplex, showing that they could overall be TrueCompanions.
** At the very end, Gregory asks Cassie not to give up on him yet, which is pretty sweet in itself. But from a meta perspective, it could also be seen as Steel Wool Studios understanding the backlash from Security Breach's launch and not wanting the audience to give up on them for this big expansion to the horrors of the Pizzaplex.

* Monty has a new line where he shouts "RUN, RUN, RUN!" to Gregory. Granted he does this while he's about to kill you, but given that the tone seems strangely sincere about wanting Gregory to get away, as opposed to taunting or viscious. Given what we know about how the bots are acting, is Monty FightingFromTheInside and genuinely freeing himself from the corruption just long enough to try to warn Gregory about what will happen if he's caught?

** The whole Parts and Services section really solidifies how close these two have gotten in a short amount of time. Gregory braves the first the Endos in the Warehouse and then the risk of Freddy malfunctioning to get in and reattach Freddy's head; already the kid's willing to risk his life to save Freddy. It's implied, at the end of the previous hour where Moon was dragging him off, that Freddy might have pushed Gregory into the recharge station to keep Moon away from him, followed by apparently being able to see Gregory looking in the Parts and Services window before ''lying to Vanessa's face'' that he doesn't know where Gregory is.

** Gregory also returns Freddy's kindness with his own little moments such as when Freddy is having an existential crisis seeing a bunch of endoskeletons and pondering about his own identity and purpose. Although Gregory might not understand the gravity of the situation, he tries to pull Freddy out of his dread by saying he's just a kid and too young for that kind of introspection and instead helps him abandon the topic by saying he shouldn't think too much about it because it would be bad for his psyche and programming.
** In the good endings Freddy either sacrifices himself to save Gregory, or he manages to overcome his battery issues and leaves the [=PizzaPlex=] with Gregory. Either way, Freddy does everything he can to protect and help Gregory get out of the [=PizzaPlex=], by whatever means necessary.
