** There's something subtle about Fear's attitude towards the [[spoiler: white]] core memory suddenly fading. That memory is the representation of all his buried fears about their new living situation with Riley. And yet, when he notices that it's losing brightness, he's not secretly glad that Riley's losing interest in them, or just wanting to take it out and be done with it or anything like that. No, he wants to save it. Almost like despite all that's happened, Fear considers Riley knowing them to be something worth preserving. That he's accepting their new living situation even though he knows there's emotional danger on the horizon.

** The communication issues they had in the film seem to be solved as well: nowadays, Sadness notifies Joy when she feels the need to touch a memory to influence it and Joy is quick to acknowledge it and let Sadness operate, as evidenced with the memory of the trip to Pizza Planet. And [[FacialDialogue they don't even have to exchange a word]] for that.

** Ann apparently has her fear give her a vein of paranoia, as when she first met Jordan 2 years before the story (so, 1 year before meeting riley), she was afraid that Jordan wouldn't be her friend when she started making new friends. But what does jordan say about the whole issue and their new problems with Riley? [[TrueCompanions "True friends don't give up on each other".]] And remember, Jordan's a bit of a airhead sometimes, so that kind of wisdom is really sweet.

** Riley has been...quite angry and defensive the last 2 days with Ann. But despite all that, Ann never judges, never gives up, and never snaps back in the process. At least, not externally. Only continues to show that Riley has a great support system both inside and outside if only she'd trust them.

And finally thanking Bing Bong for all he did for her. According to her emotional dream memories, it was a small spot of joy among the sadness, anger, fear and disgust.

** It's not exactly helpful overall, but when Bill and Jill go to confront Riley about her current behavior, both their lead emotions reiterate 1 important fact: [[SubvertedTrope We can't]] [[HistoryRepeats let what happened last year happen again]]. That it wasn't just Riley who learned something last year. Her parents also learned more about parenting too, and now all they want is to make sure Riley's okay without putting too much pressure on her.
** Also even though they're still scared of what's going on, Joy and Sadness both try and reiterate to Riley that the people around her want what's best, whether it's the emotions or mom and dad. Trying to help her understand there's no need for such drastic behavior among love.

And when Riley says yes once again, Joy brushed away TearsOfJoy, and closed the distance, happy that their great sins were finally aired, but Riley still wanted them.

** Joy musing that for all the bad rap she gave Sadness for 11 years, Riley somehow managed to accept Sadness's call on Riley's memories in the story. Made her wonder why she couldn't be more like their host.

** Joy's about to take a leap of faith in opening the emotions up to condemnation by Riley for their actions during the first days of the move. However, before Joy begins their "confessional", Sadness steps up to let Riley know ahead of time that she might not like what she hears, and takes hold of Joy's hand. Sadness has the least reason to be nervous about telling the story, but since she also covers empathy, she takes her place alongside the friend she made on their adventure together.

No, that\'s just because she\'s imagining she can, and she is literally in her imagination. That term would probably apply elsewhere though, not that that would mean anything bad.


** Riley's utter..well...Joy when she finds out that in imagination land (possibly due to consciousness tampering), she can make herself fly. It's like every child's dream come true. Only for Riley, she actually got to make it a reality.

** When Riley lands back in the mind world, she tries to smile, but it's forced. But when she and Sadness lock gazes, Sadness knows exactly what Riley really needs now. And so she and the emotions give riley a hug of comfort after her...rough day before. One is reminded of when Sadness was there for Bing Bong, as Riley just let it out with Sadness, and then when she broke away, she was already doing better just like Bing Bong was.

** The way Riley and Fear converse over her possibly getting brain surgery. Riley doesn't want to hurt her emotions in the process, and Fear replies that no matter the danger they might get into, ''Riley'' is always their top priority. Considering this was the first time Fear tried to promote something dangerous for the sake of greater health is kinda sweet, and helped endear him even more to Riley.
