* One episode about stories of survival had a middle-aged woman going on the show and talking about how her abusive ex-boyfriend tried to kill her while she was several months pregnant via a MurderSuicide fire. She managed to get to the door just before the home blew up, albeit with some burns herself, was saved by two neighbors who heard the explosion and her baby boy was born healthy. Making it even better was that Maury surprised her with her older adult son, an Iraq War veteran who had been deployed for quite some time, coming onto the stage holding his infant half-brother and Maury's compliment during the heartfelt reunion, "Look at you! Aren't you a good man; fighting wars and holding babies?"
* Another episode had a woman who had talked about overcoming a childhood illness and taking a medication that saved her life, but ruined her teeth and recalling the years of painful bullying in school she endured because of it. She also could not afford to pay to have her teeth fixed due to working to care for her disabled husband, who has MS. Maury then announced that he would pay for her teeth to be fixed as she burst into tears and wept "My prayers have finally been answered." Her next appearance had her proudly showing off her new teeth and thanking the show for their help.

* One episode had a ex-girlfriend accuse a boy of being her baby's father. After storming off from the audience heckling of reasonable explanation. (She was sexually active with several men as soon as they broke up something her mother who came on with and testified to be a little true as much as she was aware of even though she too thought the boy was the father.) She's proven wrong just as the boy claims and instead of crying or getting angry out of embarrassment she actually calls the boy back onto the stage and apologizes for embarrassing him in a situation that is mainly her fault and he calmly accepts it despite how angry he was with her behavior from before and tells her he hope she can find the real father of her child.
