* A meta example: after many Native Americans expressed disappointment at Isi's design and reached out to Mattel, [[WordOfSaintPaul Sherry Schwab (Mattel Consumer Services Sponsor) wrote an email back]]. Even if it wasn't a perfect response (and it stated outright that they ''[[UnfortunateImplications intentionally homogenized the design to get the highest possible profit from the Native American market]]'') it also showed that Mattel will rethink approaching designs for characters in the future with clear-eyed concern for culture. Which is pretty cool.

After a period without inspiration, she fashions an elaborate ''calavera'' vase. When she sends the picture to her grandmother, she says it's a beautiful combination of tradition and personal expression, which Skelita thinks is the "best compliment she could ever have".

* Skelita's collector diary is also full of heartwarming. In the past she's always loved celebrating Dia de los Muertos alongside humans (and losing something each year), but she always felt like she was only invited to celebrate because her grandmother was. This particular year, her ''abuela'' is unable to attend, but the path to the human world still appears. Skelita arrives to the celebrations, and sees an altar to her decorated with all of her lost objects, and her human friends say that she will always be invited to the party for her kindness.

Draculaura has been seeing herself as dead weight on the team throughout the special, and Clawdeen decides to overplay her injury in order to get Draculaura into the field. Clawd catches on and asks, "Are you sure?", his tone indicating that he completely agrees with her plan. She nods at him, and he tells Draculaura she's in:
--> '''Draculaura:''' Are you crazy? We could still win!
--> '''Clawd:''' I know.
** Remarkably, it's the facial animation that sells this moment, both in Clawdeen's sincerity after Clawd asks if she's sure, and Draculaura's HUGE grin when Clawd insists on putting her in.
