* When everyone is pressing on Mary to stop playing a concerto and instead play something they can dance to, Sir William Lucas comes over and phrases the request in a way designed to allow Mary to keep her dignity (such as she has after throwing a tantrum at the initial request).
** Sir William Lucas in general is just a cheerful fellow, always smiling and making sure that everyone is enjoying themselves at parties, the majority of which he arranges. He never once says an ill word to or about anyone, a sharp contrast to the other men in the story (except Bingly, who is almost as cheerful as Sir William).



* When Darcy is dealing with Wickham in the flashback (following the latter's attempted seduction of Georgiana) we see Georgiana waiting anxiously outside the room, then Wickham departs and Darcy sternly orders her in... and tenderly embraces her.



* It's a very subtle moment, but the sheer affection and pride in the housekeeper's voice when she points out Mr. Darcy's picture. [[NiceToTheWaiter Just from the tone of her voice, the viewer understands how much his servants truly love him.]] [[note]]While a servant wouldn't be likely to admit that their master is abusive, the fact that they so freely and lavishly praise him show that their affection for him is genuine. [[/note]]
* When she visits, Darcy is eager to know Elizabeth's opinion of Pemberley.
-->'''Darcy:''' I hope you are not displeased with Pemberley?\\
'''Elizabeth:''' No, not at all.\\
'''Darcy:''' Then you approve of it?\\
'''Elizabeth:''' Very much. I think there are few who would not approve.\\
'''Darcy:''' But your good opinion is rarely bestowed, and therefore more worth the earning.
** The physical reactions of the characters are just as sweet as the dialogue; and Darcy wears a look of genuine delight when he says "then you approve of it?" Darcy is the richest man in Derbyshire and probably one of the richest men in the ''country'', lives in a BigFancyHouse on an estate whose perimeter is ''ten miles'' around, and he's as nervous as a schoolboy over whether or not Elizabeth is going to like it.



** When Georgiana asks Elizabeth to join them for dinner at Pemberley, it is plainly obvious that Darcy is the one that wants to ask her but, either from shyness/anxiety or fear of offending her after his disastrous proposal, has his sister make the request. She, for her part, does not give away that the request is being made on his behalf, so as to spare his pride, only stating that the request on behalf of both of them.



** Immediately prior, when Elizabeth is playing the pianoforte (not horribly, but obviously lacking) Darcy is watching her enraptured by her music. Bingly, for his part, obviously finds her playing less than enjoyable but still gives her wholehearted applause when she is finished (applauding the effort, if not the performance).
** Later that night, Darcy returns to the piano room alone to remember not only Elizabeth's playing, but the short moment of eye contact after they both lept to Georgiana's defense.
* The scene where Elizabeth explains to her father why she's marrying Mr. Darcy. When she's finished, he says "If that's the case, then he deserves you. And I could not have parted with you, my Lizzy, for anyone less." He then kisses her while blinking back tears.
* Also in the BBC version, when Darcy is dealing with Wickham in the flashback (following the latter's attempted seduction of Georgiana) we see Georgiana waiting anxiously outside the room, then Wickham departs and Darcy sternly orders her in... and tenderly embraces her.
* "Dearest, loveliest Elizabeth."
* A very subtle one, but the sheer affection and pride in the housekeeper's voice when she points out Mr. Darcy's picture.

* In Jane's accounting of the family recieving the Colonel's letter about Lydia running off with Wickham, Mary is the first one of the Bennet daughters to assist her mother despite all the crap Mrs. Bennet puts her through.
* When everyone is pressing on Mary to stop playing a concerto and instead play something they can dance to, Sir William Lucas comes over and phrases the request in a way designed to allow Mary to keep her dignity (such as she has after throwing a tantrum at the initial request).
* After quite justifiably ripping into Darcy over his interference with Jane, Bingley then asks for the man's blessing, saying that while he doesn't need it, he would still like to have it.
