* The scene where Lovino (begrudgingly) comforts a horror-striken [[AmbiguousInnocence Feliciano]] has its moments of heartwarming, too.

** Extra points for his outrage when, at first, he believes Kirkland sold Unsinkable out - for someone who doesn't even ''like'' Unsinkable, that was really sweet. Followed by this line when he realizes Kirkland did it by accident:

Added DiffLines:

* [[KnightInSourArmor Lovino]] letting Unsinkable get away when he finds him sneaking through the house:
-->'''Lovino''': You're the one and only Unsinkable. Or a close enough fake. Bad person to be impersonating, though, with the bounty on that guy's head. Well, on his body. Y'know there's a fifty million dollar offer for that body? Fifty. Not fifteen. ''Fifty''. You know what the man who'll pay that insane amount of money wants to do to your body? He doesn't just wanna fuck it.
-->'''Unsinkable''': Yeah, I got an idea or two.
-->'''Lovino''': That's a lot of money, Unsinkable. If - if I sold you to that man, I'd get that money. And if I had that kind of cash, I'd never have to work again in my life. I wouldn't have to take over the family business like they expect me to. I'd be free. I could get away from here, from all of this.
-->'''Unsinkable''': ...
-->'''Lovino''': I'm gonna look the other way for a sec, and when I turn back, you're gonna be gone. Capisce?
-->'''Unsinkable''': ...You - you won't -
-->'''Lovino''': I couldn't even if I wanted to. And I don't. [[IAmNotMyFather That's... that's my grandpa, not me]]. So get the hell outta here.

* [[TomboyPrincess Natalya]] befriending [[SexSlave Eduard]] after her brother and sister get into an argument over him.
-->'''Natalya''': That's why [Ivan]'s so uneasy with you, isn't it? You're just like him in a way. Your parents decided for you what you would be, and so you became it. Well, same with us! ...Maybe Vanya's just upset because you accept so readily what you are and he still struggles with his own misgivings.
-->'''Eduard''': Do you accept what ''you'' are?
-->'''Natalya''': Yes, I do. Because someone has to do this job.
-->'''Eduard''': I feel exactly the same way, Devushka.
-->'''Natalya''': You can call me Natasha, I don't mind. (Making a toast.) To making the best of one's life that one can, with exceedingly unpleasant jobs.
--> And to unexpectedly kindred spirits.
