** Well, except for "Americans are ready for a cure for AIDS, but they're saving it for a latter day" that is.

** At the end, the Ugandans change "Hasa Diga, Eebowai" (Fuck you, God), to "Ma ha nei bu, Eebowai" (THANK you, God).

!!Relating to the Scripture

* Alma the Younger in his old age is proud of all but his youngest son Corianton. Along with some choice words for his conduct and how it affected their missionary work, he also tells him that despite what he has done he can ask the Lord for forgiveness, and reaffirms that Corianton is his son.[[note]]Corianton appears to take it to heart, since he's later considered eligible to inherit the plates.[[/note]]
* Alma the Elder's response to his rebellious son waking up from his coma.
* Jesus Christ arriving in the Americas and ministering to the Nephites. He calls apostles, heals those who need it, and blesses the children. The aftermath is peace for quite a long time.

* Alma the Younger in his old age is proud to all but his youngest son Corianton. Along with some choice words for his conduct and how it affected their missionary work, he also tells him that despite what he has done he can ask the Lord for forgiveness, and reaffirms that Corianton is his son.

* Meta: Nikki M. James wins the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qpZBJdbVL8 Tony Award]] for Best Featured Actress in a Musical and thanks her cast and crew. Even the unflappably snarky Stone and Parker look ready to cry.

* The song "I Am Here for You".

* In fact, all of "Tomorrow Is a Latter Day" is heartwarming. [[spoiler: Everyone's faith is renewed, the missionaries learn to stop repressing their unwanted emotions and instead "let all [their] feelings out", and Mormons and Ugandans alike agree to work together, support each other, and be happier overall.]]

* Alma the Younger in his old age is proud to all but his youngest son Corianton. Instead of abolishing him, he tells him despite what he has done, he can ask the Lord for forgiveness.

* In the beginning of "Tomorrow is a Latter Day", Elder Price gives an inspirational speech about how no matter what they do, they can all work together to make the world a better place. Elder Cunningham then asks, "You mean... You want to... stay here with me?" Elder Price then says, "I'd do anything for you, you're my best friend," and reprises an even sweeter version of "I Am Here For You", in which Elder Cunningham joins in.

--> '''Elder Price:''' You know what? [[PrecisionFStrike Fuck him!]] We are all still Latter-Day Saints, [to [[ConsummateLiar Elder Cunningham]]] even if we change some things, [to [[TransparentCloset Elder McKinley]]] or we break the rules, or [[CrisisOfFaith we have complete doubt that God exists]]. We can still work together to make this our paradise planet.
** It helps that when Price reprises "I Am Here For You", Arnold runs to hug him, and rather than stiffen as he did when they were first paired together in Act One, he [[CharacterDevelopment warmly hugs him back.]]

* The song "I Am Here For You".

--> '''Cunningham''': A special kind of girl, who makes my heart kind of flutter. And makes my eyes kind of blur. I can't believe I'm about to baptize her!
--> '''Nabulungi''' (Later): Never known a boy so gentle. One like him is hard to find. A special kind, who makes my heart kind of flutter, like a moth in a cocoon. I hope he gets to baptize me soon!

--> "They'll have no proof I was telling the truth or not. They'll have to believe it just... 'cause. Oh! I guess that's kind of what you were going for..."
* Nabulungi as a character in general. She lives in poverty and constant fear of war lords, has lost her mother, and is surrounded by villagers who have understandably grown jaded with their horrible conditions... and as a result [[PluckyGirl is kind, spirited, curious and friendly to everyone she meets.]] Her relationship with [[TheWoobie Elder Cunningham]] is as sweet as one can imagine.

--> '''Hatimbi''': Here's my daughter, she has a... [[LastSecondWordSwap wonderful disposition]],
--> She is all I have left in the world/And if either of you lays a hand on her...
--> [[BlackComedyRape I will give you my AIDS!]]

--> [[BlackComedyRape I will give you my aids!]]

Coming from a Broadway Musical by Matt Stone and Trey Parker (creators of South Park) and filled with all kinds of naughty language, violence, and more, you wouldn't expect there to be as many heartwarming moments as there is.

* "I'd do anything for you. You're my best friend."
