** What makes it particularly special is that Wilma's mother is a RichBitch, and all of her "friends" (who Wilma only spends time with out of obligation) are shallow socialites who go out of their way to wear the latest and gaudiest fashions and accessories imaginable. By contrast, Colonel Slaghoople ''listens'' to his daughter, acknowledges that she has her own interests, and gives her a piece that, while expensive, is also tasteful and subtle (it even coordinates with her iconic white dress). Notably, when Chip announces that the necklace has been stolen, Wilma, who doesn't have a lot of attachment to wealth, becomes genuinely distressed--"My ''pearls?''"--and desperately wants them returned.
* At the aforementioned party, Betty takes the revelation of Wilma's wealth the hardest, as she mistakenly believed that Wilma was "caveless" and let her move in with her (Wilma tried to correct her, but Betty wouldn't take no for an answer). She's rather cold to her throughout the bash--but when Wilma [[CallingTheOldManOut calls Mrs. Slaghoople out]] for her horrible attitude toward Fred and Barney, Betty breaks into a huge smile and immediately stands up next to Wilma, silently forgiving her and rekindling their friendship.

* When Fred and Barney end up falsely arrested as part of Chip Rockefeller's scheme to marry Wilma, the Great Gazoo manifests. They beg him for help, but he explains that the AlienNonInterferenceClause binding him keeps him from helping out, and all three burst into tears at the thought of Wilma ending up unhappy. When they manage to escape anyway, Gazoo decides to pull a ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight by using his powers to knock out the prison guard, showing that he's genuinely come to value Fred and Barney as his friends.
* At the climax, Fred pulls off the GrandRomanticGesture to end all grand romantic gestures--he replaces [[PunnyName Mick Jagged]] onstage and performs his song "This Isn't Love, This Is Destiny" to Wilma and a crowded audience. He then apologizes to her for trying to be something he wasn't, offers her "all the love in his heart," and gets down on one knee to propose. Wilma bursts into tears and happily accepts.

* Wilma brings her friends to her father Colonel Slaghoople's birthday party. It's the first time they discover that she's an extremely wealthy heiress, and as such, the party is fraught with tension. When Wilma's alone for a while, her father enters with a box:
-->'''Colonel Slaghoople''': I brought you a little something for your birthday!
--> '''Wilma''': Daddy, it's ''your'' birthday.
--> '''Colonel Slaghoople''': Oh! Well, these won't fit me...
--> ''(He opens the box to reveal a pearl necklace--Wilma's most iconic piece of jewelry.)''
--> '''Wilma''': Oh, Daddy...
--> '''Colonel Slaghoople''': I know you don't like showy things, but...Wilma, dear, I want you to know that no matter what you do, your daddy will always love you, and couldn't be prouder of you.
