* When Marty eventually gets Judge Brown to come around to seeing Emmett's point of view, he reveals that he himself had a strained relationship with his own father who disapproved of him coming to America. He implies that he and his father never fully reconciled before his death and he clearly fears that the same will happen between him and Emmett. This gets even worse when you realize that in the original timeline without Marty present, Doc and his father likely never reconciled, as indicated by Doc's remorseful recounting, which adds a layer of sorrow to Doc's character.

* Having to see the completely rusted and dead [=DeLorean=] in Alternate 1931. Its one thing to have to see the car, a staple, a character, an icon, of this franchise get trashed in ''Part III'', but to see it rust off into a wreck, a hollow, decayed and empty shell of its former self, its parts stripped, to make a clunky and rudimentary alarm system, is a real punch in the guts. Imagine encountering the long decayed web-covered skeleton of WesternAnimation/BugsBunny, or WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse. Even Marty says, half-choked, "I hate seeing it like this". If Doc's talked to while looking at it, he'll just quietly ask Marty to not speak as he stares at it in shock.
