* In this version of the story, Abuela Claudia passes away the night the blackout starts instead of noon the next day- and the last thing she sees before she does is Usnavi and Sonny across the hall, enjoying the night with their friends despite the blackout. The following scene where Usnavi tries waking her up, not knowing that his beloved abuela's already gone, is absolutely heartwrenching, as are his tearful reassurances to Claudia that he's with her and everything will be alright.

When the paramedics finally came, Usnavi's devastated expression and the way he buries his face into the bed says everything. In the following cut to the beach, he has a ThousandYardStare.

** It's downplayed because of the staging, but what would have it looked like in-universe? Picture a club, pitch-black except for the light of phone screens, [[AdultFear a panicking, screaming, shoving crowd...]] It was bad enough in normal situations that Vanessa complained earlier, "You can't even go to a club without having somebody shove you,". In real life, people have been ''trampled to death'' in such situations.

* The cut song “Atención” playing as background music as Sonny accepts the fight for his documentation. In the stage show, it’s the song with the WhamLine “Abuela Claudia passed away at noon today.” In the movie, the last thing Abuela sees is Sonny and Usnavi, happy - and she left Usnavi the winning ticket that he'd use to help Sonny’s legal battle to gain citizenship. Even in death, she still takes care of her community.

* When Usnavi asks Sonny to come to DR with him, Sonny stalls by saying he'll have to ask his dad. A few scenes later, the normally [[MotorMouth chatty]] and [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] Usnavi is shown carefully and politely trying to convince Sonny's [[TheAlcoholic apathetic father]] to let him go, showing him brochures for a school that Sonny could go to there. The combination of the depth of his care for Sonny and his blatant concern for Sonny's wellbeing around his father is heartbreaking. It gets even worse [[HarsherInHindsight when you know that Sonny cannot go with him.]]

** Most of the cast gathers in Claudia and Usnavi's apartment during the blackout, meaning they at least have the comfort of knowing their last moments with her were of them having fun, playing bingo, laughing, and lighting candles together. But Benny, Kevin, and Vanessa aren't there. Their last time seeing Claudia were during that dinner that ended in an ''awful'' argument. Even though Benny did the right thing by insisting on going to the dispatch to help people, it's gotta sting, knowing he missed his last chance to see her.

** In the show's version of the song, Abuela exclaims ''"Calor! Calor! Calor!"''[[note]]Heat! Heat! Heat![[/note]] at the beginning, in response to the brutal summer weather. In the film version, she sings the line in a softer, calmer tone; this indicates that she's weakening from the overwhelming heat, and is now on the brink of death.
