* Alexis is [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal by Apex-influenced Jens. That by itself is a huge tearjerker, but then we find out she knew she was bound to die and left everyone a heartfelt goodbye letter in her pocket to motivate them to move on without her. It's a very touching and extremely sad scene all around]].
* Ruby's plan to [[spoiler: set all the post-humans in the Lotus Garden free]] works a little [[http://rubynation.thecomicseries.com/comics/255 too well]]. The visible despair and horror they are suddenly hit with is not a pretty sight.

*Jiro's emotional breakdown [[spoiler: when Ruby is taken away by Beagle]]. Even at his [[MomentOfWeakness worst reaction]] to it, it's still very sad to see how broken up he is, especially when the guilt sets in.

*[[spoiler: Kaluga's death]]. Made even sadder by the fact that Elise couldn't remember him, but still feels an attachment to him.

*The soldier killed by Moray in the prologue. He may be a nameless mook, but he’s a mook with a family and Ruby [[TenderTears cries for his sake]] [[EstablishingCharacterMoment despite him being an enemy soldier]]. It’s both poignant and kind of depressing.
*Ruby’s mother experimented on her and killed herself to cover her tracks. It may have lead Ruby into becoming the person she is today, but it’s still a pretty messed-up story.
*As it turns out, the reason Elise has gaps in her memory is because [[spoiler: she was [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashed into a violent psychopath]].]] Her memory was altered by [[spoiler: Jiro]] in an attempt to restore her to a happier, more stable state. This…hasn’t quite worked out.
*Ruby attempt to rescue a child hostage and raise him, only for that child to die days later from infection. The memory of that only raises her doubts with herself when she finds out [[spoiler: she’s pregnant]].
*Kaluga’s reason for working with Apex despite their murderous dealings? [[spoiler: He has a massive facial tumor and severe feelings of isolation as a result]]. When he meets Elise, she looks past that and even [[spoiler: gives him a kiss]]. Of course, she remembers none of this due to her amnesia, leaving Kaluga as the only one to remember this encounter.
