History TearJerker / Saw

* Although it may depend on how much sympathy you have for them, since they're both part of a group of five who were involved (in varying degrees, ranging from devising the whole plan, to being the patsy deceived into starting it) in a fire that resulted in the deaths of eight people, Brit and Mallick in ''Saw V'' comforting each other before they go into the 10 Pints of Sacrifice is pretty tender. They help each other tie their arms with cloth to cut off circulation, and Mallick desperately says that he can't do it alone, to Brit which reassures him that that he's not going to. [[HoldingHands They even hold hands above the box for comfort.]] And when they both wake up, she smiles and softly tells them that they won.

** Worse, at the end he's made a genuine HeelFaceTurn after passing his test, making this the first (and debatably only) time Jigsaw's twisted philosophy actually worked. However, he faces one final test, but this time from the wife and son of one of William's deceased clients. They're faced with either pulling a lever that'll impale William with multiple syringes filled with hydrochloric acid, which would kill him in the most inhumane and agonizing way possible, or spare him. William tearfully and brokenly pleads with them not to, and his sister Pamela in the cage opposite them frantically begs them to have mercy, and the wife goes for the lever but is unable to go through with it. However, her son steps in, [[YouKilledMyFather claiming that William killed his father,]] and pulls the lever instead. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone He then looks on in horror]] [[ShootTheShaggyDog as William is liquified with acid from the inside out.]]

** Before they enter the trap, judging by the look on Brit's face when Mallick angrily asks her if she knew about the eight people living in the warehouse when she decided to have it burned down to take the property, [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone she seems to finally realize the horror of what she's done.]]

* The Rack scene. At 24 years old, while driving drunk, Timothy accidentally killed Jeff Denlon's eight year-old son, and was utterly devastated by what he'd done. He was sentenced to only six months in prison, but he still carried the guilt of what happened with him, and it was possibly what drove him to become a medical student. Three years later, Jigsaw kidnaps him and puts him in a game, and asks Jeff if he's willing to help the man responsible for the death of his son. Timothy is condemned to a truly CruelAndUnusualDeath where all of his limbs are slowly twisted 360 degrees around, eventually moving up to his neck. It's sickening to watch, as he's able to beg for help and cry out in pain right up until the end. Judge Halden implores Jeff to help, and he just stands there, gloating. But eventually it sets in for Jeff exactly what he's doing after Halden is shot while trying to get the key to let Timothy out, and Jeff tries to stop the machine with his bare hands right as it's about to snap Timothy's neck, screaming that he forgives him, but it's too late.
