* Ariel's singing part in "For a Moment". Unlike Melody's part where she is absolutely loving being a mermaid, Ariel is completely out of her mind with worry for her missing daughter; at one point singing in a painful note on why Melody had to leave. It's clear that Ariel is loathing her decision for not being honest with Melody about her heritage.

* At the beginning, when Ariel decides it's best for Melody's safety to not know anything about the sea. Possibly more tear-jerking is that keeping Melody ignorant is ''exactly'' what leads her into trouble. Imagine that as a parent: [[AdultFear you do what you think is best for your child, and your actions turn out to be more harmful than helpful.]]

* The entire emotional ordeal (and dismal failure) for Melody at her own 12th birthday party. She's already considered strange by her peers, and her parents' encouragement before the party eases her worries and [[HopeSpot helps her to believe that everything will be alright.]] But disaster strikes (through no fault of her own), she's utterly humiliated, [[TheFreelanceShameSquad everyone laughs at her]] and she flees the ballroom in tears. Seeing her crying alone in her bedroom afterwards is difficult to watch.
