* HoYay: Scrooge and Marley already had some of this in the book, but the musical and especially the film version take it even further. Here, besides being business partners, they're genuinely good friends to the point where Scrooge seems more upset at Marley dying than his fiancee leaving him. The first thing Marley's ghost does upon appearing is burst into tears and hug his "dear, dear Scrooge," he looks nostalgic and puts a hand over his heart when talking about the Ghost of Christmas Past (who in this version shows Scrooge his partnership with Marley among other things), and his younger self does a lot of staring when Scrooge is with Emily.

** During the number “Link By Link”, several ghosts appear in Scrooge’s bedroom and sing about how they wasted their chances to do good in their lives. Some also look quite disturbing like an old college of Scrooge and Marley’s being a skeleton and one man carrying around his decapitated head under his arm. To further drive home their point, the ghosts throw their chains around Scrooge and tell him that this could be his fate if he doesn’t change.

Mops' role up to that point had been as a kind person with comic relief, making her spiteful glee at his death even worse.

** The Christmas Past sequence shows Scrooge's mother forced to send young Ebenezer and Fan away to work after their father is sent to debtor's prison. She sadly holds them and urges them to retain their hope and kind hearts through adversity, singing "God Bless Us Every One," and the Ghost of Christmas Past remarks that she died soon afterward, meaning that this moment was likely the last time the two children ever saw their mother.
