** Upon hearing from his dad that Small One can no longer stay on the farm due to being too old, both the boy and Small one become devastated by the sad news, with the boy unsuccessfully pleading to his dad to not sell him. Reluctantly, understanding his dad's reasons to sell him, he volunteers to be the one to sell him the following day, but it's pretty clear he wants to spend one final day with him.
** The scene after the auction, when Small One realizes that no one will buy him. He leads the boy back through the town, back towards the [[spoiler:tanner's -- [[FaceDeathWithDignity fully prepared to give up his own life]].]]
** The [[spoiler:ending, where despite Small one being sold to a nice person who will take good care on his final days, the boy and Small one are separated for good, with the boy waving his hand to them one final time before returning home.]]
