1* Upon realized what Boone allowed his stooges to do to Mowgli after their engagement was announced, Kitty breaks it off with Boone. For good measure, she [[BitchSlap slaps him across the face]] when he shows his true colors while jealously ranting to her about [[NeverMyFault how 'stupid' she is for breaking it off for Mowgli, refusing to accept the fact that he was stupid himself to allow his stooges to mistreat Mowgli in the first place]].
2* During the third act, Mowgli's confrontations with Boone and his men. Even when they have him, Kitty and Colonel Brydon tied up, Mowgli is calm and composed in the face of their questioning. Why? Because he knows that they're out of their element, and the jungle's hazards ''will'' be the death of them, even if they reach the Monkey City.
3--> '''Sergeant Hardy''': Take us to the treasure, and she'll live!
4--> '''Mowgli''': I will take you... and we'll see who lives.
5* While Boone's men have him tied up, Mowgli gets a little pay back at them for how they treated him at the banquet. When Wilkens begs Mowgli to somehow get the howling wolves to quiet down, this line shows that Mowgli wasn't so oblivious to their [[StealthInsult backhanded insults]] toward him.
6-->'''Wilkens:''' (clearly unnerved) Can't you get them to shut up?
7-->'''Mowgli:''' [[SarcasmMode A man? Talking to animals? Is this done?]]
8* A small moment from both Colonel Brydon and Mowgli. One one hand, when Boone makes it a point to callously leave Kitty's wounded father behind so as to not be slowed down, we cut to the good Colonel straggling in defiance of his situation. He's wounded, alone and stranded in the heart of a deadly jungle, but he'll be damned before he gives up. As for Mowgli, he's prefaced with what seems to be a roar from Shere Khan, before he catches up with Colonel Brydon. If we're to believe Mowgli made that roar, then the holy man from his childhood dream was spot on: Mowgli is closer to be "whole tiger".
9* Mowgli's fight with Boone, with King Louie and the primates cheering for Mowgli.
10-->'''Boone:''' What do you think you have that I don't, huh?! (attempt to hack down Mowgli with his sword)
11-->'''Mowgli:''' (dodging every single of Boone's attacks) Strength of a bear.... speed of a panther.... heart of a wolf... (slashes Boone in the arm with a dagger) and very sharp teeth!
12* Mowgli defeating Kaa during his first visit to the Monkey City, using the elephant-shaped dagger to strike a wounding blow. All the while earning the respect of King Louie in the process.
13** Conversely, following Mowgli's second visit to Monkey City, Kaa (who has fully healed from his wounds) takes the time to scare Boone into the moat while allowing Mowgli and Kitty to escape. Kaa then finally kills the evil hunter for the trouble he caused to Mowgli and the animals; even King Louie and the Bandar Log happily cheer for Boone's death.
14* Mowgli and Shere Khan face off against each other, or should we say "roar off"? The result: Shere Khan ''backs down'', and accepts Mowgli as a resident of the jungle, allowing him and Kitty to leave peacefully.
