- Before we find out about his less than supportive tendencies, Derek doing that weather shout out to his fiancee was rather sweet.
- The other monsters letting Susan hide in the city when she's scared of fighting the alien robot. They didn't even get annoyed.
- Also, Link and Dr. C immediately pay attention to Susan when she’s beginning to panic instead of just half-heartedly telling her to hide in the city.
- After the break up, Susan finally realizes that being with the monsters has made her feel more fulfilled than she had in a very long time. Amazing.
- When the Monsters show up "disguised" as aliens, Susan gets herself a look of pure happiness on her face. She dials it down to maintain their cover but can't help a happy smile at seeing her friends.
- Even though Susan had just been reduced to a normal human, had spent the bulk of the movie before then hating the idea of being considered a monster, and only knew the other monsters for roughly one month, they all still unhesitatingly consider her one of them and race to her rescue when she is captured by Gallaxhar.
- Near the film's climax:
- The other monsters tell a de-powered Susan to escape from Gallaxhar's self-destructing ship, while they're trapped themselves. They were willing to sacrifice themselves to save a world that had feared them for what they were and allow Susan - who they'd only known for about a month by that point - to live a normal life.
- In response to that, Susan refuses and risks her life against Gallaxhar himself to save them, even reabsorbing the quantonium knowing full-well that she won't be able to go back to normal.
- Heck, much of the film's heart comes from the team chemistry between these characters.
- B.O.B. declaring to his friends how much he loves them as Gallaxhar's ship is self-destructing and his friends refuse to tell him they're all going to die.
- In a less obvious example, the fact that General Warren R. Monger bargained with the president for the monsters' freedom in exchange for them fighting the giant robot. And making sure the Modesto PD didn't shoot at them when they went to visit Susan's parents. He's definitely gotten fond of the monsters over the fifty years of guarding them.
- Susan's interactions with her parents; in particular, with her father on the day of her wedding, where she jumps out the car and flings her arms around him. They also are not at all put off by her size, the only change is them showing concern for her health when they find out she is huge.
