  • After going through the trouble of finding three MO Disks in separate locations, and then loading them onto three separate computers throughout the lab to release three locks, you are rewarded by freeing Chris/Jill from a cell Wesker locked them in. The joy and relief that Chris and Jill experience in the moment adds to the Heartwarming, and Jill will even hug Chris in his scenario when he frees her.
  • The Sleep Cute moment during the good ending, when Jill rests her head on Chris' shoulder. Chris' scenario has extra cuteness, with the camera going over to Rebecca, who is also sleeping cutely.
  • When Barry saves Jill in The Tyrant Lab from Wesker.
    Barry: "Forgive me. Even if it meant my family, I couldn't bear turning back on my friends again."
    • Even more so in that Jill is quick to forgive Barry, considering that earlier throughout the game, she likely suspected Barry of betraying her out of malicious intent.
  • When your teammates leave you supplies inside and near the first saferoom and fixing the door.
  • Chris and Rebecca's relationship over the course of the game certainly counts. He's her superior officer, but he shows genuine courtesy and consideration of her skills, and even tries to help her pull it together in the remake when she breaks down crying over the loss of her companions, especially Richard. All in all, he's an especially nice guy to her and makes her feel useful.
    • SD Perry's novelization provides a pretty good explanation for why Chris treats her as he does; she reminds him of Claire. As a result, he takes the same role of "big brother" protective figure for her.
