Night Court/Heartwarming

• Florence's goodbye to everyone in "Flo's Retirement" really stands out.
• Dan revealing his true opinion of Harry's style of justice in "The Wheels of Justice: Part II."
• Roz, the first to be snarky and the last to ever get sentimental, talking at Dan's funeral with frank honesty about how Dan once risked his life to save her and what a good person he was deep down.
  • This was doubly touching as everyone else who spoke at the service was either unable to think of anything nice to say about Dan or wound up cracking wise about what a pervert he was.
    • To be fair, knowing Dan that's exactly what he would have wanted anyway.
    • Eh, sorta. He did rib Harry pretty hard about the ceremony after revealing himself, saying "This wasn't a funeral, Harry. It was a roast." He was smiling when he said it though so odds are he did appreciate the sentiment.
• Dan gets a couple of these for the episode "Hurricane pt. 2". First, he comforts a pregnant woman during her delivery. Doubles as a Crowning Moment of Funny when he also gently asks her to take her teeth out of his chest. Then, after things are settling down, and the woman indicates that she wants to name the child after Dan, he tells her the truth about his real name, Rheinhold Fielding Elmore, which he had legally changed when he went to school. It was something he'd never told any of his friends before.
• Bull getting drunk and lamenting Selma's death, and his subsequent bittersweet welcoming of Florence.
