Star Trek: Retribution/Heartwarming


 * The conversation in the shuttle, when you realize these two characters that had barely tolerated each other in Specter now seem to be close friends.
 * The moment during the launch sequence when Prentice offers Reyf the command chair "once more, for old time's sake." Reyf declines, telling Prentice that the Fitzgerald is his now. You realize right then how much respect Prentice has for Reyf, and you also realize that Reyf is acknowledging that Prentice is all growed up.
 * The scene in sickbay between Mitchell and Kal. You can't help but go "awww" when you see Mitchell sitting at Kal's bedside waiting for her to wake up.
 * After the escape from Romulan space, the end of the scene in Engineering between Ronston and Prentice. She orders him to bed with a tough-as-nails attitude, only for it to turn into a warm moment when she smiles after he leaves. It's the third hint of the movie that there's history between them we don't know about, possibly even some Unresolved Sexual Tension.
 * There's a scene in the Jeffries tubes between the pessimistic security chief and the ever-optimistic chief engineer. Mitchell calls her out for being negative, prompting a discussion about who's fighting for what. Mitchell cites her relationship with the blue-haired Kal as her reason to stay positive and hope for the best, which is when Hargrove admits that she's alone and very bitter about it (complete with a quote from Chancellor Martok), hence her general lack of optimism. What makes it a Heartwarming Moment is when Mitchell tells her she doesn't have to be alone if she doesn't want to, and asks her to join her and Kal for dinner once the crisis is over.
 * Hargrove even lampshades the moment with a Deadpan Snarker line, "This is getting maudlin."
 * The scene where Kendra contacts her ex-husband Merv to set things right.
