Line 40:
* [[Jerkass|Victor]] has spent the entirety of the album being a jackass [[The Starscream|starscream]]-wannabe. After the reveal of {{spoiler|the whole [[Jekyll and Hyde|Henrietta/Miss Hit]] trainwreck}}, you would think [[Dirty Coward|he]] would just go back home and get out of this, especially after being utterly humiliated. [[OOC Is Serious Business|Instead]], he joins Frank, Lupo and Piruja in stopping Miss Hit and rescue everyone. Granted, he's still abrasive as always, but the fact [[It's All About Me|he]] '''willingly''' joined to help his [[With Friends Like These...|disliked]] friends to save people he doesn't give a crap ''for no reason whatsoever'', it's an incredibly powerful [[Pet the Dog]] moment. Maybe he's [[Hidden Heart of Gold|not so bad]] after all...
** This is even more heartwarming considering he usually has no compunctions over putting Villa Susto and its citizens in danger (though only to go back to Miedópolis), but in this album he reluctantly but willingly tries to save them from Miss Hit's machinations, [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|showing some common decency]] [[What You Are in the Dark|when things are tough]].
* At the end of the album, {{spoiler|after Frank saves her, Henrietta sends him a photo of her as thanks. Frank himself ''tried'' to give her a gift: A Perfeccionator-ized butterfly
** {{spoiler|Sadly, it's rejected by her dad due to her [[Ill Girl]] status, but his sister Francesca (whom they've spent bickering all this time) compensates by giving him a photo of her brother. While snarky about it, it's nice to see her caring for her little brother.}}
** {{spoiler|And what does Frank with the butterfly? He gives it to Piruja to compensate for using her potion to save Henrietta.}} Again: Aaaww...
Line 59 ⟶ 60:
* In "Lupo y sus Hermanos" (Lupo's Siblings), Momses goes to Lupo's house to play outside, only to find out he can't due to him taking care of his younger siblings. What does he do? He helps him in taking care of them, of course!
** Also, his younger siblings wanting to play with Momses. The fact they're [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|
** Also, seeing Lupo acting like a responsible older brother with them. Of course, [[Sleepyhead|he falls asleep soon afterwards]], and his little siblings have to take care of him instead. It's heartwarming regardless.
Line 72 ⟶ 73:
* Almost the entire "¿Cuál es tu lugar favorito de Villa Susto?" (Where is your favourite place in Villa Susto?) story, in which [[Gadgeteer Genius|Frank]], [[Cute Witch|Piruja]], [[Bedsheet Ghost|Gus]], [[Sleepyhead|Lupo]], [[Redheaded Bully|Quasim]], [[The Pig Pen|Billy]] and [[Lovable Jock|Momses]] happily discuss where's their favorite place in there. Oh, and there's [[Spoiled Brat|Victor]], who instead says he hates the town.
* In "Cambio Radical" (Wild Makeover), [[Perky Goth|Guillotine]] helping [[Cute Witch|Piruja]] in
**
* In "La Niña Invisible" (Invisible Girl), [[Gang of Bullies|Morty's Gang]]'s member Mienai awkwardly begs Lupo for help to find his little sister. After much reluctance, Lupo accepts. Cue his little siblings happily
** During the entire story, Mienai is shown to be actually a nice and friendly guy when left to his own, which heavily implies he has a [[Jerkass Facade]] caused by [[Toxic Friend Influence|his asshat "friends"]]. At the end, he even thanks Lupo for it.
Line 89 ⟶ 90:
* When Frank and Morty discuss the conditions of their match's bet, they decide what they want of the other if their respective teams win the match. What does Morty want? [[Brain Food|Frank's brains]]. Frank? [[We Want Our Jerk Back|Getting Victor back to his gang]]. That's right: Despite Victor's betrayal, he still cares for him, at least enough not to let him in [[The Sociopath|Morty]]'s company.
* Billy welcoming Morty's Gang into his home (the town dump). We even get to see him with his younger sister Milly happily leaving to classify the dirt! {{spoiler|Which makes [[No Good Deed Goes Unpunished|what happens to him]] all the more [[Tear Jerker|heartbreaking]].}}
* Frank [[Shut Up Hannibal|shutting Skin up]] for insulting Lupo's [[Sleepyhead]] behavior.
Line 94 ⟶ 97:
* The Frank's gang considering [[The Pig Pen|Billy]] [[The Reliable One]] to act as Victor's replacement on the team.
* Frank reacting with [[Big Yes|utter joy]] when Piruja comes back to serve as the team's fifth member.
* When Morty [[Evil Gloating|smugly brags]] to Frank about how soon he'll eat his brains, [[Lovable Coward|Gus]] wastes no time in trying to protect him, saying his brains must taste terrible to dissuade him.
Line 101 ⟶ 104:
* While Mrs. Einstein [[Running Gag|constantly kissing Frank]] is hilarious, it shows how much she loves her son. She even tells him she's [[So Proud of You|proud of him]] when she sees him trying to intervene between Víctor, Lupo and Momses {{spoiler|while the latter two confront the former about his betrayal.}}
** The first time she does this, she asks him if she's the best mom in the world. Frank, while deeply embarrassed, agrees.
* After {{spoiler|winning the match}}, Frank offers Gus to {{spoiler|carry the trophy}} by calling him "the best Torch Captain ever".
Line 124 ⟶ 128:
* {{spoiler|When told about the [[MacGuffin|Snow Mandrake]], Henrietta wants to use it to stop transforming into [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Miss Hit]]. Why? Because she wants to stop accidentally hurting the guy she likes (ie. [[Love Interest|Frank]]). If there was any doubt she reciprocated Frank's feelings, this pretty much should dispel all of them.}}
** At the end, {{spoiler|Henrietta is sad because she couldn't use the mandrake. Frank tells her not to worry, since he has started to like Miss Hit a bit too.}} Aaww...
* [[Fiery Redhead|Miss Hit]] has come a long way since her debut. {{spoiler|She goes [[Leeroy Jenkins]] on [[The Hunter|Flan Helsing's]] ass while calling the Frank's Gang her friends (while she previously tried to brainwash them), and has gone from hating Frank to sharing Henrietta's crush on him, to the point of getting offended when he said he only liked her one bit.}} Not bad from the series' first [[Knight of Cerebus]].
Line 142 ⟶ 146:
* The "Todo Minimonsters"'s extra drawings frequently portray Frank's Gang in usually weird situations. While always hilarious, it's adorable seeing all the six characters ([[Spoiled Brat|Victor]], [[Gadgeteer Genius|Frank]], [[Cute Witch|Piruja]], [[Sleepyhead|Lupo]], [[The Cutie|Gus]] and [[Lovable Jock|Momses]]) together as a group. [http://www.uiardejapis.es/autores/r/ramirez_david/3x3/2.jpg This image] in particular shows the whole group as [[True Companions|close-knit friends]] who will face anything together, whether they want to or not.
** If there was any doubt the Frank's Gang are [[True Companions]], David Ramírez's [https://twitter.com/DavidRamirezRos/status/1063044099119480838 twitter] describes them as "inseparable friends".
