Moral Orel/Tear Jerker: Difference between revisions

** The ending of "Sacrifice". Having driven all his friends to hating him, Clay spends his time in the bar getting drunk, not going to church, work, or even home to see his family on Easter.

*** Especially sad as Clay misses his {{spoiler|(okay, Daniel's)}} son's first complete sentence.

* Bloberta's reaction to Shapey is quite sad, while he's trying to grab her attention she's trashing the kitchen looking for the handkerchief that Dr. Potterswheel gave her, and tries to blindly push him away with, "Not now, Shapey." Only to stop in her tracks in shock at what Shapey said, ending the scene looking remorseful.

* Waitwaitwait, hold the phone. How is "Honor" not on here yet? Clay, whom we manically flip between loathing entirely and feeling sorry for, finally snaps and comes out of the closet in front of his entire family, confessing his love to his best friend who coldly rejects him, having come over the course of the episode to realize what a monster Clay is. While it's one of the most heartwarming episodes of the series as far as wrapping everything up (tearjerking in its own right), it serves as the final nail in Clay's coffin. If we can judge by the pictures on the walls of adult!Orel's house, Clay pretty much lives and dies alone and unloved by anybody except out of obligation.
