Tintin/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* ''[[Tintin/Recap/Tintin in Tibet|Recap]]''. Chang goes through a real [[Trauma Conga Line]], having survived a plane crash with injuries. Then a Yeti takes him and while Chang thinks the Yeti's going to eat him, the Yeti actually brings him food so he'll get his strength back up. Then later in the story, he reveals that the Yeti picked him up and took him away from the previous cave because Tintin was coming to the crash site. The Yeti did this because he was afraid that Tintin and co was coming to harm Chang, so the Yeti was actually trying to ''protect'' Chang. After Chang is rescued and finally being taken to where he can receive medical attention, the Yeti's sad cries are heard (and by the characters as well!) because of the loss of [[My God, What Have I Done?|the yeti's only friend]]. It ended well; but had they been unable to save Chang, he probably would have died in the mountains because the Yeti didn't know Chang really needed medical attention even though he had saved Chang's life. It also doubles as a [[Tear Jerker]].

** Another extremely heartwarming incident in the same story: Captain Haddock attempts to sacrifice himself by cutting his lifeline in order to save Tintin, who is tied to the other end and unable to pull Haddock up. If there was any doubt that Haddock is a heroic and loyal friend despite his vices, this scene obliterates it.

* Wulff's [[Heroic Sacrifice]] in ''Explorers On the Moon''. Especially in the Nelvana adaptation wherein Captain Haddock yells at the Thompson and Thomson duo not to say anything bad about Wulff.

* Tintin hugging Haddock in "Tintin In Tibet" for being a great friend.

* Haddock's motivational speech to Tintin during his [[Heroic BSOD]] stage:

{{quote|'''Captain Haddock:''' I thought you were an optimist.

* After the chase in Morocco, Tintin {{spoiler|is wrestling Sahkarine's bird for the last scroll. Sahkarine threatens to drown Haddock if Tintin doesn't let the bird go. Sahkarine drops Haddock into the water, and Tintin goes after him instead of getting the scrolls first. Aww.}}
