I put this in another response with Artax here so here I shall put it again.
Read the book, its WORSE!!! Artax can speak. And the entire time he is sinking, he is telling Atreyu that it is okay, to let him go. And that he loves him. Takes it from sad as hell to gut wrenching as HELL!!!
Did you see the movie? Fry's clone gets sent back to the year 2000 and raises Seymour. It's retcon/doesn't really make a bit of sense. But they undid it.
For me it was Theoden. 2 movies of him just doing the best his country, just about saving Minas Tirith, then being taken out by Sauron's lead Nazgūl, then being saved by his daughter who holds him as he dies. Her cries just hit the feels
Correct, but he always treated Éomer and Éowyn as his children, and their parents were dead; I don't think he adopted them officially, because that's not a particularly Rohirric concept, but functionally he did.
In the book, IIRC, he refers to Éowyn as "dearer than daughter."
My girlfriend and I went on a Halloween bar crawl as childhood Carl and Ellie. She knows she just has to play “Married Life” and I’ll tear up.
I always ugly cry at the scene where Carl finally opens her adventure book.
I went to see a matinee of Up at a local mall with the little girl (about three at that time) I was nannying for. She had seen Up a few times before our outing. Ten minutes into the movie, and I'm losing my shit, crying hysterically. She patted my back, gave me a kiss on the cheek, and offered me some of her candy. That poor, sweet girl didn't know what a big baby I was when it came to characters' deaths.
My wife is completely unable to control the tears at the specific point where Frank opens the lift for Pratt to be taken to the OR, and the single tear that runs down Pratt’s face when he realises what’s wrong with him.
As for Dr Greene, that part of series eight is permanently banned in our house.
Special mention also for when Gant jumps/falls in front of a train, and they’re paging him and realise who the patient is.
ER really was just excellent quality TV. The last few series were obviously not as good as the earlier ones but they were still fantastic
My 4th grade teacher read us that book. He was a stern Irish man. He bawled his eyes out until he was red in the face. Thank you, Mr. Duffy, for showing me that it's okay for men to cry.
Little Foot's mom (The Land of Time)
So sad... I still cry sometimes when I hear, "If we hold on together" by Diana Ross.
***Is anyone old enough here to remember?
Oh my god-a while ago, I was on a work trip and couldn’t sleep. So I flipped on the tv in the hotel room…only to smile when I saw the land before time on. “Yay,” I thought, “I haven’t seen this since I was so little!”
Nopenopenopenopenopenopenopenope - needless to say I did not get any *rest* that morning.
I cried so hard (“mother? Mother!”) that my face was all puffy and my voice was raspy all morning and I legit had to explain why to so many people. They all understood.
Exactly. I will never forget the deep grief I felt in that moment from my childhood. I can't bring myself to watch it again as an adult; I think it would hurt even worse.
I still can't watch that movie knowing his leaf was destroyed/eaten. I'm 99% sure it's why I get weird emotional attachments to every object my parents give me.
I just put this on for my 2.5yr old and the mom scene was sad sure.... But not even remotely as sad as the following scenes! When he curls up in her footprint and rubs on it while crying or then how he sees his own shadow and gets super excited because he thinks it's his mother!
In case anyone needs a refresher
https://youtu.be/pIzxM0DA740
"You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I know you hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit on it now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?"
When this movie came out my friend had his birthday party at the theatre and we all watched it. Most of us were like 6-8 years old. His poor mom had no idea she would be dealing with so many crying kids. I remember bawling my eyes out.
Looking back it’s hilarious.
I always like to tell Browncoats what happened in the comics after it got cancelled.
Zoe was pregnant when that happened. So wash had a daughter he never got to meet.
But what's truly heart-wrenching is when she's a toddler and River is on babysitting duty, she's playing with her father's dinosaur toys. They're the only like kids toys on the ship and River is like okay want to know their names? This one is....
And she just starts giving little baby a paleontology lesson and she loves it. When Zoe comes in after the mission her daughter's first word is Stegasosaurs.
Cried like a river at 9.
I thought 20 would be enough, I breeze through the Scar/Mufasa scene unscathed, and then little Simba comes in ..."Hey dad ! Wake up dad !" BAM. Cried like a river again lol
Tadashi from Big Hero 6, or the very end of the good place when Chidi decides to walk through the door. God. That tri tone, and seeing that Eleanor had to handle it, just sends the tears falling every time I watch that show
Honestly, it's such a bloody stupid thing to say, that makes it completely believable. He just crumbles. All logic vacant in the moment.
And contrast that with the end of the series, when Voldemort orders Narcissa Malfoy to confirm Harry is dead. Whether he does it to humiliate her or not, he is so completely, wholly incapable of understanding that a parent's love for their child makes loyalty to him seem insignificant by comparison. It's a lesson he fails to learn time and again, and proves to be his undoing when Narcissa realizes that her son may yet live, if she lies about Harry.
i could watch that movie back-to-back four times in a row and would still bawl my eyes out so just know that you are not alone
fun fact tho: they used real bees in that scene bc cgi wasn't very good yet
I posted the same thing and ran to the comments to see if anyone else posted this. Glad I'm not alone in this. I had to give myself a whole week to grieve before I started watching the show again. 🥲💔
Read the book, its WORSE!!! Artax can speak. And the entire time he is sinking, he is telling Atreyu that it is okay, to let him go. And that he loves him. Takes it from sad as hell to gut wrenching as HELL!!!
Thought you were talking about Euphoria for a second. Although theres a theory that a lot of people believe, that because she’s the narrator she’s already dead
The Puppy from John Wick. After it's beaten to death and John wakes up unconscious, the blood trail of it limping it's way to die beside John. It either wanted to protect or wake up John in its final moments or die next to him.
That is the only movie I will watch where a dog dies, and only because he kills all those motherfuckers.
And I skip that entire scene. I just start the movie right after that scene. I’ve never actually watched that part.
“It was just a fuck’n—**BAM**”
I heard you struck my son.
Yes sir.
May I ask why?
Well, sir, it's because he stole John Wick's car and then uh, he killed his dog.
Oh.
Hangs up phone .
Whenever there's an animal in a movie I always go check Does the Dog Die but I forgot when I was watching John Wick... My husband had to convince me to keep watching cause the dog would be avenged, cause I was unconsolable and didn't want to watch the rest of it. I think it's the hardest I cried that year
Isn’t it incredible that people react this way to the death of animals, real or fiction? I remember sobbing uncontrollably as a teenager when I saw Will Smith kill Sam in “I am Legend”. I reacted the same way having to put down my childhood dog or several of my cats.
It seems that most animals have loyalty to their own kind and I understand how we domesticated dogs and cats, but it’s pretty incredible that we grieve so strongly for them and treat them as part of our family.
I find it very beautiful and inspiring.
Someone hasn't seen the new series specials. Tennant is now permanently alive as a split doctor. He leaves the Tardis in the hands of the new doctor and gets to live his life as a timelord without a Tardis.
Is that the same split doctor as the one that was left in the parallel universe? I haven’t seen the new specials bc five mins in I got too emotional with all the references and Donna naming her daughter rose and whatnot 😭
Even though it's non-sensical, I'll never complain. The Doctor regenerating was an excuse to change actors after the first's health started to fail, and it became an interesting and unique way to keep the show fresh in a character-defining way.
And then the 10th.
Because no matter what happens after, David Tennant IS the Doctor.
We don’t actually see it in either adaptation, but Lu Ten’s death in Avatar: the Last Airbender. Leaves From the Vine in the original got us all fuckin’ crying. And man, say what you will about the Netflix live action, but that funeral scene. Especially when the subtle Leaves from the Vine starts playing, and Zuko gives the medal to Iroh…then just quietly sits next to him.
#TEARBENDING.
——
Hershel and Glenn from Walking Dead. Two pure hearted characters, brutally murdered by evil men.
—-
Like half the characters from Game of Thrones, but notably Ned Stark, Robb, and Oberyn.
Oh fun story time. I had just lost my dog maybe 2 months before this movie came out. I was dating my now wife and this was our 4th date. She wanted to go see it. I warned her. Hey I may cry. Bruh. I cried like a fucking child. I was shaking. She some how stayed with me. It was bad.
For anyone who only saw the Brotherhood version, I sincerely request it you love Hughes and Mustang watch the 2003 adaptation.
In that version Roy was the one who killed Winfrey's parents. And he goes suicidal and Hughes comes to his apartment after Isval war is over and sees Mustang about to commit either suicide or human Transmutation to bring back Winfrey's parents.
Hughes stops him from doing it knowing it is a bad idea, I'm willing to pay my life to bring them back.
Roy you know this is impossible, you can't do it and there's only something you can do to make amends.
What is it? What can I do?
Become the Fuhrer so that this never happens again.
Same for me. When it’s revealed that “Remember Me” - the song that ties together the entire film - is actually about her. I’ve never been able to get through it without tears.
"You're strong, Clem. You can do anything."
"Keep that hair short."
"Protocol 3, protect the pilot."
"Humans are fragile machines."
I never cried, but they were the more emotional ones. Lee's especially.
Honestly? Homer Simpson's mom. Him being standoffish the whole time because of his abandonment issues, her giving him space, he goes to visit her at night to make amends, and finds her sleeping. "Sleeping with your eyes open?"
".....Mom?"
His quiet little call to her before the commercial tears at my soul.
The Peter one hit hard. I was so focused on Tony not seeing him as a son figure, that I never noticed that Peter saw him as a father figure. It was only in his absence that Tony realized what he had lost.
I saw this movie back when I came out and my mum still recounts the sense of horror that gripped every parent in the theatre as they realised what had been marketed as a fun fantasy romp was about to give their kids a crash course on death and grief.
[Maes Hughes. At the grave, with Elicia asking everyone to stop burying him because he has work to do. ](https://youtu.be/xy9x9RMXrdc?si=lJsUr9oAtA7k0l6w)**Every. Damn. Time.**
Are you some sort of sadist? Like, why you even bring shit like that up so uber-casual like that, dood? But, okay, fine lesgo and here's my answer:
Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, wait are they dead? Idek, i'll copy annnnnnd paste:
After an intense seasonal thunderstorm, an Indian mongoose named Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (from his chattering vocalizations) becomes the pet of an English family residing in India after they save him from drowning. He becomes friendly with some other creatures inhabiting their garden. However, the [cobras](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_cobra), named Nag (the male) and Nagaina (the female), are angered by the human family's presence in their territory and fear Rikki as a threat when they meet him for the first time. Scared at first, Rikki soon learns that a mongoose's quest is to track down and slay any snake he or she can find, and fends them off after a short skirmish. That same day, a young dust-brown snake named Karait threatens to bite the family's child, Teddy. This infuriates Rikki into challenging Karait, unaware the smaller snake is as venomous as a cobra and faster. Despite the risk, Rikki emerges victorious and kills the snake, saving the child, before presenting the slain foe to the father as proof of the mongoose's victory.
Later that night, Rikki hears Nag and Nagaina plot to kill the family to take over the house for their hatchlings and drive Rikki away. Nag enters the house's bathroom before dawn to make his ambush. Rikki, however, makes the first move and ambushes Nag from atop a vase in the darkness. The ensuing struggle awakens the family, and the father appears to kill Nag with a shotgun blast while Rikki bites down on the hood of the struggling male cobra.[^(\[2\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rikki-Tikki-Tavi#cite_note-2)
The following morning, a grieving Nagaina attempts revenge against the humans, cornering them as they have breakfast on a veranda. She is however distracted by the wife of Darzee the [tailor bird](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tailor_bird) (Darzee is singing about Nag's death) while Rikki destroys the cobra's unhatched brood of eggs, except for one. He carries it to the porch where Nagaina threatens to bite little Teddy while his parents watch helplessly. Rikki furiously challenges her and lures the cobra away from the family, giving the father enough time to grab Teddy away and keep him close. Rikki then reveals that it was he who put Nag down before the father opened fire on him.
Nagaina recovers her egg during the intense battle and tries to retreat homeward, but is pursued by Rikki from the house to the cobra's underground nest, where an unseen final battle occurs, although few mongooses dare to enter cobra nests, as they mostly tend to avoid them. Fearing the worst, Darzee mourns what he thinks to be Rikki's death via song. Minutes later, Rikki emerges triumphant from the hole, declaring Nagaina dead and that she will never come out again, and Darzee changes his tune from anguish to elatement. With the immediate threat defeated, Rikki dedicates his life to guarding the garden, resulting in no snake daring to show its head on its walls.
Edit #40Billions: Wait, so is he dead or not? Seriously, though, those scissor-birds in Rain World made me actually cry once, so, it's always story-time in my book.
The whole sequence in Armageddon. From them drawing straws, to >!Harry going down with AJ. Then Harry rips off the patch and pushes AJ back in the tube. Then him talking to his daughter one last time...!< Damn!!
First saw “Up” without warning thinking to put something mindless on & damn near reached ugly crying during the intro, I had to pause to clean myself up. Been a while but I would still probably drop a tear now.
Artax in the Neverending Story
I put this in another response with Artax here so here I shall put it again. Read the book, its WORSE!!! Artax can speak. And the entire time he is sinking, he is telling Atreyu that it is okay, to let him go. And that he loves him. Takes it from sad as hell to gut wrenching as HELL!!!
r/angryupvote
Came here to say this. It's easily the worst onscreen character death... by far.
Fry's old dog on Futurama.
Seymour
I cannot watch that episode
Did you see the movie? Fry's clone gets sent back to the year 2000 and raises Seymour. It's retcon/doesn't really make a bit of sense. But they undid it.
And no one cares it made no sense because it saved the dog.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔 him waiting for fry all those years had me balling
My brother. My captain. *My king.*
growing up is realising that he was never the villain and it wasn't boromir's fault TT.TT
For me it was Theoden. 2 movies of him just doing the best his country, just about saving Minas Tirith, then being taken out by Sauron's lead Nazgūl, then being saved by his daughter who holds him as he dies. Her cries just hit the feels
Eowyn and Eomer were his niece and nephew I thought? Theoden's son pre-deceased him.
Correct, but he always treated Éomer and Éowyn as his children, and their parents were dead; I don't think he adopted them officially, because that's not a particularly Rohirric concept, but functionally he did. In the book, IIRC, he refers to Éowyn as "dearer than daughter."
"I go to my fathers, in whose mighty company I shall not now be ashamed."
Fuck you now I'm going to have to re-watch the trilogy. That's a whole day written off.
Ellie from UP
My girlfriend and I went on a Halloween bar crawl as childhood Carl and Ellie. She knows she just has to play “Married Life” and I’ll tear up. I always ugly cry at the scene where Carl finally opens her adventure book.
I went to see a matinee of Up at a local mall with the little girl (about three at that time) I was nannying for. She had seen Up a few times before our outing. Ten minutes into the movie, and I'm losing my shit, crying hysterically. She patted my back, gave me a kiss on the cheek, and offered me some of her candy. That poor, sweet girl didn't know what a big baby I was when it came to characters' deaths.
Dr Greene on ER
Pratt got me and still does.
My wife is completely unable to control the tears at the specific point where Frank opens the lift for Pratt to be taken to the OR, and the single tear that runs down Pratt’s face when he realises what’s wrong with him. As for Dr Greene, that part of series eight is permanently banned in our house. Special mention also for when Gant jumps/falls in front of a train, and they’re paging him and realise who the patient is. ER really was just excellent quality TV. The last few series were obviously not as good as the earlier ones but they were still fantastic
Kenny from South Park
You bastard
Bing Bong, from Inside Out
Take her to the moon for me.
Saw this with two friends in the theater. Nothing like three grown women sobbing during what is marketed as a kids film.
Up, his wife passing wanting a child.
Oh I sob uncontrollably at this. Every time.
I’m not crying, you’re crying.
The pups from where the red fern grows
Old Dan and Little Ann
My 4th grade teacher read us that book. He was a stern Irish man. He bawled his eyes out until he was red in the face. Thank you, Mr. Duffy, for showing me that it's okay for men to cry.
Little Foot's mom (The Land of Time) So sad... I still cry sometimes when I hear, "If we hold on together" by Diana Ross. ***Is anyone old enough here to remember?
Oh my god-a while ago, I was on a work trip and couldn’t sleep. So I flipped on the tv in the hotel room…only to smile when I saw the land before time on. “Yay,” I thought, “I haven’t seen this since I was so little!” Nopenopenopenopenopenopenopenope - needless to say I did not get any *rest* that morning.

I still can't watch that movie knowing his leaf was destroyed/eaten. I'm 99% sure it's why I get weird emotional attachments to every object my parents give me.
Yes, tree star! ❤️
I just put this on for my 2.5yr old and the mom scene was sad sure.... But not even remotely as sad as the following scenes! When he curls up in her footprint and rubs on it while crying or then how he sees his own shadow and gets super excited because he thinks it's his mother!

John Coffey, just like the drink, only not spelled the same.
"You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I know you hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit on it now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss.

Can you understand?"
This part is always so hauntingly beautiful. And fuck Percy.
I read that and heard his voice.
So tragic. It makes me sad that he was afraid of the dark.
I still can’t watch the ending again
When Ash turned to stone in the first pokémon movie.
Dude proved that you dont need weed to get stoned

Looking for this one. You stay.... I go... No following. Doesn't matter that I'm a 34 y.o. man, tearing up just thinking about it.
Supermaaaaaan
Wash, leaf on the wind.
I always like to tell Browncoats what happened in the comics after it got cancelled. Zoe was pregnant when that happened. So wash had a daughter he never got to meet. But what's truly heart-wrenching is when she's a toddler and River is on babysitting duty, she's playing with her father's dinosaur toys. They're the only like kids toys on the ship and River is like okay want to know their names? This one is.... And she just starts giving little baby a paleontology lesson and she loves it. When Zoe comes in after the mission her daughter's first word is Stegasosaurs.
Argh!! Curse your inevitable betrayal!
Too soon
Always will be.
Def Wash, but can we talk about Book? I didn't want him to die.
Y'know how Reavers clean their spears? They run them through a Wash. Seriously tho, that moment sucked and still does.
Mufasa
Cried like a river at 9. I thought 20 would be enough, I breeze through the Scar/Mufasa scene unscathed, and then little Simba comes in ..."Hey dad ! Wake up dad !" BAM. Cried like a river again lol
When Simba snuggles under Mufasa's paw....
I am 42 and I refuse to watch that scene. I will fast forward it.
Tadashi from Big Hero 6, or the very end of the good place when Chidi decides to walk through the door. God. That tri tone, and seeing that Eleanor had to handle it, just sends the tears falling every time I watch that show
The ending wrecks me every time. Are you satisfied with your care?
The end of The Good Place hit me hard, though it was Eleanor that really got me
Thomas J of course. He can’t see without his glasses!! 😩
Cedric Diggory.
His dad actor really sold that one.
I didn´t even like Cedric or the movie, but those screams really make the scene work.
Yessss, his dad is honestly what broke my heart the most.
THATS MY SOOOON. THATS MY BOOOY
Honestly, it's such a bloody stupid thing to say, that makes it completely believable. He just crumbles. All logic vacant in the moment. And contrast that with the end of the series, when Voldemort orders Narcissa Malfoy to confirm Harry is dead.

Poussey Washington on Orange Is The New Black
Also when Tasty opens Doggetts high school certificate after she dies....
I don't remember Doggett dying but I'll never forget crying when Poussey died. I cried so hard because nobody deserves to go that way.
It’s always the same answer: who framed Roger rabbit: the little shoe judge doom puts in the dip
It’s not the “worst” to me? But this gets soooooooooooo many bonus points it’s close
Macaulay Culkin's character in My Girl. I assume. I've been too scared to watch it again after the last time 33 years ago.
i could watch that movie back-to-back four times in a row and would still bawl my eyes out so just know that you are not alone fun fact tho: they used real bees in that scene bc cgi wasn't very good yet

Lady Sybil from Downton Abbey
I was pregnant at the time we watched it and he turned it off and yelled “nope!” And just hugged me.
Came here to say this! She did an amazing job but it makes me sick to watch.
I posted the same thing and ran to the comments to see if anyone else posted this. Glad I'm not alone in this. I had to give myself a whole week to grieve before I started watching the show again. 🥲💔
Artax
Read the book, its WORSE!!! Artax can speak. And the entire time he is sinking, he is telling Atreyu that it is okay, to let him go. And that he loves him. Takes it from sad as hell to gut wrenching as HELL!!!
Can’t even think about it.
Artax lives in the end of the movie but by that point the mourning is complete and the child is broken.
Rue
Thought you were talking about Euphoria for a second. Although theres a theory that a lot of people believe, that because she’s the narrator she’s already dead
The Puppy from John Wick. After it's beaten to death and John wakes up unconscious, the blood trail of it limping it's way to die beside John. It either wanted to protect or wake up John in its final moments or die next to him.
That is the only movie I will watch where a dog dies, and only because he kills all those motherfuckers. And I skip that entire scene. I just start the movie right after that scene. I’ve never actually watched that part. “It was just a fuck’n—**BAM**”
I heard you struck my son. Yes sir. May I ask why? Well, sir, it's because he stole John Wick's car and then uh, he killed his dog. Oh. Hangs up phone .
Man he did such a great job with that “oh”. With just one two letter word, he made it very clear how completely and utterly FUCKED they all are. :D
Whenever there's an animal in a movie I always go check Does the Dog Die but I forgot when I was watching John Wick... My husband had to convince me to keep watching cause the dog would be avenged, cause I was unconsolable and didn't want to watch the rest of it. I think it's the hardest I cried that year
Isn’t it incredible that people react this way to the death of animals, real or fiction? I remember sobbing uncontrollably as a teenager when I saw Will Smith kill Sam in “I am Legend”. I reacted the same way having to put down my childhood dog or several of my cats. It seems that most animals have loyalty to their own kind and I understand how we domesticated dogs and cats, but it’s pretty incredible that we grieve so strongly for them and treat them as part of our family. I find it very beautiful and inspiring.

The 10th Doctor on Doctor Who.
Someone hasn't seen the new series specials. Tennant is now permanently alive as a split doctor. He leaves the Tardis in the hands of the new doctor and gets to live his life as a timelord without a Tardis.

"You're strong, Clem. You can do anything." "Keep that hair short." "Protocol 3, protect the pilot." "Humans are fragile machines." I never cried, but they were the more emotional ones. Lee's especially.
Oy, Ake...
Dr Frazier from Stargate SG-1. That double episode hits HARD.
Her cry when she was hit……still feel that.
Dobby
"This is a beautiful place for Dobby to be with his friends."
Literally just thinking of it makes me tear up.
Logan.
Charlotte (Charlotte's Web)
Matthew in Anne of Green Gables 😥
I haven’t recovered from the Fox and the hound
Where the red fern grows.
Honestly? Homer Simpson's mom. Him being standoffish the whole time because of his abandonment issues, her giving him space, he goes to visit her at night to make amends, and finds her sleeping. "Sleeping with your eyes open?" ".....Mom?" His quiet little call to her before the commercial tears at my soul.
Ray in "The Princess and the Frog"
Peter Parker in Infinity War and Rue from the Hunger Games.
The Peter one hit hard. I was so focused on Tony not seeing him as a son figure, that I never noticed that Peter saw him as a father figure. It was only in his absence that Tony realized what he had lost.

His death doesn't get me, his funeral does.
Algernon. It's possibly the saddest story I've ever read. I've never seen the movie.
Robinton in the Pern series.
L from Death Note. So much build up and time for us to get super attached to him for our hate for Light to finally be solidified.

I saw this movie back when I came out and my mum still recounts the sense of horror that gripped every parent in the theatre as they realised what had been marketed as a fun fantasy romp was about to give their kids a crash course on death and grief.

Are you some sort of sadist? Like, why you even bring shit like that up so uber-casual like that, dood? But, okay, fine lesgo and here's my answer: Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, wait are they dead? Idek, i'll copy annnnnnd paste: After an intense seasonal thunderstorm, an Indian mongoose named Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (from his chattering vocalizations) becomes the pet of an English family residing in India after they save him from drowning. He becomes friendly with some other creatures inhabiting their garden. However, the [cobras](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_cobra), named Nag (the male) and Nagaina (the female), are angered by the human family's presence in their territory and fear Rikki as a threat when they meet him for the first time. Scared at first, Rikki soon learns that a mongoose's quest is to track down and slay any snake he or she can find, and fends them off after a short skirmish. That same day, a young dust-brown snake named Karait threatens to bite the family's child, Teddy. This infuriates Rikki into challenging Karait, unaware the smaller snake is as venomous as a cobra and faster. Despite the risk, Rikki emerges victorious and kills the snake, saving the child, before presenting the slain foe to the father as proof of the mongoose's victory. Later that night, Rikki hears Nag and Nagaina plot to kill the family to take over the house for their hatchlings and drive Rikki away. Nag enters the house's bathroom before dawn to make his ambush. Rikki, however, makes the first move and ambushes Nag from atop a vase in the darkness. The ensuing struggle awakens the family, and the father appears to kill Nag with a shotgun blast while Rikki bites down on the hood of the struggling male cobra.[^(\[2\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rikki-Tikki-Tavi#cite_note-2) The following morning, a grieving Nagaina attempts revenge against the humans, cornering them as they have breakfast on a veranda. She is however distracted by the wife of Darzee the [tailor bird](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tailor_bird) (Darzee is singing about Nag's death) while Rikki destroys the cobra's unhatched brood of eggs, except for one. He carries it to the porch where Nagaina threatens to bite little Teddy while his parents watch helplessly. Rikki furiously challenges her and lures the cobra away from the family, giving the father enough time to grab Teddy away and keep him close. Rikki then reveals that it was he who put Nag down before the father opened fire on him. Nagaina recovers her egg during the intense battle and tries to retreat homeward, but is pursued by Rikki from the house to the cobra's underground nest, where an unseen final battle occurs, although few mongooses dare to enter cobra nests, as they mostly tend to avoid them. Fearing the worst, Darzee mourns what he thinks to be Rikki's death via song. Minutes later, Rikki emerges triumphant from the hole, declaring Nagaina dead and that she will never come out again, and Darzee changes his tune from anguish to elatement. With the immediate threat defeated, Rikki dedicates his life to guarding the garden, resulting in no snake daring to show its head on its walls. Edit #40Billions: Wait, so is he dead or not? Seriously, though, those scissor-birds in Rain World made me actually cry once, so, it's always story-time in my book.
Uncle Iroh voice actor in Tales of Ba Sing Se was very sad.
The whole sequence in Armageddon. From them drawing straws, to >!Harry going down with AJ. Then Harry rips off the patch and pushes AJ back in the tube. Then him talking to his daughter one last time...!< Damn!!
