Apologies, Forgiveness and Reconcilements

Forgiveness is perhaps the hardest thing anyone can do, because the things that truly need forgiving are usually those that hurt the deepest.

There are few things why the heroes should forgave the other or redeemed villains:


 * For lying and tricking them since the first movie, etc.


 * For betraying them.


 * For killing their family, friends or love ones.


 * For selfishly disowning a family member.


 * For trying to take over the world.

Examples

 * Squidward aplogizing to SpongeBob for playing a nasty prank on him at the Krusty Krab.


 * Max apologizing to Goofy for selfishly disowning him as a father.


 * Darkwing Duck and Gosalyn reconcile after defeating Negaduck.


 * Dustin Brooks and Tori Hanson forgiving Shane Clarke for what he did in order to work together as a team.


 * Joe Carey forgiving B'Elanna Torres and working together on a fresh start.


 * Timmy Turner reconciling with his parents after defeating Vicky in Maho Mushi.


 * Alan Parrish reconciling with his dad after finishing Jumanji.


 * Anastasia reconciling with Dimitri after discovering the truth and defeating Rasputin.


 * Joseph revealing himself to his brothers and forgiving them.


 * Angelica Pickles aplogizing to her father for wrecking his home office and running away.

Quote
"(Joseph has just accused Benjamin of stealing his cup and is about to take him away) (Benjamin: I didn't take it! Someone put it in there!) (Judah [stepping up for Benjamin]: Stop! Take me instead.) (Simeon: No, take me!) (Reuben: No, me!) (All brothers beg Joseph to take them instead of Benjamin) (Judah: Take any of us, Your Grace, but please, let the boy go.) You'd sacrifice yourselves for a half brother who's spoiled by your father?(Judah: Yes.) Why? Why should you care if I take him, beat him, make him a slave? (Judah: Because I will not make my father suffer...again.) Again? What do you mean "again?" (Judah: Our brother was not killed by wolves. We were blinded by jealousy and sold him into slavery. For 20 years, we've lived with that guilt.) (Joseph drops his dagger to the ground.) (Judah: We can't go back without the boy. My father could not bear it a second time. And neither could we. If any of us should be punished, it should be us.) (Judah grabs Joseph's robe begging; Joseph sees how genuinely remorseful his brothers are. Joseph can't take it anymore.) I will not harm any of you. Or or father. I am your brother Joseph. (Judah, [looks up, shocked]: Joseph?) (Reuben: I can't believe you're here.) (Simeon: H-How can it be?) (Benjamin: Joseph?) I have so much to tell you, so many questions to ask.  (Judah, [hugging Joseph, close to tears]: Oh, Joseph. Can you ever forgive us?) I already have. Can you forgive me, for thinking I was some miracle from God? (Judah: But you ARE a miracle. God sent you to save our family and all of Egypt. And you did.) Asenath? Please. I'd like you to meet my brothers. (Joseph's brothers and Asenath happily greet each other) You will join me here! All of you! With your families!"

Both: We love you! (Mr. Turner pushes Mrs. Turner) Mr. Turner: But I love you more. (Timmy decides that it is time to return to the real world) Doug Dimmadome: But he did ruin my chances of moving the ball hogs to alaska, and I'd already bought them blubber nuggets, but they were chewy. (Mr. and Mrs. Turner leave the recording room) Mr. Turner (to Mrs. Turner): Do you think he heard the message? (Timmy magically appears out of the TV and sees his parents) Timmy Turner: You bet, I did. Both: Timmy! (Mr. and Mrs. Turner hug Timmy) Mr. Turner: Neat! Our son has forgiven you, and our family is back together. Mrs. Turner (To Doug Dimmadome): Oh, how can we ever thank you? Doug Dimmadome: By getting the heck of my office. That kid is nothing but trouble, (Security guards take Mr. and Mrs. Turner and Timmy out of the Cable Station) but then again, he did teach me the greatest love of all is inside of me."

(Alan and Sam hug again) Sam Parrish: Look Alan, I was angry and I'm sorry too. I'm sorry. (Sam looks at Alan) Look, you don't have to go to Cliffside if you don't want to. (Sarah Whittle sees Alan reuniting with his dad) Let's talk it over tommorrow, man to man. Alan Parrish (stops being sad): How about father to son? Sam Parrish: All right. Hey, I gotta get going. I'm the guest of honor. (Sam begins to leave and Alan tells him one more thing) Alan Parrish: Dad? Back in- I mean, today in the factory, it wasn't Carl Bentley's fault.
