* Andrew Aguecheek "speaking French" in Act III, scene 1. Hamish Linklater stole every scene that he was in, he was just ridiculous.
*Speaking of which: Where Cesario and Andrew cross swords, both clearly terrified and chagrined by the idea.
*Where Cesario is going on about how she might hypothetically love Orsino if, hypothetically, "he" were a woman. And Orsino looks at him with this long silence and an expression of "Okay, I'm going to pretend you didn't say that."
*Viola and Sebastian reunited -- I think it's a brilliant bit of plotting on Shakespeare's part that this incredibly joyous moment, of these two people who thought each other dead, is also the moment that untangles all the messy "people in love the wrong way 'round" stuff.
*Olivia being kind of surprised that she's not married to the person she thought, but then realizing that Cesario is still going to be her sister-in-law. Because, even as Cesario has been protesting against Olivia's love for the whole length of the play, there really seems to be a bond between them -- after all, they've both lost a brother recently...
*The part at the very end where they sing, "For the rain it raineth every day." Which drew a big laugh because indeed the rain it raineth every day lately.
