I See the Light vs. Sign Removal

Your Champion
I See the Light
(Tangled)

VS

Your Challenger
Sign Removal

The Case for I See the Light (1):
Having taken Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) to see the floating lights that unknowingly marks her disappearance each year, Flynn (Zachary Levi) realizes that he has developed feelings for her - just as Rapunzel realizes the same.

The Case for Sign Removal:
Al Harrison (Kevin Costner) rather flippantly asks why Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson) is missing so often, leading to Katherine passionately detailing the everyday racism she is having to deal with while working for NASA.  Somewhat shamed by her outburst, Harrison removes the signs differentiating the bathrooms between the races.
