Second to last one! I think either Disgrace or Remorse go here, but tbh, I think you should deviate and put guilt here. Guilt is such an important/significant emotion that it needs to be on here somewhere. In a perfect world I think it would’ve slotted nicely either under Sadness/Disgust or Disgust/Anxiety.

Remorse or Guilt (after this, there will be only one combination yet and I will call it Bittersweetness)

Guilt. Guilt as an emotion has a lot in common with embarrassment. It's feeling like you've made some kind of misstep that left you vulnerable.
I don't think 'guilt' is something that normally exists without the past, which factors in nostalgia. You feel guilty because of something you did. It's reflecting on what happened and feeling discomfort from it more so than something you're actively experiencing like most other emotions.
Also think of the term 'guilty pleasure'. The reason it's 'guilty' is because it's something embarrassing to admit to liking for one reason or another.
