* Pretty much the entirety of ''Dolan's Cadillac''. The meticulous planning, determination and sheer backbreaking ''hard work'' Robinson commits himself to in his quest for revenge is simply astonishing, and it all culminates in a very sweet ([[BestServedCold but brutal]]) payoff against a villain who would have otherwise [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty cleanly escaped justice for having Robinson's wife murdered]].

* "The Doctor's Case." [[TheWatson Dr. John Watson]] proves he's no slouch at observation and deduction, solving the Hull case in a second after seeing what everyone else, including Sherlock Holmes, missed. (Though, if Holmes's eyes hadn't been watering from his allergy, he'd undoubtedly have seen the clue that solves the case as well. No matter what, Watson's accomplishment is pretty impressive.)

* Maddie Pace and the other good citizens of Gennesault Island from ''Home Delivery'' are a savvy bunch, indeed. When reports start coming in that [[ZombieApocalypse the dead are rising from their graves and feasting on the living]], the townsfolk unanimously decide that they will be having ''none'' of that shit in their community, thankyouverymuch. They tool up and head down to the island's only cemetery, blast every zombie to pieces the moment it claws its way out of the earth, cut those pieces into smaller pieces, and burn them all into a mound of ashy tallow. Maddie herself is surprised at home by the soggy corpse of her dead husband, and doesn't hesitate to grab an axe and do what must be done:
