*** TheReveal was even more awesome for this troper: at the very beginning of the game, he actually noticed how odd it was when Atlas said [[spoiler: "Would you kindly?"]] while asking him to pick up the radio. We're in some kind of underwater hell and you're wasting time being polite? After thinking about it for a minute, however, this troper concluded that Atlas was just being somewhat sarcastic and that his line was just a bit of clever writing. OH, HOW WRONG HE WAS.
*** This Troper got the hunch that [[spoiler:Atlas was Fontaine all along]], but the voice switchover was so unsettling, it was still a CMOA. That should say something about how well the game was done.
* Setting Sander Cohen's Quadytch ''on fire'' after finishing it. This troper has ''never'' felt anything quite so satisfying as wrecking that sadistic bastard's "masterpiece" while he's watching it.
** No, killing Sander and [[spoiler: getting the Irony achievement for snapping a picture of his corpse]] is.
* Then there's the beginning of the game with the entry into Rapture. TwoWords: SceneryPorn.
* Try looking just up above the first Little Sister you can save or harvest. "The great shall not be constrained by the small," indeed...
* The scene where Sander Cohen [[spoiler:thinks you're mocking his masterpiece and sends several Splicers after you]] while Waltz of the Flowers plays. It's such an incredible scene. Seriously, try not to be amazed when [[spoiler:you whack a Splicer and it goes twirling off to the side as if it's some grotesque ballet]]. And the fact that Sander shouts out [[spoiler: "Fly, little moth. Fly!" and "Smile! SMILE!" like it really IS a grotesque ballet]] makes it all the more better.
* From the sequel, one plasmid, six words: [[spoiler:Bring Your Daughter to Work Day]].
* [[spoiler:Eleanor Lamb gets one when you learn the full scope of the intricate plan she set up behind her [[EvilMatriarch mother's]] back to resurrect the 7-years-dead Subject Delta (you) and lead him/you to her. And of course, she gets a minor one every time you use the above-mentioned Summon Eleanor Plasmid to call her to the field and watch her wreak utter havoc against your now-very-outmatched enemies. Lastly, in [[MultipleEndings some of the endings]], watching her, in the final cutscene, slay her CompleteMonster of a mother.]]
* Not nessicarily in-game, but [[UnusualEuphemism sweet Splicers]], [[http://www.split-screen.com/2010/02/27/impressive-bioshock-2-big-daddy-wood-carving/ this]].
* Porter's response to Lamb inviting him into the Family. It's likely he may not have fully known what she was up to, but ''damn'' if it doesn't feel good.
-->'''PORTER:''' Dear Doctor Lamb, I received the invitation to your little social club today. In return, I'd like to make you a wager. I wager you need Rapture Central Computing just a little bit more than I need your half-baked metaphysical mumbo-jumbo. I deal in science, not... whatever it is you're up to. You keep out of Minerva's Den, and I'll keep this city's automation from grinding to a complete and sudden halt. Sound fair?
