* Samson walking into the bar in Babylon in "Pick a Number" and proceeding to [[spoiler: shoot Stangler right below his eye, despite Carny Justice already having been dispensed]].
* In the 1st season finale: Ben, after realizing he'll have to take a life to save another's using his powers, [[spoiler: goes through with it and slits his own throat as the exchange]].
* In "Insomnia", Samson manages to get one up on Lodz by [[spoiler: giving him Scudder's watch and watching him convulse]]. Considering what Lodz has done up to that point, it's definitely worth it.

* Iris Crowe's [[spoiler: confession to setting the fire that burned down her brother's ministry]]: ''I did it for you''. Absolutely chilling, and her Crowning Moment of Creepy as well.
