* Big Sam rescuing Scarlett from two men that are trying to rape her. Keep in mind, at first he doesn't even know it's his former owner (who he does still hold some affection for) calling for help. All he hears is a woman in distress and immediately jumps into action, not caring if she's black or white. He takes out of of the men with ''one'' [[BewareTheNiceOnes punch]] and throws the other into the creek after a struggle. In the book, he even offers to go back and beat them up worse if she wants him to. Scarlett, usually a cold-hearted bitch towards anyone who helps her since she thinks that means weakness in herself, realizes how lucky she was Sam heard her, and thanks him profusely.
