* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XkHsinz7oU Harmonica vs the three gunmen]]. He outdraws them at clear disadvantage (pulling his gun from his baggage) and Creator/WoodyStrode still puts a bullet in him. The setup alone is pretty amazing.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybLIxkPAh7U Frank vs Harmonica]]: Harmonica shooting Frank as soon as the flashback ends. Followed by Harmonica shoving his namesake between Frank's teeth after said shooting. Morricone underscoring it all with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6BQKFs3-VM Harmonica's theme]] also deserves a very special mention.

* The first meeting between Cheyenne is almost unbearably tense, for all that no action actually takes place. At one point Cheyenne swings a lantern to get a look at Harmonica's face, and the way it's lit is like something out of a horror movie.

* Frank stages a rigged auction so that Jill has no choice to sell her land to him. Just the auctioneer is about to sell, Harmonica steps in and bids $5,000 with the bounty on Cheyenne as his payment.

Added DiffLines:

* Mr. Morton invoking ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney on Frank, which also doubles as a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, as Morton essentially calls out Frank for being too much of a thug and killer to survive in the cutthroat world of late 19th century American capitalism, where you can't just shoot, kill and terrorize the competition away.
-->'''Mr. Morton''': There are many things you'll never understand. This is one of them. *holds a stack of dollars while looking at Frank's drawn gun* You see, Frank, there are many kinds of weapons. And the only one that can stop that is this. Now, shall we get back to our little problem?

* When Cheyenne thought he could bully Jill sleeping with him, instead of curling into a weeping DamselInDistress she ''stood firm'' and '''taunted''' him ''and all his men'' to rape her, snarling how all it will take afterwards to wash away their memory is a hot bath. Having shown her strength of character, Cheyenne ''immediately'' begins to treat Jill with warmth, friendship and respect in their very next scene.
