* Emily's fight with the White Haired Man. The guy is a trained assassin with what must be several decades of experience on her, and she still kicks his ass. And then she [[spoiler: lets him live, because that's what her father would have wanted]]. True, that last part blows up in her face, but it's still impressive as both a fight and characterization.
* Emily finally goes one better in season 2, episode 6, wherein she [[spoiler: frames Conrad for Gordon Murphy's death]], setting the stage for Daniel to take over Grayson Global, and apparently as part of a plan to deal with Mason Treadwell once and for all.

* In season 4, David is getting close to Natalie, a lovely woman who's the widow of Conrad's late father. At a party, as they make out, Natalie suddenly starts calling out for David to "stop it!" David realizes that Natalie used to be Conrad's lover but he dumped her and so she's now working on a massive campaign for revenge. Natalie gloats to David that she basically starved Conrad's dad until he signed the will leaving his money to her and is now going to ruin his reputation by telling everyone at the party that David attacked her. She turns to leave...and runs right into a smirking Victoria who recorded Natalie's entire confession. Victoria tells Natalie to sign over the money to her and then get out of town or she turns Natalie in for fraud and abuse. A defeated Natalie realizes too late that when it comes to being a conniving bitch, she's nothing compared to Victoria.

* Emily's takedown of Judge Barnes in "Power." What makes it even more awesome is that she didn't really need to manipulate anyone in order to make it happen, just convince his abused and long-suffering wife to expose his as the corrupt wife beater he is and finally stand up for herself.

* In a dark way, the moment when Victoria shoots Helen Crowley. The woman attempts to use the 'You wouldn't kill a human being' argument on her, but Victoria shoots her before she's even finished speaking. Double points for subverting a potentially long moment of false tension with no payoff and showing how far Victoria will go for her children.

*** To elaborate, she leaks to the press that Nolan will be giving an exclusive contract to a specific cellular company. Harmon hears this and tells his employees to invest everything in said company. Turns out, Nolan never intended to give the contract to that company. In fact, he was planning on handing it to their rivals. Harmon loses several billion dollars worth of investments and to put the icing the cake, Emily ruins his attempt to cover it up by personally calling ''every single one'' of his investors to inform them of the development.
