History Awesome / Revenge2011

* Charlotte, of all people, gets one later in the same episode when she punches Regina at the masquerade party for badmouthing Amanda.

* [[KickTheSonOfABitch Aiden's murder of Trask]], avenging [[spoiler: his sister, Padma and her father.]]

* "Masquerade" has one for Charlotte, of all people, when she punches Regina at the masquerade party for badmouthing Amanda.

* Any and all interactions between Emily and Mason in Penance. For both of them.

* Amanda and Emily's last stand on the ''Amanda'' against Nate. [[spoiler: Too bad it turns out to be a DyingMomentOfAwesome for Amanda.]]

* Victoria emotionally destroying her mother to get her own revenge.

** Nolan also has a surprisingly badass moment in this episode when he warns Aiden that [[IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer if he double crosses Emily, Nolan will make him pay]].

* Any and all interactions between Emily and Mason in Penance. For both of them.

* Emily finally tops herself 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.

* 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 improvising to frame Lee for Tyler's murder - in doing so, she gets Daniel out of jail without implicating Jack.

* Mason Treadwell's {{Heel Face Turn}}, destroying the Graysons' defense plan for Daniel and then telling Victoria he's perfectly willing to reveal their framing of David Clarke and go down with them. "It's a small price to pay for restoring my soul."

* Mason Treadwell's {{Heel Face Turn}}, destroying the Graysons' defense plan for Daniel and then telling Victoria he's perfectly willing to reveal their framing of John Clarke and go down with them. "It's a small price to pay for restoring my soul."

* When Tyler is being arrested for attacking Daniel's birthday party, it's revealed that Emily took advantage of the situation to frame him for Frank's murder as well. Now, bear in mind that when Tyler showed up, Emily thought he had left town for California, and yet she still managed to put together a plan to put him away for a long time on the fly. I think it's safe to say at this point that Emily is a master of XanatosSpeedChess.

* When Grandpa Grayson verbally eviscrates Conrad on his failure of a Father.

* The real Emily (who Amanda switched identities with) takes Frank down with a tire iron, just as he's about to reveal Amanda to Victoria.

--> '''Victoria:''' "Well it certainly appears that way, doesn't it? Then again, appearances can be deceiving, can't they. You've practically made it an art form. Understand something, Lydia: every time I smile at you across a room, or we run into each other at a luncheon, or I welcome you into my home, let that smile be a reminder of just how much I despise you. And that every time I hug you, that warmth you feel is my hatred burning through."

* Emily's comprehensive takedown of Lydia, not only destroying her friendships and getting her banished from the neighborhood, but making sure she gets nothing in her divorce, when she and her husband were equally unfaithful. Plus, she set the husband up with the woman he cheated with.

* Ruining the political career of a senator who who years ago prosecuted her father and refused to admit evidence that would prove his innocence in order to win the trial.
* Paying back one psychological torment with another, when she kidnaps the psychiatrist who pressured her into believing the lies about her father and then anonymously calls the police, leaving the doctor to spend the rest of her life wondering who it was and if they'll ever come back.
** Plus, destroying her business by stealing the tapes of her sessions and putting them online, including her own sessions so no one will suspect her.

* Victoria smiling to Lydia and hugging her as she delivers a brutal verbal takedown, letting her know how much she hates her. Lydia is absolutely stunned.
