** From the same episode, Didi sees Tommy about to pick the lock on a tiger cage, and channels Tarzan to pull him out of danger.

to:

** From The babies spend the same episode, Didi sees whole episode trying to free the "kitties"--that is, massive Siberian tigers--from a Siegfried & Roy-esque act. When they're in the theater and getting dangerously close to the cage, Didi, Betty, and Charlotte show why MamaBear is a trope by barreling down the bouncer at the door and rushing to the rescue. Extra awesome points go to Didi, who, seeing Tommy about to pick the lock on a tiger the tigers' cage, grabs a rope and channels Tarzan to pull him save him.
** Lou gets to take part in the rescue mission, too. First, he gives up some of his casino winnings--which he spent hours earning--to pay for tickets so he and the babies' dads can get into the show. Then, when the magicians start chasing down the babies (and seem ready to hurt them despite the fact that, you know, they're ''babies''), Lou [[ImprovisedWeaponUser hurls his remaining bags of nickels at them]] with blinding accuracy, knocking them
out of danger.with a laugh ("Easy come, easy go!").

** She pulls an impressive IndyPloy against Timmy in "A Very Mc Nulty Birthday". When he throws her and the other girls out of his party for having "cooties", they don monster make-up to scare them. When this and the babies' oblivious antics lead Timmy to think cooties infect kids into monsters and throws Chuckie out after he gains cooties (in fact paint), Angelica then capitalises and convinces Chuckie and the other girls to infect everyone else, leaving only Timmy left, who has to beg Angelica to join the relocated party.

** An earlier awesome moment from the same episode (titled "Little Dude.") The whole reason Tommy was at Didi's school was so she could teach her home ec students to diaper babies. Yet none of her students want to try. Rocko, the said JerkWithAHeartOfGold, walks in late and changes the diaper without flinching (Note: Tommy was carrying a full load). When Didi thanks Rocko, he casually explains he's used to this kind of thing because his little brother is Tommy's age. [[CoolBigSis Cool Big Bro]] indeed.
