* Scott sneaks into a [[spoiler:rogue American unit]]'s secret hideout, finding a stockpile of guns and explosives. So what does he do? Blows up the bad guys, and when the survivors charge at him, he goes MoreDakka with a BFG.

* Coltrane walking into Arianna's house as casually and cheerfully as if he were a friend or neighbor dropping in for a visit and executing her with a BoomHeadshot, avenging Mac and Chetri.

* Coltrane being the first person in the show's entire history to lead S20 and ''survive''. Pretty remarkable considering not only the role, but that he was played by Creator/JamieBamber, who's notorious for being a ChronicallyKilledActor.

* Creator/JamieBamber is driving the boat during the chase sequence in the finale (he has a boat license and was pleased that the director and stunt coordinator allowed him to use his skills). He outright described the experience as "one of the best days of my life".

* Crawford in Project Dawn makes a huge splash in his short time. AffablyEvil, a ManOfWealthAndTaste, he successfully plays Section 20 along and nearly gets his daughter back himself. But when all else fails, he keeps up with Stonebridge providing excellent sniper support in getting his daughter out of Somalia alive

* The first episode of ''Project Dawn''. Scott and Stonebridge have been bickering all episode and nearly at each others throats. The second the hotel siege begins and they manage to arm up and regroup, they instantly slide into BashBrothers. They barely know each other and bicker, but they're top special operators and that teamwork is instant.
* Scott kills a gunman while naked. With a towel.
* Scott sneaks into a [[spoiler:rogue American unit]]'s secret hideout, finding a stockpile of guns and explosives. So what does he do? Blows up the bad guys, and when the survivors charge at him, he goes MoreDakka with a BFG.
** From that same episode: Stonebridge attempts a HeroicSacrifice and is MIA. Finally revealed to be heavily injured, dazed, and strapped down in an organ farm lab, he kills a bad guy sent to restrain him and manages to escape, all while bleeding profusely and barely able to stand.

** The best part: That scene was filmed for real with Phillip Winchester (Stonebridge) and Sullivan Stapelton (Scott). The two actors were actually hooked up to a line and lifted out by helicopter. NoStuntDouble!

* Shadow Warfare, Episode 10. Stonebridge and Scott are bound, with hoods over their heads, in the back of a van, being driven to be handed over to Ulyanov. They spot their guards and coordinate their attack in Morse code (and, humorously, manage to do a little bit of arguing in Morse). Then they counterattack, overpower their guards, and kill one of them by throwing him out the van onto the escort car.

Then [=McKenna=] manages to capture Locke - and it turns out that rescuing [=McKenna=] was just a distraction: the real goal was capturing Locke.

* Shadow Warfare, episode 9. Stonebridge and Scott raid a terrorist camp in a castle in Germany, and are surrounded and outnumbered. Then Locke, Richmond and Martinez arrive to extract them with a helicopter: Martinez provides suppressing fire with her rifle, Richmond is sniper support, and what does Locke do? He uses an M32 grenade launcher to rain explosive death on the terrorists. With no room to land, they drop a line to the boys, who hook up and keep on shooting as they're lifted out.
