** What makes this scene even more epic is the fact that Reed already won from the moment Reeva used her debilitating scream. That ability already began to destabilize Reed's [[MakeThemRot disintegrating abilities]], sending him to the ground. Combined with the fact that she walked closer to him, all he could have done was crouch there and wait for his powers to fully activate. But instead, he found every last bit of strength to stand up and look her in the eye to deliver his PreMortemOneLiner, [[OhCrap leaving Reeva in shock]].

* Otto Strucker showing exactly why [[spoiler:the mutants from the Strucker line]] are so dangerous, when [[spoiler:he overcomes Pulse's PowerNullifier abilities by brute force alone ''even after being shot twice in the chest''.]]

** Lorna [[spoiler: brings down the plane carrying [[AssholeVictim Dr. Campbell and Senator Mondez]]]].
** Andy and Lauren [[spoiler: using their combined Fenris power to destroy Mutant Underground HQ in order to cover everyone's escape, in the process wiping out all the Hounds.]]

* Marcos's ShutUpHannibal and threat to one of the Frost sisters when he, John, and Clarice [[spoiler:find out they have convinced Lorna to assasinate Campbell and Senator Mondez before they make it to DC]] - his rage actually seems to frighten her.

* Lorna giving birth to her [[spoiler: daughter]]. At first Lorna doesn’t think she can survive the birth but then Frost sisters show her a future where Mutants are free and safe and her child living in that utopia. It gives Lorna all the strength she needs to pull through.

* Reed's HeroicSacrifice in order to kill Reeva. Taking advantage of his unstable powers and turning himself into a human bomb taking out not only Reeva but her {{Mooks}} in the building as well.

* While it’s an OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Marcos managing to take down Max and seemingly kill him.

* Andy and Lorna teaming up with the rest of the Mutant Underground to save John from Purifiers. The rescue goes a smooth as possible as the Mutants outright decimate the hate group.

* John goes OneManArmy on Jace and The Purifiers to allow Marcos, Lorna, Reed, and Caitlin a chance to escape and save Andy and Lauren from the Frost.

* Reed’s HeroicSacrifice in order to kill Reeva. Taking advantage of his unstable powers and turning himself into a human bomb taking out not only Reeva but her Mooks in the building as well.

** With help from Erg, John manages to defeat Jace and give the guy a ''well deserved'' beat down before stopping himself from killing him.

* Also, while it's a tearjerker, there's the Morlocks' LastStand against the Purifiers as they try to buy time so that the noncombatants can escape to safety.

* While it’s an OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Marcos managing to take down Max and seemingly kill him.

* Lauren has a rematch with Andy during their mental mind share and almost effortlessly beats him. Andy ends up waking up with a bloody nose as a result.

* A minor one-episode Mutant finally does what we've all been hoping for and completely tears down the veneer of allegory regarding the persecution of Mutants, as when Turner asks why he ran if he's innocent, he simply replies "My granddaddy didn't need a reason to run from the Klan, and neither did yours."

* Andy and Lorna teaming up with the rest of the Mutant Underground to save John from Purifiers. The rescue goes a smooth as possible as the Mutants outright decimate the hate group.

* Reed jumping out of a van to let an innocent mutant mother and daughter get to the Underground and lose Turner's Sentinel Services team. Also counts as a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming. What makes it better is Reed's retort to Turner about botching their deal.

* Andy and Polaris combining their powers to destroy the power generators for the mutant inhibitor collars. Not for one site but ''all'' of them. Cut to various prisons and camps across the country where the mutants realize their powers are back and are soon staging mass riots and escapes.
