* Spawns threat to the Clown for rubbing one out to a picture of Wanda. It doesn't really make sense, but holy shit does it does badass.

* Shortly afterwards, we have Spawn's utter wtfpwnage of Overkill and Tony Twist. After a brutal battle where Overkill solidly defeats Spawn (but not without getting a piece of rebar [[EyeScream right through his artificial eye]]), Overkill is being repaired... cue Spawn interrupting. Shortly after, Spawn pays Tony Twist, Overkill's boss, a visit and lets loose a bag full of Overkill's severed limbs and part of his face, followed by shooting Twist's goons in the legs and [[OhCrap making Twist shit himself.]]

* Season 1, Episode 6. Spawn gets one when he surfs on the antagonist's van, Clown gets one with this line:
-->'''Clown''': You assholes, that wasn't in the goddamn script!
* Clown gets another one when he reveals his true nature. Up until this point, he's been an obnoxious, trash-talking sidekick, but Spawn finally pushes him one step too far, and he announces "you don't know who you're dealin' with... but it's time you found out". Everyone who knew the comic book knew what was coming, and it didn't disappoint: he gruesomely changes into Violator, and ''everything'' about his mannerisms changes. Now he speaks telepathically in a much more formal, darker tone that's almost totally devoid of humor (starting with the ominous line "now begins your training"), while laying down not only Spawn's first defeat in a fight, but a CurbStompBattle at that. And the original HBO broadcast went one step further than the DVD's. Initially, his voice was a constantly shifting VoiceOfTheLegion with both male and female elements; it practically required closed captioning to make out, but it really, really made Violator feel completely non-human. They switched to a more hissing, decipherable voice in reruns and DVD's that lost a little bit of the effect, but either way, it was the perfect demonstration that Clown's really, really {{Not So Harmless|Villain}} after all.

** As if that's not awesome enough, we're also treated to Creator/KeithDavid giving one of the most badass threats ever put to television.
--->'''Spawn:''' As of now, you work for me. And your job is very simple. ''Give me my space.'' Understand? All I want is a little peace and quiet. Got it, fat boy?\\
'''Tony:''' Yes...\\
'''Spawn:''' ''Say it.''\\
'''Tony:''' I work for you... and you want your peace and quiet.\\
'''Spawn:''' And who am I?\\
'''Tony:''' I don't know!\\
