4* Mackenzie Calhoun is a walking one of these, but several actual moments stand out:
5** Mac led a successful revolt against the alien Danteri before he was twenty years old and drove them off his home planet.
6** His take on the ''Kobayashi Maru'' scenario. He blows it up, calmly explains his decision and gets lauded for it. Shelby is raked over the coals for her immaturity.
7** His response to getting bullied at the Star Fleet Academy? Fight everyone. And its awesome.
8** Punching out Si Cwan when he first gets on the ''USS Excalibur''. Then getting Shelby to retract her own argument regarding loyalties. Also a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}.
9** His reappearance at the end of ''Excalibur: Restoration'' where he attends his own funeral that is simultaneously the launch of the new ''Excalibur.'' He even quotes ''Literature/TomSawyer'' as an inspiration for doing so.
10* Shelby has many of these as well.
11** Shelby telling Admiral Jellico where to shove it when he attempts to get her to spy on Mac.
12** eventually ascends to the rank of Captain of the starship ''Exeter''. It is a long awaited heartwarming moment as well due to the fact she has been angling for command since we first saw her on ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration.''
13** Shelby single-handedly not only discovers a plague devastating an alien race is due to an enemy species but prevents a war between the two species, forcing the guilty party to sacrifice the Science Council that was behind the plot.
14* Burgoyne 172 fighting for hir and Selar's child on Vulcan. Doubles as heartwarming to boot.
