8	[[folder:Sector V as a Team]]
9	* The hijacking of the ice cream truck in "Operation: I.-S.C.R.E.A.M." It's the second chronological episode (which also doubles as the first aired episode for anyone keeping score) which really sets the stage for the show.
10	* Everyone in Sector V gets to shine in "Operation: E.N.D." Their memories of being Kids Next Door operatives have been erased, but the things that make them heroes can't be removed.
11	* "Operation: M.U.N.C.H.I.E.S."
12	** Four and One incapacitate ''[[BigBad Father]]'' with a barbecue and a {{BFG}} ''that shoots a mattress.''
13	** The team drag-races in a rocket-propelled shopping cart through a supermarket full of their own rogues gallery ''[[SeriousBusiness all for the last box of cereal.]]''
14	* In ''WesternAnimation/OperationZERO'', when they crashed the entire Moonbase down on Grandfather, JUST to get him into the decommissioning chamber so they could wipe his memory.
15	* The ''very end of the series'': At the end of "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S", it looks like Father restored Sector V's memories of the Kids Next Door and interviewed them for information he needed to get revenge on Numbuh 1. It appears they unwittingly told him exactly what he needs to know, too old and confused to wonder why he was questioning them and not even fully understanding what they were remembering or saying. Then Abby gets a phone call...
16	-->'''Abby:''' Hello. ... ''(smiling)'' Yeah. ... [[BatmanGambit We told him]] ''[[BatmanGambit everything]]'' [[BatmanGambit he wanted to hear]].
17	* In one episode, Sector V was given the honor of arranging an event to celebrate the KND organization's anniversary. Their idea? Turning the Grand Canyon into a giant cereal bowl.
18	* The scene in "Operation: G.R.O.W.U.P.", when the team decides to get the Delightful Children's age-changing AppliedPhlebotinum to turn Numbuh 1 back into a kid. Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment\|s}}.
19	-->'''Numbuh Five:''' Forget it! If "Mr. Uno" wants to act like a jerk for the rest of his life, Numbuh Five say, "Let him!"\
20	'''Numbuh Three:''' [[WhatTheHellHero Numbuh Five, how can you be so mean?!]] You call Numbuh One selfish, but you won't even help him!\
21	'''Numbuh Five:''' Numbuh Three!...\
22	''(beat)''\
23	'''Numbuh Five:''' Attacking the Delightful Children wouldn't be easy.\
24	'''Numbuh Three:''' We don't care.\
25	'''Numbuh Five:''' We don't even have any of our 2x4 technology weapons.\
26	'''Numbuh Two:''' We'll come up with something.\
27	'''Numbuh Five:''' We may be [[FateWorseThanDeath turned into adults]] ''ourselves''.\
28	'''Numbuh Four:''' No-one's a kid forever.\
29	'''Numbuh Five:''' All right, then -- Kids Next Door, ''Battle Stations!''
30	* In Operation: S.A.F.E.T.Y., Numbuhs 2 and 4 taking down a [[Characters/XMenSentinels Sentinel]] {{Expy}}. Two ''ten-year-old boys'' taking down a ''giant robot'' with high-tech hedge-trimmers! And not a scratch on them afterwards.
31	* Throughout "Operation: R.E.C.R.U.I.T." they spent the whole episode playing the Interesting Twins like a damn fiddle and tricking them into doing their mission for them while simultaneously foiling ''their'' plan. And pulling one StealthHiBye after another. And to top it all off, the entire episode is basically one long ShoutOut to ''Film/TheMatrix.''
32	* In "Operation G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S." when Father is chasing Tommy, Sector V in animal form attack him. They may be turned into animals but they are still KND operatives nonetheless. Even though Father quickly throws them off, their obstruction makes all the difference: they keep him from catching Tommy and buy him a few precious extra seconds to free the rest of the captive KND operatives-turned-animals.
33	[[/folder]]
34
35	[[folder:Numbuh One]]
36	* Resisting Chester's LotusEaterMachine in "Operation: U.T.O.P.I.A."
37	** To expand on that, Numbuh One crashes on an island, and within a few hours of being there, pieces together that the island is a fake through several minor details: The mind control headband and his rocket shoes are missing, neither he nor his bike have a scratch on them despite crashing, and Numbuh Four suddenly gaining the ability to swim. He tries to escape, but since the fantasy world is controlled by Chester, his efforts prove fruitless. But then he remembers he's still wearing his rocket shoes in the real world, and clicks his heels together to rocket out of the machine.
38	* Passing his SecretTestOfCharacter in "Operation: W.H.I.T.E.H.O.U.S.E.": "I'll never betray the Kids Next Door... even if I'm an adult!"
39	** Not to mention how he easily avoided the treehouse's security measures, even ''criticizing'' them.
40	--->(Dabbing some of the peanut butter from the giant bread crushers)\
41	“''Creamy'' peanut butter? Ugh! The security around here’s gone soft.”
42	** Seriously? No mention of his HulkOut near the end?
43	* Taking out ''all'' his teammates in "Operation: L.I.Z.Z.I.E." (even if he's {{Brainwashed}}).
44	* His FinalBattle with Chad in "Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y."
45	** The climax of this fight was perhaps the best part. Earlier on in the episode, there was a flashback that showed a fight between him and Chad when he was a recruit and Chad was still in the KND. That fight and this one ended exactly the same way, except with Chad losing this time, showing that Numbuh One really had surpassed him and really was the best KND operative on the planet.
46	--->'''Numbuh 1''': You were the best there was! \
47	'''Chad''': I! ''STILL''! '''''AM'''''! (''tries to punch Numbuh 1'') \
48	(''flash of white light'') \
49	'''Numbuh 1''': (''catches punch'') No. [[SurpassedTheTeacher You're not]].
50	* Taking out Stickybeard's entire armada with a single ship (and who knows how many bags of salt) at the start of ''WesternAnimation/OperationZERO''
51	** [[PreAssKickingOneLiner Also from Z.E.R.O.:]] "Next stop: ''way'' down the lane!"
52	* In "Operation: G.R.O.W.-U.P.", the adult Numbuh One blasts through a window of Father's mansion with his ice cream truck. What makes it even cooler is the music the truck makes foreshadowing the impact.
53	** Also, his method of getting the age-changing cigar back from the Delightful Children.
54	--->'''Numbuh One:''' Alright, hand over that device!\
55	'''Delightful Children:''' Why ''should'' we?!\
56	'''Numbuh One:''' Because I'm an adult, and goody-goody little children like you have to ''obey'' adults. So, gimme.\
57	'''Delightful Children:''' ''[beat]'' No fair!\
58	'''Numbuh One:''' Who said life was fair?
59	*** And remember, [[HoistByTheirOwnPetard the Delightful Children were the ones who changed Numbuh One into an adult in the first place]]!
60	** At the end of G.R.O.W.-U.P, he defeats Father with only a little help from his team. When Father blasts him into his ice-cream truck, One comes back out shooting soft-swirl to subdue the fiery villain for good.
61	-->'''Numbuh 1:''' I promised my team free ice cream, but I don't think they'll mind sharing!
62	* Being the first one to defeat [[WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy Mandy.]]
63	* Five Words. [[WesternAnimation/OperationZERO I AM/WE ARE KIDS NEXT DOOR]]
64	* A rather underrated one, but throughout Operation: I.T. he kept his cool the whole time and was able to snap Numbuh 362 out of her HeroicBSOD.
65	* In "Operation: E.N.D.", Numbuh 86 arrests Sector V and steals the Treehouse right in front of Numbuh One. She then makes a little speech about his mistake in underestimating her, where as she "doesn't make mistakes". Numbuh One then states, "You just did. [[PreAsskickingOneLiner You made me angry!]]" He then proceeds to disarm her team with his mail and escape while they recover from their paper cuts.
66	** Also, him working out and exposing Numbuh 274's true colours. Note that he's doing it all while breaking into the Moonbase, fighting off Numbuh 86's troops and directing his amnesiac team-mates [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and Tommy.]]
67	* "Operation C.A.K.E.D-F.O.U.R." Initially he was so vehemently against tube-a-thon, but when the delightful children said that the only way to get their cake was to win the race, he built himself a kick-ass tube overnight. He also managed to destroy their warship single handed. Kid's determined AF.
68	* Numbuh One eventually becomes a member of the Galactic KND. Granted, with the reveal of the G:KND back in March 2015, probably not so good considering they appear to be ScaryDogmaticAliens.
69	[[/folder]]
70
71	[[folder:Numbuh Two]]
72	* "Operation: P.O.P."
73	* "Operation: H.O.S.P.I.T.A.L."
74	-->'''Cree:''' [[TomatoSurprise A skunk?]]\
75	'''Hoagie:''' Not just ''any'' skunk! I've transformed Numbuh Six into a half-skunk, half-Kids Next Door operative, half-butt-kicking machine known as... ''R.O.B.O.B.R.A.D.L.E.Y.!''
76	* His FriendOrIdolDecision in "Operation: C.A.K.E.D.-F.O.U.R."
77	** A lot of what he does in this episode is awesome. His sheer determination, and his willingness to stick with his dad's old tube, even though he could build the best tube ever, are pretty great for him.
78	*** Hoagie P. Gilligan takes on Father ''single-handedly.'' All the children in town, including his teammates[[labelnote:*]]Except for Numbuh Four, who was stranded on an island at the time[[/labelnote]], are about to be [[ImAHumanitarian baked alive]] in a cake and the old tube he had so much faith in has burst and gone flat. Numbuh Two refuses to give in, says he believes in Betsy and his dad, kisses the tube -- and [[HeroicSecondWind it inflates back to life,]] activating several built-in shields just in time to block an oncoming fireball from Father which would have roasted him! The kid had unshakeable faith in his father and Ol' Betsy and it paid off!
79	* Any episode with him playing PrivateDetective (Except "Operation: C.R.I.M.E." And even then, he manages to guide Numbuh Three pretty well despite being incarcerated, picking up clues just by listening to her narrative, even when ''she'' didn't realise what was going on).
80	* The TransformingMecha battle in space where he avoided getting tagged by Numbuh 5 in Operation: I.T. (until she outsmarted him with a [[StealthPun high-five]]) was pretty impressive.
81	-->'''Numbuh 2:''' (''In bad Japanese accent'') [[YouFightLikeACow Your moves, grasshopper, are like elephants doing the mambo in tapioca.]]
82	* In "Operation: S.P.A.N.K.E.N.S.T.I.N.E." he silences [[HairTriggerTemper Mr. Sanban]] by grabbing him by the tie and saying one word.
83	-->'''Numbuh 2:''' [[TranquilFury Quiet.]]
84	[[/folder]]
85
86	[[folder:Numbuh Three]]
87	* In "R.A.I.N.B.O.W.S." Numbuh 3 has been tricked into leading Mr. Mogul to real rainbow monkeys, and he locks them all up in cages. She figures out how to turn on the propeller function on the flying rainbow monkey toy used to abduct her, and Kuki uses that to cut the bars on all the cages. She then lets her new friends rampage on Mr. Mogul and his lackies, takes control of their airship and dumps the adults into the ocean on a life raft.
88	-->'''Mr. Mogul:''' I don't know how you got out of your cage, but you're going back in, permanently.\
89	'''Numbuh 3:''' ''(Smiling cheerfully)'' Oh, I don't think my friends will like that. ''(Rainbow monkeys appear)''
90	* Saving Numbuh Four from the Crazy Old Cat Lady.
91	* The AffectionateParody episode of ''Aliens'', where she sacrifices herself with a nacho cheese grenade.
92	* Any time she goes into [[UnstoppableRage demon mode]]. She's got more than her share of BewareTheNiceOnes.
93	* In "Operation: F.A.S.T.-F.O.O.D." she goes through Chester's kid-burger machine without getting dazed and then beats the man with his own spatula, [[AnAesop all because she had the good sense to wear a helmet]] to her dangerous mission.
94	* H.I.P.P.I.E.-H.O.P. shines in "Operation: F.U.T.U.R.E." That robot was just too girly for the enemy rays.
95	* A lesser talked about moment, but still awesome moment for H.I.P.P.I.E.-H.O.P is in Operation: I.T, where Kuki uses the mecha to chase after Numbuh 65.3, crashing through the street all the way. Bonus points for 65.3 looking legitimately terrified of H.I.P.P.I.E.-H.O.P, on top of managing to successfully tag him.
96	-->'''Numbuh 3:''' I'm it! I'm it, ooooh, Hippy-Hop and I are it, '''BUT NOT FOR LONG, HERBIE!'''
97	* How about the time she ''fiercely'' protected Numbuh Four's present from the Elfa Strike in "Operation: N.A.U.G.H.T.Y."? I mean, '''DANG!!!''' And this is ''after'' they wiped the floor with the rest of Sector V.
98	* Her utter CurbStompBattle to Mr. Boss in "Operation: M.A.C.A.R.O.N.I.".
99	** And the fact that just her ''scream'' was enough to send him and his troops running.
100	-->'''Mr. Boss: QUICK! RUN LIKE LITTLE GIRLS!'''
101	* In "''Operation: H.O.L.I.D.A.Y.''", when she sees Numbuh 2 unconscious at the controls of the plane, she takes the controls and displays an uncharacteristic level of competence piloting the plane. Sure, she's immediately knocked out by the same pie seconds later, but it was still impressive.
102	* A small one but in Operation H.O.S.P.I.T.A.L., her rage is enough that she can easily shove several adults out of her way.
103	* In "''Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S''", it's revealed that after years of being the Rainbow Monkeys franchise's biggest fan, [[AscendedFangirl Kuki grew up to be the CEO of the entire Rainbow Monkey corporation]]!
104	[[/folder]]
105
106	[[folder:Numbuh Four]]
107	* "Operation: B.E.A.C.H." Period.
108	-->'''Wally: [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend SHE JUST OWES ME A QUARTER!]]'''
109	* The dodgeball scene in "Operation: F.O.U.N.T.A.I.N."
110	-->'''Numbuh 5:''' "Give the kid a couple of dodgeballs and suddenly he's a hero."
111	* Defeating the 4 {{Evil Twin}}s from the MirrorUniverse and then confronting his own Negative self.
112	-->'''Negative Numbuh 4''': I must be a [[EvilGenius genius]], because [[DumbMuscle you're]] an idiot to come here! You're completely surrounded by my troops!\
113	'''Numbuh 4''': [[ArmorPiercingResponse Well, if you're]] ''[[ArmorPiercingResponse my]]'' [[ArmorPiercingResponse opposite, then that makes]] ''[[ArmorPiercingResponse you]]'' [[ArmorPiercingResponse a COWARD!]]
114	** Which he must have realized by just having confronted his fear of water caused by being unable to swim. Don't let it be said that Wally is as dumb as he seems. It's more of a wild card intelligence he has than anything.
115	** Not to mention him beating up the entire negative sector V at once, and socking the Negative Numbuh Three in the face.
116	-->'''Negative Numbuh 1:''' Y-you can't talk back t-to Negative Numbuh 3 like that. I'm warning yo-
117	-->'''Numbuh 4:''' Well what are ya waiting for, princess!? (''Camera narrows on his eyes'') [[PreAssKickingOneLiner Let's DANCE!]]
118	* "Operation: T.R.I.C.K.Y.": "Brick or treat, Captain Cavity!"
119	* Beating up Numbuh 274, widely considered the best combat operative in KND history, in "Operation: E.N.D."
120	-->'''Numbuh Four:''' Don't ever call me a SQUIRT!
121	* For all the cracks about his [[BookDumb stupidity]] throughout the series, "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S." reveals that he graduated with top marks from ''Harvard''. Becoming a ''doctor'', no less.
122	* "Operation: F.U.T.U.R.E."
123	** His main CMOA in the whole series. To elaborate, he is sent to a boarding school, which is apparently all-girls. 4 is informed that he would be transformed into a girl, and promptly escapes. He then disappears from the world for 75 years, after having his hand girl-ified, the majority of the human race turned into girls (or becoming girlier) and leads a new group of KND members known as the Boys Next Door. After becoming a {{Badbutt}} grandpa and meeting Numbuh 3's granddaughter, Future 4 leads the BND (having been reformed into the KND) into a battle against the girls and manages to help his younger self [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong restore the timeline]] ([[PyrrhicVictory at the cost of having his army turned into girls]]).[[labelnote:Note]]Though he began to [[RetGone disappear]] once history was changed, presumably along with Queen Margaret and her army of future girls, including the new converts.[[/labelnote]]
124	* Let's face it: the kid's a freaking [[OneManArmy one kid army.]] He manages to take on his negative dimension teammates, the best hand-to-hand fighters in the series and, as detailed above, a CrapsackWorld populated only by girls (as the last surviving male, with all his allies [[GenderBender converted into females.]]) and ''win''.
125	* In "Operation: M.O.V.I.E." he defeated single-handedly '''several''' villains, including Mr. Boss and Stickybeard.
126	** And his main weapon? ''[[MundaneMadeAwesome Chewy Pellets]]''. What was once a last request for candy became his ''ultimate weapon''.
127	* It's often overlooked, but he really shines in ''Operation D.O.G.H.O.U.S.E.'': he is able to outsmart twice the villain by making use of Numbuh Five's AchillesHeel, and smart enough to put a tracker in [[ItMakesSenseInContext his backpack]], as well as taking down the mooks as if they aren't [[CurbStompBattle even there]]. To combine this with a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment\|s}}, he is extremely quick to get over his fear of what he thinks is a haunted doghouse to help Numbuh Five.
128	* Oh, he's also responsible for taking out Chad during his first three villain appearances, the first one being when he's wrongly decommissioned.
129	* One in Operation O.F.F.I.C.E when he proves that while he's not BookSmart, he's definitely not stupid. When Wally orders the employee's daughters to evacuate, none of them listen. Wally thinks for a minute and then gets everybody's attention by jumping on a table and saying loudly, "I've got a secret!" He then tells the girls there are some Rainbow Monkey video games down an air vent, which gets them all to jump down it and out of the room, no trouble.
130	[[/folder]]
131
132	[[folder:Numbuh Five]]
133	* "Five uninvited guests coming right up!"
134	* Her first fight against Cree.
135	-->'''Cree:''' You know I was the best fighter in the Kids Next Door!\
136	'''Numbuh Five:''' That's right... you ''were'' the best!
137	* Pretty much the entirety of "Operation: J.E.W.E.L.S." An Indiana Jones-esque adventure as she travels across the globe to retrieve a precious jewel/candy stolen from her, that culminates in facing a huge candy-powered mummy.
138	* "Operation: C.H.O.C.O.L.A.T.E." where Heinrich Von Marzipan returns from falling into chocolate in Operation R.A.B.B.I.T. as a mutant made of chocolate, that can turn anything he touches into more chocolate. How does Numbuh 5 defeat an enemy that's nigh unstoppable and can chase her, even into space? By taking that chase near the sun!
139	* "Operation: L.I.C.O.R.I.C.E." sees Numbuh 5 face off against Black John Licorice in a sugar drinking contest to save Heinrich from becoming consumed by a licorice seed. While she isn't able to drink John under the table to win, she isn't there to win. She manages to stall John and his pirates long enough for Stickybeard's crew to get the seed out of Heinrich. And long enough for the sun to rise and turn John and his crew back into inanimate piles of licorice.
140	* How she managed to not become a spank-happy vampire and defeat them by stalling them long enough for the day to come and open the windows of the treehouse. This scores points for managing to become a FinalGirl.
141	-->'''Numbuh Five:''' NOT TONIGHT!
142	-->'''Numbuh One:''' Wha? Why not?
143	-->'''Numbuh Five:''' Because ''[[PreasskickingOneLiner tonight]]'' [[PreasskickingOneLiner is]] '''[[PreasskickingOneLiner over]]'''!
144	** And after this, Numbuh Five somehow managed to track down Count Spankulot in the prison is being held, and help cure the Spank-Happy Army of his spell by disguising as a club of prisoners, before revealing themselves to the vampire and have her turned-vampire friends spank him, changing them back
145	-->'''Numbuh Five:''' (in a disguised voice) Hold it Count! You just broke (reveals herself) ''the rules'' baby!
146	** Doubles as heartwarming when you think about it. Even after defeating the Spank-Happy Army after they attempted to turn her, she knew they were still her friends (via under a curse) and somehow managed to convince them to help her change them back.
147	* Her HeroicSacrifice in ''WesternAnimation/OperationZERO''
148	* Face it, any solo episode starring her is AWESOME.
149	** One of her crowning solo episodes has to be "Operation: M.A.U.R.I.C.E.", where she takes out ''an entire fleet of sea ships'', using ''explosive mustard marbles. While contaminated with the chicken pox.''
150	[[/folder]]
151
152	[[folder:Others]]
153	* Numbuh 362 at the end of "Operation: I.T." when she eats her way through a wall of broccoli (which is this show's equivalent to kryptonite) and physically forces Father at broccoli-point to tag her as Supreme Leader again.
154	** And the epic GunFu she and Numbuh 1 used fighting their way through a maze of Father clones.
155	** And they do ''that'' after the Delightful Children gave them the Code Module. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Even they can't live in a world with broccoli.]]
156	** During the game of tag itself, we get one for [[MellowFellow Numbuh 1-Love]]. A fellow operative tries to sneak up on him while he's lounging on the beach listening to music. 1-Love's response? [[TranquilFury Calmly]] whipping out a weapon [[OffhandBackhand without even turning around or removing his headphones]] and saying [[BewareTheNiceOnes "Don't even try it, mon."]]
157	* In "Operation: F.O.O.D.F.I.T.E.", Grandma Stuffem goes from goofy recurring villain to downright legendary when she spends most of the episode kicking Sector V's collective asses and singing GWAR songs. Did you notice that the music in that episode was performed by GWAR? Stuffum was doing vocals for the [[{{Music/GWAR}} real deal]].
158	** Also a [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic CMOA]] for Creator/GreyDeLisle, even if it's not her most appealing voice.
159	** Sector V themselves also put up one hell of a fight. Especially right before Stuffum summons the Slamwich where they all zip across the screen lightning-fast, delivering punches and kicks. But the kicker is when they call up Joaquin the giant hamster to eat the Slamwich monster. And Joaquin WINS.
160	* Any time one of Father's or Cree's {{Evil Plan}}s is revealed.
161	* Cree Lincoln's epic UnstoppableRage in "Operation: V.I.R.U.S."
162	-->'''Cree:''' You better hand her [Abby] over NOW, before I turn this stupid treehouse upside down!\
163	'''Numbuh One''': [[TemptingFate Go ahead and try it!]]\
164	''([[GilliganCut cut to upside-down treehouse]])''\
165	'''Numbuh One:''' ''(Dazed)'' [[NotHyperbole Wow, I didn't think you could do it]].
166	* Sector Z's last words before their re-delightfulization.
167	--->"Tell the Kids Next Door we miss them!"
168	** Also, "This is going to be... ''delightful''."
169	** Heck, just Sector Z in general is '''made''' of this trope! With how much butt they kick, it isn't ''too,'' too surprising at the [[EnsembleDarkhorse huge fanbase]] they have!
170	*** Their Negative-Universe counterparts from "Operation: P.O.O.L." are no less badass, especially when you bear in mind they don't have access to the kind of technology and weaponry their Positive-Universe selves have.
171	* Numbuh Zero is made of win. He's implied to have done many if not most of the same things the other operatives have done. Who could forget the line at the opening of ''WesternAnimation/OperationZERO''? Grandfather is counting down to incinerate Numbuh Zero, and when he reaches zero, Numbuh Zero says it for him and hits him with a decommissioning ray.
172	* Numbuh 362 in ''WesternAnimation/OperationZERO'' has one of these. The fact that she was able to hold back the changing from the Senior Citizombies for a full minute while everyone else was changed on contact was impressive. Compare it to how Numbuh Zero had the same resistance, and that was WITH the Book of KND in his back pocket. RankScalesWithAsskicking, my friends.
173	** [[PreAssKickingOneLiner "I'm going to throw Numbuh 60 a retirement party."]]
174	** Numbuh Two also held back the transformation for a while. It just proves that everyone on this show has their own SugarWiki/MomentofAwesome.
175	* Numbuh 274 in his debut has him damaging Mega Mom and Destructo Dad, who are revealed to be his own parents, by canceling all of his extracurricular activities by cellphone.
176	* [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling Tommy Gilligan]] single-handedly defeating Father and The Delightful Children in "Operation: G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S." Even if it backfires in "Operation: I.T.".
177	** And the animalified Sector V's BigDamnHeroes moment. Doubles as SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming\|Moments}}.
178	** His defeating Father in G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S. deserves better mention, as he does the one thing that allows him to avoid being animalified by Father's master plan: He does the simplest thing in the world, that being quit the KND. All his hard work to get in, and he quits without a second thought to save the KND, and then in the fight against Father, proceeds to [[HoistByHisOwnPetard hoist him by his own petard.]]
179	* Joey Beatles battle against the Dodgeball Wizard.
180	* Lizzie of all people gets several;
181	** In "Operation: P.O.O.L" when negative Numbuh 1 charges them in an attempt to prevent she and Nigel from escaping with the LTDFCD, she hits him with the flat of the lobotomy/torture device her counterpart was just threatening them with. It's enough to knock out one if his teeth and impresses Nigel enough that he [[TheGlomp glomps]] her.
182	** When Negative Numbuh Four comes into the positive world, he makes it to the edge of the pool, ready to conquer... and then he sees her negative counterpart, [[HeelFaceTurn turned to the positive KND's side]]. Cue asskicking.
183	--->'''Eizzil:''' Get ''out'' of my friend's world!
184	** In "Operation: C.A.K.E.D.-T.WO." with the team down and the Delightful Children bragging to Numbuh One, he sees something in the sky and lets the Delightful Children know that they've forgotten one thing: "My crazy girlfriend!" Cue Lizzie single-handedly saving the entire team, getting Numbuh One to forgive her, AND ruining the Delightful Children's birthday by dive bombing the cake monster at the end of the episode.
185	** "Operation G.I.R.L.F.R.I.E.N.D." shows us her method for defeating the grew-to-life treehouse, doubling as a TearJerker. Throughout the episode, and almost the entire show, she had to endure all of Nigel's rebuffing of her constant affections for the sake of the Kids Next Door. In one sequence, she unleashes '''everything about Nigel that she hated'''. And gets the giant treehouse to self-destruct! Even with the eventual breakup after everything is done, it would be a surprise of Lizzie ''was'' a member of the Kids Next Door. At least, to our knowledge...
186	** A smaller example, but "Operation D.A.T.E." has her ''accidentally'' pulling a DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu moment.
187	--->'''Lizzie:''' ''[entering just as the Delightful Children are about to brainwash Nigel]'' NIGEL UNO! I'd like a ''word'' with you!\
188	'''The Delightful Children:''' What is the meaning of th-\
189	'''Lizzie:''' '''[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]'''
190	* [[BadAssBoast "Where Moosk goes, ties get the butt kicking!!]]
191	** Vin Moosk as a whole is pretty awesome, to the point he's the only adult besides Numbuh Zero that Nigel respects. At the climax of "Operation: K.N.O.T.", he does an HeroicSacrifice that stops the Queen Tie for good even if it means he'll become a dull accountant again... until Nigel, in a mailman disguise, gives Moosk a can of spray starch to get rid of the tie; at the end of the episode, we all know HesBack!
192	*** Further props must be given to the performance of Creator/{{Jim Cummings\|1952}}.
193	** There were a number of cool adults in the series: Lasso Lass, Dr. Sigmund Teeth and his defeating Knightbrace, Hoagie's mom defeating the Common Cold in her first appearance, etc.
194	* "Operation: T.R.A.I.N.I.N.G.": Tommy and his new friends Lee and Sonia defeat Father while everyone else in the Arctic Sector got sent away. Note, that they were supposed to be on Level 3 of a ''simulation'', and they beat them by using their smarts.
195	** Props goes for Sonia. A sweet, little girl who looks like she shouldn't even ''be'' in training as an agent, [[BadassAdorable beats up two of Father's henchmen]] just for the two threatening them to put the children in a broom closet. Her response after the asskicking?
196	--->'''Sonia''': ''[smiling cutely]'' What? I don't like the dark.
197	* Despite the controversy surrounding the episode, "Operation: C.A.R.A.M.E.L." counts to some. It ''is'' pretty awesome to consider that there is apparently a female-kid-Franchise/IndianaJones {{Expy}} flying around the world!
198	* A minor one, but in Operation: W.H.I.T.E.H.O.U.S.E.: while Nigel's BathroomBreakOut works ''twice'' on the Secret Service, the KND aren't fooled one second, because "we're the Kids Next Door. We ''invented'' that trick".
199	* The Delightful Children get one in the first season finale, Operation: G.R.O.W.U.P. After spending pretty much the whole season as [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Ineffectual Sympathetic Villains]], they use the "[[HumongousMecha Really Really Incredibly Destructive Machine]]" and utterly [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomp]] the Kids Next Door.
200	** In the same episode, [[BigBad Father]] makes his first appearance, and it's a doozy of an introduction. Is it any wonder why he's considered such a threat to the KND and G:KND?
201	--> '''Father''': ''[giving a {{Sarcastic Clap\|ping}} after the older Numbuh 1 beats the Delightfuls]'' Bravo, Mr. Uno... [[SarcasmMode you skillfully managed to outwit]] a bunch of ''children.'' The question is: do you have what it takes... [[SuddenlyShouting TO PLAY WITH THE BIG BOYS?!]]
202	* [[EnemyMine Sector V teaming up with Father, Stickybeard, Count Spankula and nearly every villain that had appeared on the show]] to get the last box of Rainbow Munchies at Villain Mart that Knight Brace bought [[JerkAss just so he could destroy it]]. They proceed to beat the crap out of Knight Brace, then splits the box so everyone gets at least one bowl for breakfast. Its also oddly endearing to see Sector V share something with the adults, who usually hate everything child-friendly.
203	-->'''Numbuh 1''': Desperate times call for desperate measures. ''[holds out hand]'' Truce?\
204	'''Father''': ''[shaking it]'' Until breakfast is finished.\
205	'''Numbuh 1''': Agreed.
206	* No mention of The Kid? He's easily the best pilot in the entire show, managing to out-fly Numbuh Two multiple times. Hoagie cycles through every ship seen on the show to that point, and The Kid beats each and every one. It isn't until Hoagie disables his forcefield that it's a fair fight.
207	* Regardless of your thoughts on the recent teaser being more or less an April Fool's Day prank, you have to admire both the effort the creators put into it ''and'' the social media hype surrounding it. [[FridgeBrilliance If you think about it]], isn't it a modern version of how KND first got its series?
208	** Especially awesome because it's not really an April Fools day prank, at least not in the usual sense. The creators really do want the spin-off to become a reality, have the full intentions of making it happen if they can get the network to say yes, and are still hoping that fan support will make it happen.
209	* Numbuh 2's mother gets a moment at the end of "Operation: T.O.M.M.Y." when she uses chicken soup to defeat the Flu Bug Machine. Specifically, from ''a giant cannon''.
210	* Numbuh 362 making her introduction to the show at the end of "Operation F.U.G.I.T.I.V.E." by giving Numbuh 86 a ''very'' well deserved [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech calling out]]. What makes it extra awesome is not only did Numbuh 86 previously praise how Numbuh 362 would never put up with the supposed stupidity of Sector V's boys, but Numbuh 86, who had spent the whole episode acting smug and haughty, is cowering in fear.
211	--> '''Numbuh 362''': You ''IDIOT''! I was ''this close'' to getting the Delightful Children's plans, and ''you'' attacked me from out of nowhere! Whose side are you on anyways?! I'm ashamed to call you a girl. [[IronicEcho I never thought a girl would be so stupid. You are by far the most idiotic person I have]] ''[[IronicEcho ever, ever worked with!]]''
