1	* After being an ass for most of the movie, Joanna hits Walter with a poker and demands to know where her children went.
2	* Joanna's photos being finally positively appraised are this and a HopeSpot.
3	* Joanna has suspicions about Bobbie being changed. Driven to desperation, Joanna tests it to prove her suspicions beyond all reasonable doubt in the only way she can think of: she stabs her friend in the stomach.
4	-->'''Joanna:''' ''(with a kitchen knife in hand)'' Look, I bleed. When I cut myself, I bleed. Do you bleed?\
5	'''Bobbie:''' Why, look at your hand.\
6	'''Joanna:''' No, ''you'' look.
7	* In ''The Stepford Children'', Laura manages to survive the whole film and escape with her children, and after fighting her daughter's robotic double, who had a knife!
8	** Her son, David, even [[BigDamnHeroes bursts in with his motorcycle]] to save his mom and sister.
9	* In the remake, after a resentful marriage: Walter and Joanna manage to work out an alternative to Joanna becoming a robot. Joanna merely gets a makeover and plays the part of a Stepford Wife smoothly and perfectly, Walter disables the microchips for each wife, Joanna flirts and flatters Mike and then nails him with a large candlestick when he was about to attack Walter.
10	* Likely, the reason that Walter and Joanna agreed for him to become a FakeDefector is that if they left, it'd be too easy for the Wives and evidence to be disposed of and could go for plausible deniability, even if Walter got Joanna out of there. They decided to get the proof, save everyone, and ensure this could never happen to anyone else.
11	* Also in the remake: when the nanochips in the Wives' brains short out, the women square off against their husbands, who are haplessly pressing their now-useless remotes, when one wife yanks one and [[WaifFu STARTS CRUSHING IT WITH HER OWN TWO HANDS]].
12	** In a deleted scene, one cyborg wife is seen holding up her husband by the neck with her hand stretched out, she turns to the protesting Mike and asks the kingpin, "You want some?"
13	** And, of course, the women force-feeding their husbands ATasteOfTheirOwnMedicine.
14	* Walter's short but sweet TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to the men on why he couldn't turn his wife into a mindless slave.
15	-->'''Walter:''' Because she's not a science project. Because I didn't marry something from Radio Shack.\
16	'''Mike:''' That's a shame.\
