* Guest character Molly Connor marches into a meeting being hosted by the head of the CompanyTown and calls him out for possibly killing her father ten years ago in front of dozens of his employees (although this is negated somewhat by him having her arrested for trespassing).
* After Molly is arrested again for supposedly killing her adversary, the standoff outside the jail between her grandfather and his friends (who want to free her) and the victim's son and his employees (who think she's guilty and want to kill her) is a tense moment. [=YMMV=] whether Jessica's ShamingTheMob speech adds to or diminishes the power of the scene.
* Fourteen-year-old Travis saves Jessica from being killed by shooting out the tires of the killer as he is taking her somewhere to kill and bury her, then making the killer surrender with additional warning shots and (after a long pause) accepting that IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim and not shooting the man in cold blood.
