** During the climax, Gaz manages to break free of the BigBad's MindControlDevice, and proceeds to unleash such a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on him that Iggins is left catatonic, and has to be institutionalized. This really should be a MoralEventHorizon... but after everything he put her and her loved ones through in the story, it was so very [[KickTheSonOfABitch satisfying]] to read.

** The ''entire'' FinalBattle. All of it. From the moment the Swollen Eyeballs turn on Dib and Tak, to the moment Gaz's SuperpowerMeltdown finishes them off. It is one of the best fight scenes this troper's ever read.

** At one point, [[spoiler: Iggins]] attempts to confront Zim in an empty auditorium, by carrying out the cliche of revealing himself when Zim enters the darkened room and turns on the lights. However, Zim has excellent night vision, easily spots [[spoiler: Iggins]], and sneaks up on him in order to blindside him.
*** At the same time this is happening, Gaz is fighting an assassin sent by [[spoiler: Iggins]], who actually manages to hold her own against her. At least until Gaz realizes Zim is in danger, at which point she finishes the fight quickly.

How To Write An Example - Do Not Pothole the Trope Name


** During the battle of Washington, Zim and Gaz put up a great fake fight in order to boost [[VillainWithGoodPublicity Gaz's public image]]. But what's really impressive is that while this is going on, [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Dib is fighting GIR]], who's in a HumongousMecha, and somehow tricks him into triggering the mech's SelfDestructMechanism. The resulting explosion consumes our protagonists, only for Zim to protect them with a forcefield, and the two even have time for BigDamnKiss in the process. It's one of those things you have to read yourself to get the full effect of.
