** Especially epic is the montage near the beginning of the episode, set to "[[Music/JohnnyCash The Man Comes Around]]".

* Red finally meeting [[spoiler: the mole Diane Fowler]] and eliminating her with a well placed bullet as the final loose end to the operation against him.

* Reddington proving that he has NervesOfSteel when the attack against the Post Office begins. When Ressler goes down, he calmly searches for the key to his restraints, snatches up Ressler's Glock and a shotgun and performs a successful tactical retreat with the wounded Agent to the Post Office holding cell, efficiently distracting and eliminating several of the mercenaries bearing down on them with a combination of gunfire and a perfectly timed flashbang grenade. Later, Red has fun casually mocking an incredibly unstable Anslo Garrick, who is only prevented from killing him by the bulletproof glass around the holding cell.

* Reddington proving that he has NervesOfSteel by casually mocking Anslo Garrick, who has him cornered in a box and is only prevented from killing him by the bulletproof glass around said box.

** Reddington's threat to [[spoiler: Aram]], the [[spoiler: supposed]] financier of the Garrick operation. He takes a gun out, but he doesn't threaten to shoot him. He disassembles the gun and empties the magazine. He informs [[spoiler: Aram]] that if he doesn't make an untraceable transfer of five million dollars to Reddington before Reddington finishes assembling and reloading the gun, ''then'' he will shoot him. The best part? [[spoiler: Red didn't even want the money, he was just trying to prove that Aram wasn't actually the financier.]]

** Especially epic is the montage near the beginning of the episode, set to "The Man Comes Around".

* Rassler killing one of Anslo's soldier, despite having a large shotgun wound in his leg.

** Like him or hate him, it is certainly impressive than Anslo Garrick can overwhelm the entire SWAT task force in the building within ''minutes'' and stand unmatched.

* Liz kicking all kinds of ass during "Anslo Garrick"

* Ressler driving a nuclear car-bomb into the sea to contain the radiation, with less than a minute before detonation and succeeding.

* Liz and Reddington are talking to a crooked plastic surgeon who refuses to reveal the new identity of a terrorist who had his face surgically altered. [[spoiler: Liz identifies herself as an FBI agent and reveals that Reddington is now working for the FBI. Faced with the threat of jail time, the surgeon caves in and gives them the information they need. As soon as they have what they came for, Reddington and Liz fake outrage at how easily the surgeon failed their SecretTestOfCharacter and now they will have to find another plastic surgeon to work with who won't betray his clients' secrets as soon as the FBI is mentioned. As they leave, the surgeon is begging Reddington to give him another chance.]]

** And in 'The Courier' when he pretends to be the title character in front of a contractor and even ''cuts himself with a broken wine bottle'' to prove that he is the real deal (as The Courier is known for his inability to feel pain). [[spoiler: Sure, it doesn't work, but it's still awesome]].

** He gets another earlier when he walks into a meeting with a druglord and Reddington introduces him as an FBI agent. Despite being held at knifepoint, he overpowers the guards and sells the druglord on the lie that he's a LawmanGoneBad and Red's man inside the FBI. And this despite always being played as not that bright.

* Reddington [[spoiler:tossing The Stewmaker into his own chemical stew.]]
