*** It manages this in large part by averting the ''shit'' out of both SheFu and BeautyIsNeverTarnished in the case of Arquette. No graceful backflips or high kicks, just a whole lot of desperation, endurance, and every possible kind of weapon she can get her hands on. At the end, well, [[Series/TheSopranos Junior was right. Tony didn't have the makings of a varsity hitman]].

At the end, well, let's just say that [[Series/TheSopranos Junior was right. Tony Virgil didn't have the makings of a varsity hitman]].

* Clarence's father Clifford, when Vincenzo Coccotti pays a visit to him to try to get the info out of him about where his son is, defies him in one of the most awesome ways possible. Knowing that Vincenzo is going to kill him no matter what, he goes into one hell of a speech about how "Sicilians were spawned from niggers", with the aim of getting Vincenzo so pissed that he'll kill him without making him give up his son's location. [[spoiler: And it works.]]

*** Another cool thing to take notice is how long it took for her to kill Virgil. Unlike most "Empowering" moments similar to this, Alabama [[CurbStompBattle doesn't just stab Virgil once or twice and then win]], she has to constantly keep attacking him, using anything that she can grab ranging from busts to shower soap while ''still'' getting a few punches from the bastard before finally doing him in.

Alabama is also clearly frightened through most of the ordeal, and lets out a pained [[ThisIsGonnaSuck "Oh, God..."]] once Virgil threatens her with "No More Mr. Nice Guy."
