[[AC:War Room + Ship]]
* Mac gets to know a teacher onboard a ship that is saving the lives of her students through the two working together, with a particularly close relationship forming over video call -- up until she has to perform a HeroicSacrifice to make sure the ship only takes her down with it by sealing a flood long enough to keep the rest afloat in time for the Coast Guard to reach them. We get to see her start suffering from hypothermia, before the room slowly and gradually floods. There is no DeusExMachina, nor any real theatrics as the video feed finally cuts off right before she drowns. Just an innocent hero of a teacher silently dying right before Mac's eyes thousands of miles away, and him being unable to do anything.

* There's something chilling about the ease with which Murdoc breaks into Mac's house, incapacitates and kidnaps him. He gets away with his prisoner so neatly Jack declares the trail cold, and if the escape hadn't been [[MyPlanAllAlong part of Murdoc's plan]], Mac would have been in real trouble.

* When Harper Hayes gets [[spoiler:yanked off her feet by Mac's electromagnet]], it looks like something from a horror movie: she rises from the ground with her eyes rolling back in her head like she's possessed. No wonder Jack fell to his knees and crossed himself!
