13* In an OffscreenMomentOfAwesome, Gideon managed to somehow steal a Gem artifact from under the Crystal Gem's noses.
14* In "Copies and Clones", Dipper and Steven work together to take out their crazed clones (who, ironically enough, had previously teamed up to get rid of the originals).
15* Pearl's story in "Bottomless Pit": "Battle of the Bleeding Moon". It depicts a rather intense battle between the Crystal Gems and a gem monster, though she is cut off before she can reveal how Rose managed to defeat it.
16* In "Arcade Mania", Garnet single-handedly defeats [[TheGameComeToLife Rumble McSkirmish]] with just a few blows in Arcade Mania after rescuing Dipper from him.

22* All four of the kids pulling Rose's sword out of Lion's mane in "Irrational Treasure" is pretty epic, while Trembley's reaction is fittingly hilarious.
23* In "Future Vision", Pearl and Amethyst manage to drive Sev'ral Timez' cruel producer away from the Mystery Shack without even using any force, just their wits (and a bit of shapeshifting).
24** Pearl getting the above-mentioned manager arrested.
25* The majority of Stan and Amethyst's Revenge Trip in the eponymous chapter is not just funny, but also a series of Awesome Moments.
26* At the climax of "Gideon Rises", the Gems form Alexandrite and come to the aid of the Mystery Twins. Between Dipper wrestling with Gideon and Alexandrite battling the Gideon-bot, Gideon didn't stand a chance.
27** After falling from the Gideon-bot's clutches, Mabel tries to save Dipper with her grappling hook, but it just misses... then [[BigDamnHeroes Steven and Connie teleport in on Lion and manage to catch them just in time]].

31* Stan fighting off the zombies in "Scary-oke" is double awesome when his actions manage to impress ''the Gems''.
32-->'''Stan:''' And what are you three looking at!? Haven't you ever seen a man beat a zombie's head in before?
33* In "The Golf War", Pearl and Garnet join Stan and Amethyst on their Revenge Trip against the Northwests. When they vandalize the Northwest mansion, Pearl boldly graffitis this extensive insult on the manor's wall:
34-->''Snobbish, self-entitled, greedy, supercilious, upper crust, corrupt, cold hearted, thoughless, rude, arrogant elitists!''
35* In "Forever Alone", Steven and Dipper reconcile and re-fuse into Stepper just in time to [[BigDamnHeroes save Mabel and the Crystal Gems]] from Peridot's new Robonoids.
36* In "Dipper and Lapis", the titular duo manages to fight off a group of Gem monsters together.
37* Even though [[CurbStompBattle they get their heads handed to them]], it's impressive how Dipper and Mabel are willing to stand up to [[SuperSoldier Jasper]] in defense of Steven and the Gems at the end of "The Return".
38* Dipper and Mabel using Mabel's grappling hook to get aboard the Hand Ship in "Jailbreak".

44** Steven finally standing up to Bill and refusing to let himself be bullied or blackmailed anymore.
45--->"All you've done since this whole thing began is threaten and hurt me and my friends, but no more! I'm ''done'' letting you get away with all these horrible, messed-up things! After all, [[IronicEcho you said so yourself]]; our deal is ''over''."
46* Steven using his bubble to cushion the fall of him, Bipper, Mabel and Connie from the rafters.
47* In "Do It For Them" Dipper, despite still being wounded from "Sock Opera", joins Connie in learning how to use swords, and does pretty well despite the pain and injuries.
48* In "Keeping It Together", Dipper finally gets the chance to show off his new sword skills, and does a pretty good job pinning Peridot down long enough for Amethyst to get in a shot.
49* In “Society of The Blind Eye”, after talking Steven down from using the memory gun to erase their Bill knowledge, Dipper covers for him when Connie sees them with it.

55[[folder: Arc Six]]
56* While Dipper's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech towards Steven and Mabel in "Lost and Found" is a huge gut puncher, it can also be a bit carthartic for readers who dislike their selfish behavior in canon.
57* Mixed with heartwarming, but Stan managed to give Steven a much-needed encouraging talk in "Cry For Help".
58* Dipper charging Probabilator with the Ancient Sea Blade in "Dungeons, Dungeons, and More Dungeons".

64* In "The Last Mabelcorn", Pearl gets some deeply desired payback on a certain unicorn for her past words about Rose.
65* The group takes down Pyrite, a powerful fusion of Peridot and ''Bill Cipher''! Dipper, Maven, and several of the Crystal Gems' fusions (Opal, Sugilite, and Sardonyx) all get their shot, and rather fittingly it's Dipper who deals the final blow, giving him some measure of payback against Bill for the events of "Sock Opera" and the aftermath.

70* Sapphire actually intimidates Gideon when she learns that Ruby has been captured, and stops him from shooting Dipper with his crossbow.
71* The big fight at the end of "Split Up", with Garnet pretty much effortlessly catching Peridot and Gideon after she reforms, and [[TookALevelInBadass Mabel and Dipper]] [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome effortlessly mopping up Gideon's goons]].
72--> '''Mabel:''' Man, the movies lied to me. They made it look like big, tough prison gangs were hard to take out, but these guys were total pushovers. Lame!
73* Stan defends Amethyst after Peridot reveals her "defective" nature in "To Con A Clod".
74-->"So what if she didn't 'come out right'? I've known her for a ''long'' time, and let me tell you something about her, greenie, that even a stupid brainiac like you wouldn't know: she's the ''best'' one of you Gems I've ''ever'' met, which is why I'm not gonna stand here and listen to someone like ''you'' put her down!"
75* Although it's rather sad, both Ford and [=McGucket=] [[BothSidesHaveAPoint make good points]] in their argument in "Bot Battle", and have the strength to admit it later.
76* Peridot, Dipper, and Pacifica work together to defeat a Gem mutant in "Peridot & Pacifica".
77* Ford using his blaster to keep the communications crystal away from Peridot in "Message Received".
78* Dipper nearly manages to get through to Malachite ''twice'' in "Out Too Far", only failing due to Jasper interfering.

82[[folder: Arc Eight]]
83* In "Same Old World", it's revealed that Lapis and Ford ''both'' managed to escape from Homeworld custody somehow.
84* In "Home Away From Homeworld", Yellow Diamond manages to NoSell every weapon in Ford's arsenal of interdimensional weaponry.
85-->'''Yellow Diamond:''' I wouldn't expect a creature as lowly as a ''human'' to know this, but all of your primitive, meager weapons are ''nothing'' compared to the strength and fortitude of a ''Diamond''.
86* Steven managing to cure the transformed humans and Gems in "Monster Falls".
87* In "Alone On The Lake", Dipper stands up to ''Jasper'' when she tries to force Lapis to fuse with her again. He also calls Lapis out for missing Malachite.
88** It also says something about ''just'' how tough Jasper is when ''getting her hand chopped off'' by Dipper doesn't cause her to discorporate.
89* Stepper's fight against Bill in "Rift".
90** As painful as it was, Dipper's ReasonYouSuckSpeech to Steven as well. Dipper brings up some very good points about Steven's behavior, namely, how he tends to always rush into things without thinking.
91* In "Memories", Ford gets an epic calling out about keeping the rift secret from the Gems.
92* The heroes get several awesome moments in “Dimensions”:
93** After Dipper's memories are restored, Stepper gives Bill an ''awesome'' ShutUpHannibal sppech when Bill has the gall to say that they cheated.
94** Dipevebel, the Gems, Stan, and Ford actually have Bill on the ropes in their fight, and might have ''won'' if Ford had brought his quantum destabilizer.
