  • At the end of "Li'l Orphan Happy", after the Higgenbottoms reveal Rose to have been an imposter, faking being Happy's birth mother, Hillary proceeds to kick her out. Literally.
  • In "Something's Wrong With This Taffy", Bessie discovers that the Honeybee Taffy Factory has begun using 91% pure fake honey (from concentrate) in their production of taffy. She then exposes it to the rest of Troop 828 before reading the head scientist there the riot act.
    Bessie: Honeybee taffy has been made with pure, Grade-A honey since the beginning! You want us to look our customers in the eye and lie to them?! Oh-ho! NO! Not with Troop 828, sir! Not on my watch! (cue the whole troop, including Portia and Mary, cheering for her)
    • Then, when the scientist tries to justify his actions as a cost-cutting measure, in comes Miriam Breedlove, the Honeybee founder shutting him down and setting the factory back to the way it should be.
      Miriam: You, my friend, ought to be ashamed of yourself. Disgracing the Honeybee name. Get rid of this right now! All of it!
  • The first season's finale, "Dragonflies", is practically made of these.
    • The Honeybee girls engaging the Black Widow scouts at Pier 13. After spending the rest of the episode earlier in terror of the Dragonflies, the Honeybees show that they really can fight back.
    • The Honeybee and Dragonflies waging an aquatic race over the San Francisco Bay to reach Alcatraz Island. When the Dragonflies manage to get to the ferry first, Penny actually calls in a seal to carry her own troop over to the island. When the ferry overpowers the seal, the seal then gets an awesome moment, calling in a pod of dolphins to carry the Honeybee girls the rest of the way! Cue each of the girls on their own dolphin, riding them like jetskis to reach Alcatraz. Finally, you have Cherry, as a last resort, having Maude launch Cherry herself all the way.
    • At the end of the special, Portia actually ends up securing her troop's victory. Cherry ends up beating Bessie to Chelsea's waiting spot. All hope seems lost when Cherry presents Chelsea the strawberry fro-yo, which Portia said was her cousin's favorite. Chelsea then rejects it, saying she hates strawberry. In comes Portia, with the raspberry fro-yo, Chelsea's real favorite, meaning the Honeybees win the contest. Cherry's in shock, saying Maude overheard Portia mention the strawberry one would work. Portia then reveals that she was lying; she suspected that the Dragonflies would be eavesdropping on the Honeybees, so she gave away false information. Very clever.
    • Hell, even Chelsea, who's an even bigger Alpha Bitch than Portia, gets a moment of her own.
      Cherry: Come on! You're a Dragonfly!
      Chelsea: Was. Past-tense. And back in my day, we played rough. But not dirty.
  • Bessie battling a giant field of monster weeds in "My Way Or The Bee Way", and Happy doing the same at the end of the episode to save Bessie and Portia, using Bessie's own makeshift weed-whacking suit.
