| - Who knew a show about claymation puppets making fun of fundamentalism could make you you shout "FUCK YEAH!"
* Orel beating the crap out of his father in "Turn The Other Cheek". Of course, Orel was just acting on his skewed perception of a moral lesson (as usual) but damn was it fun to see Clay get his ass kicked by his son, considering all the crap that Clay had put him through (and would put him through).
* After a night of abuse and general dickery in "Nature", Clay passes out, drunk. A bear enters the camp, and almost eats Clay, but Orel kills it with a pistol. When Clay wakes up, the night a total blank, he finds the dead bear and begs Orel to tell him that his son finally killed something. Orel, disgusted, replies, "No, Dad, you killed it," just to spite his father.

Orel, disgusted, replies, "No, Dad, you killed it," just to spite his father.
* Also in "Nature", Orel to Clay: "You become a bad person when you drink!" And, of course, a couple minutes later, Orel finally telling his father what he really thinks:
* Don't forget the scene in the bar where Clay let's loose on the patrons.
*
* Sick of him, Reverend Putty, Officer Papermouth and Doctor Potterswheel get ready to beat the shit out of Clay in "Sacrifice" - then they decide that he isn't worth it and walk away. (Awesomer when you remember that Clay's dad does essentially the same thing-- even as an adult, Clay seeks attention through abuse-- and fails.
* Coach Stopframe's final rejection of Clay in the series finale, despite Clay's pleas of love. Daniel doesn't deserve someone as depraved as Clay.
* Crowning Music of Awesome: The Mountain Goat's "No Children" playing in Season 3's "Numb". It's surreal just how well the song fits the situation Clay and Bloberta are in, and works to fantastic effect.
* The same band's song "Love, Love, Love" in "Passing".
* High Priestess Regan's chilling Airetania, which plays during Orel's near-death experience in "Grounded".
* Ready to bolt at the first sign of failsafe, signing my checks with a name that's not mine...
* The doctor in "Holy Visage" managing to heal himself while both of his arms are bound to the hospital bed, including using his Star of David to blow bubbles of medicine into his wound.
* From "Nesting". When Clay threatens Orel with his usual trip to the study, which usually results in a Loud Gulp from Orel, he instead just stares at him, totally numb to his fathers threats. Orel realizing how pathetic Clay is in that scene, is beyond awesome.
* The last scene in "Honor", in which we see that, despite his often abusive and downright terrible childhood, Orel had the willpower not to be broken by it, growing up to be a loving father and husband, proving to be a better person than his own father.
