"Reverend Davies: Now, Faye, I think you're overreacting a bit. This is a one-time occurrence. Besides, we have to look at how Christ would have handled this situation. Faye: "And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that bought and sold in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, and said unto them, "It is written that My House shall be called the House of Prayer, but ye have made it a den of thieves." Reverend Davies: Maybe not Jesus. There were other people in the Bible who appreciated economics. Faye: I hear Judas was quite the bargain hunter. A parcel of land and it just cost him thirty silver and a Messiah on a stick."
 * That's not the Pythagorean!
 * This was top grade asshole. Trust me, I know what it takes to be an asshole. - Mike just keeps finding new ways to earn readers' respect.
 * Faye McIntire reading the riot act to Reverend Davies, a sellout minister. Not only does she have the nerve to tell him to his face that he's doing something deeply wrong in removing church programs that a rich parishioner doesn't like, she caps it twice over in the following exchange:

"Kym (to the two Wiccan girls): "Wow! I'm so sorry. You see, my friend just has this thing about people who don't research their desperate cries for attention better and just spout out anything to seem special.""
 * Davan gets one early in the series when he lays the smackdown on two Wiccans whose view of the Salem witch trials seems to have been largely formed by pop culture simply by knowing the actual history. And he proceeds to tell them the actual history--in full rant mode. This troper, who loves history passionately and hates it when people get it wrong, CHEERED.
 * Kym gets a Crowning Moment within a Crowning Moment when she follows Davan's lecture-rant with this speech:

""The shortest verse in the Bible is 'Jesus wept'. The only thing wrong with it is the past tense.""
 * Davan's father Fred calling out a group of fundamentalists running a "Hell House", a fake haunted house which is a front for preaching:


 * And then he gets another in the very next strip when he's told they won't let him leave unless he says he accepts Jesus. He sits down and refuses to move. "Touche, crazy grandpa. Touche."
 * Jason gets one at the end of the catgirl storyline (starting here).
 * Mike has one of his first moments of awesomeness, here.
 * Now he get's moment number two as seen in this newspaper clipping where he's actually broke up a fight involving a knife. Not bad for a supposedly feeble guy.
 * After Twitchy-Hug makes one too many attempts on Davan's life, Choo-Choo Bear gets his cousin whacked. And it is awesome.
 * Jason's Roleplaying extracts a confession from someone without laying a finger on the guy.
