** Alternatively: Tom cuts Jack's head off and Jack, instead of falling over dead, picks his head up and throws it at Tom.
* '''Deconstructed''': [[Senseless Sacrifice|The meaningless sacrifice]] made by the soldiers [[Last Stand|that refused to retreat]] creates a terrible scar on the morale of the surviving troops, and the terrible loss of resources during that nefarious day becomes the first piece on [[Disaster Dominoes|a chain of failures]] that eventually led to the crushing defeat of the heroes at the hands of the evil army.
