Line 2:
* [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]: Father Brown is ''very'' awesome, but one moment that stands out is in "The Queer Feet," when he calmly tells a roomful of rich and privileged aristocrats that the [[Gentleman Thief]] has not only escaped, sacrificed his loot, but repented, the reaction is disbelieving. Father Brown calmly answers, "[[Heel Face Turn|Odd, isn't it, that a thief and a vagabond should repent,]] [[Stealth Insult|when so many who are rich and secure remain hard and frivolous, and without fruit for God or man?]]"
** From the same story, we have another CMOA when Father Brown delivers [[An Aesop]]:
{{quote| "Yes," he said; "it must be very hard work to be a gentleman; but, do you know, I have sometimes thought that it may be almost as laborious to be a waiter."}}
** Also awesome in "The Queer Feet" is his [[Badass Boast]], when the larger and stronger Flambeau, not recognizing him, says, "I don't want to threaten you." Father Brown replies that ''he'' wants to threaten ''the thief'', and '''then''' finishes up with, "I am a priest, Monsieur Flambeau ... and I am ready to hear your confession." Just hearing that makes Flambeau stagger and have to sit down.
* [[Fridge Logic]]: {{spoiler|In the first story, when Flambeau asks for the package, he reveals that he actually swiped it some time ago in the next sentence. Why would he then stay with Father Brown and ask for it at all?}}
