Fillmore!/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: Vallejo's CMOA: Personally threatening the son of a Canadian ambassador who abuses his diplomatic immunity, knowing full well it lies outside his jurisdiction and that his title of junior-commissioner could be suspended. Note this also happens after his two best officers quit the safety patrol to take care of the perp and his gang on their own, after he nagged them about leaving said kid alone. Vallejo would have been obligated to take Fillmore and Ingrid's badges, and he cares about the two enough to not want to be the one to do it. You know he knows what's at stake, and he goes through with it anyway. Also counts as a Big Damn Heroes moment.

Vallejo: We may not be able to officially bust you, but if you cause any more trouble in this school, the entire Safety Patrol is going to turn your life into a nightmare from which you will never wake. Am I making myself clear?
Winston Cotter: ...yes, sir.

  • And how about every Chase Scene in the entire run of the series?
  • The end of "A Forgotten Yesterday", in which the culprit is Out-Gambitted by Fillmore.
