- Odysseus effortlessly strings his bow after all the suitors have tried and failed, then passes Penelope's test by shooting an arrow through twelve axe handles, all while disguised as a beggar. He then reveals himself to the stunned suitors and proceeds to slaughter them like the dogs they are.
- ...with the help of his son. It's implied that if Odysseus didn't come back to clear them out, Telemachus would have done it on his own.
- Not to mention the help of Athena...
- Ah, the real crowner is what happens right after: Penelope tricking the world's greatest trickster into revealing his identity, and proving her fidelity to him at the same time.
