The Ark of Truth/Awesome
- The scene in Stargate: The Ark of Truth in which Teal'c, Left for Dead when the rest of the group are captured by the Ori, walks all the way down the mountain with a decidedly unpleasant blast wound in his back using an Ori staff weapon as a walking stick, collapse just outside the City of Celestis, rises again and pushes on. Sure, he had some help at that point, but getting inside the Path of Origin equivalent of the Vatican by himself? Badass.
- This scene leads to the curious situation of a moment of Fridge Logic being a Crowning Moment of Awesome: the audience doesn't question how Teal'c gets into what must be the most heavily guarded building in two galaxies because he's Teal'c: it's what he does.
- To Elaborate... This wasn't just his previous demonstrations of Badass in the opening of a movie, or for one or two seasons. The man has been doing this for ten seasons of Stargate SG-1, and had guest appearances on Atlantis. This is literally what we've been watching him do since we met him. how many other characters in any series or movie have that much background to justify something like this?
