what scene, if you mean the one of Meg being tortured, then you'd take out one of my fave scenes involving Meg, esp. as someone who loves the character.
because the way she reacts to the torture is something that in most cases is only given to male characters.
She doesn't whimper, she doesn't beg for mercy, she doesn't just threaten that the hero will come and save her. She basically humiliates the guy torturing her with words. In the same manner that Alistair did to Dean in s4.
She's allowed to be strong, defiant, snarky, while being tortured, which makes her badass as hell.
Maybe I've just read too many comics, but this is one of the few shows or comics, where an imprisoned female character is allowed to look that strong and I love the show for giving it to Meg.
