You could punch a guy in the face and he'd be down for the count for the rest of the episode.


But if you broke a wooden chair across the same guy's back he'd still be in the fight.

Perfectly described the stupidity that is The Fast and the Furious, but those guys also drove around with 4 pounds of C4 in every back seat.

If you're the pretty girlfriend of a main character you will probably be kidnapped or killed.
The main character will be hospitalized in a coma while everyone has flashbacks about him.

Cars blow up when you shoot 'em (pretty much anywhere).

If you are the main character and are blown up, beat up, shot up or stabbed, you will be good to go by next week.
