10 Uncharacteristically Competent Actions By Dumb Movie Characters

10. Gordon Beats The Cougars Single-Handedly (DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story)

Gordon Pibb wasn't necessarily lacking in intelligence (heck, he learnt those dodgeball rules in no time!), but he was extremely naive, lacking in common sense, something of a doormat and completely useless at dodgeball. When dodgeball coach Patches O'Houlihan realised this, he told him that the best way for Gordon to perform well in the sport was to get angry - mostly to no avail. Gordon was just too nice. However, when the quiet fellow found himself as the only remaining team member in the Average Joe's during their all-important semi-final match with the Cougars, Gordon found his anger. Looking in to the crowd and seeing his rude younger Asian wife flirting with another man - as she tended to do, given that he was a doormat - Gordon blew his top and took out the entire opposing team single-handedly.
