This pivotal moment occurred in season 2, Episode 6 at the Epsom Derby where McRory's Aunt Polly takes decisive action against Sam Neill's Inspector Chester Campbell and shoots him. Polly's decision to kill Campbell, her abuser is a testament to her strength and strong desire to take revenge from a man who made her feel helpless in her time of vulnerability. This moment showed the strength and resilience of her character which stole our hearts.
