EPISODE DESCRIPTION – In this episode, Zena lists 7 things that are often lauded as being heroic in stories, but are not actually heroic. These include:
1. To have an illness; to be a victim; to have a bad hand dealt to you.
2. To survive your own iniquity.
3. To have a great talent or skill.
4. To risk it all for a selfish or stupid thing.
5. To fight using disproportionate means.
6. To do an evil to achieve a good.
7. To win by accident.
