Heroic Defiance

"Defying orders, eh? Well, I see you Scotsmen are thrifty with courage, too."

- Skinner when Groundskeeper Willie refuses to destroy Bart's freedom tunnel.

Heroic Defiance is when heroes disobey or defy the orders they're given.

Examples

 * Gosalyn Mallard disobeys her father Darkwing Duck for sneaking out of the Ratcatcher and trying to stop Megavolt and Quackerjack herself.
 * Tom Paris disobeys Kathryn Janeway's orders for stealing a spacecraft and helping Riga out.
 * Simba disobeying his father Mufasa for going to the Elephant Graveyard and putting Nala at risk.

Quotes
"Great. Gone five minutes and my own daughter forgets my name, just like she forgot she was supposed to stay in the Ratcatcher. (Gosalyn: Launchpad!) Don't change the subject, I have had it with you, young lady. You are grounded for a month!"

- Darkwing Duck when Gosalyn has disobeyed his order to stay in the Ratcatcher
