I'm reminded of a scene I saw on youtube from an anime about a girl who picks up an assassin's gun from the table to attempt to shoot him with it (he was the main character and left the gun unloaded), and one of the comments I came across mocked the idea that such a woman would exist because John Wick can be real but no woman could do that, and like.....that literally happened with Zinaida Portnova.
