#15 - Noah's Ark
The beloved children’s tale of the time God decided to put his favorite person and family in a boat with a pair of every animal to repopulate the entire world and then flooded everything so every living thing on dry land died.

17 - Elijah and Elisha
On God’s command, the prophet Elijah recruits his replacement -- the very similarly-named Elisha. Elijah is dramatically taken directly into heaven, and Elisha carries on his work. Meanwhile, King Ahab and his two sons who reign as king after him are generally weak and whiny, and nobody likes them, including God.
