Parents Walk in At the Worst Time

An older teenager, or young adolescent goes to his or her room with a friend of the opposite gender. At some point, his parent will find some reason to barge in.

This plays out in two ways:
 * Type 1: Boy and girl are making out, or about to. Parent will bring contraceptives if this was expected, or a very shocked look if it wasn't. (Warnings and snacks could be brought in either circumstance). If unexpected, Hilarity Ensues, though we usually don't see it. Awkwardness between parent and child will also ensue.
 * Type 2: Boy and Girl are doing something innocent, like studying or playing board games, and the parent walked in expecting that they were making out.

Related to Moment Killer. A subtrope of Interrupted Intimacy. For children walking in on their parents, see Primal Scene.
