Line 62:
* In the first book of ''[[The Hunger Games (novel)|The Hunger Games]]'', Peeta goes to collect some berries. However, his partner points out they are poisonous. {{spoiler|A few moments later, Foxface (another contestant in the Hunger Games) dies after stealing some supplies from the duo after seeing Peeta pick the berries.}}
* Happens in the [[Lord Darcy]] case, "The Ipswitch Phial".
* ''[[The Wonderful Wizard of Oz]]''; Dorothy never intended to kill the Witch, she was just angry when the villain managed to steal one of the Slippers.
 
** [[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The movie]] retains the Trope, but gives Dorothy a very different reason - the Witch tried to kill the Scarecrow by burning him alive. Dorothy used the water to douse the fire, and hit the villain in the process.
** The version shown in ''[[Wicked (novel)|Wicked]]'' makes this even more tragic. Elphaba had, in her rage, set her ''own'' dress on fire, and Dorothy (who had tried to ''apologize for what happened to her sister'', no less) doused her with the water in an attempt to ''save'' her.
