* In the first episode of ''[[Andromeda]]'', Captain Hunt's Nietzchean crewmate (who practices the species-wide belief of self-interest) sees that Hunt is at an disadvantage. He stands up, apologizes for his impending treachery, and then attacks the captain.
* The ''[[M*A*S*H (television)|M* A* S* H]]'' episode "Dear Sis" centered around Father Mulcahy feeling guilty for punching out a delirious guy so that he could be operated on.

* In ''[[Fallout 3]]'', the [[Robo Brain]] enemy sometimes acts like this.
* [[An Ice Person|Freudia Neuwahl]] and Liebea Palesch in ''[[Rosenkreuzstilette]]''. One can only predict the results when they go up against each other in the sequel.
