** Another such gambit involves a gangster and rival of the Joker dying and willing him 250 million dollars. On paper. What ''really'' happened was that only 10 million dollars of the inheritance was real. The rival was banking on the Joker's massive ego not allowing him to admit to being fooled, which makes things hard for the Joker when it's time to pay inheritence tax.
* ''[[Justice League (animation)|Justice League]]'': A villainous version happens when Lex Luthor builds a city for the poor as a charity event and then places a huge machine under it, suspiciously whispering about it to his aide. Superman, who was invited to the event, thinks it's a bomb and wrecks half the city trying to destroy it. Turns out it was an experimental generator and now half the country hates the Justice League.
Line 51:
* Slade forces Robin to be his apprentice in ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]''. He does this by infecting the other Titans with Nanoscopic Probes, which he can activate if Robin doesn't obey. When he is about to destroy them, Robin decides to infect himself with the same probes. He tells Slade that if he loses his friends, Slade loses his apprentice. Slade angrily destroys the controller.
* In an episode of ''Arthur'', Arthur refused to take D.W. to a science museum. The next day, D.W. shows off her own science exhibit...which includes such explanations as "H2O can be made by combining O (oxygen) with H (hose)" and "the sun turns off at night." So, Arthur and the Brain finally take her to prove her wrong, only for D.W. to reveal that her whole plan was to be taken to the museum.
* In the ''[[Recess]]'' movie ''[[Recess: School's Out]]'', Mikey begins to sing a song. He expects that the guards standing outside Third Street School will attempt to stop him from doing so (even though Mikey isn't actually attempting to enter the building), and will fall into the pit that Sam and Dave dug a few inches away from him. The plan works splendidly.
