Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}|Breaking the Cuties]] in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include: |
|||
* On [[Lincoln Heights]] every single child living in Lincoln Heights without ONE single exception. Most of the adults were broken when they were young as well. |

* "Heart of Fire" in ''[[Blood Ties]]'' is a good example of this: the ultra-handsome, charming and quirky Henry Fitzroy is physically tortured by a mad priest, who beats, drains and starves the vampire into confessing his sins so the priest can kill him. The priest also enthusiastically Breaks the Cutie by showing him videos of his ex-girlfriend betraying him, trying to get Henry to suck dry his love interest Vicki, and twisting a device that is LODGED around Henry's heart with metal spikes. As the final Break The Cutie moment, he even kills a cute little rat that Henry had spared despite his desperation for blood. |

* OK, arguably most of the characters in ''[[Flashpoint]]'' get broken, and are various levels of cute, but Spike seems to fit the trope best. The goofiest, most happy-go-lucky of the team has had to deal with the deaths of his best friend Lew, his father, and his mentor, has been held hostage twice himself (including once with his kind of girlfriend), and has been hit with an incendiary device and a smoke bomb. Poor guy. |
