== Advertising ==
* There was an entire [[Xbox]] 360 commercial built around this trope, with people in a crowded city (and finger-pistols instead of actual firearms); while the commercial never aired on television, it can be viewed on the Internet.
 
 
== Anime &and Manga ==
* In the ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]'' {{spoiler|episode "Embraced by a Disguised Net -- CAPTIVATED", a kidnapper gets the drop on the Major, putting a gun to her head. However, as fits this trope, Batou shows up behind her...}}
* In the second episode of ''[[Dominion Tank Police]]'', the police Chief attempts to arrest Buaku when Anipuna and the Gang click hello him. The gang are then click hello'ed by the Red Commandos who are, of course, click hello'ed by Britain and the rest of the tank police.
* ''[[Baccano!]]!'' executes a textbook version of this (as seen in the page image) when [[The Mafia|Luck Gandor]] finds [[Jerkass|Dallas]] attempting to kill his best friend, Firo.
* In the ''[[Lupin III]]'' movie ''Dead or Alive'', Lupin and co manage to kidnap a princess, who's actually a government agent in disguise. Lupin discovers this when he's interruped mid-sentence by a pistol pressing into the back of his head.
* Sōsuke from ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]!'' has a habit of doing this to people. ''Especially'' people whom he randomly deems as being "suspicious".
* ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' has a variant of this. Ritsuko is about to show Rei's origins to Shinji but the door rejects her card. Then Misato [[Stealth Hi Bye|remarks]] from behind a gun that it won't open without her code. She did the same with Kaji when he was about to enter Lilith's chamber.

* Wolverine manages to pull this on Deathstroke in the [[Intercontinuity Crossover|X-Men/Teen Titans crossover]].
** Shouldn't that be more of a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Snikt Hello?]]
Line 115 ⟶ 114:
* ''[[CSI: Miami]]'': Lt. Caine has this down to a fine art. If someone's pointing a gun at someone else in the last five minutes of an episode, chances are this'll happen.
* Saroyan interrupts Wendall this way in the ''[[Bones]]'' episode "The End in the Beginning".
* ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]''. The first thing Lee Adama does on seeing Caprica Sharon (later known as Athena) is put a pistol in her face; he's only stopped from blowing her brains out then and there by Helo putting a gun to the back of ''his'' neck. Fortunately President Roslin talks them both down with some well-placed lies (no Helo, we're not going to [[Thrown Out the Airlock|throw your Cylon girlfriend out the airlock...]])
** Doesn't that mean this one is more of a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Click Helo]]?
** Also, in 'The Eye of Jupiter', while Gaius Baltar is praying for a vision, Chief Tyrol welcomes him home with one of these. It turns into a [["Hey You!" Haymaker]] when the Chief pistol-whips Baltar into unconsciousness.
