{{examples}}

 

* ''[[Bromwell High]]'': One of the girls hides some illegal sweets people are looking for and composes a rhyme telling where they are.

{{quote| If it is the sweets you seek, into the cloakroom you must sneak, and find where I keep my books, and hang my coat and bag on hooks. Behind the metal doors is stowed the sweets what make your head explode.}}

* Subverted on ''[[Monkey Dust]]'' when a serial killer becomes entangled in a furious game of cat and mouse with a police detective. The thrill of the chase is blown when the serial killer accidentally falls asleep in his car at the crime scene after killing a man: blood stained and with weapon in hand. Disappointed that it ended with such an anticlimax, the police detective decides to let the killer go. Only to be then killed by him.

* Lampshaded in ''[[The Replacements]]''
