Line 15:

* There's a variation in ''[[Code Geass]]'', where Lelouch tries to keep his alter ego secret from his sister.
Line 98:
* Drakken's mom was probably the single funniest thing in ''[[Kim Possible]]'', one of the reasons for this being that she ''completely believes'' he is a radio talk show host. This despite the fact that he studied robotics, not psychiatry. Then again, anyone ''would'' want to cover up the fact that their world domination schemes were foiled by teenagers.
* Tohru's mom in ''[[Jackie Chan Adventures]]'' is unaware that her son is working as a thug for Valmont and not knowing that the latter is a [[Diabolical Mastermind]].
** Well she knew
* ''[[The Simpsons]]'' provides the page quote. When they went to Florida during Spring Break, the local sheriff was disappointed with Joe C. (the foul mouthed little person who toured with Kid Rock). A parody as much as anything, given the utterly inconsequential matter.
* The Miser Brothers of ''[[The Year Without a Santa Claus]]'' may be elemental demigods who are essentially waging war on each other, but the very last thing they want to see Mrs. Claus do is tell their mother -- [[Mother Nature]] -- that they aren't willing to cooperate to give Santa a day off.
