* ''Sisterhood'' series by [[Fern Michaels]]: Hoo, boy! This trope certainly pops up. For example, Charles sends presidential men with gold shields to scare Jack Emery, but the men ''misconstrue'' the orders and give Jack a [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]] in the book ''Payback''. Jack Emery knows that Charles is responsible for this, but after the book ''Free Fall'', in which Jack becomes an honourary member of the Vigilantes and is revealed as this to the entire group, it seems that Jack has pretty much forgotten about the whole affair. Also, Jack and Ted Robinson start out as friends, become enemies by the book ''Free Fall'', but once Ted more or less becomes a member by the book ''Collateral Damage'', it's all cool now. Although Jack did say that they are trying to take it one step at a time.
* In ''[[Warrior Cats]]'', during the fifth book of ''[[Omen of the Stars]]'', {{spoiler|1=Hollyleaf returns to ThunderClan and nobody cares about her crimes, even when they find out that she killed Ashfur.}}
* In ''[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (novel)|How the Grinch Stole Christmas]]'', all the Whos down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot, but the Grinch, who lived just north of Whoville, did not. So he stole all their Christmas accoutrements and '''all their food'''. But [[Easy Evangelism|he gave it back after]], which apparently justified making him the guest of honor at Christmas dinner.
** Grinch gives it back when he finds out the Whos are completely unfazed by the fact that all their stuff is gone. He got the message of the spirit of Christmas after that, and the Whos are so happy he learned to be good and appreciate other people that they honoured him.
