Line 273:
* ''[[Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?]]''; in the ''first scene'' of the ''first episode'' of the Netflix series, an arrogant Interpol officer lectures to his novice partner how easy it will be to nab Carmen, oblivious for a minute or two of the novice's attempts to tell him she's scaling the wall right behind them. Naturally, she grabs the loot and effortlessly escapes, stealing his wallet in the process just to spite him.
* Something of a [[Running Gag]] in some ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' shorts where the villain is looking for someone who is right next to him. For example, Elmer Fudd might be hunting for Bugs Bunny, thinking he has the drop on by pointing his gun down a burrow, Bugs comes out of another burrow, greets him (with a "What's up Doc?") and asks what he's doing. Elmer will say he's looking for a rabbit, causing Bugs to shrug (or make a snarky look towards the viewer) and walk away, saying he'll let him know if he sees one. Most of the time, though, Elmer catches on eventually.
* From the ''[[Helluva Boss]]'' episode "MAMMON'S MAGNIFICENT MUSICAL MID-SEASON SPECIAL (ft Fizzarolli)"; the song "2 Minutes' Notice" performed by Fizzarolli is [["The Villain Sucks" Song]] aimed at his evil boss, Mammon. Despite the lyrics, Mammon himself seem completely unaware that the song is about ''him''; he actually enjoys the performance even when Asmodeus clues him in on who Fizz is talking about. It isn't until Fizz calls him a "sad sack of shit" that is sinks in.
