Line 19:
== Anime & Manga ==
* Used by two different pairs in one episode of ''[[Zero no Tsukaima]]'', Louise x Agnes being the [[Mistaken for Gay|more entertaining]] of the two—Agnes eavesdrops on a conversation between conspirators, Louise comes up behind her and gasps when she overhears part of the plot. When one of the men goes to investigate, Agnes quickly kisses Louise until the man walks off. Agnes looks disgusted (or, at least, very embarrassed) afterwards, but for some odd reason, someone happens to mention a rumor to Louise later on that Agnes might like women...
** In that exact same episode/chapter of the light novel, there's a really steamy, passionate scene where Princess HenrietaHenrietta [[Black Comedy Rape|practically rapes Saito]] to avoid arrest by government officials looking for her.
** Also on the subject of Agnes, she ''is'' rather androgynous/masculine in appearance,<ref>As long as she's wearing something loose enough to hide her figure, which is definitely ''NOT'' masculine</ref> so her and Louise kissing wouldn't necessarily look like a lesbian makeout session to unknowing observers.
** Then there's another moment where the Queen and Saito do this, only using something more... racy.
Line 81:
* Also used in ''[[The Shadowof the Lion]]'' by [[Mercedes Lackey]], [[Eric Flint]], and [[Dave Freer]]. However, there is nothing fake about it, and technically, the participants were not making out.
* Dirk does this to Tia in one of the Second Sons trilogy books.
* In [[Isaac Asimov]]'s novel ''Pebble in the Sky'', one of the protagonists has a secret meeting with a girl in a car. She says that if someone is coming, they should do this. Then she '''lies''' that someone is coming.
* In ''In the Belly of the Bloodhound'', part of of the ''[[Bloody Jack]]'' series, Jackie Faber and her [[Arch Nemesis]] Clarissa are taking advantage of a diversion to look for possible escape routes, IIRC. Hearing someone coming, Jackie grabs Clarissa and makes out with her. Passionately. A [[Minion with an F In Evil]] walks in on them, causing them to be [[Mistaken for Gay]].
* Happens in ''Sweet-Talking TJ'' by Karen [[Mc Combie]], between the titular character of the book and Stella to trick the police. It might have worked, but then they might have just not been seen.
Line 96:
* Most of the kisses between Katniss and Peeta in ''[[The Hunger Games]]'', seeing as they're supposed to keep up a [[Star-Crossed Lovers]] masquerade—or at least all of them are to Katniss before she starts feeling something. To Peeta, it's a completely different story.
* Used by Corran Horn in ''[[X Wing Series|Wedge's Gamble]]'' to avoid being seen by his nemesis while on an undercover mission.
* The "Fake" part is subverted in ''A Planet in Arms'' by Donald Barr, in which to protect [[The Spymaster|spymistress]] Citizen Wells from a would-be rapist, it's not enough for Wells' agent Corander to '''pretend''' he's having sex with her; he has to actually do so. And Wells, Corander discovers at this point, is a virgin. Well, now it's '''was''' a virgin. Luckily, a) Wells fully understands why Corander's doing this; b) {{spoiler|he's such a [[Nice Guy]] that basicallyjust about any woman he's intimate with soon falls for him, -- Wells<ref>She knows this, too, because she used to assign female agents to getspy close toon '''him''', and kept having to replace them since she couldn't any longer trust them to rat him out if necessary</ref> and Wells turns out to be no exception; and c) at this point Corander also realizes he's been in love with his boss for a while now.}}

'''Hardison:''' Heey... }}
* ''[[Hogan's Heroes]]'' has several uses of this method. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
{{quote|'''Hogan''': There's never a [[Gestapo|policeman]] around when you need one!}}
* ''[[Oz]]''. An undercover police officer passes on information to his female partner by having her pose as his wife on a prison visit, then whispering the information in her ear while they're kissing passionately. It's obvious however that the two are lovers in real life also.
* In the mini-series ''[[A Man Called Intrepid]]'' a man-female spy team supposedly disappear into an office for a little nookie, but actually to rifle through the files. When the guard becomes suspicious, the woman starts to fake moans of passion, whereupon he just smirks and goes back to his post. Note: this was based on a real life [[WW 2]] incident where a couple were breaking into an embassy safe while supposedly making love—in that case the woman stepped naked into the guard's flashlight beam, whereupon the embarressedembarrassed guard quickly left.
* ''[[Babylon 5]]''. Captain Sheridan is being hit on by a [[Honey Trap|beautiful naked Political Officer]]. He looks like he's going to refuse her advances when Ivanova (who's up to something he really doesn't want anyone to find out about) teleports into his office. As she's about to turn around to see what could possibly be [[Ignore the Fanservice|distracting Sheridan from her naked body]], Sheridan grabs her for a passionate clinch, giving Ivanova the opportunity for some great [[Deadpan Snarker|deadpan snarking]]. "I think you're about to go where [[Really Gets Around|everyone has gone before]]."
* Played with in ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]''. Bela and Dean pretend to be married in the ghost ship episode. Bela pretends to faint, and they use this as an excuse to get into the room with the records they need. Dean leaves, and when a security guard comes to check on Bela, she acts like Dean is still they're and they are up to something (Complete with moaning when the guard closes the door.) The guard then sees Dean walking back up the hall. He assumes Bela is cheating on him.
