Sometimes done [[Shut Up Kiss|to interrupt a guy speaking/shouting]], either to just shut him up or because someone is coming.

Line 94:
* In ''Games of Command'' by Linnea Sinclair, Branden's trying to blend in among Tasha's former coworkers when he spots several who know him personally. He tugs Tasha into an access corridor and starts kissing her to hide his face. Since the couple had gotten together a few days before and broken up a few hours before, Tasha is understandably confused.
* In ''Gabriel's Ghost'' by Linnea Sinclair, Sullivan, Chaz, and Ren are trying to pick the lock on a door in a public hallway. When they hear someone coming, Sullivan takes the chance to steal a kiss from Chaz, and silences her protests by claiming they need an excuse to be standing around in a hallway. The passerby laugh and tell them to get a room, and Ren apologizes claiming it's the couple's honeymoon.
* Most of the kisses between Katniss and Peeta in ''[[The Hunger Games]]'', seeing as they're supposed to keep up a [[Star
* Used by Corran Horn in ''[[X Wing Series|Wedge's Gamble]]'' to avoid being seen by his nemesis while on an undercover mission.
Line 102:
* In ''[[The Mighty Boosh]]'' when {{spoiler|Howard and Vince are on the roof together the night of Howards birthday party.}}
* In a flashback on ''[[NCIS (TV)|NCIS]]'', Ziva saves a former marine by claiming that he was looking at banned areas of a ship because she asked him to find them some privacy - instead of spying. They then proceed to enjoy themselves until the suspicious crewmember leaves, and Ziva starts telling him off for his stupidity.
* Chloe once started kissing Clark on ''[[Smallville (TV)|Smallville]]'' when the two were caught looking at hospital records, then fed the security guard some story about taking a break from their "[[Is That What
** Happens again in the Season 9 premiere. Lois speaks with John Corben, who she believes is a detective at the time. When an actual cop comes, he evokes this trope without her consent. She takes it [[Sarcasm Mode|rather well]]...
* Subverted in ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)|Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' (of course it was). Xander suggests this so people aren't suspicious when they invade The Initiative. Buffy stops him by pointing out little is more suspicious than a scientist and a soldier making out in a secret military base. In another episode, it was the excuse Xander and Cordelia (more appropriately dressed as his trashy girlfriend) successfully used to get access to the armory.
Line 108:
** In the Season 2 finale Buffy runs into Xander at the hospital. As she's wanted by the police Xander quickly pulls her into a hug when two cops pass them in the corridor. On letting go Buffy jokes that Xander did that partially to cop a feel; Xander's lack of response to this tells Buffy that something bad has happened to Willow.
* Also happens in the fourth season of ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'', when Fred and Angel are trying to evade Jasmine's followers. It's initiated by Fred, but it of course doesn't work, given that everyone in the city is being mind-controlled by Jasmine and nothing is happening in Los Angeles -- not even a young couple making out on a midnight stroll -- without her approval.
* ''[[Star Trek Enterprise]]''. Captain Archer is talking to his [[Green
* ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' did a time-delayed version in the new series. The Doctor kisses Martha before running away, so that some of his non-human DNA will register on her, and the aliens hunting for it will be held up double-checking that Martha is human, buying him some time.
** In series six, the Doctor doesn't want Craig to find out that they've been teleported into space, so he immediately wraps himself around Craig and tries to kiss him to distract him. Craig dodges.
Line 128:
** And used between Chuck and, of all people, General Beckman in "Chuck vs. the Santa Suit". Afterwards they agree, "We will never speak of this again."
* In ''[[The IT Crowd (TV)|The IT Crowd]]'', the episode "Are We Not Men?", Moss kisses Roy to cover up their involvement in a robbery and their presence near the thieves hideout. After a moment of embarrassment, Roy points out that it would be more convenient if they hid behind a set of adjacent bins. However, Moss still uses this technique to hide from the next [[Overly Long Gag|four dozen police cars]] that drive past.
* In ''[[Degrassi the Next Generation|Degrassi: The Next Generation]]'', Paige is having some trouble getting past a bouncer into a VIP party at a movie premiere. Cue [[Gender Blender Name|Alex]] with a fake story apologizing for being late because some jerk blocked in the "Employees Only" space at the strip club, followed by a very convincing kiss. ''[[Distracted By the Sexy|That]]'' [[Distracted By the Sexy|got them in, where they proceeded to become a two-girl]] [[
* On ''[[Leverage (TV)|Leverage]]'', Parker does this to Hardison to cover for having set off a silent alarm. He [[Cannot Spit It Out|tries to discuss it]] afterward, but she apparently doesn't notice.
** And again in the third season opener.
