* In one episode of ''[[Rick and Morty]]'', Rick clearly does ''not'' want to go to Bird-Person and Tammy's wedding, despite being close friends with the groom. (Well, as much as Rick can be friends with anyone.) Rick just doesn't like weddings, claiming they're "funerals with cake". Nonetheless, he and his family attend, and it turns out it would have been better had they stayed away, as Tammy herself (who is secretly an agent of [[The Empire| the Federation]]) is using it as a sting operation to arrest them.

* Iago is the [[Token Evil Teammate]] among the protagonists of ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]'', not to mention the rudest and most annoying. However, in one episode he opposed vehemently helping or trusting Caliph Kapok, simply because he was known to be a wizard. (Agrabah's experiences with wizards were unpleasant to say the least.) While such a suspicion at first seemed like [[Fantastic Racism| unfair stereotyping]], Iago had a valid point here, because Kapok was as evil as any other wizard they'd known.

* Sebastian from ''[[The Little Mermaid]]''; when he sang "Under the Sea" in an attempt to persuade Ariel to stay put, his true motive was to prevent ''him'' from getting in trouble, and a lot of bad things could have been avoided had he just kept his trap shut. Still, you can't deny that, being a crab, he was once of the few undersea denizens who could walk on land, and had seen enough of the human world to make a comparison. Plus, his statement that "the human world is a mess" is something quite a few viewers can agree with.
