Line 6:
This can also be said to [[The Hero]] by well-intentioned but misguided [[Mentor|mentors]] trying to keep him or her [[Locked Out of the Loop]]. It might also be done to someone not in on the [[Masquerade]], making the motivation not so much their safety as protecting secrets.
 
The [[Trope Namer]] is Basil is Disney's ''[[The Great Mouse Detective]]'' to Olivia, which accomplishes the trope with a [[Gilligan Cut]]. Compare [[Just a Kid]] and [[Stay in Thethe Kitchen]], where someone is ordered to stay out of the conflict because of her gender rather than age.

* Corin in ''[[The Horse and His Boy]]'' sneaks into the battle he was told to stay out of. He beats up the dwarf assigned to keep an eye on him, disguises himself, and keeps out of sight until the battle starts, when he reasons everyone will be too busy to notice him.
Line 14:
* In ''[[The Last Battle]]'', King Tirian tries to send Eustace and Jill home after they release him and Jewel, before he and his allies go into battle against the Calormenes. Jill refuses, but she feels like Eustace ruins the drama of the conflict by pointing out that they have no way of getting back to their world even if they wanted to.
* Violet and Dash stow away on Helen's plane in ''[[The Incredibles]]'' -- they both claim it was the other's idea.
* Carl accidentally takes Russel along with him in ''[[Up (Filmanimation)|Up]]'' and realizes there's no way to get him home (although he contemplates using the [[Bedsheet Ladder]] to lower him to the ground, [[Crowning Moment of Funny|he concluses that isn't gonna work]]).
* Although Scrooge McDuck was only too eager to take his nephews along on his adventures in the comics, the triplets were sometimes the victims of this trope in ''[[Duck TalesDuckTales]]'', Webby even moreso:
{{quote| '''Webby:''' Please, [[Lampshade Hanging|no lectures about how dangerous this is]]. I'm coming with you, and that's final.<br />
'''Scrooge:''' Aye, I insist you come with me, Webbigail. [[Reverse Psychology|I could'na possibly trust you to stay here]].<br />
Line 26:
* Gosalyn repeatedly on ''[[Darkwing Duck]]''.
* Go ahead and just ''try'' to tell [[Harry Potter]] and his [[Power Trio]] to stay out of things and forget about the Sorceror's Stone, the Chamber of Secrets, Sirius Black, and the Order of the Phoenix. Just try...
* In ''[[Cloudy Withwith a Chance of Meatballs]]'', after Flint makes the plan to stop the Meateroid, [[Tagalong Kid|Brent]] asks what he can do. Flint makes him "President of the Back Seat," then heads out with Sam, but Brent is quick to follow.
