Line 36:
* Something similar happens in the infamous French [[Made for TV Movie]] ''La Venus A Lulu''. Lulu, a nudist, is sleeping in a camper trailer when her husband stops to change a tire. Thinking she's arrived at the clothing-optional resort they are going to visit, she sleepwalks out into the countryside, where she falls back asleep. She spends the rest of the film [[Naked People Are Funny|hiding from people in the altogether]] (with a plotting little boy acting like he doesn't understand her pleas for clothes) while her mere presence in the village advances the plot -- namely, the little boy finally grows up, the village baker finally works things out with his wife, etc., etc. Oh, and [[Scenery Censor]] is completely and utterly averted.
* There's a scene in ''[[Yi Yi]]'' in which a man is locked out of his house in his underwear after an argument with his wife, and he has to stay overnight at his former girlfriend's place (who relished the irony).
* This happens to Donna Reed in ''[[ItsIt's a Wonderful Life]]''.
* In ''[[Roxanne]]'', Roxanne gets locked outside in her bathrobe, but her bathrobe is caught in the door. She has to go for help naked. She is briefly seen [[Hand or Object Underwear|covering her breasts and crotch with her arm and hand]].
* [[The Movie]] of ''[[CharliesCharlie's Angels]]''.
* Not socially awkward, but in the ''[[League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]]'' film, the resident Invisible Man meets the rest of the team outside of a cave in Siberia then cuts short their questions with "And might I remind you, I'm naked in the snow!" before heading into the cave.
* '80s Hongkong farce where two <s>horndogs</s> professional con artists not only ''fail'' to get into this woman's pants, but wind up ''outside in just their boxers'' And when they demand to be let back in:
Line 61:
{{quote| '''Face:''' So here I am stark naked, locked out of my quarters, running around the corridors looking for a towel, a rag, anything, and I turn the corner and bump right into the executive officer. He has about the same sense of humor as a Wookie with a rash. So I throw my best salute and say, "Major, I regret to report only partial success with the Personal Cloaking Device."}}
** The best part of it is when the XO responds with something about how he should go and cover up the project's "shortcomings".
* Griffin, the title character of [[HGH. G. Wells]]' ''[[The Invisible Man (Literaturenovel)|The Invisible Man]]'', is on the run from the law in the snowy English countryside. The poor man [[Invisible Streaker|can't put on clothing]], or people will notice him, leaving him literally out in the cold.
* Erotic author Lia Anderssen has this as a [[Author Appeal|reoccurring theme]] in all her books. Every single one of her novels involves a heroine losing her clothing, being trapped outside, and quickly blackmailed into a situation where she never gets clothing back.
* ''[[The Time Travelers Wife]]''. Considering Henry can't take anything with him when he (involuntarily) time travels, including clothes, this happens to him on a regular basis.
Line 78:
* On ''[[Gossip Girl]]'', Jenny [[Attempted Rape|gets even with Chuck]] during a [[Masquerade Ball]] by making him think she wants to sleep with him. Instead he ends up locked out on a roof in just his underwear. Chuck, being Chuck, seems to be impressed rather than angry.
{{quote| '''Chuck:''' Little Jenny Humphrey manages to get my pants off and have me not enjoy it. Quite the accomplishment.}}
* On ''[[30 Rock (TV)|30 Rock]]'', Jenna tried to get revenge on Frank and Toofer in the same manner as the ''Gossip Girl'' example. Frank fell for it, but Toofer was [[Genre Savvy]].
* In ''[[How I Met Your Mother (TV)|How I Met Your Mother]]'', Barney, Ted and Lily all try to sleep with their respective partners/one-night-stands by pulling a move known as 'the Naked Man', in which they wait naked for their target, who is then compelled to have sex with them. Ted and Lily both succeed... and Barney is kicked out of his hook-up's apartment completely naked, in the middle of the night, in the streets of New York. He actually has an opportunity to put some clothes on when he comes across a rack of on-sale suits on the street, but deems them too low-quality, preferring to remain naked.
* In one episode of ''[[Mad About You]]'', Jamie was wearing a towel in a Women's Gym locker room. Another woman gave her the wrong directions and she walked out the fire exit. Meanwhile, Paul was experamenting with Viagra. And for some reason they decided to meet at the top of the Empire State Building.
* Jeremy from ''[[Misfits]]''. He's sort of a werewolf (okay...he doesn't change physically into a wolf, he changes ''mentally'' into a ''dog'', so even if he could possibly be classified as a werewolf he's still [[Super Loser|the lamest one who ever lived]]) and he wakes up naked in the street on a regular basis. Sadly, he gets found by his exceptionally unsympathetic step-son:
{{quote| '''Nathan:''' George Michael gets away with this shit, but he used to be in ''Wham!'' Who are YOU?!}}
* In one episode of ''[[Sex and Thethe City]]'', Samantha decides to spice things up with her firefighter boyfriend by [[Making Love in All Thethe Wrong Places|having sex in the fire engine bay]]. Mid-coitus, the company responds to a call, leaving Samantha exposed with the bay door open and the inside doors locked.
 
 
Line 102:
 
== Video Games ==
* In ''[[Paper Mario (Video Gamefranchise)|Paper Mario]],'' this is how Mario first meets party member Kooper the Koopa. An army of [[Small Annoying Creature|Fuzzies]] have invaded Koopa Village, and they've stolen Kooper's shell. He hides behind a bush until you reclaim it for him, at which point he joins you.
 
 
== Web Comics ==
* Happens to Ethan in ''[[Ctrl +Alt +Del]]'', after he attempts to surprise his then girlfriend Lilah following her tournament. When she sees he's been wandering around naked, it makes her angry enough to go from losing to crushing the competition.
* Deliberately invoked by Ed Lincoln against his sister in ''[[Between Failures]]''. When she makes off with his DS, he chases her out of the apartment and refuses to let her back in until she "relinquishes her hostage". She relents when the awkward neighbor guy gets a photo of her in nothing but her panties.
* [http://www.mezzacotta.net/garfield/?comic=689 This] ''[[Square Root of Minus Garfield]]'' strip.
* Chapter 10 of ''[[Dungeons and Denizens (Webcomic)|Dungeons and Denizens]]'' features a subplot about Min and Gazdar having respawned in Seidistika's office [[Naked Onon Revival|without clothes]], and trying to get back to their rooms wearing only [[Modesty Bedsheet|Modesty Bedsheets]].
 
 
Line 117:
* This apparently happened to Apu off camera in ''[[The Simpsons]]'' episode "The Day the Violence Died". It apparently got him arrested, but {{spoiler|two kids called Lester and Elisa (who creepily resemble the original drawings of Bart and Lisa) got him out}}.
** In the episode "Natural Born Kissers", Marge and Homer end up in this situation after engaging in some al fresco "snuggling" to spice up their sex life.
* Referenced in the ''[[Animaniacs (Animation)|Animaniacs]]'' song "A Quake, a Quake":
{{quote| I ran outside with neighbors, their faces filled with shock<br />
Mostly 'cause I'm standing there in nothing but my socks. }}
Line 124:
* ''[[Code Lyoko]]'' has Season 4 episode "Bad Connection" starting with Ulrich locked outside of his room in nothing save for a [[Modesty Towel|bath towel]].
* Happens in ''[[Ed Edd and Eddy]]'' in the episode "Pop Goes the Ed" when they're trapped in a kiddie pool at a party after the bathing suits fly off
* In the "Flight as a Feather" episode of ''[[The Mask (Animationanimation)|The Mask]]'' a crazed stripper, Cookie BaBoom, who had an affair with Mayor Tilton, tries to blow him up with dynamite strapped to her body, which the Mask foils by yanking it off while sending her into a swirl spin. When the cops come for the Mask, he stops Cookie's spinning and distracts the cops by exposing her very attractive nude body.
* An episode of ''[[Jimmy Two -Shoes]]'' had Jimmy taking advantage of the town's [[Temporary Blindness]] to do whatever he wanted, which included skinny dipping in the towns fountain. Guess when the blindness wore off.
