Line 55:

* Used in ''[[Look Who's Talking]]'' when Mollie starts dating several men and discarding them by imagining how they would behave with her son, Mikey, judging on how they treat the waiter.

* Alex O'Connell from the most recent ''[[The Mummy Trilogy]] The Mummy]]'' shows us his basic decency by back-slapping with his Chinese laborers and offering bits of encouragement in their native tongue.

* In ''The Whole Ten Yards'', [[Bruce Willis ~~(Creator)~~]]'s hitman with a heart of gold beats a man senseless for berating his waitress in a restaurant (after, surprisingly, he tries talking to the guy about it calmly), then tells the man's kid to always be kind to people serving you food, and to eat his vegetables.

** Of course, in the previous movie ''The Whole Nine Yards'', he threatened to violently murder the waitress who took his hamburger order down wrong. This might have gone to show he'd [[Character Development|become a more decent person]] in the interim.
