* ''[[The Angry Beavers]]'' "Zooing Time": The supposedly brainwashed Norbert is genuinely disappointed at being rescued from a zoo, because he actually likes it, but Daggett thinks that he's saying that because he was brainwashed. (And he's taking responsibility for getting Norb sent to the zoo to begin with.)

* An episode of ''[[Kids Next Door]]'' features Numbah 1 infiltrating a college where they remove kids' brains. He is subsequently captured but it turns out that {{spoiler|the villain made up the "removing brains" thing to lure Numbah 1 (who doesn't get [[Brain Freeze]]) there so he could have a test subject for his perfect snow cone machine}}. Numbah 1 has no objections. His team soon bust in to rescue him, getting him horribly hurt in the process, while he begs to be taken back.

* Same goes in ''[[Kids Next Door]]'', "Operation: C.O.L.L.E.G.E.", with Nigel participating in snow cone research.

** He never got to tell the man {{spoiler|it was the perfect snow cone formula he wanted to make, the minute he finished it, after the man had been working on it for months but had highly sensitive teeth and gums and got brain freeze every time he tried his creations.}}

* ''[[Lilo and Stitch]]'': In one episode, Lilo's friend Keoni has a crush on Pleakly (in his horrible disguise as a human woman). Lilo, Stitch, and Jumba are quick to blame the [[Monster of the Week]], but no, he ''actually does'' have a crush on Pleakly. (For context: Pleakley has green skin and one eye.)
