* ''[[Its Pat]]'': When asked if Pat has a banana in a pocket [[Or Are You Just Happy to See Me?]], Pat simply whips out a banana and says "I, uh, have a banana in my pocket."
* ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'': "Is that a rabbit in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" Rabbit, natch.
** It should be noted that the rabbit is very obvious and her voice makes it abundantly clear it's sarcasm. Eddie immediately ask her to "cut the comedy".
* An interesting use in ''[[Ace Ventura]] Pet Detective'': First Ace feels what he thinks is a gun while Lois Einhorn tries to seduce him, and points it out ("Your gun is digging into my hip."). But later, when he learns [[Gender Bender|who Einhorn really is]], Ace gets promptly [[Squick|squicked]] and begins to cry "It wasn't a gun! ''It wasn't a gun!''", with the Boy George song "[[All There Is to Know About "The Crying Game"|The Crying Game]]" playing in the background.

* Cawti, visiting [[Dragaera|Vlad Taltos]] in his bedroom, noticed a bulge in the blanket and asked, "Is that a knife in your hand, or are you happy to see me?" Vlad answered truthfully, "Both."
* In a moment that's a beautiful microcosm of the series of as a whole, Elaine, [[Dresden Files|Harry's]] former girlfriend that he spent most of his life thinking he'd killed, returns suddenly with a "Hello Harry, is that a wand in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" Magic, noir mystery, Harry being a nerd, and Jim Butcher's fantastic sense of humor, all in one line.

* Used in ''[[Pushing Daisies]]'', though without the exact line. After {{spoiler|Olive kissed Ned}} in a previous episode, Olive tries to make light of the awkwardness between them. When they bump against each other, she says "This is... what it is, isn't it? Unless that's not a rolling pin under your apron." Ned, of course, reaches under his apron and produces a rolling pin. Olive is ''quite'' the optimist, it seems.
* Half-used in an episode of ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' where Carter and O'Neill are lying together for warmth.

{{quote| '''Woman''': Is that a gun in your pocket or are you happy to see me?<br />

* Lampshaded slightly in the series ''[[Alien Nation (TV series)|Alien Nation]]''; a neighbor of Detective Matt Sikes gives him a plate of poached trout for dinner, in gratitude for an act of kindness that Matt didn't remember performing. He then visits Newcomer neighbor (and inevitable romantic interest) Cathy, who greets him teasingly at the door; "Well, Matt, is that a fish in your hand or am I happy to see you...no, that didn't come out right."
* Subverted in an episode of the short-lived series ''[[The Commish]]''. In a dream episode set in an old crime-noir setting, the main character pulls a gun out of his pocket. To which, the femme fatale responds, "That was a gun? I thought you were just happy to see me!".
* Happens in ''[[Bones]]'' when Booth and the title character go to a strip club, and the woman that they're questioning gives Booth a lap dance. He insists, "That's my gun." He does, however, send Bones away at the end of the scene.

** Kelly once had to play the role of [[Madame Curie]] and assumed she was some hooker but Bud quickly explained who Madame Curie was. The mistake wasn't mentioned during the rest of the episode but [[Brick Joke|was referenced to]] when Kelly's version of Madame Curie asked somebody if that was radium in his pocket of if he was happy to see her.

* [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20051026 Referenced] in ''[[Girl Genius]]'', when a still-rather-innocent Agatha portrays a [[Femme Fatale|her mother]] in a play, having practiced her lines out of context: "--and when I asked him if that was a ''wrench'' in his pocket--"
** The play in question being "''[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20051017 The Socket Wench of Prague]''" and is [[Take Our Word for It|well-known for being risqué]] -- the circus wanted to leave town quickly, and suggested using it to get thrown out, until they found that the prince wanted to see that specific play.
