Line 57:
*** '''''YES!!!!!!!!!'''''
* In the ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' AU ''[[1983 Doomsday Stories]],'' it's revealed that Sopron is this for Austria, considering that {{spoiler|he's the father, with Hungary being her mother}}.
* This is one of the reasons Rei and Asuka give to Ranma to convince him to make love to them in male form for the first time in chapter 17 of the ''[[Ranma ½]]/[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' crossover ''[[The Wild Horse Thesis]]'' -- that if he does get one or both of them pregnant, and they survive SEELE's upcoming attack only for him to be returned to his original timeline, they'll still have "a little piece" of him with them.
* In the ''[[RWBY]]'' fic ''[[Relic of the Future]]'', Winter Schnee arranges a [[Three-Way Sex|three-way assignation]] between Raven Branwen, herself, and her fiancé Jaune Arc in the last weeks of Jaune's life for this very reason
== Film ==
Line 64 ⟶ 65:
* ''[[A Nightmare on Elm Street|A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child]]''. Incidentally, the pregnancy (which allows Kruger to attack through the unborn child's dreams) is indirectly responsible for Dan's death.
* ''[[Austin Powers]]'', the supposed reason why Scott was created. It would later turn out to be not totally true.
* ''[[Candyman|Candyman: Farewell to The Flesh]]''. Paul dies, but not before leaving Annie a parting gift.
** The [[Candyman]] himself, whose death (after impregnating the daughter of a wealthy landowner) qualifies as [[Nightmare Fuel]].
* ''[[The Terminator]]''; Kyle Reese dies after impregnating Sarah Connor, enabling her to give birth to John Connor.
Line 71 ⟶ 72:
* ''[[Planet Terror]]'' ("I told you, I never miss.")
* ''[[Premonition]]'': Apparently this is supposed to make the film's ending uplifting rather than horribly depressing.
* ''[[Inside]]''. As depressing as it is, it only begins this way and gets much, much worse.
* In ''[[Taking Lives]]'', after taking out the serial killer, lead detective Anjelina Jolie and star witness Ethan Hawke decide to resolve the sexual tension that been burning between them for the whole friggin' movie. Of course, the next morning, Jolie discovers that the real killer is the guy she'd just been sweating all night long. The killer goes on the run, leaving Det. Jolie in the family way from their one night stand. Of course, {{spoiler|it turns out the pregnancy was really faked with a prosthetic belly, to lure the killer into a trap.}}
* ''[[Revelation]]'' sees our hero and heroine searching for an ancient box containing the nails that held Jesus on the cross, while trying to evade an evil cabal. Upon finding the box, the cute but bookish heroine notices it has a male/female symbol on the front and has a sudden urge to "love thine neighbor", of course the guy, whom she's known for all of 12 hours, has no problem in putting off their escape from the baddies for a couple minutes while he takes care of business. The goons show up literally as he finishes and he soon dies while escaping, after losing the box. It turns out {{spoiler|that he's the descendant of Jesus and his last act was to put the second coming (get it?) in the heroine's belly.}} Meanwhile, {{spoiler|an evil bishop finds the nails and uses the residual Jesus DNA to create a clone which turns out to be the antichrist.}} Yeah, it's messed up.
Line 97 ⟶ 98:
* This is the surprise twist at the end of ''Crush'': Kate is revealed to be pregnant with Jed's baby. It is the only reason the movie avoids an unbelievably [[Downer Ending]].
* ''People Will Talk'', this is the basis for the plot with the added complication that they never married. When the doctor tells her about her pregnancy, she is so distraught about having to break her father's heart and admit to premarital sex that she attempts suicide. The doctor tells her that there was a mix-up with the tests and she wasn't pregnant, then proposes so that when she does have the baby, there will be nothing shameful (except the fact that she will give birth about seven months after the wedding, which no one seems to notice.)
== Literature ==
Line 206:
* Singer [[Roza Rymbaeva]] was seven months pregnant with her second child when her husband suddenly died of a heart attack.
* Broadway actress and singer [[La Chanze]] was eight months pregnant when her husband was killed in the 9/11 attacks.
** Speaking of 9/11, People Magazine recently did an article on [https://web.archive.org/web/20130928025417/http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20524377,00.html children born after their fathers had perished in the attacks.]
* Ethel Kennedy had her 11th child six months after RFK's assassination.
* Buddy Holly's wife was pregnant with their first child in 1959, when an airplane carrying Holly, Richie Valens, and the Big Bopper crashed in Iowa and killed everyone onboard. In a sad subversion of the trope, she miscarried soon after his death.
