Literal Split Personality: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Transformers]]: [[Transformers Film Series|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', Arcee is composed of three motorcycles. Each body has the same personality, though. In the comics, all speak at once, similar to ''[[Transformers Generation 1]]'' character Reflector.

* In ''[[Spy Kids]] 3: Game Over'', [[Big Bad|the Toymaker]] was advised by three holographic characters with his face: a [[Sociopathic Soldier]], a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] and a [[New Age Retro Hippie]].

 

 

* Kirk, in the ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series|Star Trek]]'' episode "The Enemy Within". However, the "evil" side proved to be the side with the strength to make tough decisions, proving that both halves are needed for the whole to work.

** And the seemingly meek, passive "good" side turns out to have more courage than the other, whose angry defiance hides terror of losing independent existence.

* In the ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]'' episode "Faces," B'Elanna Torres is split into her Klingon and human halves by the Vidiians: the Klingon is a barely contained rage factory, the human is a simpering wimp.

* A spell intended to separate Buffy's personality from her Slayer abilities in an episode of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' hits Xander instead, separating him into an "aggressive" Xander (charming, well-groomed, and confident; but hot-headed and impetuous) and a "passive" Xander (awkward, paranoid, and insecure; but with Xander's trademark sense of humor). Note that despite the negative Xander's suspicions, neither half is actually evil. Both Xanders also refer to "The Enemy Within" during the episode.

* In ''[[Calvin and Hobbes]],'' Calvin successfully clones only the ''good'' aspects of his personality with his trademark cardboard box technology. This leads to a lot of people cracking "you'd be a lot smaller if that were true," remarks. This is eventually subverted: {{spoiler|since even Calvin's best qualities are still inherently his own, the "good" clone threatens to clobber his creator, vanishing in a [[Puff of Logic]] for having done something evil.}}
