* In ''[[Friends]]'' episode "The One With The Blind Dates", Phoebe and Joey scheme to get Rachel and Ross back together by intentionally setting them up on horrible dates so that they will want to get back with each other.

* Internet version: An episode of ''[[NCIS]]'' has as its B-plot the saga of McGee's new online girlfriend--whogirlfriend—who is actually Tony using a fake screenname. The idea was to get McGee good and attached, then suddenly turn sour and eventually break up with him, so that Tony could have a good laugh at McGee being heartbroken. Only [[A Simple Plan|it goes wrong]]; when Tony turns on the shrew, McGee loves her more than ever, baffling the hell out of Tony. It eventually turned out that McGee wasn't fooled, but figured he could wind Tony up by playing along.
