* If [[Batman]] gets caught by his Rogues Gallery, expect this trope. Batman does not beg for mercy, and will be thinking how to escape The same goes for anyone in the Bat-family.
** [https://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/8655620.html#cutid1 One mainstream story written by Paul Dini] had Joker kidnap Tim Drake when he was Robin after "rescuing" him from a gang fight because it was Christmas, strapping him in the front seat of a stolen car while [[Bound and Gagged]] with appropriate ornaments as he goes around using the vehicle to cause havoc in Gotham. [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking| And he does this while leaving the car temperature at 9092 degrees]]. Tim is horrified to realize he murdered two parents and left their smiling bodies in the backseat, but tries to think outside the box, digging into the front seat with his bound hands for any stray toys or broken CDs as a family would have. Joker then casually pulls the toy car from Tim, saying he left it there to entertain him. He removes Tim's gag, expecting him to beg for the lives of passerby he's about to run over; Tim responds by defiantly quoting the Marx brothers, entertaining Joker so much that he actually spares the shoppers. Tim proceeds to use an argument about which movie the line came from to stall, because the hot temperature made his hands sweaty enough to slip out of his bound Robin gloves. Then he, in his own words, "Goes Batman on [Joker's] ass" after punching him in the face.
