Line 103:
* In ''[[Men in Black (animation)|Men in Black]] The Series'', the very first episode. Kay gets kidnapped and cooked by aliens. He then re-appears and says that an old friend changed places with him (we then see his friend escaping from the aliens sound and safe). It was impossible for him to have changed places with his decoy, lampshaded by Jay asking WHEN did he get the time to use the decoy. The question was ([[Rule of Fun|of course]]) left unanswered.
* In the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' episode "The Spy Who Rooked Me", some Joes and a [[James Bond]]-esque agent are assigned to deliver a vial of extremely deadly nerve gas to a special facility for proper disposal. Naturally, COBRA sends troops after them to steal the vial. At the end of the episode, Dr. Mindbender takes the vial, but it breaks. Just as Flint prepares to do a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to give the others time to get away, the agent smugly explains that the vial contains soda, and they were a distraction to give another team time to deliver the real vial. As the Joes were not told about this, they were '''really''' angry that they went through all that fuss for nothing.
* In ''[[Harley Quinn (TV series)|Harley Quinn]]'' season 3 opener, Gordon and his men set a sting for Harley and Ivy at Arkham, having tricked the imprisoned Killer Shark and Clayface into sending them a message and assuming they will attempt a jailbreak. Harley does indeed attempt such, but convinces (likely bribes) the two porn actresses that depicted them in a movie to walk into the ambush (causing the police - who are fans - to swoon over them) as they take another entrance in.
