* An episode of ''[[Just Shoot Me]]'' inverted the SVU example above, with Elliot's brother having spent ''years'' posing as mentally retarded due to a head injury as a child to get out of having to support himself. He's outed only after Jack's foolishness causes a [[Rant-Inducing Slight]].
* Also inverted in an episode of ''[[The Mentalist]].''
 
=== Recorded and Stand Up Comedy ==
* The sketch "Le Trente-Huit Cunegonde", on ''Waiting for the Electrician or Someone Like Him'' by [[The Firesign Theatre]], describes a hippie-run future where drug use and rebellion are rigorously enforced by the Establishment. It opens with two police officers accosting a girl because she's not wearing a mini-skirt, and when they discover she doesn't have any drugs on her, they send her in for "re-grooving".
