{{trope}}
Sometimes, [[Gollum Made Me Do It|Mr. Hyde's not interested in making]] [[Jekyll and Hyde|Dr. Jekyll]] do anything. He just needs a piece of information that he knows that Dr. Jekyll and all the other good guys have. Unfortunately, all of those good guys know that whatever Hyde's going to do with that information, [[Enemy Within|it's not going to be good for them]]. What's a poor [[Super
This when one part of a [[Split Personality]] intentionally tries to pretend to be the other half. Note that the two characters must be '''within one body''' in order for this trope to apply. Otherwise, it's [[Spot the Imposter]] or [[Twin Switch]].
Line 6:
In a way, this is perhaps the ultimate form of [[Spot the Imposter]], since there aren't even two bodies to let the others know that there definitely ''is'', in fact, an imposter. Just two minds, and if one mind has the other's mannerisms down pat, it can be very difficult for others to figure it out. The best way to beat it tends to be by [[Fighting From the Inside]] or noticing [[Something Only They Would Say]] or [[Something They Would Never Say]].

* At the end of ''[[MARDEK]]: Chapter 3'', when Rohoph becomes paranoid and decides that friends are a liability, he starts by brutally rejecting one of [[Spoony Bard|Elwyn's]] romantic attempts while she thought she was talking to Mardek. Of course, it only worked because his [[

Kokoro has no control over the transfers, and so in order to make Mayuzumi feel better, she pretends to be Satoru. Mayuzumi plays along, although at the end of the scene, she reveals that she knew it was Kokoro the whole time.
** Similarly, in Satoru's route, {{spoiler|it's implied that Keiko Inubushi has the entire time been allowing everyone to call her "Hotori," although she hasn't gone out of her way to imitate any of Hotori's mannerisms, mostly because she's never met her}}.

* An episode of ''[[X-Men Evolution]]'' uses this quite tragically. Professor X is called in to confront his unstable son David, better known to fans of the comics as Legion. {{spoiler|1=During a [[Battle in The Center of The Mind]]/[["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]], David's evil side masquerades as the real David. Professor X, unaware of this, seals away his son and his other personality, leaving his evil personality [[Ax Crazy|free to do as he pleases]].}}
* [[Sixth Ranger Traitor|William]] used it twice in season 4 of [[Code Lyoko]], with remarkable success each time.
