Line 142:
*** Well really, why didn't Bob tell him Batman had one of those... things?
* Subverted in pretty much the only clever moment in the ''[[Dungeons and Dragons (film)|Dungeons and Dragons]]'' film. Damodar begs Profion to take out the parasite in his head as promised, and the spell Profion casts knocks him away and to the floor, apparently killing him. However, Damodar then gets right back up as the parasite leaves.
** Though in the [[
* In ''[[Angels and Demons]]'', [[The Dragon]] is ''retired with prejudice'' after having dealt with {{spoiler|or tried to kill, in the fourth case anyway}} the four cardinals. This is especially conspicuous after it was revealed his client institution was a long-term repeat customer.
{{quote|''You know, when they call me, and they '''all''' call me, it is so important to them that I know what they ask is the Lord's will.''}}
Line 311:
* At the end of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask]],'' the eponymous mask does this to the Skull Kid, whom it had been using as a host for most of the game. {{spoiler|But he gets better at the end.}}
* In [[Metal Gear Solid]], Liquid Snake says this to Solid Snake word for word when Snake finally (unknownly) activates Metal Gear Rex. Then he tries to gas him.
** The Patriots do this in [[Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty]] with pretty much every single character, such as deactivating Richard Ames pacemaker nanomachines for him to act out FOXDIE (although the fact that his actions mentioned in In the Darkness of Shadow Moses: The Unofficial Truth were mentioned, and resulted in the incident being exposed among others, may also qualify as a very subtle version of [[You Have Failed Me]]), they engineered President Johnson's betrayal and later capture by Solidus for the S3 plan, and then had Ocelot execute him, and then had Ocelot attempt to execute Solidus, Fortune, Snake, and Raiden aboard Arsenal Gear with RAY.
** Coldman was implied to have intended to kill off the Peace Sentinels with the Peace Walker project's completion, especially if it succeeded, as soon as it was done. Zadornov himself nearly did this onto Big Boss, and in fact, had the MSF and FSLN not stormed the room and captured Zadornov, he pretty much would have done this.
* In ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'': Following {{spoiler|Sora's [[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}, the game's [[Big Bad]], {{spoiler|Ansem, appears out of nowhere and is about to pull this one on Kairi, but Riku holds him back long enough to let her escape with the others}}.
Line 430:
'''Buzz Lightyear:''' ''For evil, maybe. But not for good!'' }}
* In the 1992 ''[[X-Men (animation)|X-Men]]'' cartoon, Zaladane says exactly this to Sauron in the episode "Savage Land, Strange Heart Part 2." It doesn't work out well for her.
