* Occurs in ''WesternAnimation/{{Phineas and Ferb Star Wars}}''. Phineas saves Candace from a {{Literal Cliffhanger}}.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'' episode "Power Surge]]", when Scott is trying to talk Jean down, he tells her that he knows her better than anyone ever has or ever will, and he knows she can do this. Later, returned to normal, Jean casually comments, "That's what I like about you, Scott. You know me better than anyone else ever has or ever will."

* ''Disney/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' has at the end Helga Sinclair and Lyle Rourke escaping in a hot air balloon with a priceless treasure they stole. In a bid to go faster, they start tossing stuff they don't need off the edge to decrease weight, and Lyle [[InTheBack throws Helga off the balloon]] with the line "Nothing personal." She survives the fall, and with one last effort she takes a signal flare (or a hand cannon, but the former is more implied) and shoots a hole right in the balloon in revenge. [[TheDogBitesBack "Nothing Personal."]]

-->'''Oliver:''' Well, it's easier than you think. (pauses)

* ''Film/BatmanReturns'':

* In ''Film/{{Goldeneye}}'', it's [[Franchise/JamesBond]] and the Bond Girl of the film Natalya who get to do this to one another even though they're not directly conversing when they do so. About 2/3 of the way through the film aboard the converted missile train, the BigBad has Natalya as a hostage and threatens to kill her if Bond doesn't surrender ("Two targets, time enough for one shot. The girl, or the mission?"); he replies, "Kill her. She means nothing to me." Both of them (along with the BigBad) end up escaping alive. Near the end of the film the roles are reversed in Cuba, where the BigBad, upon finding out Natalya had managed to change the access codes to the KillSat they needed for their plan and had set on a path to deorbit and burn up in the atmosphere, gets desperate and holds Bond at gunpoint to get her to tell them how to regain control; she gets to reply, "Go ahead. Shoot him. He means nothing to me."

* In ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'', Leia tells Han, "I love you," to which he answers, "I know." In ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', Han tells Leia, "I love you," to which she replies, "I know."
** This one's made even better because the original "I know" was an ad lib by Creator/HarrisonFord.

* In the made-for-TV movie ''El Diablo'':

-->'''Woody''': Hey, Buzz! You're flying!
-->'''Buzz''': This isn't flying! This is falling with style!
-->'''Woody''': To infinity, and beyond!

-->'''Batty:''' Are you sure?
-->'''Zach:''' Positive.
-->'''Batty:''' Only fools are positive.
-->'''Zach:''' Are you sure?
-->'''Batty:''' Positive. [beat] OOOH!! I fell for it!

-->'''Personage:'''Are you following me?\\

[[folder: Comic Books ]]

* In ''Webcomic/RiceBoy'', during an encounter with a strange personage:
-->'''Rice Boy:''' "Are you following me?"
-->'''Personage:''' "No. I am going where you are going."
-->'''Rice Boy:''' "I see. Where will I go next?"
-->'''Personage:''' "Into [[GhibliHills Skortch]]."
** Later, lost in the mountains:
-->'''Personage:'''"Are you following me?"
-->'''Rice Boy:''' "No. I am going where you are going."
-->'''Personage:''' "I see. Where will I go next?"
-->'''Rice Boy:''' "To the home of [[AncientKeeper Parod]]."
** This means that [[spoiler:Rice Boy has passed Parod's SecretTestOfCharacter and is allowed to see his face.]]

[[folder: Live Action TV ]]

* In ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'', Adam was known to end any order he gave to Samus with "Any objections, Lady?". Whatever the fans may have thought about him[[spoiler:, especially compared to his ''Fusion'' persona]], at one point he goes missing with the Deleter presumably on his tail. At one point, Samus reaches a bridge, only for someone on the other side to raise it and render her unable to cross it... whereupon she decides to self-authorize the Space Jump and Screw Attack.

'''Examples:'''

** In the first movie, an exasperated Woody screams, "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Are. A. TOY!"]]...You are a child's plaything!" at Buzz while he still believes he's a space ranger. Then, in ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'', Buzz says the same thing to Woody when he's reluctant to come home.

* In ''Film/{{Sabrina}}'', when the newspaper shares a story about David and Elizabeth becoming engaged, David and Linus have this exchange:

* Don't forget the ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' trilogy, where Doc is constantly confused by Marty's use of the term "heavy," while Doc is always exclaiming "Great Scott!" In the [[Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII third film]], when Marty realizes he could be shot by Buford Tannen instead of Doc, Marty instead exclaims "Great Scott!" and Doc falls right into place, saying the situation is "heavy."

* Happens in ''TalesOfSymphoniaDawnOfTheNewWorld'' with the whole "Light frog"/"Nazdrovie" thing.

* In ''RiceBoy'', during an encounter with a strange personage:

* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'': Buzz thinks he can fly, but Woody calls it "falling with style." Then at the end, Buzz glides and saves Woody with ''spectacular'' style, and they switch up their roles.
** Also, between this and ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'', "You are a child's plaything. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Are. A. TOY!"]]
** And ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'' has "You have saved our lives, we are eternally grateful".

* Occurs in the''Series/{{Phineas and Ferb}}'' ''Film/{{Star Wars}}'' {{Crossover}} special. Phineas saves Candace from a {{Literal Cliffhanger}}.

* Used as an act of revenge by Debra in ''Series/{{Everybody Loves Raymond}}''. The episode "Getting Even" in which Ray embarrasses Debra at Ally's school's auction. Ray tries to encourage Debra that he was just being funny, but Debra grudgingly dismisses this and says "Don't tell me how to feel!". Ray then thinks that Debra is going to "get" him and spends the entire episode filled with paranoia. When he finally admits to being paranoid, Debra tells him not to be and he says that same line.

--->'''Phineas:'''Wait! Why are you helping me?
--->'''Candace:'''You were in trouble. I couldn't just leave you hanging.
