* In the ''LeftBehind'' books, after Carpathia's resurrection, the standard greeting becomes "He is risen," with the response being "he is risen indeed": the "he" refers to Carpathia. The Christians reclaim the greeting (since it was originally the Paschal greeting), placing a slight emphasis on the "he" to indicate that they are referring to Jesus instead of Carpathia. This allows the Christians to interact with the rest of the world without drawing suspicion to themselves, while at the same time not violating their beliefs.
* ''{{Dune}}''. In the greenhouse room Jessica finds a note from Lady Fenring, a fellow Bene Gesserit. The last line of the message is "On that path lies danger", a secret warning code that there was a hidden message nearby. Jessica finds the hidden message as a series of dots on the underside of a nearby leaf.

* In ''JasonAndTheArgonauts'', Jason tells a camp's general that he is visiting Thessaly to reclaim his rightful throne from Pelias, who had [[TheUsurper usurped]] it twenty years before. The general tells Jason, "When your father defended his throne, no man fought harder than I." Of course, the general is [[KingIncognito secretly Pelias himself]], so the second meaning is, in a sense, "truer" than the seemingly straightforward one (he fought hard enough to ''win'', after all).

* ''HowIMetYourMother'': Robin follows her boyfriend Ted to a nightclub and asks the bouncer about him. We are shown the event, in which Ted, who has been acting unlike himself, is flirting with another woman and agreeing to go to her apartment. Ted is confronted by Marshall, who says "Aren't you afraid a certain someone will find out about this? This isn't you, Ted." [[spoiler: It turns out that Barney had been calling himself "Ted Mosby", so that's who the bouncer thought he was; we were shown Ted instead of Barney because that's how Robin would have imagined the bouncer's account. Meanwhile, Marshall's "certain someone" was the real Ted, and "This isn't you" was meant literally.]]

* ''MuchAdoAboutNothing'': Benedick thinks Beatrice is in love with him (she isn't), and when she is sent to bring him in to dinner he thinks she's sending him secret signals; he cites this trope by name.

** In ''The Moon's a Balloon'', David Niven mentions some officers of the Highland Light Infantry still doing that in the inter-war years, when he served with the regiment on Malta. It makes you wonder if the they were aware to whom the Stuart claim to the throne had at that point devolved - Prince Ruprecht of Bavaria, who had served as a General on the German side in World War I.
* Prussian Field Marshal Blücher, co-victor of the Battle of Waterloo, once bet other guests at a social function that he was able to kiss his own head. He then proceeded to kiss - his chief of staff, General Gneisenau.

* Mother Gothel of ''{{Tangled}}'' explains to Rapunzel that [[GirlInTheTower she needs to be kept safe and hidden in the tower]] because when she was a baby people tried to cut her hair and use its magic for themselves. It takes Rapunzel a long time before she realizes who the "people" were.

The way they got around was that in his own home, a noble with Jacobite sympathies could join in and even propose loyal toasts to the king by using special cups with the name "Charles Edward Stuart", or a shortened version thereof at the bottom, which would also be supplied to any other rebels around the table, but not the English visitors. So you could raise your cup and say: "To the king!" while looking straight at the name of the Jacobite Pretender.
** A variation was to have a glass of water on the table positioned so that the toasting glass passed directly above it, thereby toasting "the king across the water".
