'''Basic Trope''': A ShowWithinAShow that has more mature content than the work itself.
* '''Straight''': On an episode of "Alice and Bob: The Series", the titular characters mention wanting to see an R-rated thriller movie called "The Troper's Tale".

* '''Justified''':
** The only thing young Alice and Bob know about "The Troper's Tale" is [[ForbiddenFruit they aren't allowed to watch it]].
** If an adult is the one watching something for mature audiences: Just because they're an adult in a kids' series doesn't mean everything they watch has to be appropriate for the target audience.

** "The Troper's Tale" is given its R-rating for no reason.

* '''Played for Laughs''': Alice and Bob try to sneak into the movie theater using a TotemPoleTrench.
* '''Played for Drama''': Alice and Bob watch the movie and quickly find that it was rated R for a good reason, and are disturbed by what they've seen.
