* Deconstructed in ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender''. Azula does have an actual friendship with Mai and Ty Lee stemming from childhood, but due to her obsession with power and control, forces them to comply with whatever she wants, and not so subtly threatening them if they don't fall in line. In fact, during her second scene with Ty Lee (who just declined Azula's request to join her on her mission to hunt Zuko and Iroh to stay in the circus), while she's watching her performance, has Ty Lee's safety net set on fire, and then releases a menagerie of dangerous animals, and later implying that she'll continue to do this if Ty Lee doesn't join her; Ty Lee gets the message. [[spoiler: This ultimately comes to a head in Book 3, when Mai chooses to save Zuko (whom she loves) over serving Azula, bluntly telling her that she loves Zuko more than she fears her; when Azula attempts to attack Mai, she's in turn disabled by Ty Lee. This betrayal later becomes the catalyst for Azula's eventual mental collapse.]]

Added DiffLines:

** Due to Peter Griffin basically being a selfish child in the body of a grown man (particularly in later seasons) anytime something different catches his attention, or he develops a new interest, he will readily turn on his "friends" for his own whims. To list off some examples, he brutally steals a dog rope from Brian resulting in Brian breaking his own face (later half-heartedly returning it when he realizes it doesn't do anything) and refusing to help afterwards, turns into Quagmire's abusive pimp after Quagmire decides to become a gigolo, steals Joe's wheelchair so he can get disability perks, and tries to destroy Cleveland's marriage when Cleveland pushes him to spend more time with his wife.
