** In ''Five Go Adventuring Again'': Lampshaded when the artists have broken in the door to their bedroom, which was mysteriously locked from inside.

* SneakyDeparture: This happens in many of the books, most often by George.
** ''Five on a Treasure Island'': At the very beginning, George has sneaked away when her cousins are due to arrive, so they do not see her until the following morning.
** ''Five Go Adventuring Again'': When the Five plan to explore the Secret Way, they tell the adults that they plan to do lessons by themselves (as their tutor is ill in bed), and wait until Uncle Quentin is busy digging away snow, and Aunt Fanny is talking to Joanna in the kitchen, before they make their escape.
** ''Five Run Away Together'': George plans to sneak away to Kirrin Island, in case the Sticks poison Timmy. She refuses to tell the others about her "secret, private plan" in case they try to stop her (she even says so). When she does sneak out, Julian intercepts her, and persuades her that it would be best if they all went.
** ''Five Go To Smuggler's Top'': George sneaks away from the other children to embark on a reckless plan of invading Mr Lenoir's study to try to rescue Timmy. The others realise she is missing after a few minutes. [[spoiler: Also, Block regularly sneaks away from the house by pretending to be ill, and leaving a SleepingDummy in his bed.]]
** ''Five On Kirrin Island Again'': George rows to Kirrin Island in the middle of the night, to try to rescue Timmy, when he does not appear in her father's tower, after he had agreed to take Timmy there.
** ''Five Go Off to Camp'': Julian and Dick sneak out of their tent at night. George suspects they might do this, and sets a trap for them of string across the entrance to their tent, tied to her big toe; but they sneak out of the sides of the tent.
** ''Five Get Into Trouble'': With the help of the other children, Richard escapes from Owl's Dene by hiding in the boot of the villains' car. The adults only notice that he is missing when Rooky suddenly demands Richard, so that he can "learn him a few lessons".
** ''Five Fall Into Adventure'': Played with, in that when George is abducted at night, Jo sets things up to make the others believe George sneaked out early in the morning, so they would not miss her for a while. The Five and Joan often suspect that Jo might sneak away at any moment, with her habit of suddenly appearing and disappearing.
** ''Five go to Demon's Rocks'': [[spoiler: After the villains Ebby and Jacob have locked the Five in the lighthouse, the Five alert the village to their plight by sounding the lighthouse bell, and lighting the lamp. Ebby and Jacob sneak away in the night, because they are afraid of the people of the village.]]

''Five fall into Adventure'' begins with Aunt Fanny and Uncle Quentin taking a proper holiday in Spain, refusing to tell anybody the address for a few days. This comes at a time when there is a lot of interest from the press in Uncle Quentin's work, and while they are away, some of his papers are stolen, and nobody can contact them. A policeman mutters that it's a pity when people leave things in an ordinary safe, and then go off without leaving an address. A similar situation happens in ''Five have Plenty of Fun'', when Fanny and Quentin go away for two days, then send a telegram (with no address) to say that they will not return for a week.
