Spoiled Sweet clean-up. In order to fit the archetype, the character must be priviledged, optimistic, naive, sheltered, etc. Examples \"s/he\'s rich but a decent person\" are misuse. Also, the TRS discussion leans towards agreement that this is a gendered trope (Always Female). Zero Context Example deleted.

*HeroicSacrifice
*HollywoodHomely: Mare Winningham as Mary Frances Bodine, and as Julia North in her body.
*IdentityAmnesia: Jack Bodine is convinced that his wife survived with this.
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Don North may come across as superficial and uncaring, but proves himself by persisting in his support of Julia's recovery.
*LossOfIdentity: A central theme of the story, and a source of angst for Julia.
*MedicalDrama
