** A rather literal one happens when Little Walder Frey becomes TheSquire to [[BastardBastard Ramsey Bolton]]. He took to the lessons so well, he didn't manage to get to the "kill the mentor" stage; [[spoiler: as it turns out, aiming for monsterdom as a career when you have little native cunning means [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome somebody else with a bit more insight as to where this is going will have enough motive and ability to murder you, first]]. Most likely out of pre-emptive self-defense.]]

* ''FanFic/CindersAndAshesTheChroniclesOfKamenRiderDante'' has this trope deconstructed when Yudai, the understudy in question, tries to backstab his master Vega. Unfortunately, not only did Vega have the foresight to see this, given he knows Yudai has [[YouKilledMyFather all the reasons in the world]] to kill him, but with [[RefugeeFromTVLand him being aware that he was from a story]], he full on breaks the trope down to Yudai by telling him exactly what would have happened had he followed this trope to a T.
--> "''You're not the first Rider general who wants to overthrow their master and you will not be the last. Just as our organization will not be the last to inherit the will of Shocker. We're nothing more than archetypes given flesh. I know how your story will end. You will succeed in killing me, if you even get that far, but your victory will be short-lived and fruitless as you die at the hero's hands... Just like the generals that came before you and the generals who will come afterwards.''"
