* ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'': "[[Recap/CodenameKidsNextDoorS4E11OperationMAURICE Operation: M.A.U.R.I.C.E.]]" reveals that certain KND operatives are allowed to keep their memories past their thirteenth birthdays and work as teenage spies for the KND. This includes the titular character, Maurice (the former Numbuh 9), and [[spoiler:Chad Dickson (the former Numbuh 274), who staged his acrimonious defection to give himself a stronger cover]].

SubTrope of LivingADoubleLife and UndercoverAsLovers. Add a sprinkle of NeuroVault, and you get the ManchurianAgent. Compare with CopiedTheMoralsToo, where a copy of a heroic character is created (often to be a spy on the heroes) but is unable to complete its mission because it received the heroic character's morals as well as their appearance. Contrast the DiplomaticCoverSpy, who work in the sending country's embassy and don't need this much elaborate backstory to do their work because they have DiplomaticImpunity. (That's Official Cover, as in, you are a government official and entitled to the diplomatic protections that are afforded to such persons - but have correspondingly less freedom to do human intelligence work, because the other side have almost certainly worked out what you really are ''long'' before you entered their country.)

*''Fanfic/TarkinsFist'': Major Eritech plays the part of a normal naval bridge commander when he is really an agent of the Imperial Security Bureau. The Major's dual role provides a second level of scrutiny for the ISB. Each ship in the fleet has an "official" ISB presence designed to ensure the loyalty of a ship's crew to the Empire. Eritech, playacting as a normal bridge officer, is free to move about the rank and file naval officers as one of them, in the hopes of uncovering any potential disloyalty that might be kept from the official ISB agents. When the official ISB presence onboard is surreptitiously killed, Eritech remains the only Palpatine loyalist left on the ship in a position to deal with the newly found "traitors" of Tarkin's Fist.
