* ''NakedLunch'' features several scenes in which groups of people unwittingly ingest a mood-altering drug.

Trope Name is the lyric from BobDylan's "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" (leading, incidentally, to one of the more notable musical instances of NonAppearingTitle and RefrainFromAssuming). It's also used by CypressHill from their album "Temple of Boom".

* In the ''CowboyBebop'' episode "Mushroom Samba", Ed and Ein test mushrooms they found on the rest of the crew. [[HilarityEnsues Cue hilarious montages of them tripping out]] while the rest of the episode's plot plays out around them.

* ''WorldOfWarcraft'' features an annual Valentine's Day event, ''Love Is In The Air'', which revolves around [=NPCs=] around the game world being unusually amiable to each other. A quest which the player can embark upon leads to the discovery that the "love plague" is the invention of a Forsaken alchemist, in a failed attempt to spread lovey-doveyism worldwide in order to prime it for invasion.

* In the ''{{Futurama}}'' episode "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid", an invasion of knowledge-devouring Brainspawn causes everyone on Earth to fall into [[TheDitz ditzy]] levels of stupidity. Everyone [[OnlySaneMan except for Fry]], who lacks certain types of brainwaves as the result of [[StableTimeLoop being his own grandfather]].

* In one episode of ''{{Daria}}'', the Morgendorffers go camping. Jake finds some berries and everyone except Daria eats them. Soon they're running around the woods talking about glitter berries and spirit animals, and have to be air-lifted out.

* In one ''{{Horndog}}'' storyline, the main character takes LSD and believes a spilled bottle of Faygo Red Pop is blood.

* The sit-com ''{{Taxi}}'' had one of these as well, where Latka brought in some cookies made with his old country grandmother's favorite recipe. Everyone proceeded to get completely stoned, except Jim, who sampled the cookies, looked thoughtful, and then said "Columbia". He samples a bit more, and says "1979" (the episode aired in 1981). He samples a bit more, and says "North mountains". He samples a bit more, and says "Before the rains". The parody of coffee and wine snobs identifying a vintage by taste, and the idea that Jim was enough of an expert to do this with marijuana, was hysterically funny.

* ''PowerRangers:''
** "[[MightyMorphinPowerRangers Stop the Hate Master]]:" A hate spell affects all but Aisha.
** "[[PowerRangersDinoThunder Leader of the Whack]]:" A 'brings out repressed personality traits' spell affects ''everybody.'' The jock turns into a nerd, the nerd turns into a bruiser, the "Avril wannabe" turns into a ValleyGirl, the BrainwashedAndCrazy guy briefly reverts to good, Devon turns into a ChickMagnet...Fortunately, it doesn't stop them battling the MonsterOfTheWeek (who himself is affected, going from timid and whiny to ready to clobber anyone in spandex.)

* ''{{Stargate SG-1}}'' had something like this in the episode "The Light." The whole team gets pretty stoned. (Poor Loran.)

[[folder: Film]]
* ''CheechAndChong'' films.
* In TheFaculty, the aliens have an adverse reaction to Zeke's homemade drugs that causes them to die instantly. The group snorts the drugs to prove to each other they are not infected. This leads to it's own problem of not only are they being persued by alien body snatchers, but now they are high as well.

* Gargamel's Daredevil Dust, which makes WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs act so reckless in the cartoon show episode "Reckless Smurfs".

* At the end of the ''SouthPark'' episode about how ratings control the news, it turns out [[spoiler:everyone is stoned.]]

* The ''BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' episode "Band Candy". Since the band candy [[spoiler: made you act like a teenager]], only the adult characters were visibly affected, which lead to some amusing role reversals.

* ''VideoGame/{{Mother 3}}'' features a segment where all the human members of your party must eat mushrooms to continue; their HP has been dropped to 1, their [[{{Mana}} PP]] to zero, and they've lost all their items, so there's no other way to gain enough HP to pass even the first monster (whose speed is maxed out, and always starts with an attack that hits everyone in the party).[[hottip:*:Of course, if you want to fill out the [[MonsterCompendium Battle Memory]], you'll have to face it and tank a loss before eating the mushrooms, anyway]] [[EvilDetectingDog Boney]] refuses to eat the mushrooms, and it turns out that he was smart to avoid them: the three humans end up hallucinating wildly for the next segment of the game, with only Boney's reactions being proper clues to what's really going on.

* ''Cheech And Chong'' films.

* The sit-com ''Barney Miller'' had an episode where one of the detectives brought his girlfriend's homemade brownies into the squad room. High-larity ensues.

* In the ''{{Illuminatus}}''-trilogy the protagonists at one point ''must'' take a dose of LSD each before entering a rock festival sponsored by the AncientConspiracy in order to prevent the enemy psychics from reading their minds. They needn't have bothered, since someone had already put the stuff in the water supply. Ofcourse this being ''Illuminatus'', the protagonists keep getting stoned repeatedly anyway for fun, sport and enlightenment. It even includes Franklin Delano Roosevelt giving a good word for the stuff.

** Fans also have a theory that green kryptonite works in this manner for non-kryptonian characters. The theory's helped by one of the books having a gang get temporary powers from Kryponite-irradiated berries, which are treated exactly like a drug.
*** The episodes ''Nicodemus'' and ''Rush'' had people lose their inhabitions due to a rare pollen and ancient (possibly Kryptonian) parasites, respectivly. In both these episodes, Clark is pretty much the only one not affected [[spoiler: in ''Rush'', however, Chloe and Pete use Red Kryptonite to make him join them]].

* The CONTROL spies of ''Series/GetSmart'' drank drugged water that had everyone halluciante. Max had a vision of taking care of a baby alligator instead of his baby and the Chief was playing pool with George Washington and he was cheating.

** Smug Alert has this with all the kids in Los Angeles due to their parents self absorbed to the point of loving the smell of their own farts. It doesn't take long for Kyle (age 9) and Ike (age 3-4) to get trashed on acid.

** ''DeepSpaceNine'' had a LoveIsInTheAir episode, and one in which the entirety of the base's personnel (except for Odo, who gets to be the OnlySaneMan due to being goo in his true form) turn against each other, acting out an alien conflict, due to a {{Phlebotinum}}-ized disease.

** ''{{Voyager}}'': The Maquis crew members were {{Brainwashed}} into trying to take over the ship by a message from home containing hidden signals from one of the last surviving Maquis. This sort of thing happened to the ''Voyager'' crew more than once, though.
** ''{{Enterprise}}'' had "Singularity," in which a NegativeSpaceWedgie makes everyone obsess over trivial things. This one had many a CrowningMomentOfFunny:

->''"Okay, this is like that episode of StarTrek with the parallel universe where everything's the same except everyone is on heroin."''

* In the ''StarTrek'' franchise, this is a time-honored tradition:

** ''StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' gives "The Naked Time" a sequel, "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E2TheNakedNow The Naked Now]]", which didn't go over very well. (It didn't help that a ''drunk'' [[CreatorsPet Wesley Crusher]] is ''still'' smarter than the rest of the cast combined.) There was also a telepathically-spread Vulcan disease that an ill Sarek spread, causing emotions to run rampant. A much milder example happened in "Night Terrors," in which not dreaming made the crew get a little ornery and forget things they were about to say by the end of the episode. (Maybe the writers thought it was a lot more dramatic than it turned out to be.)
** ''StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' also had the episode "The Game", in which aliens got the crew [[NewMediaAreEvil addicted to a video game]] that made them really mellow in order to take over the ship. Data, not being susceptible, had to be put out of commission. [[CreatorsPet Guess who saved the ship...]]

* Not satisfied with characters that changed personalities from week to week, {{Dollhouse}} sprung one of these only 7 episodes in. [[spoiler: The [[TechnicolorScience vibrant green]] [[AppliedPhlebotinum neurochemical]] affects normals and dolls differently. When it touches unaltered humans it has [[StarTrekTheNextGeneration "Naked Now"]]-like effects, and [[HilarityEnsues hilarity ensues]]. Conversely, it hits dolls more slowly resulting in PTSD-like flashbacks.]]

* The CONTROL spies of ''GetSmart'' drank drugged water that had everyone halluciante. Max had a vision of taking care of a baby alligator instead of his baby and the Chief was playing pool with George Washington and he was cheating.

* In the ''BigBangTheory'' episode "The Adhesive Duck Deficiency", Howard accepts some homemade cookies from a pair of [[NewAgeRetroHippie nice fiftysomething ladies in a VW bus wearing tie-dyed shirts]]. He then shares the cookies with Raj and Leonard. They all get completely baked, eat all their provisions and miss the Leonid meteor shower that they were there to see entirely.

* The ''{{Angel}}'' episode "Spin the Bottle" has a spell backfiring, resulting in all the characters being mentally regressed to their teenage years. HilarityEnsues.

* In the 100th episode of ''ThirtyRock'', a gas leak causes the cast of ''TGS'' to act stranger than usual. Liz calls her jerk of an ex-boyfriend, Jack argues with his past, alternate-universe, and future selves, and Tracy tries to [[spoiler:shoot Kenneth]]. In the end, the show is about to go on and all the writing was done when they were gassed-up, and the new CEO is about to cancel it. The solution? [[spoiler:another gas leak to make the audience think it's funny.]]

* In the ''{{Futurama}}'' episode "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid", an invasion of knowledge-devouring Brainspawn causes everyone on Earth to fall into RalphWiggum levels of stupidity. Everyone [[OnlySaneMan except for Fry]], who lacks certain types of brainwaves as the result of [[StableTimeLoop being his own grandfather]].

** ''VisionOfEscaflowneAbridged'' has fun on just what causes Hitomi's visions: turns out that [[strike: tarot cards]] MagictheGathering cards are laced with LSD.
* In The CowboyBebop episode ''Mushroom Samba'', Ed and Ein test mushrooms they found on the rest of the crew. [[HilarityEnsues Cue hilarious montages of them tripping out]] while the rest of the episode's plot plays out around them.

* ''{{Mother 3}}'' features a segment where all the human members of your party must eat mushrooms to continue; their HP has been dropped to 1, their [[{{Mana}} PP]] to zero, and they've lost all their items, so there's no other way to gain enough HP to pass even the first monster (whose speed is maxed out, and always starts with an attack that hits everyone in the party).[[hottip:*:Of course, if you want to fill out the [[MonsterCompendium Battle Memory]], you'll have to face it and tank a loss before eating the mushrooms, anyway]] [[EvilDetectingDog Boney]] refuses to eat the mushrooms, and it turns out that he was smart to avoid them: the three humans end up hallucinating wildly for the next segment of the game, with only Boney's reactions being proper clues to what's really going on.

** ''StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' gives "The Naked Time" a sequel, "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E2TheNakedNow The Naked Now]]", which didn't go over very well. (It didn't help that a ''drunk'' [[TheWesley Wesley Crusher]] is ''still'' smarter than the rest of the cast combined.) There was also a telepathically-spread Vulcan disease that an ill Sarek spread, causing emotions to run rampant. A much milder example happened in "Night Terrors," in which not dreaming made the crew get a little ornery and forget things they were about to say by the end of the episode. (Maybe the writers thought it was a lot more dramatic than it turned out to be.)
** ''StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' also had the episode "The Game", in which aliens got the crew [[NewMediaAreEvil addicted to a video game]] that made them really mellow in order to take over the ship.
