* One of the many things that can interpreted in ToyStory when Woody and Buzz [[spoiler:look at each other on last time after [[FaceDeathWithDignity joining hands to face possible death by incinerator]]]].

* [[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses In Part 2 of]] ''{{Kickassia}}'', Benzaie has strapped explosives to Beary, his stuffed bear. During the invasion of Molossia, Benzaie bids farewell to Beary, who replies, "It has been an honor to serve you, ''mon ami''," and the two hug. [[spoiler:Beary explodes before Benzaie can throw him, though. [[IGotBettert He gets better.]] ]]

* First parodied by Edmund in ''BlackAdder Goes Fourth'' with the line "If I should die, think only this of me... I'll be back to get ya," and then played straight in the final episode with his quiet "Good luck everybody" as they go over the top.

** '''ALL''' protagonist deaths in the DigitalDevilSaga games involve this in some way shape or form.

** In a less [[TearJerker tear-jerking]] example, at the end of his RomanceSidequest Kaidan tells Shepard that, whatever happens, he's enjoyed serving with her.

* Done as part of the DownerEnding for ''{{Unreal}} 2'', your entire crew is proud of you and having served with you.

* Done in the new ''BattlestarGalactica'' during the Battle of New Caprica. ''Galactica'' has taken heavy damage while desperately trying to hold off three Cylon Baseships so the civilians can jump away. When he learns the FTL drive can't be brought back online and ''Galactica'' is beyond hope of escape, Adama delivers this line to his bridge crew. Just before the [[BigDamnGunship Big Damn Battlestar]] ''[[BigDamnHeroes Pegasus]]'' [[BigDamnGunship hurtles to the rescue]].

* One character in the third {{Death Note}} movie finally manages, at the very end, to say it to L.

-->[[spoiler:Bishop Octavian]]: "I think sir, you know me at my best".

** Invoked (sorta) later on by Rodney McKay, who starts to tell Daniel Jackson that he's always respected him, before the latter dies. After they're rescued, Rodney denies that this was what he was going to say.

* Lisbon gives one of these to Cho when she thinks she and Jane are going to die in {{The Mentalist}} episode Code Red. You think she'd be a little more genre-savvy half-way through the second season . . .

* {{Farscape}} loves this trope, but likes to mix up the words. Just a few examples:

* In the Gordon Lightfoot's "The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"

** In Dragon Age: Awakening, should the PC decide to defend Vigil's Keep during the final battle, [[spoiler:Seneshal Varel is mortally wounded in combat, and will say this to the PC before dying in the thick of battle]].

* Played straight in {{Galaxy Rangers}} episode "Queen's Gun." After destroying the Queen's super-weapon and blasting off from the explosion, the Rangers realize their getaway ship has about ten minutes of air left. [[TeamDad Zachary's reaction is to tell his crew that he is proud of them, no matter what]].

** Also, the Justice Guild, heroes of an alternate reality who discover that their world was destroyed by a nuclear holocaust, and that they were only the memories of a telepathic man-child given life. When they realized that they would cease to exist in order to save what was left of humanity in their world, they silently nodded and shouted their [[BaddassCreed battle-cry]], "Let Justice Be Done!"

* Surprised that no one's cited Spock's final words in ''StarTrekTheWrathOfKhan'':

** And, it was ''heavily'' implied that Hyuga had a major league crush on Misato. [[spoiler: His personal Rei turns into Misato and kisses him during [[AssimilationPlot Instrumentality]]]]

* Used by [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Ronan Dex]] to John Sheppard in an episode of ''{{Stargate Atlantis}}''. They didn't die.
