** Hinata nervously asks Naruto "W-Would y-you like to go s-somewhere together to eat o-or something?" However, [[ObliviousToLove Naruto]] misunderstands what she's saying and thinks she wants the two of them plus Shikamaru to spend time together, much to her disappointment. Noticing Hinata's reaction, [[ShipperOnDeck Shikamaru]] tells them he can't come given that he has to go home for some clan stuff (which ''[[SubvertedTrope isn't]]'' [[INeedToGoIronMyDog an excuse he just made up]]), thus allowing Naruto and Hinata to spend some time just the two of them.

* In the ''Fanfic/FacingTheFutureSeries'', whenever [[WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom Danny]] and Sam have a moment, [[CoolBigSis Jazz's]] policy is not to peek in on them and leave them be so they can be together.

* In the ''Aladdin'' sequel, ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheReturnOfJafar'', Iago shoos Genie, Rajah, and Abu away from Jasmine and Aladdin, loudly and obnoxiously, as he does everything. It's an attempt to make them trust him ([[BecomingTheMask maybe]]).

* During ''{{WesternAnimation/Frozen|2013}}'', Anna returns to Hans for help against the curse on her, telling him: "[[TrueLovesKiss Hans, you have to kiss me]]." The servants and aristocrats present immediately vacate the room. [[spoiler:Had they stayed, though, they might have been able to stop Hans from attempting to murder Anna...]]

* In ''{{WesternAnimation/Pocahontas}}'', Grandmother Willow closes her leaves like a curtain while the main couple are about to kiss.

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'': This is [[PlayedForHorror played much more darkly and villainous]] than usual in one anime only arc. Naruto faces Fūka, a FemmeFatale that [[ForcefulKiss forces]] a KissOfDeath on him after excessively flirting with him and essentially turning their fight into a CaptiveDate. When Naruto's teammates Sakura and Sai see the two kissing, they quickly realize something is wrong, Sakura tried to attack Fūka, demanding she release Naruto. But Fūka's teammates Fudō and Fuen arrived and stopped her, then trapped her and Sai to prevent them from interfering, thus allowing Fūka to continue her kiss with Naruto uninterrupted. Though thankfully shortly after this, Fūka ends the kiss herself due to accidentally absorbing the Nine-Tails' chakra and finding it "[[TooSpicyForYogSothoth too evil]]" for her.

* In ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikers'', after Caro sends a quick telepathic note to Erio, the both of them quickly vacate Subaru's hospital room after Teana arrives. Man, even the kids can detect the lingering LesYay.
* In ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'', Sasahara and the other guys excuse themselves from Kousaka's apartment so he would be alone with Kasukabe.
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'': The "let's spy on them" variation was a trademark schtick of everybody else in the house when Ranma and Akane had to talk. This of course usually led to the interruption of said moments when someone inevitably either fell through the sliding doors or got impatient and told them to get on with it. The same thing happens with Ukyo and Shampoo.
* A variation: In ''Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross''[=/=]''Anime/{{Robotech}}'', when Hikaru/Rick and Misa/Lisa [[FakeoutMakeout kiss]] to try to distract what they thing is a Zentraedi guard, it turns out to be Max's [[HumongousMecha battroid]] [[DressingAsTheEnemy in a Zentradi uniform]]. He stows his comrades into the coat's pockets, but teases Hikaru/Rick and Misa/Lisa by putting them in the same pocket to give them some "privacy".

* Near the end of ''Anime/GaoGaiGar'', the other [=GGG=] members keep Mamoru from going with Gai and Mikoto to her parents' grave, knowing that anything they say there (and afterwards) is likely going to be very private.

* ''Manga/CaseClosed'': an injured Takagi is alone in a hospital room with Sato, certain that any moment now, a MomentKiller will walk through the door.

%% ** Kazuha Toyama in the Shiragami-sama case. It was bad news for Shinichi though: [[spoiler:He was about to shrink back into Conan when Ran was still with him. Heiji tried to help him escape, but Kazuha.]]
* At the end of ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeed'', Athrun senses that Kira is going to cry and he drags Cagalli out of the room to leave his friend alone with Lacus. Cagalli protests.

* In ''Manga/DarwinsGame'', [[spoiler:when Shuka and Kaname do the deed in Shuka’s room, Sui is able to sense it when she tries to sees Shuka and pushes Ryuuji who was also nearby away]].
* In ''Manga/ASilentVoice'', Yuzuru makes up excuses to give Shouko and Shouya as much time alone as possible at the fireworks festival. Twice! The second time [[spoiler:Shouya arrives just in time to prevent Shouko's suicide.]]
* Even though she hates the idea of Romio and Juliet dating each other, Char from ''Manga/BoardingSchoolJuliet'' manages to drive potential {{Moment Killer}}s away several times even without the couple in question knowing. One chapter especially is devoted to Char's POV, and to her chagrin, she had to trick multiple characters in quick succession.
* A variation is PlayedForLaughs in the twelfth chapter of ''Manga/AsteroidInLove'', adopted in the fourth episode. When the [[ClubStub Earth Sciences Club]] is visiting the Geological Museum, Mikage, the local geology nut, is squeeing over the exhibits, and behind her is Mai squeeing over Mikage. Seeing this, Mari blocks Mira and Ao moving forward and lets the two have a bit of me time.
* ''Manga/HitomiChanIsShyWithStrangers'': Since pretty much every other character is a ShipperOnDeck for Yuu and Hitomi, they (usually Yuu's sister Kaoru and her friend Angelica) frequently set things up so that the two of them are alone together, like a FerrisWheelDateMoment or an OldFashionedRowboatDate. In Chapter 39, when they're LockedInARoom together, Tachibana-sensei opens the door just as Hitomi has [[SuggestiveCollision fallen on top of Yuu]] after he pulled her back through the window. She smiles and says she'll act like she didn't see anything, though they protest that it's NotWhatItLooksLike.

* In ''ComicBook/TheLifeAndTimesOfScroogeMcDuck, Chapter 8B: The Prisoner of White Agony Creek'': After taking a party to "[[UnwantedRescue rescue]]" Goldie from Scrooge, Judge Roy Bean wisely decides they do ''not'' want to interrupt, because "what's going on in that cabin is ''not'' a hanging offense in Langtry, Texas, or anywhere else! Thank gosh!"
* ''ComicBook/{{Robin|Series}}'': Ives goes out of his way to make sure Tim and Stephanie get time on their own on multiple occasions over the years.

* ''Fanfic/DeathAndKer'' features several scenes in which Shinjiro, observing the burgeoning romance between Akihiko and Mitsuru, finds a way to slip away unnoticed and leave them alone together. It almost approaches the level of a running gag, as it's inevitably followed by one or the other of them wondering where the hell he went.
* In ''Fanfic/TomorrowsDoom'', during the beach outing, everyone decides to go out for a walk and leave Yoko and Kenta alone in the bungalow, expecting the two to hit it off. And they do.

* ''Fanfic/AdviceAndTrust'': Everyone quickly leaves after Asuka's birthday party is over since they're fully aware of [[GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex what Shinji and Asuka are planning to do]] when they go to bed.

* It commonly happens in ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' fics, when after an identity reveal between Adrien and Marinette, their kwamis fly away (often with Tikki dragging Plagg by force) to let them have a private conversation.

* ''[[Fanfic/AftermathOfTheGames Integration]]'': After a successful dinner date between Princess Twilight and the Human Flash Sentry, Twilight tells for Spike and [[spoiler:the filly Starlight Glimmer]] to go through the portal, and she will join them shortly.

* ''Film/TheMatrixReloaded'': Link, Neo, Trinity, and the Kid are all on an elevator together. When the door opens, Link says, "Let's go, Kid. These two got things to do." As soon as the door closes again, Neo and Trinity start kissing.
* In ''Film/SenseAndSensibility'', when Eleanor bursts out crying at the news that Edward [[spoiler:is not married]], her mother and sisters look at each other, gobsmacked for a moment, and then hurriedly vacate the room.

* ''Film/MeanGirls'' invokes this trope hilariously when Damian whispers "Man candy, stage right!" and grabs Janice to run off while Aaron comes over to Cady. They then completely subvert the trope by running back seconds later, kidnapping one of Cady's certificates to a pancake house, and then leave again.
-->'''Janice''': ''(grabs the certificate)'' Thanks, suckah!
-->'''Damian''': PEACE! ''(they run off)''

* In ''Film/{{Fireproof}}'', Kirk Cameron's character's best friend shoos the other firemen away from the door in order to let the protagonist and his wife enjoy their reconciliation in peace.

* ''Film/BatmanTheMovie'': Bruce and Kitka's making out prompts Robin to turn the hidden camera off. Not to mention the kissing couple in the opening credits. And in a fairly extreme example, Batman refrains from [[DunkingTheBomb dropping]] the CartoonBomb on the couple in the rowboat.
* 1947 ''Film/{{Cinderella|1947}}'': The king announces the wedding, but as the Prince and Zolushka hold hands and gaze at each other, the Prince notes that Zolushka hasn't said she loves him. The king then ushers everyone out of the room, saying that he hates it when gawkers intrude on romantic resolutions, and that's the last we see of the prince and Zolushka/Cinderella.
* A lot of the Creator/RogerMoore [[Franchise/JamesBond Bond]] films end with Bond trying to get lucky, being interrupted by his superiors trying to get in touch with him, and him enforcing this trope.

* In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'', as Steve Rogers is trying to pilot the ''Valkyre'' after beating the Red Skull, Peggy Carter takes over the radio from Jim Morita, with Col. Phillips behind both of them in the control room. As Steve and Peggy try to find a safe landing for him, Phillips realizes what's happening and quietly tells Morita to leave them alone for their last contact.

* ''Literature/PrideAndPrejudice'':
** When Mr. Collins tries to get Lizzy to marry him, Mrs. Bennet, picking up on his intentions, is all too eager to shoo her daughters out and clear the room. Lizzy, who also knows what's coming up and ''really'' wants to avoid it if at all possible, frantically begs her to stay where she's at.
** Mrs. Bennet tries to send everyone off in a painfully obvious fashion, in hopes that Mr. Bingley will finally propose to Jane. The funny comes when Mrs. Bennet attempts to make "subtle" let's-get-out-of-here motions to her daughter Kitty... who doesn't understand what her mother's up to and naively (and loudly) [[IDoNotSpeakNonverbal asks her mother why she's winking at her]] in such a strange fashion.
** Mr. Bingley cheerfully asks Mrs. Bennet to suggest a ''nice long walk'' for Darcy and Elizabeth to go on, and then immediately suggests that Kitty would not want to go with them, in a manner that can only be considered subtle when compared to Mrs. Bennet.

* In ''Literature/DragonBlood'', the protagonists all innocently point out that Ward ''has'' to share a tent with the woman he's in love with ... for perfectly rational reasons, of course.

* In the novelization of ''Film/DeadPoetsSociety'', Nuwanda asks them to show the garden to the second girl. The ones who understand quickly push the others outside.
* In ''Literature/HonorHarrington'' by a Mesan Alliance agent, who takes advantage of the fact that he's publicly engaged to his (secret) contact to get privacy in which to report to her.
* In ''[[Literature/AbramsDaughters Abram's Daughters]]'', an Amish romance/Christian fiction series, all the courtships are conducted in secrecy in keeping with Amish custom. Even close family members can only guess who is seeing whom.
* In ''Literature/AHatFullOfSky'', Miss Tick makes a big deal out of [[INeedToGoIronMyDog going to look at "a very fine and interesting example of... a big stone]]" when Roland wants to talk to Tiffany. Tiffany, who doesn't feel that way about Roland at all, is not happy with the implication.

* In ''Series/{{Smallville}}'', Chloe often excuses herself to get some privacy for Clark and Lana.

* In the ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' episode "Jaynestown", Simon and Kaylee are getting drunk in the bar and basically having a Moment.

* ''Series/{{Friends}}'': After everyone (finally) finds out about Monica and Chandler, Joey doesn't even offer an excuse and just quotes this trope word for word. Ross, Monica's older brother, is not amused.

* ''Series/{{Leverage}}'': When Parker is jealous of Hardison's attraction to one of their clients, Sophie tells Parker she should confess her feelings and leaves them alone together. Parker CannotSpitItOut, but Hardison understands and basically lets her know that he's willing to wait.

* The ''Series/DoctorWho'' episode "Hell Bent" includes a unique variant of this trope. The Doctor has just revealed to Clara that he spent 4 1/2 ''billion'' years in a bespoke torture chamber, in order to create the circumstance where [[spoiler: she could be pulled out of time a moment before her death]]. Clara is thunderstruck by this revelation and appears to undergo a form of LoveRevelationEpiphany, leading her to tell the Doctor that there is something important she must tell him. As she starts, the camera pans away from them and in fact leaves the vicinity completely; we are treated to a lovely view of Gallifrey's citadel and a reprise of Clara's {{leitmotif}} and when we return, Clara has said her piece.
** Referenced in "School Reunion" in reference to the Doctor/TARDIS CargoShip, as Rose and Sarah Jane discuss the Doctor's pecadillos:
--->'''Sarah Jane''': Does he still...stroke parts of the TARDIS?\\
'''Rose'''''(laughing)'': Yes, yes! I'm like, "Do you two want to be left alone?"
** Played with at the end of "Amy's Choice", when Amy and Rory exchange TheBigDamnKiss.

-->'''Foggy Nelson:''' Careful, Matt.
-->'''Matt Murdock:''' What's that?
-->'''Foggy Nelson:''' You keep going like this, you just might end up happy. And for a Catholic boy, that's a pretty dangerous thing.
-->'''Matt Murdock:''' [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend I don't know what you're talking about.]] ''[Foggy pats him on the shoulder]''
-->'''Foggy Nelson:''' Godspeed, Matt Murdock. ''[Karen comes out]''
-->'''Karen Page:''' Hey! Where next?
