* In AvatarTheLastAirbender, Zuko is this to Iroh, as in the page quote. It doesn't hurt that Zuko's actual father is trying to conquer the world, and also [[spoiler::gave him his scar and banished him.]] Later, [[CallingTheOldManOut when he calls the old man out]], this is part of the exchange:
--> '''Ozai:''' Your uncle has gotten to you, hasn't he?
--> '''Zuko:''' Yes, he has.

\n* On ''That70sShow,'' Kelso wants to buy a great car from Leo. As they're about to make the final deal, however, Leo recalls that he had originally planned to give that car to his long-lost son and said that he couldn't bear to sell it, which Kelso can understand. Leo then immediately ''gives'' the car to Hyde, calling him the son he never had (as opposed to that long-lost son that he ''did'' have). Needless to say, Kelso was annoyed.
