* The protagonist of Creator/KurtVonnegut's ''Literature/MotherNight''. Sucks for him that the good guys he helped won't admit what he did after the war ends.
** Not that it would have eased his conscience much if they did. [[spoiler:After they finally do admit that he was working for them, averting his impending death sentence, he hangs himself out of guilt over what he did anyway.]]

* ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends'':
** Ulic Qel-Droma started out this way. TheDarkSide being the Dark Side, however, he can't keep up the charade.

Joseph Lawrence is a Commander, though he too get's revealed to be working with them. The first sign he's a good guy is his [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil refusal to rape Emily]] as part of the Ceremony. However, he still acts harshly to June (especially while his fellow Commanders are there), though it may be an example of GoodIsNotNice.

[[GoodAllAlong A villain, usually a henchman, turns out to have been a goodie all along]]. As such, this is TheMole for the good guys.

* Simmons becomes a Reverse Mole for SHIELD within HYDRA in ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'' Season Two. The episode [[Recap/AgentsOfSHIELDS2E5AHenInTheWolfHouse "A Hen in the Wolf House"]] reveals she's not the only one, [[spoiler: the head of security hunting for a mole within Comicbook/{{HYDRA}} is really Comicbook/{{SHIELD}} agent [[Comicbook/{{Mockingbird}} Bobbi Morse]]]].

This is why Juno forced Desmond to stab her at the end of Brotherhood.]]

** This is all complicated significantly by the fact that the Ghostbloods members include several [[spoilers: worldhoppers, and it is totally unclear what their actual goal is on Roshar]]. Shalan assumes they're bad guys, but everything they ask her to do is directly in-line with what she is trying to accomplish anyways.

* ''Literature/WordsOfRadiance'' (second book of ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive''): Shallan uses her illusion powers to infiltrate the Ghostbloods. [[spoiler:When they find out, they see nothing wrong with it. "Let Shallan Davar be a Radiant, conformist and noble. Let Veil come to us. And let her find truth."]]
