History Main / SorryToInterrupt

* In ''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvania'', Dracula and Johnny are lost in the secret tunnels, and walk in on a skeleton woman taking a shower. Drac is quick to apologize, and the skeleton woman's husband asks "What is wrong with you people?", as Johnny had stuck his hand in her ribcage, earlier.

* A rare outside example in ''Film/CoolCatSavesTheKids''. In the background during a scene where Cool Cat talks at someone's door, you can see a (likely non-staff) neighbor leave his house, see Cool Cat from across the street, and calmly walk back inside.

* A walk ''out'' in ''Film/CoolCatSavesTheKids''. In the background during a scene where Cool Cat talks at someone's door, you can see a (likely non-staff) neighbor leave his house, see Cool Cat from across the street, and calmly walk back inside.

* ''ComicBook/RobinSeries'': Tim Drake pulled off an amusing version in his introduction when he meets ComicBook/{{Starfire}} while looking for [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick Grayson]]. He interrupts her day, realizes Dick isn't there while revealing he ''knows Dick is Nightwing'' and then apologetically runs off into the city leaving Kory in a panic about the weird random kid who knows the Batfamily's secrets. The whole of the ComicBook/TeenTitans are looking for Tim as a possible villain before he even tracks down Dick.

This trope is when someone opens a door, sees something unexpected, and does an about face. They may mutter something like, "I'll come back later," "You seem busy," or "[[TitleDrop Sorry to interrupt]]." Now what the people in the room are doing may be NotWhatItLooksLike, and often isn't even sexual at all. The two people may be summoning a ghost, or conversing with their toys. On the [[IncrediblyLamePun other hand]], this covers [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown solo acts]].

* ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'': Mr. Incredible has been invited to dinner by Mirage. Peeking through the door, he sees her talking to her mysterious employer (though he can only be partially seen). So Mirage won't know he's been spying, he then pretends he's just arrived when she goes to the door.

* In ''Manga/{{Getbackers}}'', Genji is in the hospital with Himiko keeping him company. Genji is eating some melon and throws one slice straight in, causing him to choke on it. Himiko leans over to make sure he's okay; cue Natsumi coming in to say hi, and immediately assuming she's walking in on a kiss.
-->"Sorry for interrupting"

* From ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'':

* In ''LightNovel/{{Baccano}}'', a [[{{delinquents}} member of one of the more sympathetic]] character's TrueCompanions enters a train with a knife drawn and orders everyone to get down. At the same time two rival factions of mobsters enter with guns and do likewaise. He promply leaves.
-->"Sorry for the confusion."

* ''LightNovel/{{Shimoneta}}'': In chapter 10, Ayame enters the girls' locker-room and sees [[DudeLooksLikeALady Oboro]] pinned on the floor, while Tanukichi is shirtless and holding Oboro's legs open. Made more incriminating since [[spoiler:Oboro's skirt was bunched around his waist, leaving his panties fully exposed]]. Ayame jumps to [[DidYouJustHaveSex the obvious conclusion]] and hastily exits the room without a word.

* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'', Lightning [=McQueen=] goes to talk to Doc Hudson and walks in on Sheriff getting a tune up, which, judging from [=McQueen=]'s reaction, appears to be the car equivalent of a colonoscopy.
