* ''Literature/EpithetErasedPrisonOfPlastic'': The prologue for the Neo Trio has Phoenica, who is a lovely person but [[RichInDollarsPoorInSense utterly devoid of anything resembling common sense or survival instinct]], being accosted by a mugger. When Molly intervenes, she tries to paper over Phoenica's [[SayingTooMuch admission that she has $5000 in cash on her]] by bluffing that her friend is portraying a rich girl in the school play. On the bright side, while Phoenica [[TooDumbToLive saying that obviously if she was playing a rich girl she'd have way more than just $5000 on her]] doesn't ''help'' the deception, the mugger didn't seem to be buying it anyway.

* In a ''{{Series/Bones}}'' episode, a film crew is making a documentary on the lab. Booth and Aubrey have the crew with them while talking to the guy who turns out to be the real, albeit accidental, killer in the end. The guy’s mom interrupts the questioning in the garage and he says they’re filming a movie so she won’t know the truth. So it’s a case of both this trope and actually telling the truth as well.
