'''Basic Trope''': Warm milk makes people sleepy.
* '''Straight''': Alice has insomnia, so she drinks a glass of warm milk, which helps her fall asleep.
* '''Exaggerated''':
** Alice is perfectly active, but the moment she takes a sip of milk that's even slightly warm, she falls fast asleep.
** Warm milk even puts [[HumanoidAliens Zodinians]] to sleep, even though [[TheSleepless Zodinians don't need to sleep]].
** Warm milk causes Alice to fall asleep [[RipVanWinkle for three years]].
* '''Downplayed''': Alice drinks a warm glass of milk in the middle of the day, which makes her a little dozy for a few minutes.
* '''Justified''':
** TruthInTelevision to an extent-- milk has something in it called opiate precursors, which, especially when heated, can cause sleepiness in some people, including Alice.
** Milk has an amino acid which induces serenity, and the reason Alice couldn't sleep was because she was afraid. She heated the milk up because it was winter.
** Alice drank enough milk (which just so happened to be warm) to induce [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postprandial_somnolence postprandial somnolence]] (which is that thing where eating or drinking a lot makes you sleepy).
** The milk was warm, and it was a warm night-- the heat made Alice groggy.
* '''Inverted''':
** Warm milk helps Alice to wake up.
** Alice drinks ''cold'' milk to cure her insomnia.
** All drinks put Alice to sleep ''except'' warm milk.
* '''Subverted''':
** Alice tries warm milk to cure her insomnia, but it doesn't work.
** Alice drinks milk and falls asleep, but then it's later revealed that it wasn't warm.
** It turns out that it wasn't the warm milk that put Alice to sleep, but rather the sleeping pills she took with it.
* '''Double Subverted''':
** It doesn't work initially, but after a while, it works.
** The milk had simply cooled down, but it was warm when Alice drank it.
** The sleeping pills don't work unless warm milk is added.
* '''Parodied''': Surgeons don't need to use anaesthetic, they just give their patients warm milk.
* '''Zigzagged''': Alice, Bob, Charles, and Diane all drink warm milk. Alice falls asleep, Bob is fine, Charles gets groggy, and Diane actually becomes more energetic.
* '''Averted''':
** Nobody drinks warm milk.
** Warm milk has no effect on people.
* '''Enforced''': "We need to have Bob put Alice to sleep, but if he drugs her, he'll look unsympathetic. Let's use warm milk instead."
* '''Lampshaded''': "Huh, I guess warm milk really does work---*zzzz*"
* '''Invoked''': Bob deliberately sedates Alice with warm milk.
* '''Exploited''': Alice sells milk, saying, "Just heat it up and your insomnia will be gone!"
* '''Defied''':
* '''Discussed''': "Does warm milk actually make you sleepy?"
* '''Conversed''': "It seems like in cartoons, milk turns into anaesthesia when it's warmed up."
* '''Implied''': Alice is seen drinking something and falling asleep, though we don't know what it is.
* '''Deconstructed''': Alice can't drink tea with milk or hot chocolate, or else she'll fall asleep.
