7[[caption-width-right:299:[[Series/StarTrekVoyager "This isn't about the gun! This is about sex!"]][[note]]Interestingly, as originally written this was not meant to be a sexy discretion shot. The characters were going to hug; UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode changed the final panel [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything to the holstered gun instead.]][[/note]]]]

9->''"You never see anything anyway. They always, uh, turn the camera, and... play music and... y'know, the wind blows and then the curtain moves. You don't see anything."''

11%% One quote per main page only. Rest can be added to the quote sub-page.
12
13Two characters have been talking, talking has turned to kissing, and as kissing starts to turn to... other things, and the camera suddenly decides to look elsewhere. The view pans away as it [[FadeToBlack fades to black]] or rests upon an intimate but innocuous object like a burning candle, the curtains of the open window, or the door being closed. We're not supposed to care about this new subject. It's just the show's way of saying, "They're going to have sex now, let's give them some privacy".
14
15This shot can be turned into a [[TimeCompressionMontage passage-of-time montage]], e.g. a dissolve shows the candle going from just-lit to guttering, or the darkened window now gleams with the rays of the rising sun. When the camera wanders back we see our couple post-coitus, cuddled up for some pillow talk or slumbering peacefully beneath their ModestyBedsheet. Sometimes this dissolve will include an actual clock, giving a clearer indication of the couple's... stamina (this is occasionally spoofed when the time elapsed is [[SpeedSex only a few minutes]], implying the moment of passion was neither long nor particularly satisfying).
16
17If it's a woman's first time, you may see a flower drop to the floor to represent the loss of her "innocence."
18
19This trope is useful for various reasons. If the CensorshipBureau simply does not allow depictions of sex, this gets the idea across to the audience without showing anything that would offend the MoralGuardians. It can also be used in works that ''would'' permit explicit sex scenes, but this particular act of lovemaking [[TheLawOfConservationOfDetail does not play a significant role in the story]]. If a production is intended at a family audience, the trope can be utilized to get the point across without being explicit about it or risking getting a higher viewer advisory rating that could impact box office or ad revenue. Also sex scenes are notoriously difficult to write well and sympathetically, and can often distract from the story -- exactly what is ''Film/BlueIsTheWarmestColor'' about? -- so can be used to avoid having to try.

21Similar tropes include DressHitsFloor, DontComeAKnockin, KissingDiscretionShot, PinkIsErotic, RapeDiscretionShot (if the sexual encounter is non-consensual), TakeOurWordForIt, SexyCoatFlashing, SomethingElseAlsoRises, RelaxOVision, SexDressed, GRatedSex. This may be a result of CrashingThroughTheHarem. Compare LewdLustChasteSex, when everything is described in sexy detail except the deed itself. Compare PostCoitalCollapse.

40* [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]] in Manga/InterspeciesReviewers. In one of the many times in which [[StraightMan Crim]] is about to have sex, the scene cuts away... to [[TheBartender Mei]][[CuteMonsterGirl dri]] [[SubvertedTrope bathing]].
41* In an episode of ''Manga/ZeroZeroNineOne'', when Mylene starts to have sex with someone, the camera pans away and zooms in on their wine glasses as the glasses start to shake.
42* Happens in the anime adaptation of ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' when [[spoiler: Guts and Casca are making love]].
43* ''Anime/EngageKiss'': Between Shu and Ayano in episode 5 after they kiss on a couch, where a few scenes of the two being immodestly dressed are interlaced between scenes of scenery and the weather.
44* In ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'', this happens right after [[HoYay Greece offers his friend Japan]] a "private lesson" to improve his sex life...which is also combined with a ''ScreamDiscretionShot''. [[TheImmodestOrgasm One can only imagine.]]
45* ''Manga/HighschoolOfTheDead'' invokes this once in the manga and anime respectively:
46** During the bath scene in chapter 6, Rei gropes Shizuka's boobs to see if they're real, due to [[BuxomBeautyStandard their enormous size.]] The very next panel shows Saya's reaction, while Shizuka's cries of "Not '''THERE! ♥'''" and "No more! ♥" are seen from just out of frame, along with various sound effect hiragana.
47--->'''Saya:''' ''[{{deadpan|Snarker}}]'' [[LampshadeHanging It sounds like]] an HGame over there...
48** A more serious and implied example occurs in Episode 9 of the anime, when Saeko and Takashi take shelter in a Shinto shrine. After a heart to heart, the camera drifts down [[KissingDiscretionShot while Takashi leans toward Saeko, before fading to black]]. The next morning when the two are leaving, Saeko can be seen putting her skirt back on, implying that they had sex.
49** Midway into the "[[BeachEpisode Drifters of the Dead]]" OVA, Saeko and Takashi flee to a secluded area of the island, in an attempt to [[spoiler:escape the effects of hallucinogenic fumes]]. While they're alone, they end up making out with Takashi lying on top of her. From there, the camera pans downward until only their lower legs remain in the frame, stopping just as Saeko spreads her legs for him, with her barefoot resting next to her discarded bikini bottom. The scene then FadesToBlack. [[spoiler:The morning after reveals it was all in Takashi's head since the real Saeko and the others find him dreaming, while surrounded by a group of bikini-clad zombies]].
50%%* PlayedForLaughs in ''Manga/ICantUnderstandWhatMyHusbandIsSaying''.
51%%-->They had a lot of sex after this.
52* No explicit sex is shown in ''Manga/ItazuraNaKiss'' but it's nevertheless present:
53** In the anime Kotoko and Naoki are shown embracing and kissing in their bedroom thrice: during TheirFirstTime in their honeymoon, then in very implicit make-up sex after the Keita incident, and for Kotoko's twenty-sixth birthday. Kotoko is shown after sleeping with a ModestyBedsheet when Naoki puts a ring on her. Note that Kotoko is pregnant in the next episode.
54** In the manga, it happens at least once, when Kotoko discusses with Naoki how she was MistakenForPregnant. Naoki suggests he'd like to have one right now, and they kiss. After that, they're shown with a ModestyBedsheet.
55* Used in ''Manga/{{Kanamemo}}'' episode 11, when canon lesbian couple Yuuki and Yume are seen going to bed together. Cut to an unrelated cartoon sequence ending in [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything an explosion]], then the next day Yume sleeping late because she's "exhausted".
56* In ''Manga/KoiKaze'', when Koshiro and Nanoka kiss for the first time, they knock an orange off of a table. The scene cuts to a night shot of the orange, still on the floor.
57* ''Anime/LupinIIITheSecretOfTwilightGemini'' has two scenes between [[Anime/LupinIII Lupin]] and [[MsFanservice Fujiko:]]
58** The first occurs at their hotel room, during which Lupin is shown eagerly waiting in bed for Fujiko. As soon as she strips down, the scene immediately cuts to the balcony outside their room, allowing the viewer to hear the remainder of their conversation. When [[EffeminateMisogynisticGuy Sadachiyo]] and his men crash through the windows, the motion beneath the covers and Fujiko's moaning makes it blatantly obvious what she and Lupin were doing.
59** About midway through the film, they run into each other again when Lupin infiltrates Morocco's police HQ, while [[ImpersonatingAnOfficer disguised as an officer.]] After he accidentally spills the beans about the treasure he's after, Fujiko returns the favor by giving him hers. The scene then pans over to the opposite wall, before fading to black.
60* In episode 22 of ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'', when Sheryl tells Alto to 'give her the courage to sing' and they fall into each other's arms, the camera was angled from outside the room, focusing on the koi swimming in the pond, pans up to the sky and then fades out into outer space. Later on, Alto is shown outside the room, with his jacket suspiciously hanging over his shoulders, as opposed to wearing them normally the scene before. It was vague, but the viewers still had the impression of what had happened.
61* ''Manga/ManyuHikencho'': In episode 1, Kagefusa punishes Kaede for choosing to defect from the Manyuu Clan by raping her. The viewer is only allowed to see Kagefusa slip her hand down the front of Kaede's fundoshi, though the camera stays above her waist. After a few moments of intense writhing and moaning, the camera quickly cuts away to a shot of the night sky just as [[TheImmodestOrgasm Kaede screams.]] Afterward, she's seen passed out on the ground with her hindquarters raised, while Kagefusa smugly [[YouTasteDelicious licks her fingers clean.]]
62* In ''Literature/MariaWatchesOverUs'', the DiscretionShot actually pans away before a kiss between two girls, and then back (all that happens is a kiss) -- apparently the camera has some very old-timey sensibilities. In another case, it pans away when a character unbuttons her pyjama jacket to show a scar on her chest to another character.
63* ''Manga/MakenKi'': Used several times.
64** The start of chapter 32 uses a series of veiled panels as [[BigBad Ouken]] [[http://www.mangatown.com/manga/maken_ki/c032/4.html bangs one of his concubines.]] The next page shows him being dressed by two more of his concubines, while the others are seen passed out on the floor around him.
65** In the 70.5 omake chapter, Love Espada seduce an unnamed waitress on her job, by sucking spilled tea from the waitress' fingers. Which causes her to have an orgasm and ask Espada if she'd like to [[DoYouWantToCopulate clean the rest.]] Espada accepts the offer, while the bottom-left panel shows [[http://www.mangatown.com/manga/maken_ki/c070.5/7.html everyone else's reaction]] (SFW).
66** And during chapter 76, Espada seduces another girl, [[http://www.mangatown.com/manga/maken_ki/c076/38.html named "Kyoki"]], by coaxing her into one of the club rooms at school, [[http://www.mangatown.com/manga/maken_ki/c076/39.html despite her protests.]] A few moments later, however, Himegami and Usui both [[LuminescentBlush turn beet red]] once they hear what's going on inside.
67* In ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', there is a lovemaking scene between Misato and Kaji. The viewers are treated to a view of a glass filled with water. But on the other hand, they hear ''everything''.
68** "Don't put strange things in there!"
69** Also subverted in both episode 25 of the TV series and from "End of Evangelion"; both during Misato and Shinji's experience during [[AssimilationPlot Instrumentality]], respectively. Only her feet are visible.
70* In hentai show ''Parade Parade'' there technically is sex going on (it's hentai after all), but the camera moves off-center for a second to focus on a glass of ice [[FunnyBackgroundEvent which apparently is melting from the heat of their passion]].
71* ''Anime/PhantomQuestCorp'': About halfway into the third Incident File, Mr. Nagasuki and [[SexySecretary his secretary]] start going at it hot 'n heavy in his office. The scene shifts to the hallway outside, just as Karino shows up to question him. So when he opens the door, he gets an eyeful, though the door keeps the audience from seeing anything.
72-->''[secretary screams from off-camera]''\
73'''Mr. Nagasuki:''' ''[angrily at Karino]'' GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!\
74'''Karino:''' ''[closes door, snickering]'' Hot action.
75* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'':
76** This trope happens when Sōun imagines the possibilities of sending Ranma and Akane to a hot springs resort for some quality time together. The first thing we see is a scene of them in their room all alone. They're sitting there, side by side, and as they reach for a bun at the same time, their hands touch. The camera cuts to a clip of the window, where we see flowers in a vase. Then we hear Akane say, "Oh, Ranma," and the head of one of the flowers falls off completely.
77** A similar scene was used earlier in the manga during Kuno's ImagineSpot of Ranma "abusing" his female self(the anime's version instead had him acting it out with a puppet, complete with stage).
78* A notable sex scene occurs, a given because it stands out from the rest of the ambiguous scenes taking place in Akio's car in ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena''. During this escapade, [[BackForTheDead Ruka]] takes [[JerkAssWoobie Shiori]] out to Akio's car to discuss Ruka's dueling plans ([[spoiler:which is actually a ploy to humiliate Shiori, supposedly to get [[IceQueen Juri]] out of her conflicted mental state]]). Both of them are then [[ShouldersUpNudity shot shoulders up in a state of undress]], and then a few more shots of the car, and then finally, two more shots of them throwing their heads back and sighing happily. Given the [[MindScrew ambiguous nature]] of the show and what happens, just about anyone can see clearly what's happening.
79-->"[[FreudianSlip Don't you just love]] the throb of the engine?"
80* Takes place in the ''Manga/SailorMoon'' manga ''and'' in ''Anime/SailorMoonCrystal'': at some point Mamoru and Usagi kiss while laying on the floor of his apartment, then the scene ends. The next time they're seen, Usagi is lacking the cute blouse she was wearing under her dress...
81* ''Literature/{{Shimoneta}}'': During the furo scene in episode 12, [[SceneryCensor the water]] conceals the moment Anna 69's with Tanukichi. She dunks his head before she sits on his face, then dips her own head underwater to perform oral sex on him.
82* ''Literature/SoICantPlayH'':
83** In episode 7, two of Almeia's maids try to use their powers [[IntimateHealing to heal Ryosuke.]] There's a brief close-up of Hild's pelvic region as she straddles him before it switches back to a full shot of the bedroom. The glow beneath the sheets only allows you to see her silhouetted on top of him and her hip motion.
84** The final scene of the series' ED has Ryosuke kiss Lisara, before pinning her on his bed. The screen pans up to the ceiling, as a single heart appears, soon followed by several more.
85* ''Anime/VariableGeo'': Invoked when [[{{Meganekko}} Kaori's]] unnamed opponent is forced to carry out the penalty for losing at level-1. Kaori's face is kept in the foreground of the shot, [[SceneryCensor to prevent the viewer from seeing it]], though you can faintly hear the other girl moaning behind her. The scene changes just as she steps out of the way.

88[[folder:Comic Books]]
89* Pictured above is a page from ''ComicBook/NickFury: Agent of ComicBook/{{SHIELD}}'', by Creator/JimSteranko. The last panel of the page showed Fury and the Contessa in a torrid embrace, leaving it very obvious what was going to happen. UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode told Marvel that this was unacceptable, and demanded the page be changed before the comic could be printed. Roy Thomas, the editor, didn't have time to get Steranko (or a replacement artist) to draw a new final panel, so he hastily pasted in a photostat of Fury's discarded holster from the first panel, hoping it would create nice BookEnds for the scene. Thomas somehow completely missed [[FreudWasRight the visual innuendo of a holster with a gun in it]], and evidently so did the Code, as the comic was approved for printing. Thomas only realized what he'd done when he received a phone call from Steranko, laughing his ass off and thanking him for making the sequence even ''sexier.'' Oddly, another mandated change was to the panel with the telephone; the original page showed that the pair [[CuttingTheElectronicLeash left the phone off the hook so as not to be disturbed.]] Thomas had to change the image to the phone ringing but not being answered, which was considered... less sexy? He's still baffled by that one.
90* In "A Man's World", a short story Creator/AlanMoore wrote for ''ComicBook/OmegaMen'', what is set up to ''look'' like a Sexy Discretion Shot turns out to be [[spoiler:a GoryDiscretionShot. Because of his misunderstanding of how reproduction works, Mopi of the [[OneGenderRace Culacaons]] stabbed and killed the female biologist Leelyo when she tried to explain to him how other races needed a female to produce children and was asked by Mopi to produce children with him. It turns out that Culacaons reproduce by [[BizarreAlienReproduction stabbing slug-like creatures to make them produce young Culacaons]], Mopi assuming that the same procedure would work on a sentient female.]]
91* Moore did it again in an issue of ''ComicBook/SwampThing'', with two allies of John Constantine trekking through an underground grotto in search of the lair of a ApocalypseCult. The woman convinces the man that Constantine and Swamp Thing can handle the cult, and extinguishes the match which is their only light source. The man asks her what she's doing, only to start gasping and grunting. The woman remarks that she knew he'd like it. The man gasps a few more times and then goes silent. [[spoiler: We later find out that the woman was working for the cult and what she was actually doing was cutting the man's head off with a machete.]]
92* Invoked in a magazine cartoon with two young people watching TV and the boy saying excitedly, "Here's the part I was telling you about! They kiss with all their clothes on, and then the camera just pans up into the trees and leaves it all to your imagination!"
93* ''ComicBook/MightyAvengers'' 11. Dr. Doom is in the middle ages and requested Morgan Le Fey (a HotWitch who is in fact naked) to instruct him on how to raise an [[NightOfTheLivingMooks army of zombies]]. Morgan Le Fey wants something in exchange... and we jump to the present, with Dr. Doom using said army of zombies to defeat the Avengers. At the end of the story, we go back to Le Fey's castle, who wakes up from his bed and notices that Dr. Doom is no longer there.
94* In ''ComicBook/SupermanAndBatmanGenerations II'', Dick Grayson as Batman and Barbara Gordon as Batgirl decide to have some private time together in her apartment, with the only hint of anything going on is the same shot of an empty living room couch for three panels with the clock showing how much time has passed.
95* In the classic ''ComicBook/{{Superman}}'' story "Comicbook/WhoTookTheSuperOutOfSuperman", Lois comes over to Clark's apartment for dinner one evening. After dinner, they are shown sitting on the couch together with the lights off. In the next panel, Lois is coming into work at the ''Planet'' the next day, smiling, singing to herself, and wearing the same dress as the day before; originally, one of the other characters pointed out that she was wearing the same dress, but either editorial or the Comics Code Authority required them to change it to have that character say that it was a new dress, even though from the drawing it was obviously the same dress from the day before. You can see for yourself [[http://superman.nu/tales2/whotook/maggintalks.php here.]]
96* In the first issue of the second volume of ''ComicBook/HowardTheDuck'', the story "From Hell It Cometh...Chair-Thing" ended with an implied sex scene between Howard and Beverly. All we see before the aftermath of the coitus is Beverly undressing and Howard reaching for the lamp while informing the reader that some parts of his life need to be private.
97* ''ComicBook/AllNewUltimates'': Cloak and Dagger are kissing, turn on their powers, and then we see an explosion of light from one of the church's windows.
98[[/folder]]
99
100[[folder:Comic Strips]]
101* The newspaper comic ''ComicStrip/NineChickweedLane'' uses intertwined hands as a visual euphemism.
102* In one panel of a ''ComicStrip/BeetleBailey'', Miss Buxley -- who's [[ReadyForLovemaking wearing only]] an open robe and [[LingerieScene black bra and panties]] -- calls General Halftrack to tell him that she can't come in to work because she needs to have her [[SexualEuphemism plumbing and heating repaired]]:
103-->'''Miss Buxley:''' I can't come in today, sir. I'm waiting for the [[http://www.onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/repairman repairman]]. There's a [[http://www.onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/plumbing-leak leak in my plumbing]] and a [[http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=parts&defid=2946129 missing part]] on my [[http://www.onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/heating-thingy heating thingy]].
104[[/folder]]
105
106[[folder:Fan Works]]
107* An... interesting... example in ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11886910/1/Gankona-Unnachgiebig-Unità Gankona, Unnachgiebig, Unità]]''. Just as Germany and Japan were about to pounce Italy, the scene cut short...only to continue on as commentary by [[ThePeepingTom Prussia, Spain, and France]] who were watching them via surveillance cameras [[BlatantLies under the guise of simply performing surveillance on the ship]].
108* ''Webcomic/DragonBallReboot'': [[https://www.deviantart.com/ginereboot/art/125-DBReboot-Spin-Off-ENGLISH-1000241782 Page 125]] of the spin-off contains a scene where following a SlapSlapKiss moment between Bardock and Gine, the two have a SuggestiveCollision that sees a flustered Bardock pinning an equally flustered Gine to the floor as the two lovingly stare into each other's eyes, then lean their faces close together. The next panel cuts to the outside of Gine's home at night as the lights are turned off. This is followed by a TimeSkip showing Gine pregnant with a second son as she is HappilyMarried to Bardock while they raise their son Raditz together.
109* In ''Fanfic/{{Eleutherophobia}}: Ghost in the Shell'', there are scene breaks both times Tom and Bonnie start to have sex.
110* The ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfic "[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/4496/Happy-Hearth%27s-Warming Happy Hearth's Warming]]" cuts away after the two characters enter the bedroom with the following explanation. In a subversion, though, the author later went on to write an ''uncensored'' version of the fic...
111-->I am afraid that I must tell you that I cannot relate the events that occurred in the room for it would be a horrible invasion of their privacy. I hope that you can find it in your hearts to forgive me, my dear readers.
112* ''Fanfic/BeingToTimelessness'': When the Doctor and Rose have sex, the narration skips over the explicit act, instead showing either the foreplay and a FadeToBlack, or doing a "morning after" scene. The first time, from chapter 32 to chapter 33 in ''To Make Much of Time'', the chapter ends with Rose stripping her clothes off and the Doctor carrying her to the bedroom. The skip glosses over their romantic getaway to Barcelona, and the next chapter opens on their last day, with Rose waking up naked in bed and the Doctor ready to leave. ''Taking Time'' establishes that the Doctor and Rose spent twelve days in the Vortex mostly having sex, then a week long sex-filled vacation on Barcelona.
113* ''Fanfic/SophisticationAndBetrayal'' plays this straight quite often, but also averts it on several occasions. And in one instance, it [[InnocentInnuendo deliberately uses it for comedy]] as part of a BaitAndSwitch.
114* ''Fanfic/BaitAndSwitchSTO'' used this the first two times Eleya and Gaarra slept together (justifiably so, since the fic was first posted on ''VideoGame/StarTrekOnline's'' official forum).
115** The first time the two of them didn't even make it out of Quark's. Cut to Eleya arriving on the USS ''Bajor's'' bridge the next morning and getting a "DidYouJustHaveSex" reaction from her first officer.
116** The second time they got as far as him unzipping her uniform jacket, then end chapter.
117** Averted the third time, but it's still left basically undescribed.
118* ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors'' has its sex scenes described this way, being a religious-themed story and so as to not "make atheists have an [[RougeAnglesOfSatin organism]]". One exception to this is in "Battle with the Witches" in which Draco and Ebony go to the bedroom and the sex scene is described in an odd metaphor of "Draco putting his noodles into Ebony's bowl".
119* The ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'' fanfic ''Prologue'' has Barry and Claudette going off [[MakingLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces into the woods]] to have sex:
120-->'''Barry:''' All right Kids, it's time for bed. You have a busy day tomorrow and [[DoubleEntendre Claudette and I have some... exploring to do.]] ''[Claudette smiles at that bit of innuendo; she leans into his ear and whispers]''\
121'''Claudette:''' Just what was that supposed to mean, hotshot?\
122'''Barry:''' Whatever you want it to mean. ''[[[GRatedSex Barry and Claudette walk towards the woods,]] utterly oblivious to their duties as camp counselors]''
123* Heavily implied to have happened between Jimmy Neutron and Cindy Vortex in the ''Fanfic/TimeFixersNicktoonsOfTheFuture'' story, "Return of Phantom". They kiss after making up with each other and it cuts to Darry and Dani. If [=SpongeTron's=] remark about them being locked in their room and Jimmy's embarrassment when asked what they were doing, it's pretty obvious what had occurred between them.
124* In the 22nd chapter of ''Fanfic/TheVow'', when [[spoiler:[[DatingCatwoman Lord Shen and Lady Lianne]]]] forgive each other for any perceived betrayals, they rekindle their love and kiss each other for the first time since thirty years. Giving in to their long-buried passions, they [[spoiler:combine their species' mating rituals and edge towards the bed]]. The next scene shows a content and naked [[spoiler:Lianne]] waking up.
125* Blog/AskTheMainFour plays this trope straight when Kyle is showed as being unable to sleep because of Stan and Patty being too loud. Then later is averted not so graphically. Later is HEAVILY averted.
126* In the 23rd chapter of ''Fanfic/OldWest'', Grace Glossy's confession of her feelings toward Rattlesnake Jake leads to intimacy until they [[RollInTheHay lay down in the hays]], at which point a detailed narration is abbreviated.
127* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10766595/22/Harry-Potter-Three-to-Backstep Harry Potter - Three to Backstep]]'' Harry, Hermione and Daphne consummate a three-way soul bond. After Harry undresses:
128-->That night, the castle was rattled three times over the space of two hours by what the Muggleborns were adamant were three sonic booms. The last was the loudest of all, causing the castle to shudder, ever so slightly.
129* Done in ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' to show Vegeta and Bulma's first time (and later repeated with Goku and Chi-Chi to show what is presumably at least their second, Krillin with #18 in their first time and Future Gohan and Bulma also in their first time), though it's mainly because the abridgers have to work with what source material they have. The sounds left very little to the imagination.
130* Usually in ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'', whenever sex is implied to happen between Smurf characters, it just starts with a lot of kissing and then it jumps over to the next morning or the next scene -- in some cases, a scene where something unrelated happens concurrently to the implied activity. Sometimes there is some post-coitus things going on like characters waking up with each other or something in the following scene.
131-->'''Empath's journal:''' As for this smurf and Smurfette's private times together...well, some pleasures are just better left undocumented.
132* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/12378786 Captain Proton and the Planet of Lesbians]]''. The evil Queen Sapphia is about to have her wicked way with Constance Goodheart when--THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TIME FOR BOYS AND GIRLS! [[ToBeContinued TUNE IN NEXT WEEK]] FOR ANOTHER EXCITING CHAPTER IN...CAPTAIN PROTON AND THE NAKED NYMPHOMANIACS!
133* Fanfic writer Creator/CVGWJames has written ''several'' romantic stories where the characters that get together engage in offscreen sex before the story either ends or cuts to the next scene. For example, [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13800722/1/Chris-and-Tifa-The-Search-For-Helen-by-James-M "Chris and Tifa: The Search For Helen"]] does this with Tifa and Cloud, and [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14160046/1/Team-B-War-Splats-Attack-a-RusSniper45-story "Team B: War Splats Attack"]] does this with Alexsey and Nona.

137* Parodied many times with shots of a train going through a tunnel, rockets blasting off, etc. The train going into a tunnel wasn't ''quite'' a parody when Alfred Hitchcock used it at the end of ''Film/NorthByNorthwest.''
138** This parody was subverted by a ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus'' sketch, which features a couple kissing before falling onto a bed. Cut to shots of a train entering a tunnel, rockets blasting off, towers rising, waves crashing, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Richard Nixon and the Women's Institute applauding]], planes crash landing and exploding... cut back to the woman in bed looking disgruntled, who says, "Are you actually going to do anything, or just show me films all evening?"
139** Done in ''Film/SpyHard'', where the scene cuts to StockFootage of flowers opening, bees pollinating flowers, and a rocket lifting off... and promptly flying off-course and exploding.
140%%** The best example is ''Film/TheNakedGun 2 1/2''
141* ''Film/AllCheerleadersDie'': When Tracy and Maddy sleep together in the woods, we see them kissing on the ground while they take their clothes off as the scene cuts away. The next time we see them, they're stepping out of the woods with smiles on their faces.
142* ''Film/AnotherMe'': Fay and Drew are seen kissing, undressing, then moving onto the bed. Then the scene cuts to them in bed together later.
143* ''Film/TheArcher'': While on the lam, Lauren and Rebecca kiss but then the scene cuts to the next day, with it being implied they had sex.
144* ''Film/AtMidnight2023'': lejandro and Sophie are making out at the secluded beach and the scene FadesToBlack. When we next see them in the morning after, they're cuddling in the cabana.
145* ''Film/{{Attachment}}'': Leah and Maja start to make out passionately, then the scene cuts to the pair in bed together later.
146* ''Film/{{Avatar}}'', at the Tree of Voices. It's somewhat unclear how much is offscreen, as they we Jake and Neytiri intensely making out, then a sudden stop almost like an orgasm. Then in the morning, they both are shown to be fully clothed...granted the Na'vi don't wear much anyway.
147* The last shot in ''Film/TheAwfulTruth'' shows figures of a cuckoo clock moving into the housing together.
148* ''Film/{{AWOL}}'':
149** Joey and Rayna kiss after meeting at a party. Then the scene cuts to Joey waking the next morning in Rayna's bed.
150** Later, the scene cuts while Joey and Haley are about to have sex, with the latter handing over a strap-on dildo for this.
151* Used in ''Film/BabyDoll''. Silva is invited to sleep in Baby Doll's "crib" (a sort of summer couch with slats), and Baby Doll puts a blanket over him. When we next see them, Silva is still asleep in Baby Doll's crib and Baby Doll is dressed in a slip, her hand in his. When Archie Lee comes home and they have dinner together, Silva remarks that Baby Doll is "grown-up all of a sudden". This subtly implies that something intimate has definitely gone between them.
152* In ''Film/{{Barbarella}}'': Mark Hand's ship orbiting Barbarella's is shown while they're having sex.
153* Parodied in ''Film/BeingThere''. Chance learned everything he knows from watching TV. When he tries to handle a romantic situation by imitating a romantic scene in a movie, the Sexy Discretion Shot and FadeToBlack leave him a little confused.
154* ''The Big Bounce'' (2004). The FemmeFatale takes off her panties and leads away the hunky surfer dude. Cut to surf wave breaking. Cut to her getting naked out of his bed in a ToplessnessFromTheBack shot.
155* ''{{Film/Bit}}'': The scene fades out as Laurel and Izzy start to get it on.
156* ''Film/BonnieAndBonnie'': As Yara and Kiki start to have sex, the scene fades away to afterward with them lying on the bed together.
157* ''Film/BreakingTheGirls'': Whenever a couple starts getting busy, the scene fades out to show something else, or them in bed together afterward (except for Nina and David, though it's not explicit).
158* ''Film/BruceAlmighty'': After telekinetically being given the greatest orgasm in history with [[SexGod Bruce's new God powers]], Grace pounces on him, and we simply see the outside of their apartment, as their bedrooms light flickers with holy power, and [[TheImmodestOrgasm their moans and groans of ecstasy fill the night]].
159* In ''Film/{{Caddyshack}}'', Ty Webb gives Lacey Underall a [[HappyEndingMassage massage]].
160* In ''Candy Stripe Nurses'', Candice Rialson goes to a patient's room to [[SexualEuphemism spend time with him]] and then, in the next scene, she's naked in his bed with the [[ModestyBedsheet bedsheets pulled up to her stomach]]. [[NotSafeForWork NSFW]].
161* ''Film/CassanovaWasAWoman'': Cassanova returns to have sex with Lola, and then the scene cuts, showing them lying together afterward in bed saying how good it was.
162* ''Film/{{Castaways}}'': Emily kisses Cara before they make out and start getting undressed. After this, the scene cuts to the next morning, when it's made clear that they had sex.
163* Played with in ''Film/{{Click}}''; the camera does pan away, but only far enough to show the remote going automatically to fast forward, and their shadows. The aftershot with the ModestyBedsheet shows them, but only [[SpeedSex he's satisfied]].
164* ''Film/{{Contact}}'': Ellie and Joss kiss, then are seen talking in bed together after they clearly had sex offscreen.
165* Used in-universe in ''Film/{{Cousins}}'' during Mitch's showing of his wedding video.
166* The fireplace version is justified in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' as the two lovers have been CaughtInTheRain and are warming up afterwards.
167* In ''Film/{{Downstairs}}'', Karl the evil chauffeur finally cajoles Anna the innocent (and married) ladies' maid into kissing him. Cut to the decorative figurine in a snow globe that sits on her table. The camera stays on the snow globe as Karl's coat is thrown on top of it.
168* Parodied in the spoof film ''Film/EpicMovie''. A parody of Mystique seduces the character Peter after it's revealed he'll be king of Gnarnia and drags him into a tent to have sex with him. After making out briefly, she asks him what he likes since she's a shapeshifter. He first asks for a [[BreastExpansion larger breast]] and ass size. He then asks for a badonkadonk, but quickly backpedals and insists she get a monobrow, which she does. He then asks for [[ChubbyChaser "big flabby grandma arms"]], which disgusts her. He insists on asking for [[ChubbyChaser "Bingo wings like a fat blue Britney Spears".]] She becomes increasingly more fat and flabby as he drools under her. He tells her to "Come here!". She wiggles her tongue and he pulls her down and they start to make out. It fades to black. This may have actually been a good idea as seeing them going all that way would've been... [[FanDisservice disturbing]].
169* ''Film/TheFallout'': Vada and Mia kiss, then as it begins to get more intense with Vada getting on top of her, the scene's ended. It cuts to Vada waking up the next day in Mia's bed, and confirmed later that they had sex.
170* Invoked in ''Film/ForrestGump'', where Jenny climbs into Forrest's bed and the scene fades to black.
171* ''Film/FreshmanYear'': CJ tells Marcella she could join him in the shower. The scene fades out, CJ can't remember it happened (being drunk at the time) and then it's soon related that they had sex.
172* ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'':
173** In ''Film/FridayThe13thPart2'', Ginny enters her cabin, takes her shirt off and reveals her bra. She then puts on her robe and hears a knock on the door; she goes to investigate and is never more than two steps out of her door. Ginny goes back in and Paul surprises her. They kiss and Paul unhooks Ginny's bra underneath her robe. Crazy Ralph is [[ThePeepingTom secretly watching them]] before he's garroted by Jason against the tree he is near. The next morning, Ginnny wakes up alone with "Beware of Bears" written on her mirror in lipstick.
174** ''Film/FridayThe13thTheFinalChapter'' has a couple of these scenes. The first one has the [[ThePeepingTom voyeuristic Tommy Jarvis]] looking out his bedroom window and watching some of Paul and Samantha's foreplay until he pretends to be asleep and Mrs. Jarvis pulls down the pulls the window shade down. The second scene has Jimmy sitting on the bed while Tina unbuttons her blouse.
175* ''Film/FutureWorld2018'': Ash and Lei are shown kissing as they start to undress, then lying together under the covers in bed on the next morning.
176* ''Film/GirlWithAPearlEarring'': We see Griet passionately kissing Pieter while standing outside a pub at night with her leg up along his side. There's more kissing, heavy breathing, and some partial undressing (no nudity). We later see her finishing getting dressed, thus implying additional fooling around or sex.
177* ''Film/TheGuard'': Gerry is about to have sex with the prostitutes, then the scene shifts to something else, and this returns after they've done it.
178* Danny Hodges and Judith Meyers in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELF1DCf1ChA#t=0m08s the opening]] of ''Film/Halloween1978''.
179%%* ''Hardbodies'': Kristi teaches Scotty how to use his waterbed.
180* ''Film/Heatwave2022'': In their first intimate scene Claire and Eve are kissing, undressing while they go toward the bed, then the scene cuts to them having a drink. They then start making out, with the scene cutting again.
181* ''Film/HollySleptOver'': The scene fades out when Audra, Noel and Holly take off their underwear, the latter both reaching toward his dick. Afterward they're shown in the bedroom together after clearly having had sex.
182* ''Film/HowToBlowUpAPipeline'': The scene cuts away when Rowan and Logan get busy, then shows them again after they had sex.
183%%* ''Humongous'': Sandy and Eric on the boat.
184* One of the most famous examples in film, the "Walls of Jericho," appears in ''Film/ItHappenedOneNight.'' Early in the movie, Peter (Creator/ClarkGable) and Ellie (Creator/ClaudetteColbert) find themselves sharing a hotel room; to ensure privacy, Ellie insists on hanging a sheet between the room's beds, and Peter dubs it the Walls of Jericho, referencing a famous story from Literature/TheBible featuring the walled city of Jericho; the walls fell when Joshua and his army blew their trumpets. At the end of the movie, Peter and Ellie, now married, return to the same hotel for their honeymoon, and the owner comments to a friend that for some reason, Peter demanded a trumpet while checking in. We cut to a shot of the bedroom floor, hear a horn's blow...and a sheet tumbles to the ground. That's all we need to see to know that the walls have indeed come down.
185* In the gangster spoof ''Film/JohnnyDangerously'', this is parodied (along with DidTheEarthMoveForYouToo): the titular character and his love interest start kissing passionately, the camera pans up to some fireworks... and it cuts to another character, who looks up at the fireworks and remarks "[[GenreSavvy Looks like Johnny's getting laid]]!"
186* ''Film/TheLastLegion'': Mira gets into bed with Aurelius, then the scene fades out.
187* Parodied in ''National Lampoon's Film/LoadedWeapon1'', where Creator/EmilioEstevez and Creator/KathyIreland are in bed getting ready for it. Pan over to a digital clock. The time advances by one minute, a change of a single digit. Pan back to the bed, where they are [[SmokingHotSex smoking cigarettes]]. Lampshaded later, where Kathy asks if they can actually make love next time instead of just smoking in bed.
188* A necessity in the Adrian Lyne adaptation of ''Literature/{{Lolita}}'' as it involves a man having sex with an underage girl (though the events are set in the 50s so there may be a retro look involved too). We see Dolores with MessyHair, dressed in a pyjama top sitting on the lap of a shirtless Humbert in a NoTellMotel. They rock back and forth in their chair and Dolores starts moaning, then the scene cuts to the overhead fan that's turning with a rhythmic throb.
189* In ''Film/MaidInManhattan'', the title character and her paramour embrace and sink from view. The scene fades away to be replaced by a rosy dawn as the camera pans down to them lying in bed in the afterglow.
190* ''Film/{{The Maltese Falcon|1941}}'': Sam is leaning in and kissing Brigid in the window, suddenly it's the next morning and the curtains in the window are blowing gently in the sunlight.
191* In-universe in ''Film/{{Mamma Mia}}''. Sophie has found her mother's diary from the summer when Sophie was conceived, and every time Donna is about to get intimate with one of the possible fathers, the narrative trails off with an ellipsis, read out loud by Sophie as "dot dot dot."
192* ''Film/{{May}}'': The scene fades out as Polly starts going down on May.
193* In ''Film/MeAndOrsonWelles'' this trope is both employed (when the image fades to black ofter Sonja invites Richard into the bedroom) and, in its literary form, {{discussed|Trope}}:
194-->'''Joseph Cotten:''' Welcome to "quadruple space", kid.\
195'''[[Creator/ZacEfron Richard]]:''' What's "quadruple space"?\
196'''Joseph Cotten:''' You know, in a novel, when the main characters are finally about to schtup. They can't describe it, otherwise they can't print the book. They just go, you know, "he hugged her hard, they fell on to the bed", Period, ''Quadruple space.''
197%%* ''Film/Millennium1989'': Bill Smith and Louise Baltimore.
198* In ''Film/MouseHunt'', Lars has had all of his clothes [[AllClothUnravels pulled off by the string machine]] and runs into his office completely naked. While there, he runs into his ex-wife April, who takes off her coat to show a sexy corset, causing him to drop the balls of string that used to be his clothes. Then the scene cuts to the portrait of Lars' father watching the intimacy happen with a shocked expression.
199* ''Film/Nightfall2000'': While Illyra and Metron are out in the wilderness, he invites her to lay her head on his chest as a pillow. She does, and asks him if his behavior was acceptable for a Watcher. He admits that it isn't, and they kiss, rolling over so that Metron is on top of Illyra.
200* Subverted in ''Film/OSS117CairoNestOfSpies'' -- the secret agent hero and his girl lay back on the bed, the camera pans right, to some flowers in a pot, then it pans right some more -- and we "accidentally" see some jerky, inept-looking (fully clothed) sex in a mirror for a few seconds before the camera " realizes" what's happened and quickly pans left back to the flowers.
201* The film noir classic ''Film/OutOfThePast'' features a scene where the leading man and the femme fatale walk into his villa, she trips and lands on the couch, and the camera decides it would be an ideal time to go outside and have a quick stroll in the Mexican jungle before returning to find the two of them sitting on the couch drinking whisky and laughing.
202%%* ''Film/OxfordBlues'': Nick De Angelo has a one night stand with the Las Vegas Lady.
203%%* Used twice in ''Film/OzTheGreatAndPowerful''
204%%* Double Subverted in ''Picasso Trigger'' during the hot tub sex scene between Hope Marie Carlton and Bruce Penhall. {{N|otSafeForWork}}SFW
205* In ''Film/APlaceInTheSun'', the main character and his girlfriend are slow-dancing in her room. The camera pans over to the window. The rain stops as the sky changes from night to day and her radio now plays static. . .and now we see the man leaving her house. While the pan to the window hinted at it, seeing him leave the house in the daytime confirms that he spent the night with her. The movie was made in 1951 and the scene was likely shot this way to avoid issues with the censors.
206* ''Film/PortraitOfALadyOnFire'': Marianne and Héloïse kiss, then the film cuts to show them in bed together the next morning. This also happens with their other sexual encounters.
207* The Tamil film Purantha Veeda Pukanda Veeda (1993) has a comedian whose shrewish wife finds ways to avoid him finally lose patience; lock her in their bedroom, throws her on the bed and takes her. As she screams, the camera pans to a painting of a lion pouncing on a horse.
208* Parodied in ''Film/ThePurpleRoseOfCairo'', when Cecilia and Tom Baxter (a movie character who escaped from his movie) kiss and Tom keeps expecting a FadeToBlack, because that always happens in the sex scenes of the movie he inhabits.
209-->'''Tom:''' How fascinating. You make love without fading out?\
210'''Cecilia:''' Yes.\
211'''Tom:''' Well, I can't wait to see this!
212* In ''Film/RoadTrip'', Beth decides to make a video-tape of Josh starting it as an interview of what kind of woman he likes. She proceeds to flirt with him getting undressed during the questions and then lays herself on top of John to begin making out with him on the bed. The last shot cuts back to the video-recorder on the desk still filming the off-screen sex going on between John and Beth.
213* Creator/JuliaRoberts is a self-described example:
214-->"People don't want to see me having sex... I'm the queen of the 'kiss, foreplay, dissolve.' And then the 'Whoo! Good morning, tiger!'"
215* At the end of ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights'' Robin and Marian go to unlock her chastity belt after their wedding. The camera pans out onto a skyward view of the area, except (shown through a voice-over) Robin can't open her chastity belt and begins calling for a locksmith.
216* In ''Film/TheSaragossaManuscript'' (1965), the hero embraces two sisters sitting on a bed; the camera remains fixed as the characters sink down out of the frame.
217* ''Film/{{Serenity}}'' has a slightly strange example: Simon and Kaylee start kissing and fall out of the frame, while the camera, staying in place, allows us to see River, [[WallGlower peeking at them through a hatch in the ceiling]].
218* ''Film/{{Sheroes}}'': As Ryder and Daisy prepare to join the MileHighClub, the scene shifts.
219* When Orpheus and Eurydice make love in ''Film/ShredderOrpheus'', after a couple shots of them frolicking it cuts to Orpheus's bedside motion lamp going at a fast speed to indicate the passage of time.
220* Stu, O.T. and the girls in the Corvette [[ModestyBedSheet get between the sheets]] in ''Spring Break''. {{NSFW}}
221* Double subverted in ''Film/TheStudentNurses'' when Pherd's in bed with Jim, but played straight when she's [[ModestyBedsheet between the sheets]] with another doctor.
222%%* ''Summer Job'' has a couple of these scenes. In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZnjY4kK_KY#t=41m44s first scene]], it's [[DidTheyOrDidntThey implied]] that Kathy [[ThreeWaySex had a threesome]] with Bob and Tom. In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZnjY4kK_KY#t=88m18s second]] scene, Kathy and Bruce have sex in an inflatable tent.{{NSFW}}
223* The Tamil film Thalatu Kekuthamma (1991) has the protagonist and his wife stumble into a pile of cotton. The ensuing consummation takes place under a heaving pile, accompanied by shots of swirling cotton in the air.
224* ''Film/TheThreeMusketeers1973'' uses a textbook 'candle dissolves to a much-shorter candle' shot to indicate d'Artagnan has successfully convinced Madame Bonacieux "why, that's the best place for you, bed ..."
225* ''Film/ThroughBlackSpruce'': Annie begins getting it on with Jesse on his couch. Then the scene cuts to them post-coitus while in his bed together.
226* In ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'', Film/JamesBond and Fiona Volpe's sex is represented by a Junkanoo parade. Mostly featuring a man playing a [[TheImmodestOrgasm loud horn]]. In fact, most Bond movies handle sex by way of this trope. The only ones with explicit sex scenes are ''Film/{{GoldenEye}}'' with [[TheDragon Xenia]] and the Canadian admiral she kills [[OutWithABang during the act]], and ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' with Bond and Jynx.
227* The Creator/AlfredHitchcock classic ''Film/ToCatchAThief'' plays this trope straight, but so hard that it almost seems like a parody. Check out [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le-X36HfBGI this clip]] starting at about 40 seconds in.
228%%* ''Film/ToDieFor''.
229* ''Film/TopGunMaverick'': When Maverick reunites (again) with his longtime love Penny Benjamin and they sleep together for the first time in years, the scene starts with them kissing, then essentially fades to afterglow, coming back in as Maverick confides the problems he is having with Rooster to Penny. This is possibly because the ''emotional'' intimacy between them in this scene -- representing Maverick finally allowing himself to commit to Penny after years and years of {{commitment issues}} -- is far more crucial to the course of their relationship and his overall character arc than their physical intimacy.
230* Spoofed in ''Film/TopSecret'': the hero and heroine have embraced, started kissing, and have gotten to rolling around on the furniture when we pan away to a fireplace. Then they roll onto the floor right in front of the fireplace, so the camera pans away again...to another fireplace. The director's cut has them rolling in front of ''that'' fireplace, too, forcing the camera to pan to the window... and in the window, you can see a building on fire. As if that weren't enough, a few scenes later the shot parodies ''itself'' while the characters are parachuting into enemy territory. They start kissing, we pan over to... a fireplace wearing a parachute.
231* ''Film/TheTrumanShow'' has a scene of [[ConversationalTroping two guys talking about]] a DiscretionShot, without actually showing the shot itself.
232* Judy and Scottie embrace passionately late into ''Film/{{Vertigo}}''. The next scene is of him waiting for her to finish dressing for dinner. It's not hard to imagine that they had sex in the unseen interim.
233%%* Lisa and Wyatt in ''Film/WeirdScience''.
234* In ''Film/WildTales'', as the married couple start to have sex on the table with the wedding cake, the camera pans away, focusing on the toppers on the ground... and the pieces of cake that fall all over them.
235* ''Film/WomenIsLosers'': Celina decides to have sex with Mateo, kisses him and then the scene ends, but it's made clear they did afterward (as she gets pregnant).
236* ''Film/WonderWoman2017'': After liberating Veld, Steve and Diana share an intimate moment together. Following their dance in the snow, Steve escorts Diana to her hotel room. Rather than leave, Steve enters too after Diana gives him an inviting look. They kiss passionately before the camera cuts away to the outside of the building, where the light in Diana's room is the only one still on.
237* ''Film/YoungHearts'': After Harper and Tilly decide to have sex, he gets a condom before the scene ends. The subsequent sex they have also takes place entirely offscreen, which makes sense as they're teenagers.
238%%* In ''The Young Nurses'', Matt has a [[SexualEuphemism physical therapy session]] with Nurse Kitty in the hydrotherapy tub.
239[[/folder]]
240
241[[folder:Literature]]
242* Almost certainly takes place between Dido and Aeneas in ''Literature/TheAeneid''. The two and many others go out in a hunting party but find themselves stranded alone in a cave when a rainstorm hits, and suddenly the narrator becomes very interested in describing the weather outside and doesn't get back to them for a while. When they emerge from the cave, much later, he makes an offhand remark about how Dido now considers them practically married, while Aeneas... does not so much.
243* ''Literature/AngelsAndDemons'': The novel ends with one, as Vittoria pushes Langton into the bed and [[DressHitsFloor takes off her robe]] with the final lines of dialogue being her bragging about [[SexGoddess her prowess in bed]].
244-->'''Vittoria:''' You've never been to bed with [[FlexibilityEqualsSexAbility a yoga master]], have you?
245* Done in Somoza's ''Literature/TheAthenianMurders'' by way of DirectLineToTheAuthor: a scene depicting an orgy is written on damaged papyrus, so that only (suggestive) fragments remain.
246* One of the Literary Review's "Bad Sex in Fiction" awards went to a sex scene in which a bunch of unconnected, evocative images play in the head of a female character, who must have seen way too many movies.
247* ''Literature/BazilBroketail'': This is how sex scenes are dealt with in the books. Characters will be clearly about to have sex, and then a scene will end.
248* Boris Pasternak's poem [[https://web.archive.org/web/20180618154310/http://www.friends-partners.org/friends/culture/literature/20century/pasternak/winternight.html Winter Night]] does the "pan to the candle" variety, [[ExaggeratedTrope repeatedly]].
249* ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfDorsa'': Tasia and Joslyn it turns out have sex first in the bath. It's not shown, Tasia only mentally confirms this later.
250* Occurs a few times in the tales of ''Literature/CiaphasCain'', as the chapter ends on a suggestive comment and the next one starts a day or so later. At one point, Cain's {{Love Interest|s}} Amberley (who is the InUniverse editor of the stories) cuts out a section because "it covers personal matters of no interest to anyone else".
251* Ironically used in the first ''{{Literature/Dexter}}'' novel, wherein the title character is just fine describing gory murder scenes or what he does when the Dark Passenger is driving, but when he and his girlfriend make love for the first time, he is so horrified that he can't bring himself to reflect on it in any detail.
252* In ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'''s ''Literature/MenAtArms'', the scene where [[spoiler:Carrot and Angua]] finally succumb to their romantic feelings for each other is summarized thus: "After a while, the bedsprings went ''glink''." The glinkiness of the bedsprings in question had already been established as a RunningGag in the scene.
253* Because the narration is written in a parody of 19th-century novels (especially those of Dumas), in Paarfi narrated sections of ''Literature/{{Dragaera}}'' novels, sex scenes tend to be given this kind of treatment. For example, in the section of ''Literature/{{Tiassa}}'' narrated by Paarfi, there's a scene where Khaavren, who is HappilyMarried comes home and he and his wife are chatting and being kind of intimate (they like to [[MassageOfLove give each other massages]]) and Khaavren is talking about how busy he is, but at least he's free for the rest of the evening. Then Paarfi comes in and says something to like "History does not report what they did for the rest of the evening, so he will draw a curtain over that".
254* ''Literature/{{Dragonlance}} Chronicles'':
255** In ''Dragons of Winter Night'', Gilthanas [[AccidentalPervert accidentally]] stumbles upon [[NubileSavage Silvara]] while she's [[OutdoorBathPeeping bathing outdoors]] on a [[WaterfallShower waterfall near where they're camping]]. He tries to IgnoreTheFanservice and leave, but fails as he gets [[DistractedByTheSexy too entranced]] by the sight of her [[ToplessnessFromTheBack bare back]] and she eventually notices him EatingTheEyeCandy. She's [[NakedFreakOut very perturbed by it at first]] and [[CantBatheWithoutAWeapon even reaches for her weapon]], but he manages to calm her down and they [[BathtubBonding actually have a bonding moment]]. The incident raises the UnresolvedSexualTension to the point where they both confess their feelings and the scene ends with them making out.
256** In ''The Black Wing'' novel, the VillainProtagonist dragon ([[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifted into a human in disguise]]) decides to sleep with one of her companions just out of curiosity about how sex feels like and the scene ends just as she starts making out with her lover. The very next chapter starts with them both [[PostCoitalCollapse rolling off each other post-sex]].
257* ''Literature/{{Gone}}'': In ''Plague'', Diana has a ShowerOfAngst while thinking about her NearDeathExperience in the last book. She walks back to her bedroom wrapped in a ModestyTowel to find Caine sitting on her bed. He gives her an AnguishedDeclarationOfLove that quickly progresses into them having GladToBeAliveSex, with the scene cutting away just as Diana lets her towel [[DressHitsFloor hit the floor]].
258-->"Diana took a step back, unwound the towel, and let it drop. Caine [[GibberishOfLove made a sound like a strangling animal]]."
259* ''Literature/TheHanSoloTrilogy'': Just as Han is about to have sex with Bria and later Xaverri, their scenes end.
260* ''Literature/HarryPotter'': In ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix'', Harry and Cho are about to kiss UnderTheMistletoe, and then it cuts to 30 minutes later, with him showing back up in the Griffyndor common room.
261* A parody of UsefulNotes/TheHaysCode in ''Literature/IAmAmericaAndSoCanYou'' includes the rule, "If a scene includes a train entering a tunnel, the tunnel shall not be portrayed as enjoying it."
262* ''Literature/JudgeDee'': The judge's lieutenant is sent to interrogate a girl, who [[NoPeekingRequest tells him to turn around while she's changing]]. He complies, and she turns around, [[AllWomenAreLustful clothes dropping to the floor]]. She then tells him he can turn around now, but he replies that [[WatchingTheReflectionUndress the mirror in front of him does the job just fine]] and the scene cuts away...
263* Done repeatedly in ''Literature/{{Jurgen}}'' as a not entirely successful way of GettingCrapPastTheRadar[[note]]The novel was famously prosecuted for obscenity, though the case was thrown out, and the prosecutor was lampooned in later editions as a dung beetle with a ridiculously dirty mind[[/note]] -- Jurgen repeatedly has [[UnusualEuphemism conversations]] with his love interests full of suggestive remarks about lances, spears, swords, and whatnot, but because all the conversations take place in pitch darkness, the narrative doesn't actually ''say'' that Jurgen was doing anything. [[spoiler: Becomes a plot point towards the end of the novel, when the goddess who gave Jurgen his youth back, and has been secretly spying on him for the entire novel through his shadow, remarks that she would have punished him if he'd misused the gift of youth to seduce women, but luckily for him [[ExactWords she never saw him do anything like that.]]]]
264* ''Literature/LancelotTheKnightOfTheCart''--part of the Myth/ArthurianLegend, written in the 1170s or early 1180s--is best known for being the earliest text to feature a relationship between Lancelot and Guinevere. They spend a single night together, and the sex is unambiguous but not smutty.
265-->''Their sport is so agreeable and sweet, as they kiss and fondle each other, that in truth such a marvellous joy comes over them as was never heard or known. But their joy will not be revealed by me, for in a story, it has no place. Yet, the most choice and delightful satisfaction was precisely that of which our story must not speak.''
266* In the final passage of ''Literature/TheLittleHouse'', the fair and virtuous Mélite is said to have "lost the wager." The wager being that she could withstand the charms of Marquis Trémicour's petite maison (which translates directly to "little house," but in the 1700s it was slang for a love-nest or a set of apartments kept for a mistress)... and by extension, Trémicour's sexual advances.
267--> "You told me your house would seduce me; I wagered it would not. If I now fall prey to its charms, am I unfaithful to our agreement?"
268* Creator/DorothyLSayers, author of the ''Literature/LordPeterWimsey'' series, apparently had quite definite feelings about preserving her characters' modesty (even by the standards of the times); ''Busman's Honeymoon'' has entire ''chapters'' devoted to the cause of making it clear, without referring to a single body part, that Peter and Harriet are doing rather well, thank you.
269* ''Literature/TheMachineriesOfEmpire'' short story ''Extracurricular Abilities'' ends just as Jedao and Teshet start to undress to have sex.
270* In the novel ''Literature/MadameBovary'', the eponymous character and her current paramour get into her carriage, intending to talk. The reader soon realizes that the description of [[AutoErotica the carriage rocking back and forth is representing something else]].
271* ''Literature/MaidenCrown'': The chapter that shows Sophie and Valdemar's wedding night ends with him kissing her on the forehead and then her neck before she embraces him. The next chapter makes it clear they slept together, and they feel awkward in the morning after because of it.
272* ''Literature/AMasterOfDjinn'': Fatma and Siti are moving toward sex early in the book when the scene ends, then shows them sitting together after this.
273* The third ''Literature/MercyThompson'' novel ''Iron Kissed'' actually seems to end with one. The book ends with a half-naked Mercy undressing in front of Adam. Then it's hilariously {{subverted|Trope}} in the fourth book ''Bone Crossed'', with its [[ImmediateSequel opening chapter taking place immediately after the end of the previous book]]. After undressing, Mercy attempts to seduce Adam, who was at her home to talk about what happened to her and their new relationship going forward.
274* One of the stories that made up Creator/PoulAnderson's ''Literature/OperationChaos'' is the honeymoon of the main characters. As they ride a FlyingCarpet, [[{{Magitek}} with the autopilot set]], the one narrating describes the romantic setting, "and nothing else is any of your business."
275* ''Literature/ThePrincessBride'' has a variation of this when Buttercup and Westley reunite at the bottom of the ravine in Guilder. The narrator notes that it's enough to say that they were very excited to meet each other again after three years (five in the movie). In the end, it doesn't matter anyway, for fifteen minutes later they're arguing about which direction to go. [[Film/ThePrincessBride The movie]] has the grandson asking his grandfather to skip over the kissing part. Although the short piece "Buttercup's Baby" added to the 25th-anniversary edition indicates that Buttercup and Westley didn't actually have sex (in fact, they're both virgins until they conceive the eponymous baby).
276* ''Literature/RuslanAndLudmila'': Whenever the scene gets too erotic for the 19th-century audience's liking, the narrator suddenly decides to talk about something else.
277* At a certain point during Sparhawk's wedding night in ''Literature/TheSapphireRose'', the camera decides to look out the window at the rising full moon.
278* In ''Literature/ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents'', Violet and Quigley have a similar situation where they are [[KissingDiscretionShot implied to be about to kiss before]] the [[LemonyNarrator narrator decided to give them privacy]].
279* {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in ''Literature/SoLongAndThanksForAllTheFish'', where Creator/DouglasAdams blatantly [[NoFourthWall starts talking to the audience]] and telling them that if they don't care to read about Arthur and Fenchurch's impending sex scenes, they can skip ahead to the next chapter.
280* ''Literature/SorryBro'': At the end of Chapter 13, Erebuni asks Nareh if she wants to see her bedroom. Chapter 14 starts in the wake of them having fantastic sex together.
281* ''Literature/SpyHigh'' gives Ben and Cally one of these at the end of ''Calista Green'', fading out of the scene as they snuggle in bed together [[spoiler: after reuniting.]]
282* In one of ''Literature/TheStainlessSteelRat'' books, the narrator pauses in his description of an impending love scene, handwaving it with something like "and since I never kiss and tell, let's just pull a curtain across that scene."
283* In the ''Literature/StarTrekMyriadUniverses'' story ''The Chimes at Midnight'', this got played rather straight between [[spoiler:Saavik and Davik Marcus]]:
284--> [...]Their lips met, and in perfect unison their bodies slowly sank down to the ground.\
285On the distant horizon, another volcanic mountaintop erupted, its hot magma shooting forth into the air. And the [[DidTheEarthMoveForYouToo ground once again trembled]], shaken by nature's primal throes.
286* ''Literature/StarWarsLostStars'': Whenever Ciene and Thane are clearly about to have sex, the scene's end.
287* In the Creator/EdithWharton short story "Summer", TheProtagonist and her soon-to-be lover kiss at the town festival. The reader is promptly treated to a long paragraph offering an elaborate description of fireworks going off.

289* ''Literature/ThirdTimeLuckyAndOtherStoriesOfTheMostPowerfulWizardInTheWorld'': Magdelene gets it on often with men, though never explicitly.
290** She seduces the captain in 'Third Time Lucky', then the scene cuts to after they've had sex with them lying in bed together.
291** "And Who Is Joah" ends just before she's about to have sex with Zayd.
292** In "The Last Lesson" scenes change as Magdelene starts moving toward having sex with Adar, then shows them again after.
293* ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'': In ''Breaking Dawn'', Edward and Bella arrive at their honeymoon destination. She [[ShowerScene takes a shower]] and goes out on the beach where Edward is, dressed only in a ModestyTowel. She [[DressHitsFloor takes her towel off]], he pulls her into his arms and... Oh look, it's the next morning.
294* In the book ''Literature/{{Vamped}}'', the main character/narrator digresses into an aside of this trope, which he called "Insert Fireworks Here". After speaking of his own initial annoyance with the trope, he relates how he came to appreciate its use, then ends the chapter with the stage note "Insert Fireworks Here".
295* "Literature/WhatIsThisThingCalledLove": {{Parodied|Trope}} when an [[FantasticAnthropologist alien researcher]], who has been [[GenreSavvy studying human literature]], is frustrated by the fact that stories always fade out after TheBigDamnKiss when describing human procreation. The researcher is aware there is more, it's the fact that there is never more described that frustrates them. It is also misled by the unrealistically described... hmmm... courting rituals.
296* In a TV adaptation of ''Literature/TheWimbledonPoisoner'', there are sounds of Henry and Elinor having sex, and shots of the bedroom door ajar, and the cat stretching itself out.
297* In ''Literature/TheWomanWithTheVelvetNecklace'', Hoffman and Arsene, after a wild evening of piano playing and dancing, fall into bed together. Cut to the next morning. [[spoiler: When Arsene turns out to have been DeadAllAlong.]]

301* ''Series/{{Andor}}'': In "[[Recap/AndorS1E2ThatWouldBeMe That Would Be Me]]" though nothing's explicitly stated, Bix clearly invites Timm to sleep with her. As he moves forward when she's sitting on the bed, the scene fades out. Bix's shown lying there in bed on the next morning.
302* ''Series/AverageJoe'': Melana Scanlon and Jason Peoples continue their smooching [[AutoErotica in the limo]] and when the windows fog up, the camera cuts away as their smooching turns into heavy petting.
303* In every season of ''Series/TheBachelor'', the three finalists are invited to spend the night with the bachelor in the "Fantasy Suite." The camera regularly pulls away from the couple kissing and out the window or behind the closing door. This is done regardless of whether the couple actually slept together or not.
304%%* In the MadeForTvMovie ''Bare Essentials'' shows Sydney and Gordon getting freaky on the boat.
305* ''Series/BetterCallSaul'':

307** "Something Unforgivable": Over dinner, Jimmy and Kim begin fantasizing about ways to get back at Howard after Howard offended Kim by insinuating that he thinks Jimmy manipulates her.

309* ''Series/{{Blackadder}}'': In "The Queen of Spain's Beard" from the first series, when Baldrick has been sent into the Infanta's bedroom to take her virginity, the room is very dark so nothing is seen; only occasional sounds, including Baldrick yelling for help, and the interpreter translating everything Baldrick and the Infanta say.
310* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
311** When Buffy sleeps with Angel in Season 2, Angel(us) flees from a bed that Buffy is asleep on, and later there is a misty flashback scene of the two kissing while lying in Angel's bed. (okay, it's a bit more than just kissing, but still far from anything explicit)
312** Played with in another episode; Andrew is making an amateur documentary, and comes across Willow and Kennedy kissing on the couch. He says "Here's something our viewers might find interesting" - then focuses on a window frame and starts speaking admiringly about how well Xander repaired it. This was taken by some fans as less a discretion shot and more a hint that [[HoYay Andrew wasn't like other boys, though he probably still liked them]].
313** Not to mention the ''rocking police car'' in "Band Candy". Later explicitly revealed in no uncertain terms that Joyce and Giles had sex there. On the ''hood'' of the car. ''Twice''.
314** When Faith does a GrandTheftMe she hops into bed with Buffy's boyfriend Riley Finn, whereupon the scene cuts away to Willow and Tara casting a spell with heavy sexual overtones.
315* The 1987 miniseries ''Series/{{Casanova}}'', starring Creator/RichardChamberlain, begins with a scene where Casanova, on the lam from the authorities, jumps into a stagecoach occupied by a grand lady played by Creator/FayeDunaway and her two pretty "nieces". After some double-entendre talk and Casanova hiding under the skirt of one of the young ladies (and playing with her satin garters), one of the girls faints face-first into Casanova's lap, Casanova smirks in surprised delight, and the camera cuts away to a shot of the stagecoach rolling down the road, while the footmen posted on the back of the coach crane their necks to get a view of the goings-on inside.
316* ''Change of Heart'': In one episode of the dating GameShow, Jesse and Kathy talk out their date on the show with her boyfriend Marcus sitting next to them:

337'''Jesse:''' We had six bottles. We didn't drink all of them.\
338'''Chris:''' Marcus, you wanted to say something here?\

343'''Chris:''' And then Jesse, what happened next?\
344'''Jesse:''' Well, we went up, we [[TwoPersonPoolParty jumped in the jacuzzi]].\
345'''Kathy:''' [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial With our clothes on.]] We had clothes on.\
346'''Jesse:''' We had clothes on. I had [[WalkingSwimsuitScene my bathing suit]] and I gave her a T-shirt and boxers. And I don't remember too much after that. I had a few glasses of wine. I know we ended falling asleep in my bed and the next thing I know, it's the morning.\

Mac Taylor's first serious love interest (after having lost his wife on 9/11 - 3 years before the series began), Dr. Peyton Driscoll, M.E., in the season 3 premiere, "People with Money" by showing the two of them in bed, having obviously just had sex.

424* This developed a visual gag in the older British satirical comedy show, ''Series/ThatWasTheWeekThatWas'' [=(TW3)=]. Sometime around 1962, comedian Creator/WillieRushton was seen getting into bed with an impossibly glamorous actress/model type. Amid giggling and sighing, foreplay ensues. The camera then cuts to stock footage of waves crashing against rocks, tall chimneys falling, train going into tunnels, etc. We cut back to Willie Rushton and girl, who are still in bed - but soaked through from the waves, covered in brick dust and rubble from the chimney, and smothered in soot from the steam train. She is screaming. He is wide-eyed with panic.
425--> ''Every bloody time we try something, all that bloody lot happens!''
426* In ''Series/TheThornBirds'' "midquel" ''The Missing Years'', as Luke and Meggie fall onto the bed, the camera pans up to the window. Night changes to day and when the camera pans back, they're asleep in each other's arms, obviously post-coital.
427* In the ''Series/{{Titans|2018}}'' episode "[[Recap/TitansS1E5Together Together]]", Dick and Kory stand making out in a motel room, Dick loses his ModestyTowel (although the audience doesn't see anything) they fall onto the bed and it fades to black. The next shot, they're getting dressed and Kory asks Dick to [[ZipMeUp zip up her dress]].
428* ''Series/{{The Umbrella Academy|2019}}'': In "[[Recap/TheUmbrellaAcademy2019S02E03 The Swedish Job]]" as they start to undress before having sex, the shot cuts away from Diego and Lila, showing them only behind some tinted glass indistinctly.
429* ''Series/TheUndeclaredWar'': Saara kisses Kathy, they start undressing on the couch, then the next scene shows them in bed together after they've had sex.
430* In the series finale of ''Series/TheVicarOfDibley'', the eponymous Vicar and her love interest disappear upstairs while the camera stays on the front door... which is then knocked upon, repeatedly, as parishioners continually interrupt. Finally, everybody leaves and the camera pans to the sky - and fireworks go off over the house.
431* ''Series/{{Victoria}}''. A relatively rare example of a post-UK-watershed historical drama made in the 2010s where discretion shots are used in place of sex scenes. Particularly notable as several of the episodes in this biography of Queen Victoria feature plotlines that are ''specifically about sex'', and are based upon Victoria's own, often-racy, personal diaries. Show creator/writer Daisy Goodwin later wrote a lengthy newspaper column for a major UK newspaper explaining her decision not to be explicit and generally bemoaning the overuse of sex scenes in modern-day TV and film.
432* A second-season episode of ''Series/TheWalkingDead2010'' titled "Triggerfinger" has Andrea (exhilarated by Shane Walsh teaching her how to fire a gun under pressure) comes on to Shane during the car ride back from their training ground. She climbs on top of him and they begin kissing, then the camera cuts to a distant shot of the car, with the horn honking several times and rocking around.
433* ''Series/WandaVision'': In the second episode, which is a spoof of ''Series/{{Bewitched}}'', Wanda and Vision are initially sleeping in twin beds, then Wanda seizes on the opportunity to [[SleepingSingle slide the beds together]] and combine them into one.[[note]]In the 1950s, the Hays Code still forbid any implication of onscreen intimacy. Samantha and Darrin Stephens on ''Bewitched'' were the first TV couple not already married in real life to share a bed onscreen[[/note]]
434-->'''Vision:''' Wanda, darling.\
435'''Wanda:''' Yes, dear?\
436'''Vision:''' Get the light.\
437''[They pull the covers over their heads and Wanda snaps her fingers to turn off the lights]''
438* ''Series/WarOfTheWorlds2019'': Emily and Kariem's tryst is off-screen. After they're shown getting undressed, the scene fades to them lying beneath a blanket together afterward.
439* ''Series/TheWheelOfTime2021'':
440** Rand and Egwene begin to kiss passionately as they embrace, then the next scene shows them after they've had sex.
441** Very similarly, [[spoiler:Moiraine and Siuan]] have a passionate reunion tryst that is not explicitly shown.
442** Lan with Nynaeve while resting in Fal Dara. Also, again Rand and Egwene.
443* ''WesternAnimation/WhenDinosaursRoamedAmerica'' did this with a pair of mating ''Stegosaurus'' by panning up as they get intimate, although this has more to do with pragmatism rather than fear of vulgarity, because we honestly have no real clue how stegosaurs actually did it (since their huge and iconic dorsal plates would obviously prevent traditional mounting).
444* ''Series/YumisCells'': The "Couple T-shirts" scene from the webcomic plays out similarly but goes a bit farther. After Yumi tells Woong not to go out in the couple t-shirt, he takes it off and cancels his plans to go out. They cuddle as the camera pans to the removed shirt.
445[[/folder]]
446
447[[folder:Music]]
448* Music/RodStewart's song "Do You Think I'm Sexy?". The listener is treated to a ''long'' musical interlude -- [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything with beats of music that are clearly meant to invoke something]] -- as the protagonist arrives home with his one-night stand, and the interlude ends with them waking up the next morning, quite happy and content.
449* "FadeToBlack" by Music/DireStraits is a variation, with the singer imagining what the woman is doing with someone else.
450* "Behind Closed Doors" by Charlie Rich. The title [[TitleDrop explains itself]].
451* Music/SteelyDan's "Haitian Divorce" includes the lyrics "The band was hot so/They danced the famous Merengue/Now we dolly back/Now we fade to black," followed by the musical interlude.
452* K.T. Oslin has the [[SexTourism female sex tourism]] song "Mexico Road" with these lyrics:
453-->''We'll feel some muscles\
454We'll tell some jokes\
455We'll write the wrong phone numbers on their shirts\
456'Cause I'm not lookin' to fall in love\
457You know I'm not lookin' to fall in love\
458So meet me down on Mexico Road\
459I'm in the mood to meet some men\
460Meet me down on Mexico Road\
461We'll drive a little while to a place we've never been''
462* Music/BritneySpears' "Toy Soldier" has the lyrics "When I shut the door leaving with my bag, hit the scene in my new wagon/Bet he wish he knew the kind of fun I'm getting into/ Peek-a-boo, he good... doing things you wish you could."
463* The Lost Boyz song "Renee" describes a romantic interlude between the narrator and the eponymous love interest: "She started feelin' on my chest/ I started feelin' on her breasts... and there's no need for me to stress the rest." Indeed.
464* The Barry Manilow & K.T. Oslin cover of "Baby It's Cold Outside" during the final verse:
465-->''Let me take your coat, well tomorrow's Sunday isn't it?\
466And I don't have to go to work, see, isn't that better?\
467And who knows how long it'll keep snowing?\
468It can snow for a long time, Kate, what are you doing?\
469Well now, yeah [K.T. starts giggling]''
470* "Paper Thin Hotel" by Music/LeonardCohen has a {{Cuckold}} recounting what [[TheImmodestOrgasm he heard]] when listening to [[MyGirlIsASlut his woman]] having sex with another man.
471* Heard in a verse of Music/RoxyMusic's danceable ode to pickup bars, "Love Is the Drug.":
472-->''Lumber up, limbo down\
473The locked embrace, stumble round\
474I say go, she say yes\
475Dim the lights, you can guess the rest''
476[[/folder]]
477
478[[folder:Music Videos]]
479* Music/SaraEvans [[TakeOurWordForIt and the first three guys]] in the video for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31UEGl9tvX8 As If]]".
480* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7e16vp0dBM The video]] for ''Selfish" by Music/BritneySpears has quite a few of these scenes.
481* At the end of the music video for Avicii and Rita Ora's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ3XgMKAgxc "Lonely Together"]], the two lead characters are laid down on a mattress, covered in paint, as the girl starts to tear the guy's shirt open. The scene then cuts to a close-up of Rita's face for a few seconds, before going back to the couple, now naked and lovingly embracing.
482[[/folder]]
483
484[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
485* ''Literature/TheBible'': Literature/SongOfSongs chapter 4 cuts out just before they get it on.
486[[/folder]]
487
488[[folder:Print Media]]
489* ''TV Picture Life'': In an article titled ''Cheryl Ladd's Husband Storms Out As She Strips At Wild Hollywood Party'', these are the salacious details about [[Creator/CherylLadd Cheryl Ladd]] [[APartyAlsoKnownAsAnOrgy engaging in group sex at a wild Hollywood party]]:
490-->[[HookersAndBlow Hollywood can boast partied]], it indeed looked like before the evening would end the bash would have made a special little niche for itself in the annals of Hollywood high life. Before the evening was out, many of the guests were stripping totally nude and hurling themselves into the luxurious swimming pool on the premises. [[EverybodyHasLotsOfSex Ladies and gents alike]] [[SkinnyDipping were leaping into the water]] with complete abandon.\
491Ironically, one of the beautiful actresses at the party, who proceeded to disrobe and go skinny dipping was a lady who no-one would have expected to engage in such hijinks. She was no other than Cheryl Ladd!
492** In the article, she's still fully clothed in the only published photo of her at the party.
493[[/folder]]
494
495[[folder:Theatre]]
496* In ''Theatre/{{Aida|JohnRice}}'', Radames and Aida embrace passionately at the end of their duet "Elaborate Lives". The scene fades out. Their positions vary when it fades back in--sometimes she's fully dressed, other times, her dress is wrapped around her in ModestyBedsheet style. But the fact that he's shirtless makes it pretty obvious what's happened between them.
497* In ''Theatre/MissSaigon'', the lights begin to dim as Chris and Kim undress, then fade out completely as they get into bed. There's similar staging during his later love scene with Ellen.
498* ''Theatre/WestSideStory''. At the end of their duet "Somewhere", Tony and Maria kiss and sink from view. By the time the scene returns to her room, it's obvious what's transpired--they're both wearing little more than their underwear.
499* Possibly in ''Theatre/ThePhantomOfTheOpera''. The lights go out at the conclusion of "Music of the Night", leading to endless speculation by fans that sex may have occurred between the Phantom and Christine.
500* In ''Theatre/SouthPacific'', Joe takes off his shirt, Liat removes hers... and the lights go out as they embrace and fall to the floor.
501* ''Theatre/{{Wicked}}'' has a variation in "As Long As You're Mine", which is pretty obviously about sex. The lights dim, and theatrical fog covers everything below the actors' chest as they kiss and embrace, implying that they're doing it.
502* Lampshaded in ''Theatre/{{Allegro}}'': Joe is carrying Jenny off to bed, and the GreekChorus says, "That's all, brother!" as the lights fade.
503* Nathan and Richard are ''really clearly'' having sex in ''Theatre/ThrillMe''-- up to and including kissing, pulling clothing off, and having a written contract signed in blood that they'll have sex at certain times (yep), but the lights always shift before anything actually happens.
504* Discussed in the song "I'm Blue Too" from the 1967 musical ''Henry, Sweet Henry'', where a character describes a love scene from a Creator/SandraDee movie:
505-->''He did take her in his arms, but when she started to respond\
506The camera faded to a picture of two bullfrogs in a pond\
507And it was left up to the audience, who still don't know today\
508Did Sandra Dee go all the way?''
509[[/folder]]
510
511[[folder:Video Games]]
512* Sex scenes in the ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'' games always fade to black or skip ahead to later before you see much more than some kissing:
513** ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII'':
514*** At the beginning, Ezio pays Cristina a visit. A quick-time event lets you slide off her dress, but the view is of her back, and after he pushes her towards the bed, the scene skips to the next morning, where we are given a [[SarcasmMode fascinating]] view of the house as we hear Cristina's father [[MyGirlIsNotASlut open her door and find the two together]].
515*** Later in the same game, Desmond has a dream that follows Altaïr's memory of chasing someone around Acre. When they both get to the top of the tower, the "target" is revealed to be [[spoiler:Maria]]. Much to Desmond's surprise, they begin to kiss passionately. The scene briefly pans over them from a greater distance; then the scene fades to black and jumps ahead to them both lying on a bed of straw, though they are still fully clothed (which in Altaïr's case includes several layers of Assassin robes and all his weapons and armor).
516*** There's also a side mission where Ezio helps a girl called Amelia win a bet. In return, she gives him a "private riding lesson", which involves kissing him and dragging him to the ground. End memory.
517** At one point in ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedUnity'', Arno and [[spoiler: Élise]] float away on a hot air balloon, kissing passionately. Fade to black, and when we next see Arno, he's waking up in the crashed balloon, with a note from his beloved.
518* ''VideoGame/BaldursGateIII'': One HighClassCallGirl (or Call Boy) has a {{justified|Trope}} fade-to-black -- they [[CastingAShadow conjure up magical darkness]] to set the mood.
519* In the ''VideoGame/{{Fable}}'' games, the player can choose to sleep with their spouse, lover, or a prostitute. Doing so cuts to a black screen, with the partner's comments heard.
520* In ''VideoGame/StarControl 2'' you can seduce Captain Talana. The screen goes black, but you can still read their sexy dialog: "Cowabunga!"
521* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'':
522** In ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas'', the player can choose to have CJ sleep with his girlfriends. If he does so, the camera shows the outside of the house while you hear the sounds of lovemaking coming from inside. Amusingly, Rockstar was actually planning to allow the player to control the sex scenes but scrapped it to avoid the game getting an Adults Only rating. When the cut sex scenes were later discovered, it spawned the infamous [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_coffee Hot Coffee mod controversy.]]
523** It also happens in the intro to the "Gone Courting" mission, where Catalina decides to jump C.J.'s bones, and from what she brings into the encounter in question, she's into S&M in a big way.
524** Not to mention, the player can pick up hookers on the street and take them to a quiet area for some ''fun''. This causes the car to rock violently, but nothing can be viewed... Unless you change the camera to see inside the car, when both the player's character and his prostitute just sitting there, facing forward and not moving, the sounds apparently coming from nowhere.
525** This is played with in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV''. If Niko sleeps with one of his girlfriends you get the Sexy Discretion Shot, but if you hire a prostitute and swing the camera around you can see ''exactly what's she's doing.''
526** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIVTheBalladOfGayTony'' plays with this further. Luis is outright shown having sex in various cutscenes, but if you have him answer to a Booty Call you're once again treated to a discretion shot.
527* Similar to GTA, ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' also allows the player to get some action off-screen while pressing the displayed buttons. Subverted in ''[[VideoGame/GodOfWarIII III]]''. While you're boinking Aphrodite offscreen, her handmaidens are doing foreplay ''onscreen''. Played straight when, upon completion, you get to see the two handmaidens preparing to have sex on the floor as the camera returns to Kratos.
528* ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'':
529** In ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 3|AbsenceOfJustice}}'', a [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]] teaches a class on how to "influence" people. We don't see her "lecture", just the male characters' reactions.
530** The Succubus has a skill called Dazzling Stage, wherein she puts on a strip show for her targets. About 2-3 frames before her cape dissolves enough to expose her entire body, a [[WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties "technical difficulties"]] screen appears long enough that when it disappears, the dance is already over and her outfit is back on her.
531* In ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'', there are some events where you can have sex with your love interest. There's a bit of foreplay, and then the screen fades to black as the narration then shifts to the aftermath.
532* In the ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'' games from ''VideoGame/Persona3'' onward, when the main character is alone with a romanced love interest, the screen will fade out with some sort of statement about 'spending a long time together' or 'sharing an intimate moment'.
533** ''VideoGame/Persona4'' has a particularly blatant example with [[spoiler: Naoto]] on her Christmas date. She gives you one of a pair of watches that have a simple tracking mechanism. Shortly after, the screen fades to black and there's only one message. [[spoiler:"Distance < 1m."]]
534** In ''VideoGame/Persona5'', if you're dating someone, you get the option to invite them back to your room, which causes a fade to black and little hearts to fly out from Joker's portrait.
535* ''VideoGame/{{Overlord}}'' does this when you've bought everything your romantic interest wants. The one with the "good" (more psychotically obsessed with order) option girl is particularly amusing as you catch her increasingly out of breath lecture on military tactics. One will never react to the phrase "pincher movement" the same again.
536* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'':
537** In the denouement of ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'', a romantic evening between [[spoiler:Naked Snake and EVA]] ends with the camera panning over to the fireplace before cutting to [[spoiler:Snake]] waking up, bare-chested. If the player manages to make it all the way to the waterfall cave without [[spoiler:extracting the TrackingDevice from Snake's leg]], you'll be treated to a rather amusing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9FO-USlA7Y lampshade]] of this trope. [[RightThroughHisPants But with his pants on]]...
538** And in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots'', a cutscene shows Naomi and Otacon dancing around some awkward flirting, near-kisses, and UST before (at her request) he shows her to a private bunk on the plane (presumably, so she wouldn't have to bunk with the lads). She vanishes within, and he loiters outside it for a minute or so before she reaches out and yanks him inside. End cutscene.
539** If Big Boss successfully manages to reach maximum [[DatingSim affection]] with Paz or [[GayOption Kaz]] in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidPeaceWalker'', and chooses to have sex with them, we see his partner hop inside his cardboard box with him, which then starts jostling suggestively as little hearts appear above it.
540* One of the cities in ''VideoGame/JaggedAlliance 2'' has an, um, establishment where, if you drop a few hundred bucks to the nice madam at the door, the usual map view changes to a smiley face while happy noises and glinking bed-springs are heard. (The scene is [[DummiedOut not accessible]] in all versions of the game, though.)
541* In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII''. The night before the final battle, if Cloud has obtained enough love points [[ChildhoodFriendRomance with Tifa]], he tries confessing his love to her. When he is unable to find the words Tifa suggests expressing how he feels without words. Cue fade to black. With Cloud and Tifa laying on each other the next morning.
542* The romance scenes in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'', which may have been a reaction to all the hubbub surrounding the ones in the first game. The most we get is a shot of Miranda's undergarments, the others cut out before either party starts taking anything off.
543** [[TheUnreveal Apart from Tali's mask.]]
544** [[ShirtlessScene And Jacob's shirt.]]
545* ''VideoGame/JadeEmpire'' gives us the kiss for different-sex couples and some lines implying that more is about to happen, but nothing more than that. The same-sex couples fade to black before the kiss even happens. If you manage to romance both Dawn Star and Silk Fox, they will [[AThreeSomeIsHot both be happy to share a tent with you]], but it still fades to black before you kiss either.
546* The PC title ''VideoGame/LeisureSuitLarry'' loves this trope, as it is by nature, a tongue-in-cheek sex comedy. Most noteworthy is the use of it in Larry 7 when nudist Drew Baringmore shouts that Larry [[MyEyesAreUpHere look her in the eyes]] seconds before the wandering camera gets a chance to reach too far down below her chest. And averted in Larry 7 if you look for the easter eggs. If Larry is wearing earplugs, he will fail to hear Drew's request to look at her eyes and the camera will continue wandering down. If you get 100% completion, you're also treated to a second or two of Larry and Captain Thygh doing the nasty.
547* Farah and the Prince get one in ''VideoGame/PrinceOfPersiaTheSandsOfTime''.
548* Used in ''VideoGame/ConquestsOfTheLongbow'' with a {{lampshade|Hanging}} from the narrator about giving the characters some privacy.
549* In ''VideoGame/DefenderOfTheCrown'', when the player rescues a DamselInDistress they are treated to a cutscene that shows the two of them having a late-night rendezvous where the female drops her clothes to the floor (although she's seen from behind so no actual nudity is shown). The game then cuts to a shot from outside the window where the silhouettes of the two lovers embrace before the screen fades to black.
550* ''Franchise/DragonAge'':
551** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' is normally not shy about its sex scenes, but when Morrigan does her DeusSexMachina towards the end of the game, she climbs atop the man in question then blows out the candle by the bed.
552** In ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'', the love scenes generally involve this. Given a call back in the third game in a specific bit of banter.
553--->'''Varric:''' I usually describe a fireplace by this point...
554* ''[[VideoGame/DragonsLair Dargon's Lair 3D]]'': Used as the end final shot of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZoFGLLPmOw the special edition ending.]] Daphne gets zapped in her rear end by Mordroc, which causes her to clench her teeth and bite Dirk as they're [[SmoochOfVictory making out.]] But they quickly brush it aside and resume offscreen, where the last sound the audience hears is Daphne giggling before she suddenly gasps, "Oh!"
555* In ''VideoGame/DemonGaze'', the night before you go get the Demon Slayer, your main character goes to Fran's room in which she confesses her feeling for you. Then the game fades to black and returns to the next morning where she is seen in her underwear. Implying that you have slept together.
556* The PSP game, ''Literature/SwordArtOnline Infinity Moment'' and its UpdatedRerelease on PS Vita, ''Hollow Fragment'' has a sidequest in which Kirito has to fix his marriage with Asuna. After the sidequest, there is an event in which Kirito and Asuna are going for a second honeymoon. In the end, Asuna will ask Kirito to sleep with her for the night. After a fade to black and a rather suggestive line from Asuna, the game cuts from next day, and you are greeted to a CG of Asuna naked with a ModestyBedsheet. It's pretty clear what has happened.
557* ''VideoGame/Uncharted2AmongThieves'' has one where Chloe makes out with Nathan Drake in bed and the scene ends when they start going further.
558* ''VideoGame/Haven2020'' makes it abundantly clear that Kay and Yu are a sexually active couple, but opts to not depict anything explicit. Any cutscene that leads into them doing the deed simply ends before it gets too raunchy.
559[[/folder]]
560
561[[folder:Visual Novels]]
562* ''VisualNovel/AmnesiaMemories'', from ''Later'' onward, may show the heroine getting romantic with the boyfriend in question, but the scene fades to black and goes on to the next day of the route. With some of the writing, it could even be assumed to have been a trick discretion shot, when no actual intimacy has taken place.
563* The "Love Suite" scenes of ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony'' fade to black when they're completed, although it's sometimes left ambiguous what Shuichi and the person he met with did. In the case of Shuichi and his ImpliedLoveInterest Kaede Akamatsu, it's all but stated they made love.
564[[/folder]]
565
566[[folder:Web Animation]]
567* Believe it or not, this shows up in ''WebAnimation/BarbieLifeInTheDreamhouse'', a children's TV web series with [[ParentalBonus plenty of treats for the adults watching]]. In a Valentine's Day episode, Ken's rival Ryan imagines himself giving Barbie various presents for the holiday, and Barbie gushing over how wonderful he is. In the last fantasy, Ryan and Barbie are alone together in a cozy room, complete with fireplace and bearskin rug. Barbie slowly approaches Ryan...who immediately turns to the audience and remarks that "this fantasy is too good to share," ending our view of the scene. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids Yep, kids watched this.]]
568[[/folder]]
569
570[[folder:Web Comics]]
571* In ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', the "camera" pulls away to a view of the outside of the inn as [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0400.html Elan and Haley start making out]].
572* In ''Webcomic/{{Misfile}}'': Missi tries to kiss Ash, but is [[DerailingLoveInterests Denied]]. Missi proclaims her desire, so Ash [[ShutUpKiss goes for it]]. [[http://www.misfile.com/index.php?page=923 Missi pushes Ash back on the bed]]... oh, look, there's one of those mood candles!
573%%* In the Webcomic/CiemWebcomicSeries, scenes were constantly cutting out right after a makeout scene.
574* ''Webcomic/MagickChicks'': Faith and her boyfriend, Ash, got it on in the park. In the upper-left panel, Ash's thumb is hooked in the waistband of her panties, [[https://pixietrixcomix.com/magick-chicks/stop-teasing pulling them partway down.]] The next page shows them [[https://pixietrixcomix.com/magick-chicks/self-involved getting dressed.]]
575* ''WebComic/SandraOnTheRocks'' does this by immediately cutting away to [[http://www.sandraontherocks.com/strips-sotr/holy_highballs Sandra's reaction]], once her manager Zoe and her ex-husband [[SexWithTheEx throw themselves at each other]] after [[BelligerentSexualTension their shouting match]]. This leads to [[http://www.sandraontherocks.com/strips-sotr/sex_the_other_into_submission an hour]] of off-panel DestructoNookie until [[SexGoddess Zoe]] emerges victorious.
576* ''WebComic/VampireCheerleaders'': After failing to [[https://web.archive.org/web/20110925085053/http://www.vampirecheerleaders.net/strips-vc/half-time_4 silence Leonard]], near the end of vol.1, Lori resorted to buying his silence by implementing [[https://web.archive.org/web/20111110191628/http://www.vampirecheerleaders.net/strips-vc/half-time_5 "Plan BC"]]: which called for the cheerleading team to screw him senseless. In the very next scene, he happily agreed to keep mum [[https://web.archive.org/web/20120116081634/http://www.vampirecheerleaders.net/strips-vc/half-time_7 about them being vampires.]]
577* ''Webcomic/{{Prequel}}'' does this a few times--namely, with Katia deciding to have a drink, and [[http://www.prequeladventure.com/2011/03/164/ winding up in bed with an orc]], [[NoodleImplements a unicorn, a fishbowl full of peas, a sword, some paint doodles...]] Elsewhere, Katia's [[http://www.prequeladventure.com/quill-weave-take-control-of-the-situation/ trick with the pineapple and the yo-yo]], almost certainly sexual, considering that she has to be nude and drunk to do it and usually winds up having sex shortly thereafter.
578* ''Webcomic/{{Girly}}'' uses characters frolicking in a meadow with cute animals as a shorthand for sex. [[spoiler:This ends up becoming a ChekhovsGag in the final arc when Winter and Otra having sex onscreen causes all those animals to ZergRush the BigBad and [[WorldHealingWave undo the damage they did to the city]].]]
579* Zig-zagged in ''Webcomic/TheManorsPrize'' The comic cuts away to a different scene right before a sex scene starts for a few pages, then cuts right back into the sex scene.
580* ''Webcomic/DarkestNight'': The scenes change when Mags gets intimate with Ava. Later this also happens when Mags has sex with Nessa.
581* ''Webcomic/YumisCells'':
582** After Yumi decides to stay the night at Woong's place for the first time, the next chapter cuts to the morning after and claims that they fell asleep holding hands. Someone poses the question of whether [[DidTheyOrDidntThey a chunk of the story has been left out]].
583** One episode begins with Woong suddenly kissing Yumi, followed by them both using flirty skills. It ends with the lights turning off and fireworks going off outside.
584** Yumi buys couple t-shirts for herself and Woong, and he tries one on. When Woong is about to head out to meet a friend, Yumi yanks his shirt off and says that shirt isn't meant for sports, so Woong cancels his plans.

591* One ''WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum'' episode has just-married Agents going to the [[Franchise/HarryPotter Room of Requirement]] for a break and skips from when they're obviously about to get ReadyForLovemaking to when they're lying together sometime after sex.
592* The Phase novels in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': Phase and his girlfriend Vox are no longer virgins. But every time such a scene occurs, Phase (the narrator) skips over the details. Once he [[BreakingTheFourthWall flat out tells the reader]] "it's none of your business".

595[[folder:Western Animation]]
596* This happens occasionally in the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse.
597** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanMaskOfThePhantasm'' does this twice with Bruce Wayne and Andrea Beaumont (one in flashback). Both times, the camera pans away to a slightly ajar doorway, in which Alfred appeared, muttered a quick "Oh my", and moved away. But subverted the first time, as the camera pans to them making out on the grass. The second time, however, it is made clear exactly what went on off-screen, especially in the scene afterwards, it shows Andrea sitting on the balcony gazing at the sea, wearing ''nothing'' but [[SexyShirtSwitch Bruce's shirt]]. Bruce himself is seen wearing nothing but pants.
598** ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'': After finally admitting they have feelings for each other [[ComicBook/GreenLantern John Stewart]] and Shayera Hol kiss for the first time on a recovery bed, with the backdrop of space lighting the area. It then cuts to a woman who'd [[ChekhovsGun been seen earlier]] playing a slot machine at a Las Vegas casino winning the jackpot and proclaiming "finally!"
599** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'':
600*** Terry and [[DatingCatwoman Ten]] are kissing, then fall onto Terry's bed and the camera slowly moves away...
601*** In the episode "Sneak Peek", which Terry watches a news program "The Inside Peek" that exposes secrets, especially one involving Paxton Powers. We see him grabbing a girl with his towel and it cuts to Terry's awkward look which leads to this scene:
602---->'''Matt:''' What are they doing?\
603'''Terry:''' This isn't for you. ''[puts hand on Matt's face blocking his view]''\
604'''Matt:''' I wanna see, I wanna see!\
605''[Mary turns off TV]''\
606'''Terry and Matt:''' Hey!\
607'''Mary:''' I don't want you watching this.
608* Happens in ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest'' of all things. Johnny and Dukey go into a movie theater to watch the Purple Space Cats Movie. As the movie plays, they gets to a scene where the female purple space cat love interest asks the protagonist of the movie if he will lick her back, and then the scene cuts to Johnny and Dukey looking disgusted.
609* ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'':
610** While Grandpa Phil reads Arnold's father's journal, he accidentally stumbles upon the chapter of their wedding night...
611--->'''Grandpa:''' It was the hottest night the jungle had ever had... ''[starts mumbling as we see Miles and Stella move in on each other, then promptly closes the book]'' Okay Arnold, time for bed!
612** Again when Grandpa Phil is telling Arnold and Gerald about when he fought in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII he ends up staying overnight in a barn, when the farmer's daughter comes in saying she's scared and lonely, but before he can get further, Gerald's dad interrupts saying [[NotInFrontOfTheKid this part of the story may not be appropriate for nine-year-olds.]]
613* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' subverts this trope for laughs. Instead of changing the shot during a provocative scene, it switches from two women about to kiss to the two women having sex.
614* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Not shying away about sex even when left to the imagination, this trope happens in several episodes:
615** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS8E19GradeSchoolConfidential Grade School Confidential]]" has Principal Skinner and Edna Krabappel having a conversation, eating applesauce, and then sharing a kiss in Edna's apartment only to make out on the kitchen floor, thus explained with the Charlie Brown wax candle burning down to its feet.
616** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS12E3InsaneClownPoppy Insane Clown Poppy]]": In Krusty's flashback about how Krusty met Sophie's mother in the Gulf War, we see Krusty and her kissing and embracing each other in an army tent and then it pans to the window shot of the burning torches in the desert which 'burned out' like candles in the morning.
617--->'''Krusty:''' There was your mother -- looking like a beautiful mirage. Maybe it was the anthrax in the air, maybe it was the fact that the Arab women weren't biting, whatever it was, it was magic.

623--->'''Homer:''' ''[sighs]'' I love you, Marge.\
624'''Marge:''' I love you too, Homey.\
625'''Homer:''' Everything in our lives is finally perfectly balanced. I hope things stay exactly like this forever.\
626'''Marge:''' Mm-hmm.\
627''[cut to several sperm with Homer's head racing to an egg, then to Homer demonstrating how they swim]''\
628'''Marge:''' Did you have to be so graphic?\
629'''Homer:''' It's OK, Marge: they pave the way for this kind of filth in school.
630** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS6E10GrampaVsSexualInadequacy Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy]]". After telling Abe about how weak their sex life is, Abe gives Homer some tonic to improve his sex life with Marge leading to shots of a train going into a tunnel, a rocket blasting off, and hot dogs falling in a factory which pans back to reveal Bart, Lisa and Maggie in a movie theater watching stock footage of all three.
631** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS15E18CatchEmIfYouCan Catch 'Em If You Can]]": Near the end of the episode in which Homer and Marge finally make love, which we don't see explicitly, in an inflated castle floating in the Niagra River.

647''[cut to the kids' horrified reactions as cheesy porno music plays; in the back of the room, Mrs. Krabappel nonchalantly smokes a cigarette]''\
648'''Mrs. Krabappel:''' She's faking it.
649* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'':
650** Lampshaded in "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS9E3WelcomeBackCarter Welcome Back, Carter]]", when Carter Pewterschmidt first meets his later wife, Barbara:

658** "[[Recap/FuturamaS6E10ThePrisonerOfBenda The Prisoner of Benda]]": Happens between Fry, who's in Zoidberg's body, and Leela, who's in Professor Farnworth's body, when both argue and do disgusting acts at each other when they're on a date [[{{Squick}} only to have them make out on the table]]. Later, we see them in bed naked in the same bodies, after making love.
659** "[[Recap/FuturamaS2E7PutYourHeadOnMyShoulder Put Your Head On My Shoulder]]": Double Subverted. After talking with each other while driving on Mercury and then using up all fuel on the car, Fry and Amy look at each other seductively.

Then, when Amy's car towed, both Fry and Amy immediately make out on the floor of the car and you know the rest...

666* Surprisingly enough for a show mostly intended for kids, ''WesternAnimation/Ben10UltimateAlien'' did one between [[UnholyMatrimony Darkstar and Charmcaster]], though it was [[{{Parental Bonus}} done in a way subtle enough to have only an older audience see it.]]
667* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': In the episode "The Ring", Tammy and Kenny go to T.G.I. Friday's after removing their purity rings so they can get a blowjob. The scene of Kenny dying from syphilis occurs offscreen, instead cutting to his funeral.
668* The ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether'' episode "Captain Hero's Marriage Pact" shows a disturbing but hilarious version. It can't really be described concisely. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_JZhldWQPA Just watch the clip.]] Subverted at the end: this scene is something that CH and Xandir are watching on TV.
669* Implied to have happened in the ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' episode "Breezy". Finn pecks Lumpy Space Princess on the lips, but LSP wants to swim in the "deep end," not the "kiddie pool."

671* The ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse2013'' short "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS1E17ThirdWheel Third Wheel]]" ends with the strong implication that Mickey and Minnie had sex [[spoiler:while inside Goofy's stomach.]]
672* Surprisingly ''WesternAnimation/MayaAndTheThree'' manages to get one past with its TV-Y7 rating-- in a scene where [[spoiler: King Teca]] and [[spoiler: a human-disguised Lady Micte]] [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything spar passionately with each other,]] he looks noticeably intrigued by the fact that she's putting up a good fight. When they are completely alone, she removes her disguise. They move towards each other...and the screen abruptly changes to black with text reading "9 Months Later," with [[spoiler: Lady Micte holding the infant Maya.]]
