* In ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'', when Bojack is asked about his opinion of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict during a book signing for his biography, he's able to placate the audience with shocking grace. He proceeds to give a thumbs up to his agent Princess Carolyn, who shrugs her shoulders in confusion and acceptance.
-->'''Bojack''': Erm... It's a shame that Arafat walked away from the table in 2000. Obviously there's no panacea but a two-state solution with an emphasis on human rights... Feels like a place to begin.

* ''Manga/MariaNoDanzai'': When Kinugawa questions Maria on her last conversation with Shikimi before she started SkippingSchool, Maria realizes that she's in a bit of a pickle: she can't admit that she called Shikimi pitiful since [[HairTriggerTemper Kinugawa]] might hold Maria responsible for Shikimi disappearing, she can't lie about what she said on the off chance that Shikimi shared it with Kinugawa before she died, and [[RevealingCoverUp she can't refuse to answer without seeming suspicious]]. So what does she do? She [[CrocodileTears tears up]], [[PartingWordsRegret expresses regret for being too harsh and not choosing better phrasing for her "warning" to Shikimi]], and [[SarcasticConfession blames herself for her disappearance]]. Kinugawa buys her act and drops the subject without realizing Maria didn't really answer his question, leaving Maria to realize Kinugawa hadn't figured her out after all.

Rather than give any kind of meaningful answer, Breen goes on a long-winded speech about unspoken questions and how instinct is the greatest enemy of humanity, never once addressing the ''why''.

J deduces, correctly, that none of the others knows why they're there either, and are following a "do what you're told" mentality. Given the results of the test, it's entirely possible that the recruitment process was just a going-through-the-motions act put on for the benefit of J and/or Zed.

* In ''Theatre/{{Hamilton}}'', Angelica's telling of the night she first met Alexander in "Satisfied" has her ask him about where his family is from, to which he brushes off as unimportant and immediately moves the conversation to his future ambitions. As the meeting takes place at a ball where Continental Army soldiers on leave and other upper-class young adults were mingling, Angelica quickly deduces that Alexander's sidestepping means that he doesn't want to draw attention to his current social status, i.e., he's broke and trying to marry upwards.
