At least we could pair it with a panel of someone talking about what this character is bribing her way out of.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

Yeah I'd say this is a case of the caption doing all the work

[up] Agreed.

Motion to pull

Doesn't adequately demonstrate the trope.

Yeah, I can only see the "money" part... And not event that clearly. Seconded.

Thirded.

The picture would work were the caption actually in the picture, in a dialogue balloon.

Being in a Japanese-produced work is not enough of a difference to warrant its own trope.

Pulled.

Allow me to present my counter-argument...

Suggestion

Something to do with carjacking, I can't think of a good caption

[up]I think it works pretty well without a caption, although one wouldn't hurt.

[up][up] Nice example, but the art style looks really messy even if it's not...

Yeah the scans are crap quality...I tried my best to clean it up in Photoshop

That says more "I can buy stuff on a whim" more than "I can get away with anything".

[up]I think that it's fairly obvious that he's carjacking the guy, but yeah, the art quality is pretty bad.

Well carjacking but compensating the guy isn't quite this trope. It would be more bribing an officer seeing the carjack.

Note the existence of Every Man Has His Price.

Rhymes with "Protracted."

[up]Hmm, good idea. I'll make a thread to get some more input.
