Is there a trope for when a character lights up but is then told not to smoke?
Tiffany: I'm sorry. I don't smoke. It's not that I worry about lung cancer, but it does stain your teeth.
Mary: Well, I worry terribly about lung cancer. I also worry about shortness of breath and heart disease. But what really worries me right this minute is that I'm not going to find a cigarette.
