Can occur in a FreakyFridayFlip situation if one of the people involved tries to impersonate the other. Also often occurs in KillAndReplace scenarios.

[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* ''ThePrisoner'' episode ''The Schizoid Man''. An enemy agent is made to look exactly like Number 6 in an attempt to break Number 6's mind. The enemy agent is killed by Rover and Number 6 tries to impersonate him in order to escape. However, his attempt fails when he makes mistakes and Number Two (who was the agent's friend) realizes that he's the real number Six.
* ''StarTrekTheNextGeneration''. Wesley realizes that Lore is impersonating his friend Commander Data and tries to convince the other bridge crew but they arbitrarily dismiss his concerns.

[[AC:TabletopRPG]]
* ''{{Champions}}'' supplement ''Red Doom'', scenario "The Mole". When Disinformer kidnaps one of the {{PC}}s' friends and replaces him, he makes mistakes that the {{PC}}s can pick up on to realize that he's a fake. He will try to explain away his mistakes by saying that he "forgot" or he's "not feeling well".
