I finally dug up some of the dialoue from the 2012 Spiderman reboot. If I understand the suggestion correctly. Peter Parker is supposed to be performing this trope in his question, with Dr. Connors warning him off. Is this a subtle example or not?

--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''' Shouldn't you be at school?
--> '''Peter Parker:''' No, I got a...I got a free track. I wanted...I wanted to ask you a question. How would a predator track a reptile?
--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''': Oh, they don't. Most reptiles are at the top of their respective food chain, kings of their domain.
--> '''Peter Parker:'''  But they gotta have vulnerabilities, right?
--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''' Why the sudden interest in the cold blooded?
--> '''Peter Parker:'''  Just asking a question. I got...I got...I got school stuff, biology profiles to do. So, because of the cold blood, would they react to sudden changes in temperature?
--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''' You'd have to catch one first.
...
--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''' Did you know there's a rumor of a new species in New York? Beautiful and quite large.
--> '''Peter Parker:'''  What do you know about it? Have you seen it?
--> '''Dr. Curt Connors:''' Well, it's not yet classified. But it can be aggressive, if threatened.
