[[AC: Live Action TV]]
* ''Series/HoratioHornblower''
** "Mutiny": A sailor from Hornblower's division falls down from a mast and gets smashed on the deck. His blood splatters on Midshipman Wellard, who promptly [[VomitIndiscretionShot throws up]].
** Horatio is known to suffer from seasickness when he comes aboard any ship before a cruise after being ashore. In "Duty", he's [[VomitDiscretionShot heard vomiting]] in his cabin; however, it happened just before his wedding and he was having cold feet, so his stomach might have been unsettled by being nervous.
* ''Series/SexAndTheCity'': Carrie throws up in the sink when she discovers Aiden's engagement ring. She finds it ugly and she's not very certain about their relationship. A reaction this strong surprises her though.
* ''Series/{{Dexter}}'': 
** Dexter's foster-father Harry vomits after he finds Dexter dissecting his kill at their home. He trained him to be a vigilante killer with twisted noble ideas of justice but the ugly reality was too much to take.
** Debra throws up rather violently after she comes to a full realization that her brother is a serial killer.

----
I think the ''Dexter'' examples are listed as examples of VomitingCop as well. Even though both Harry and Debra are cops, the Stress Vomit did not happen at the crime scenes they were called to and as such it fits here better. However, I'm also for merging these two concepts together and make it one trope. Too bad trope repair shop is currently full.

EDIT: Now when I think of it, a lot of this might be covered by VomitDiscretionShot and VomitIndiscretionShot. I'm heading to read the tropes properly.
