* Though a departure from her portrayal in the comics, Lorna Dane a.k.a. Polaris is made into something of a Mad Scientist's beautiful daughter in ''WesternAnimation/WolverineAndTheXMen''. She, unlike her siblings, is intentionally kept innocent and naive of the reality of the society her father (Magneto) created on Genosha. And in one episode she falls for ComicBook/{{Gambit}} who, ''[[AntiHero while his status as a hero may be suspect]]'', is the enemy of her father (in that ''[[GentlemanThief he plans to steal from him]]''.)

* Laura "ComicBook/{{X 23}}" Kinney is this. Her creator, Dr. Sarah Kinney, was described as the foremost expert on mutant genetics and was hired by the Facility after her proposal to clone Franchise/{{Wolverine}}. Despite the ethics of the project, Sarah's interest was purely ForScience, directly likening the idea of cloning a ''mutant'', when mainstream science had only ''just'' cracked cloning sheep and cats, to godhood. All this knowing full well that the child would be raised to be a LivingWeapon heading in. Laura herself is frequently described as Sarah's spitting-image (explained by some writers as Sarah using her own DNA to stabilize the sample taken from Wolverine), and it's made quite clear Laura is intended to be a quite beautiful young woman.

** Her name is Conquest (Connie for short), and the phrase AnythingThatMoves hardly does her justice. She is known for giving out sex "free with purchase", any purchase, at her father Galasso's toy store. Nevertheless, he seems to be under the impression that she is a virgin, even though he has continually forced her to copulate with anyone he considers capable of producing a (male) heir for him. There's even mention of a time he witnessed a heroic horse, and tried to [[{{Squick}} use her to breed centaurs]]. Despite having a head full of air and a libido that's UpToEleven, she is surprisingly canny and eventually rebelled against her tyrannical father, and is now apparently one of his main business rivals. She's still a tramp, though, and considers a tryst with one of Galasso's more attractive male employees a suitable substitute for a briefcase full of cash as a bribe.

* ''Series/TheComicStripPresents''. Lampshaded in ''Detectives on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown'' when the GenreSavvy Series/JasonKing-expy asks the obligatory mad ex-colonel in a BigFancyHouse if he has the obligatory nineteen-year old daughter in a miniskirt and too much makeup. [[ThePornomancer He's disappointed]] to discover that she's living in Kenya with an African prince.
* Lampshaded in ''Series/DangerUXB'' when Lieutenant Ash delivers a defused bomb to Dr Gillespie and his daughter Susan, who are building a HeathRobinsonMachine in their backyard for steaming explosives out of unexploded German bombs. Ash later reports to his superiors on the phone, deriding the device as completely impractical and describing Gillespie as the proverbial MadScientist who even has the requisite beautiful daughter — said daughter has of course [[RightBehindMe just entered the room behind him]].



* ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'':
** Such as Rayna, Flint's "ward" from "Requiem for Methuselah". He was neither evil nor mad, he just didn't want his privacy to be disturbed (and for good reason).
** Inverted in "Conscience of the King", where it is the daughter who is the mad one, trying to protect her accused father (he wasn't squeaky clean either though).
* And then there's Tora Ziyal from ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'', the innocent daughter of Gul Dukat who always tried to give her father the benefit of the doubt. It didn't end well for her: [[spoiler: she dies a pretty pointless death at the hands of Dukat's [[TheDragon Dragon]] when even she was forced to accept that her father had run out of excuses for the way he behaved and the decisions he took. Always mentally unstable at best, her death was what snapped the last remaining thread of sanity Dukat had ever possessed]].

* This one is debatable, as, at worst, Max Born - by his own admission - was more "amiably weird" than "Mad". But he could be very forgetful, and absolutely ''hated'' to work without a collaborator. He was also a fairly good looking, if a touch square jawed chap. But if I said that his ''granddaughter'' was Music/OliviaNewton-John, then you know why he's here. His two daughters, Irene (Olivia's mother) and Gritli were also said to be beautiful and talented.

Often overlaps with TheUglyGuysHotDaughter. May overlap with DaddysLittleVillain. Might also end up being a PerkyFemaleMinion or DarkActionGirl, if she frequently helps her father in his work. Sister trope to ScienceHerosBabeAssistant, where the she's a love interest to the scientist rather than his daughter.

* Talia, the daughter of ComicBook/RasAlGhul in the ''Franchise/{{Batman}}'' comics. Her loyalty to her father is... complicated. In the comics, it is usually unwavering.

In the video game, ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity'', it's played darkly [[spoiler:[[InTheBack when he makes a move of threatening Batman with her life]] if he does not kill him]]. This results her in leaving him [[spoiler:after Batman saves her]].

* This one is debatable, as, at worst, Max Born - by his own admission - was more "amiably weird" than "Mad". But he could be very forgetful, and absolutely ''hated'' to work without a collaborator. He was also a fairly good looking, if a touch square jawed chap. But if I said that his ''granddaughter'' was Music/OliviaNewton-John, then you know why he's here. His two daughters, Irene (Olivia's mother) and Gritli were also said to be beautiful and talented.
