* In ''Series/{{Castle|2009}}'', Kate Beckett absolutely loves to play jokes on Castle. Special mention goes to the episode "Lives of Others", in which it turns out that [[FriendlyScheming the WHOLE murder mystery was staged by Beckett]] [[ScarySurpriseParty as a pretext for a surprise birthday party for Castle]].
* River Song from the ''Series/DoctorWho'' series is this for the Doctor himself. She really enjoys teasing him and [[LovesSecrecy withholding information from him]] (as a time traveler, she has to conceal information about the future to avoid a time paradox, but she turns it into a way of amusement); "I know something that you don't" is basically her motto. She can also fly the TARDIS better than he can, and enjoys rubbing his nose in it (although some of what she says is just BlatantLies, such as the infamous line about him leaving the brakes on whenever he lands).

* In ''Literature/TheOdyssey'' [[ProperLady Penelope]], of all characters, may be the UrExample. She is revealed to be pretty sharp herself (Odysseus must have married her for a reason) as she keeps the suitors under her thumb with various tricks...and then she plays a mind game with her husband, the King of Tricksters, when he shows up in disguise, giving orders to drag Odysseus's bed from their chamber--causing Odysseus to demand who dared to cut the bed from the living olive tree he carved it from. It's something only the two of them knew, thus tricking him into proving his identity while she proves her fidelity to him in a single move.

* ''Theatre/TheMerchantOfVenice'': Portia, who arranges a complex prank on her fiancé Bassanio. First, she gives him a ring and makes him promise that he won't give it to anyone. Then, disguised as a male lawyer named Balthazar, she saves his friend Antonio in court and asks for "himself" this ring as a sign of gratitude. When he comes back to her after that, she teasingly pretends to be angry and accuses him of infidelity, then takes out that very ring and says that she slept with Balthazar to get it back... And finally, she admits that she was Balthazar herself.

* Arline Feynman, [[UsefulNotes/RichardFeynman the famed physicist]]'s first wife, was very much this. It is really indicative that some time after her [[LostLenore tragic death]], he met her in a dream, and she told him:
-->I fooled you. I was tired of you, so I cooked up this ruse so that I could go my own way. But now I like you again, so I've come back.
* "[[http://twitter.com/Flaminhaystack/status/953299644636950528 Before my mum passed away, she gave my dad strict instructions to water the plants in the bathroom. He's been religiously watering them & keeping them alive. They look so amazing he decided to take them to his new home, only to discover they are plastic! Can hear my mum chuckling]]"
