** Alice asks Bob not to look at her while she sings so he won't notice it's [[PlayingCyrano actually Carol singing]].

** Alice holds a concert where she has the entire audience turned away from her so she can perform.

** Alice is a confident singer and [[SerenadeYourLover serenades to Bob]] with no issue.
%%* '''Enforced''': ?????
* '''Lampshaded''':
** Bob asks Alice not to peek while he's changing and jokes it's usually the girl asking that of the guy.
** Alice makes note that her inability to sing while being watched is irrational.
* '''Invoked''': Bob is TheTease and asks the shy Alice not to peek at him while he changes just to make her blush.

** Bob thinks about warning Alice not to peek while he changes, but he decides to trust her not to do it on her own instead.
** Alice asks Bob not to look while she sings but then gathers courage and tells him otherwise.
* '''Discussed''':
** "Bob asked me not to peek while he changed, does he really think I'm a pervert?"
** "Could you look the other way while I sing? It makes me feel less nervous, somehow."
* '''Conversed''': "Is there a point in asking someone not to look? I think that may only make them more curious and want to look even more".
%%* '''Implied:''': ?????
%%* '''Deconstructed''': ?????
%%* '''Reconstructed''': ?????
* '''Played For Laughs''':
** Bob is a confident TheCasanova, so his sudden request for Alice not to peek on him as he's changing clothes is seen as humorous due to it being unexpected.
** Alice request for Bob not to stare at her while she sings is played for laughs due to the absurdity, with Bob being weirded out by the request.
* '''Played For Drama''': Bob is a victim of sexual abuse so Alice takes his request very seriously.
