Basic Trope: A character runs around in a public place without any clothes.
- Straight: Alice streaks across a football field.
- Exaggerated: Alice runs a whole marathon naked.
- Downplayed: Alice "streaks" in her underwear, or revealing clothes.
- Justified: This is a real phenomenon.
- Inverted: Alice flamboyantly runs through a nudist colony while fully clothed.
- Subverted: Alice declares her intention to "streak," but then she just gets all the glass dirty.
- Double Subverted: And then once everyone is done laughing at that, she strips naked.
- Parodied: Alice was locked out of her home naked and through her efforts to hide, got herself exposed on the biggest game of the year.
- Averted:
- Nobody runs around naked.
- Public nudity is the norm, so it's no big deal to see someone running around naked.
- Defied: The security at the football field is very tight, and would-be streakers couldn't get far.
- Zig-Zagged: Alice somehow puts clothes on and loses them at various points during her run.
- Enforced:
- "What's a good way to put some comedy into the scene at the football field?" "Well, Naked People Are Funny, right?"
- It's set during a real game notable for somebody running naked on the field.
- Lampshaded: "Wow, I never thought I'd see anybody streak in real life."

- Played for Laughs: Naked People Are Funny.
- Played for Drama: Alice does this because of her desperate need for attention, leading her to do risky and dangerous stunts just so people will look at her.
