Someone is either doing something obviously dangerous, suggesting a cunning plan that can't possibly go wrong, or has just found out what it is he's eating. Cut directly to an ambulance flying down the street, sirens blaring. A variation of this for the "cunning plan that can't possibly go wrong" would be a Gilligan Cut to a character trying to explain his actions to the cops as he's stuffed into a police car and read his Miranda Rights. Another variation is the fire department coming to put out a fire the character caused (whether the character is injured by it is entirely up to the writer). Much like a Description Cut or Gilligan Cut, the actual injuries are generally left to the viewers' imaginations, but occasionally you will actually see the character falling victim to Amusing Injuries first. If the character is The Klutz, sometimes the action being undertaken is apparently utterly harmless, and the humour comes from wondering how anyone could screw it up so badly that they require emergency medical attention. Can also be Played for Drama, but usually without the Smash Cut associated with the comic usage. Related to Gory Discretion Shot. Compare Hospital Gurney Scene and Funeral Cut. |

Adventure Time: In the final episode, "Come Along With Me", there's a flashback of Simon and Betty making sundaes, and Betty tosses a jar of maraschino cherries at Simon. He's not paying attention and it predictably clonks him hard on the noggin. Cut to Simon being rushed to the hospital with a bandaged face. | |

In the So Bad, It's Good educational film Watch Out for Poisons!, a puppet boy named Eggbert keeps drinking things he shouldn't, causing his mother to exclaim, "Oh! Eggbert!" and then we cut to a puppet ambulance taking him to the hospital. And THEN, we get to see him get his stomach pumped! This happens three times in the film, making it unique in film history as the one that contains more puppet stomach-pumping action than any other film. Watch it here. | |

Lamput: In "Gym", Lamput makes the docs trip by setting up the treadmills they're on to go faster than they can run. The docs are sent flying to the other side of the room, and the scene cuts to an ambulance that is just arriving at the gym. The docs are brought into the gym in wheelchairs and with an impressive display of muscles from all that running. | |

The Simpsons: From the episode "Homer and Apu" (in season five), Homer buys a pack of ham that expired in 1989 (it was 1994 at the time this episode aired). The first time he eats it, Homer gets a horrible stomachache (but keeps eating!), then it cuts to the ambulance. After Homer spends some time at the hospital, he returns to the store and complains to Apu that the ham made him sick. Apu then bribes Homer with ten pounds worth of bad shrimp, which is then followed by a jump cut back to the same footage of the ambulance. (The ambulance itself is Stock Footage for the show. It was used when Mr. Burns went to the hospital in the season two episode "Blood Feud", and in "Homer's Triple Bypass" after Homer passes out from a heart attack after Mr. Burns yells at him for being a lazy, incompetent worker.) "Lady Bouvier's Lover" has an amusing variant near the end of the first act. After feeling amorous from being with Jacqueline Bouvier, he realizes "I'm in love! No, wait, it's a stroke." Then it cuts to an ambulance driving with Grampa inside it, realizing "No, wait! It IS love!" To which the paramedics toss him out of the ambulance on his gurney, sending him rolling onto a highway ramp as he gleefully and obliviously cries out "I'M IN LOVE!" Also, in the season eight episode "Lisa's Date with Density", Lisa asks Milhouse if he can deliver a note to Nelson Muntz. The note reads "Guess who likes you?", Nelson looks back and sees Milhouse wiggling his eyebrows. Jump cut to Milhouse being wheeled out of the school on a gurney with everyone in the school watching. Done with a fire engine in "22 Short Films About Springfield", during the "Steamed Hams" scene as a result of Skinner's ruined roast eventually burning down his house. |

The Corner Gas Christmas episode "Merry Gasmas" uses this trope four different times. The first three are flashbacks to previous Christmases. Emma tells Oscar to be careful with the sharp carving knives, cut to an ambulance. Emma says her eggnog tastes off and Oscar tells her to drink it anyway, cut to an ambulance. Emma again tells Oscar to be careful with the knives, reminding him of what happened before, so Oscar gives them to a very young Brent instead, cut to an ambulance. At the end of the episode, Brent climbs onto a shaky ladder to take down some mistletoe, time for another ambulance cut. Emma watches the ambulance pull away and mutters, "Same damn thing every year..." | |

When people in the neighbourhood find out, they start sending them canned goods. While they reluctantly accept them, Lois goes into a rant about how people only ever donate the crap they don't want. Hal says the olives he's eating are perfectly fine, and Lois points out the can he's eating from is supposed to be peaches. Cue the speeding ambulance. In another episode, Dewey begins dancing with his elderly babysitter, who really gets into the dancing. Cut to an ambulance driving away outside the house, with Dewey waving goodbye. |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In "Born Again Krabs" (pictured above), Mr. Krabs is about to take a bite of a Krabby Patty that, if it were any more disgusting, would require EPA financial assistance. Immediately cut to an ambulance with the siren blaring. Cut back to Mr. Krabs, remarking "Oh, look, an ambulance." Then, he eats the burger and is rushed to the hospital. In "Just One Bite", Squidward tries a Krabby Patty for the first time and becomes addicted. At the end, he breaks into the Patty Vault and eats all of the burgers. After SpongeBob remarks that they'll go right to his thighs... and then blow up, we see an explosion, and then a cut to the ambulance, with Squidward blown to pieces, all of his tentacles in a bucket. In "No Weenies Allowed", immediately after SpongeBob is finally admitted into the Salty Spittoon, there is a cut to the ambulance and it is revealed he slipped on an ice cube and got covered in boo-boos. |

Knowledge of the trope leads to potential audience confusion in the Doctor Who episode "The Eleventh Hour": The Doctor gets clobbered with a cricket bat, and then we cut to an ambulance pulling up at a hospital. The Doctor is not in the ambulance, and does not appear in the following scene within the hospital (nor in fact does the ambulance, which apparently is just there to make it clear that it's a hospital). | |

Near the beginning of Up, young Carl ventures out across a beam in the attic of a decrepit old house to retrieve a balloon. The beam snaps, and we cut to an ambulance. The scene after that shows Carl at home with his arm in a cast. | |

Hancock's Half Hour: In the classic episode "The Blood Donor", our hero has just given "very nearly an armful" of blood and discovered that he belongs to a rare blood group. Back home, fretting that his rare blood might not go to "the right sort of person", he decides to sharpen a bread knife. Cue Stock Footage of ambulance, and guess who needs the blood. | |

In The Cannonball Run, J.J. drives a motorboat and gets distracted waving to some women. Victor tries to warn him about a third boat ahead of them and the trope plays. This actually affects the plot as the ambulance ride gives them the idea to use one in the race. | |
