A trope in which Carol has sex with Bob by pretending to be Alice. In short, "My God, Who Have I Done?"
In the classic version which gave this trope its name, Carol accomplishes her coup by slipping into bed with Bob after dark; Bob is typically too sleepy to notice the difference. This can be justified in cases where Bob and Alice have never slept together before, but if Bob and Alice are married it strains the audience's Willing Suspension of Disbelief (he can't tell the difference between Carol and his wife of five years?). Historically, it was commonly used the other way round: Carol, as the wife that Bob rejected, took the place of Alice, who was desperate to escape Bob's wooing. Nowadays it's often achieved via the tropes that the fantasy or science fiction genre makes possible, e.g. shapeshifting, body swap, or some other device by which Carol could plausibly fool Bob into believing that she is Alice.
This is one of The Oldest Tricks in the Book and a common origin story for mythological heroes (often with a god playing the role of Carol). As a general rule, the farther back you go in time, the more likely it is that the person you're sleeping with isn't who you think they are, though it's seen something of a revival in Soap Operas (usually with the added justification that the person being fooled is drunk).
For once, the Law of Inverse Fertility is inverted: a woman who uses this to try to get pregnant is likely to pull it off, even after one time in bed.
When Played for Laughs, expect Carol-as-Alice to be much better in bed than the real Alice. If it's Dan impersonating Bob, expect Alice to notice "Bob" has grown a few inches, especially if it's a parody. For cases when Bob suspects something, see Not Right in the Bed. (A rather twisted case of Spot the Imposter in both cases.) Basically, a sub-category for Black Comedy Rape.
Compare with Bride and Switch and Double Standard: Rape, Sci-Fi. If Bob knows who he's with, but it becomes apparent he's imagining it's someone else, you're looking at Wrong-Name Outburst. Not to be confused with a Trick Bed.
This is basically the definition of rape by deception (or rape by fraud), though that crime can also include situations like doctors performing unnecessarily invasive sexual acts on patients while claiming that they're necessary for diagnosis or treatment. Most areas do not recognize this as a crime, but in the U.S. under expanding federal definitions of rape to include any non-consensual penetration, it may qualify and be prosecuted in the same vein as all other forms of rape. In other words, Do Not Try This at Home. Seriously. We mean it.

In the Thursday Next book First Among Sequels, Thursday's villainous counterpart from the Bookworld impersonates Thursday and sleeps with her husband, Landen. The original Thursday can't reveal the switch without admitting that she had broken a promise by returning to Bookworld. Instead, Thursday discreetly asks Landen what he thought of the sex last night—and he answers along the lines of, "Honestly? You're usually a lot better."

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit:
The aptly named "Imposter" episode dealt with this. A man claims to be the Director of Admissions at Hudson University, and uses to sleep with desperate mothers who want their children to get into Hudson in a quid pro quo exchange. Benson calls it rape, others aren't so sure. ADA Barba notes it counts as rape by fraud, but then remarks that isn't illegal in New York.
A particularly horrific example occurs in one episode involving a Twin Switch. A woman finds the body of her twin sister and knows that the hit was meant for her, so she decides to make them think they succeeded by posing as her dead sister, fooling everyone, including the murdered twin's husband and daughter. The husband is understandably horrified when the truth comes out.

In the Nibelungenlied, Siegfried pretends to be King Gunther to get into bed with Brunhild, his wife. However the twist is that Siegfried did this on Gunther's orders since Brunhild is very protective of her virginity as her superhuman strength comes from it. Gunther needed Siegfried to get into her bed and beat her half to death before he consummated his marriage with her.

When Doctor Octopus did a Grand Theft Me on Peter in Superior Spider-Man (2013), he tried to get fresh with Mary Jane as well. She felt something was off because Peter wasn't himself (plus they were no longer together) and Doc Oc gave up his attempts. He tried again later with another woman, Anna Maria, who had no clue about anything. When Peter got back his body and let her in on everything, she was quite stunned by what had gone on. When Otto comes back from death later on (kinda, it's actually a mental duplicate) and tries to be a hero again, he even starts mentally kicking himself for denying her the full knowledge needed to make a conscientious choice.

This is done in The Once and Future King sans magic. Twice. While the first time has the excuse that Lancelot was incredibly drunk and thus mistook Elaine for Guinevere, the second time (during which he was perfectly sober and knew the queen wouldn't call him to her chambers as long as Elaine was in the castle) really didn't have much besides it being dark. Guinevere sure doesn't buy it.

Adalind pulls this on Nick in Grimm with a spell that makes her appear like Juliette. Neither Nick nor Juliette are amused once the truth is revealed, especially when it's discovered that she did this to remove Nick's Grimm abilities. Unfortunately for everyone involved, the cure for this literally drives Juliette insane. And Adalind somehow got pregnant. Again. With her literal archnemesis, whom she has screwed over for four years. Strangely enough, Adalind and Nick eventually get together for good, while Juliette (now calling herself Eve) becomes a cold, calculating killing machine working for a secret government agency.

In Runaways, Karolina is dating the Sex Shifter Xavin, but is also interested in Nico, who she has had a crush on for most of the series. At one point, Xavin tried appearing as Nico because they thought that this was what Karolina really wanted and that it would help Karolina deal with her emotions. It did not work; Karolina thought it was "some kind of sick test". Xavin, not being from around here, is somewhat baffled.

The Miraculous Ladybug fic Pouvez-vous me laisser entrer? plays with this, by having Ladybug visiting Adrien in his room after finding out that he's a fan of hers and initiating a sexual relationship with him while concealing that her secret identity, Marinette, has been a classmate of his for years. Note though that Adrien is also concealing his other identity as Ladybug's partner Chat Noir. Marinette is shown to be eaten up by guilt at her deception, but she persists with the relationship until one night when Adrien's blindfold comes undone at the worst possible moment, causing her to flee the house, fearing that she's ruined everything. However, Adrien is not the least bit disappointed with who she is under the mask, and is somewhat shocked when she confesses to Chat Noir that she "used Ladybug to trick a guy into sleeping with [her]" — he doesn't feel tricked at all and if anything loves Ladybug more than ever knowing that she's Marinette.

It's a coincidence that he catches her in a vulnerable moment but he doesn't reveal the deception until forced to by fake Ethan days later.

In the Justice League Unlimited episode "The Great Brain Robbery", Lex Luthor switches bodies with the Flash. The Flash, while posing as Luthor, is implied to have had sex with Luthor's girlfriend Tala. Tala is the one who initiates it, and she clearly enjoys it, even remarking that Lex is being a far more sensitive and attentive lover than usual, but she is having sex with a stranger and enemy who has fooled her into thinking that he's really her boyfriend. Flash most likely went along with it because otherwise he might have been discovered. At the end of the episode, Lex returns to his own body, and Tala is visibly disappointed to have him back.

Happens twice in One Hundred Years of Solitude.
Arcadio Buendía is fascinated by Pilar Ternera but he's the only Buendía son that she refuses to sleep with, since she's his mother but Arcadio doesn't know that. Pilar tells him to wait for her in his room one night, but the one who actually goes is a local girl named Santa Sofia de la Piedad, whom Pilar paid so she would take her place. Arcadio realizes the deal when she slips into his hammock, but goes along with it anyway; from then on, they stay together and, when Arcadio is executed, Santa Sofia and her children by Arcadio (a daughter and the twin boys she's pregnant with) are taken in by the Buendia family.
Twenty-something years later, Hooker with a Heart of Gold Petra Cotes sleeps with Santa Sofia's twins, Aureliano Segundo and Jose Arcadio Segundo, mistakenly thinking they're the same guy; the deal's revealed when the three contract STD's; once they get better, Aureliano Segundo takes Petra as his mistress and they stay together until his and his brother's deaths.

In Neighbours, con-artist Andrea Somers slept with Toadie while she was impersonating his presumed-dead wife Dee (later revealed to be her long-lost twin sister). He realised the truth shortly afterward when he found her actual passport and was horrified, albeit less by the fact that she had raped him and more by the fact that he was losing Dee all over again.

All My Children has an example where the (drunk) man genuinely does not realize that the woman (doped up on pain medication) doesn't know she's with someone other than her husband and feels genuinely horrible at the realization of what's happened.

In the original cut of RE-TAKE, "Ghost-Asuka", actually a specter of the original Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion, conjures an illusion where the alternate Asuka Shinji fell in love with survived in battle. As soon as the sex is finished, Ghost-Asuka drops the illusion.

Lewis pulls this on Betty in Revenge of the Nerds. He's wearing a Darth Vader mask, and she just assumes her boyfriend is feeling kinky, and Lewis set up the situation specifically for this to happen and doesn't bother to correct her assumption.

In The Spectacular Spider-Man #245, the Chameleon once attempted to do this to Mary Jane Watson (as in the above case he was disguised as Peter), only to be defied. When he kisses her, she realizes it isn't him (with an extra spewing of information Peter should have known to be false to make sure), and then proceeded to beat him senseless with a baseball bat.

Camelot:
How Arthur was conceived. As usual, Uther had disguised himself and he slept with Igraine doing so.
Then there is the episode "Igraine" has Morgan impersonate Igraine, having sex with Merlin in that form.
Last we have Morgan impersonating Guinevere to have sex with the king.

Though the original Arthurian myths usually show the incest between Arthur and one of his sisters as being a case of unknowing incest, modern re-tellings often rework it as this trope. An example would be The Mists of Avalon where Viviane sets up a tryst between Arthur and Morgan, knowing full well who they are in relation to each other, and when called on it, she doesn't see what they're so upset about.

Married... with Children Seeking revenge on a girl who's been stringing him along, Bud convinces the guy she's really interested in (and who could care less about her) to go along with his plan—entice the girl into meeting him under the bleachers for a round of quickie sex. Later, the girl is seen emerging from the bleachers, adjusting her clothes, apparently completely unaware—thanks to the darkness—that she just had sex with Bud, who the audience soon sees coming out a few minutes after she did.

Judge Dee:
Sergeant Hoong takes the judge to a play where a woman swears the child she conceived and bore during her husband's one-year absence is her husband's. The husband denies having returned, but it turns out the husband's brother disguised himself to sleep with her, even cutting off a finger like his brother.
"The Chinese Bell Murders": A Buddhist monastery is well-known for providing children to women who spend the night alone in the temple pavilion. What actually happens is that the monks enter via a secret passage and rape the women, telling them to keep their mouths shut and convince their husbands to make a generous donation if they don't want the truth coming out. As the socially-approved fate of a raped woman in Tang China is committing suicide, the judge (falsely, but speaks the truth in his official report) claims that not all the pavilions were equipped with secret passages, and therefore a woman conceiving as a result is not necessarily proof of her being Defiled Forever.

In The Sirens Sang Of Murder by Sarah Caudwell, one of the protagonists has an intimate rendezvous that gets interrupted by a power outage before it goes anywhere. It later transpires that, unbeknownst to him, the remainder of the rendezvous was with the other woman spending the night in that particular inn, and that her husband — who committed all the other murders in the book out of jealousy — wants to murder him as well. In a bit of a variation, Cantrip greatly admires the second woman and would have been very pleased had he known of the swap.

In The Three Musketeers, D'Artagnan spends a night with Milady de Winter pretending to be Count de Wardes, both for the reason of getting information out of her and for the obvious reason. After that, he insults her (still acting as de Wardes!) and gets to sleep with her again, as himself this time, since she wants revenge on de Wardes. She winds up asking D'Artagnan to challenge de Wardes to duel. It gets worse. You'd think a woman as experienced as Milady would realize she's bedding the same man, even with the lights off at her insistence, but apparently not....

Spy X Family: In the NSFW doujin "What's Yor's", after Loid puts Anya to bed, he sees his bedroom light on, and when he goes to investigate, he finds Yor naked and asking to have sex. Aftert they finish, she says "I love you", and immediately covers her mouth in regret. Loid responds that of all the women he could've chosen to be his wife, he's happy he chose her and says "I love you" back. After Loid dozes off, she then gets out bed and heads to the bathroom, where Fiona takes off the contact lenses, make-up, and wig that gave her the appearance of Yor, and sadly walks out of the Forgers' apartment. As she walks into the street in the middle of the night, Fiona spots Yor running home with a trench-coat covering her Thorn Princess dress. Realizing that her intent to embrace her beloved, only resulted in her pushing him further into the arms of her romantic rival, when Fiona sees Yor walking towards her, the former lets out a bitter "you're welcome." As Yor stands in front of the apartment building beguiled, Fiona sadly walks away in defeat.

This trope occurs twice in The X-Files
In "Small Potatoes", a shape-shifting man impregnates several women while impersonating their husbands, impregnates his ex-girlfriend by impersonating Luke Skywalker (no, not Mark Hamil, the character from the movie), and later transforms himself into Mulder first to avoid being arrested, and then uses his appearance to try to seduce Scully. She doesn't notice (to be fair, there was wine involved) and almost kisses the non-Mulder before the real Mulder bursts in. Scully, obviously, is not amused. Notably, this is treated as rape (unlike many examples here) with the man registered as a sex offender and behind bars at the end of the episode.
In "Dreamland", Mulder switches bodies with an MIB, who decides to try and seduce Scully. This time, though, she does notice that it's not Mulder because the MIB acts nothing like Mulder — including slapping her butt, calling her "Dana", and deferring to Skinner. In "Dreamland II", she tricks him into handcuffing himself to Mulder's bed and warns him that if he calls her "baby" again, he'll be "peeing through a catheter".

Technically every single woman Sam in Quantum Leap has sex with or even kisses is a victim of sexual assault by this definition, as they're not watching Sam but a man Sam has leapt into, which would make Sam probably the most notorious serial rapist in TV history. Of course you can argue that sometimes Sam leaps right in the middle of the sexual act and/or is himself disoriented after leaping, but in some cases he is clearly and actively pursuing the sex. Also you can argue that he needs to sleep with some of the women to keep his cover but, again, that's still questionable for modern standards and a lot of people would still consider it rape by deception.

In Roswell, Voluntary Shapeshifting alien Nasedo is impersonating a man he'd killed, and he reveals he's been doing this to a woman the dead man was involved with. Nasedo is an acknowledged villain both in-show and out, but neither the aliens nor humans he reveals this to have any reaction one way or another. Even if they have no sympathy for the woman due to her own antagonistic status, disgust for him doing it and an acknowledgement it's wrong would have been nice.

Scoundrels (2010): A unintentional example is when Logan is doing a Twin Switch for Cal and accidentally gets Patty interested on him, because she's more attracted to Logan's wit, and she ends up having a Two-Person Pool Party with Logan while thinking he's Cal. She's pissed about it when she finds out, but eventually forgives him and they start dating. Cal also is upset when he finds out, but it's mostly because he's jealous, especially when he finds out she's amazing in bed.

Smallville:
Lana's nutty shapeshifting Stalker with a Crush Tina Greer took Lana's shape to makeout with Clark, then a season later took Clark's shape and declared his love to Lana and they kissed before the real Clark interrupted them.
Five seasons later in "Persona", Lana sleeps with Bizarro thinking he's Clark. This turns out to actually be traumatizing for both her and Clark.

In one of S.L. Viehl's Star Doc novels, Duncan ends up having sex with Cherijo (whom he previously raped under the influence of a sentient microorganism) while disguised as a Fish Person. It's left ambiguous as to whether or not Cherijo knew (or, at least, suspected) the truth. It helps that they did it doggy-style, so she wasn't really able to see too many details up-close to figure out that he's wearing a disguise. And no, she doesn't mind when she finds out, just like she quickly forgave him for the rape in the first book. They end up getting married. It doesn't look like there are any non-screwed-up people in that 'verse.

Part of the plot of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas involves robbing a casino. The game's protagonist, CJ, pulls a kinkier-than-normal version of this as part of the heist. They need a keycard from one of the casino staff in order to pull it off, so he decides to get one by seducing a female croupier who works there, Millie. Of course, she doesn't know him yet, so his plan to remedy this is to shadow her after she leaves work and look for an opportunity. Said opportunity comes when she visits a sex shop and buys some fetish wear. By eavesdropping on her making a phone call, CJ learns that she's buying the clothes for a BDSM play session with a guy. CJ buys a gimp suit that covers his entire body and face, and then trails Millie home, where he waits for the guy to show up. When the guy arrives, CJ ambushes him and enters the house in his place, wearing the gimp suit. Millie thinks that CJ is her boyfriend and is eager to be punished by him. (This is peculiar, since gimp suits are normally worn by submissives rather than dominants, but never mind.) He obliges. Afterwards, she finds out that the guy she did all that stuff with was CJ and not her usual partner. Astonishingly, she has no problem with any of what CJ did, and becomes his regular girlfriend. She's also willing to lend him her keycard after going out for a little while, in exchange for a share of the stolen money.

Borderline example in the final season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Winn Adami takes her new spiritual guide to her bed. Later, she discovers he is actually Dukat, the architect of the Bajoran occupation and genocide, in disguise. Borderline since Dukat wasn't impersonating a previously existing character, but had created a completely new false identity. There's no way she would sleep with him (or any Cardassian) normally though.
Earlier, a Mirror Universe episode had Benjamin Sisko taking over for his counterpart in the Terran resistance who was missing and presumed dead. Jadzia Dax's mirror counterpart being his mistress, she insists on taking Sisko to bed with her on his return. The next time he pays a visit to her universe, she takes him to task for this, saying "You made love to me under false pretenses!"

In X2: X-Men United, Mystique shapeshifts into Jean Grey in an attempt to sleep with Logan. One could probably say it was subverted since Logan found out pretty much in the first minute when he felt a scar he previously had left on Mystique. The novelization claims he identified her by scent before she even entered his tent, but he played along until he got bored/annoyed/angry, it's not especially clear which.

Dante pulls an unintentional one on then-girlfriend Caitlin Bree in the backstory to Clerks. He passes out in a darkened bedroom at a party and wakes up to find Caitlin in bed with him. The two have sex, and he only later learns that she had arranged to meet another man there and believed herself to be sleeping with him. He counts this as the "half" of her eight and a half acts of infidelity. The incident is later inverted when she enters a darkened bathroom and has sex with what she believes is an uncharacteristically silent, stoic Dante, but is in fact the corpse of a man who had suffered a fatal heart attack hours earlier.

By using magic to take on Shinra's form, taking Kaya to bed, and then unveiling his true form after they sleep together, Kaya considers herself too defiled to be with Shinra and will fully submit to Leonhardt.

Multiplicity: A busy man starts making clones of himself to substitute at work, etc to make his life easier. His wife gets exceptionally horny one night while he's on a business trip and the clones are roaming about the house. Hilarity Ensues. This was lampshaded earlier in the movie where the protagonist explicitly tells his clone that this is absolutely forbidden, and while the clones tried to resist they're all, at heart, the same guy who still loves her and find they can't do it. The early-generation clones made some effort to resist, but since the third is rather unintelligent (since he's a clone of a clone, rather than the original) he basically just goes "duh, okay."

In Soap, Burt Campbell is kidnapped by aliens, and replaced by a double. This alien sleeps with Mary, Burt's wife, several times while Burt is away.
In series four, married couple Eunice and Dutch are trying to spark up their sex life by role-playing. When they discuss various ideas Eunice asks him why doesn't he do what he did last week: dress up like a burglar, climb in through the bedroom window, remain completely silent, have sex with her and then leave, while taking a piece of her jewelry. She comments that while taking the jewelry away was a nice touch, he should really give it back. He has absolutely no idea what she's talking about and, once she realizes it was an actual burglar, she pretends that she made the whole story up... and, once Dutch leaves the room, waves another piece of jewelry outside the window whilst shouting for the burglar's attention. While the burglar went in with no intention of going after Eunice, he certainly took advantage of the situation once she mistook him.
In another episode Jessica has a defense attorney(played by Howard Hesseman) who quits on her because he doesn't think he can win. A few episodes later he's back as the prosecutor. When questioned about how he could be both at the same time he explains that he has a twin brother and everyone always confuses them. He then mentions "last year we played quite a trick on our wives!"

In the backstory of A Song of Ice and Fire, while Petyr Baelish was passed out drunk after a feast, Lysa Tully went to his bed in the dark and slept with him. In his drunken stupor, Petyr mistook her for her sister Catelyn, whom he loved. This results in Petyr thinking for years that Cat had a secret thing for him, and even when Lysa tells him what happened right before he kills her he still claims he loves "only Cat." Subverted in that 1.) it's not clear that Lysa intended to fool him or even knew about the mixup until he whispered Cat's name mid-coitus, and 2.) Petyr later beds Lysa quite willingly, at least once before leaving Riverrun if he can be believed and again several times after they're married. Petyr is apparently a big believer in the old saying "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with." As long as they're useful, anyway.

The Boys:
The Homelander once convinced Black Noir to pretend to be him when having sex with Queen Maeve. This turns out to be Foreshadowing to the fact that Black Noir is a clone of the Homelander.
The shape shifter Malchemical was moved from Team Titanic to Super Duper after impersonating the leader of Team Titanic. He was only found out when it turns out that the leader's girlfriend was really into the anal Malchemical introduced her to.

Hinata very nearly pulls this one on Shoei, by pretending to be his girlfriend Mio in Desire Climax. For more context, Shoei is nearly blind without his contact lenses and Hinata grew up with Mio and can imitate her fairly well. Thankfully Shoei figures it out before they can get up to anything.

In "The Butterjunk Effect", Amy (long story) jumps into bed with Fry, who thinks she's Leela. They're almost immediately interrupted by the real Leela.
In "T: The Terrestrial", Bender's attempts to cover for Fry's absence seemingly included a makeout session with Leela in a dark closet.

Secret Invasion (2008): During the Skrull Alien Invasion, many of the Skrull imposters ended up replacing a few people that had lovers, who slept with the Skrull imposters without knowing:
Due to Black Bolt being replaced by a Skrull since World War Hulk, it's made painfully clear that his imposter has been intimate with Medusa many times without her ever noticing, a fact that his Skrull captors delight in pointing out to the captured Black Bolt. The jealousy and the idea that she may not even truly love him is what finally breaks his Nerves of Steel.
Before the start of the story, Hank Pym was seduced by a college girl who slept with him, revealed herself to be a Skrull, captured him, and took his identity. And then the impostor started a relationship with Tigra. And since Hank Pym had an unstable personality, no Skrull who took his identity lasted for long, which means that Tigra slept with several different Skrulls during her "relationship" with the Hank Pym imposters. She even became pregnant with one of the Skrull imposter's child, thus making her a target of Norman Osborn's in future storylines, since he wanted to obtain her half-Skrull baby.
With the Mockingbird that joined the West Coast Avengers in Issue #91 being retroactively made into a Skrull impostor, that would mean that Hawkeye's relationship with her would fall into this during that period. She was also the Mockingbird who was killed, while the real one was under Skrull captivity in space.
A Downplayed example in regards to Aunt May and Jarvis, who dated for a time, but unbeknown to Aunt May Jarvis was actually a Skrull imposter. But it's unlikely their relation went beyond some innocent dates.

Voodoo In the second issue, the title (female) character shapeshifts into the (male) partner of Agent Fallon, whom Fallon is sleeping with and who Voodoo has just killed. Voodoo then goes back to Fallon's hotel room and sleeps with her, before the truth comes out the next morning. Though it is never described as 'rape,' and Fallon is more angry over the death of her lover, in issue #8, when Voodoo tries to claim that they shared a legitimate emotional connection, Fallon is quick to point out that she does not love Voodoo at all, and that was simply the bond that she had with her lover. Voodoo admits that, yes, it was meaningless. She then kills Fallon.

A king considers this in Oglaf, then decides it would be simpler to just have the wizard turn into a copy of the woman he desires. Said wizard is not happy about this. This is a parody of the Arthurian legend above. It turns into a Brick Joke later when the wizard transforms into the king to meet the demand of a Hard Gay warrior who demands sex with the king as the price for crossing a bridge.

In Orphan Black, after stealing the deceased Beth's identity, Sarah sleeps with Beth's boyfriend, Paul, tricking him by virtue of looking exactly like Beth. She does it in part because she can, but mostly as a way of convincing him that she's Beth. Deconstructed as Sarah's enthusiasm is actually a clue that leads Paul to figure out the truth. And Paul himself was Beth's monitor and was deceiving her during their relationship. Then, to complicate things, Paul falls for Fake!Beth. Once the secret is out, he transfers his feelings to Sarah, and the two have moved into a genuine relationship. Just before making a Heroic Sacrifice, he tells Sarah that he never loved Beth, but he did love her.

In The Pink Panther Strikes Again, the world's top assassins are out to kill Inspector Clouseau. A French assassin disguises himself as the Inspector to get into his apartment, only to be killed by the Egyptian assassin played by Omar Sharif. The Egyptian then finds a Soviet Femme Fatale Spy in the bedroom Ready for Lovemaking and decides to take advantage by pretending to be Clouseau. Apparently he's such a good lover she falls in love instead of killing him, much to the confusion of the real Clouseau when she later declares her love to him.

In Chapter III, young-and-mean Myo tricked Ashur (madly in love with Myo) into sleeping with Reyle (madly in love with Ashur, who never noticed her) pretending it was for the girl's benefit. The young man, horrified, faked his own death and the girl hid herself away with the resulting baby.

In the SuperMarioLogan episode "Superpowers", Cody obtains shapeshifting powers and takes the form of Chef Pee Pee, as per Junior and Joseph's request, in order to "screw with" Bowser. But while they meant "make him laugh", Cody takes it another way and sleeps with Bowser, believing it to not be illegal because of Chef Pee Pee's age. For his part, Bowser agrees because he likes "Chef Pee Pee's" glasses. Junior doesn't take it well and shocks Cody in revenge, once Cody tells him what happened. At the end of the episode Bowser tells an oblivious Chef Pee Pee that if he's "ready for Round Two", he'll be waiting.

The plot of an entire episode in Kaamelott. After Ygraine explained to Guinevere how Arthur was conceived (see Myths & Religion), she refuses to let Arthur in her bed again unless he can prove it's really him and not another, his best friend for example. This being a comedy, Arthur is too uninterested in his wife to recall any secret only the two of them would share, but it doesn't matter in the end because they never consummated. At the end of the episode, Lancelot is seen asking Merlin about the trick, but gives up when Merlin asks him who he wants to impersonate.

This is used twice in Excalibur:
The first had Uther Pendragon, with Merlin's help, using an illusion spell to take on the appearance of his enemy Gorlois and bed Gorlois' wife Igraine, resulting in the conception of Arthur.
The second occasion has Morgana using a similar spell to make her appear as Guinevere in Arthur's eyes and allow her to proceed to rape him.

Spider-Man:
In The Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #603, the Chameleon, impersonated Spidey and slept with his roommate Michele Gonzales. Somewhat unusual in that this is being played up as an inconvenience to Peter, since Michele never found out and just assumed Peter was being a jerk after sleeping with her.
In The Spectacular Spider-Man #245, the Chameleon once attempted to do this to Mary Jane Watson (as in the above case he was disguised as Peter), only to be defied. When he kisses her, she realizes it isn't him (with an extra spewing of information Peter should have known to be false to make sure), and then proceeded to beat him senseless with a baseball bat.
When Doctor Octopus did a Grand Theft Me on Peter in Superior Spider-Man (2013), he tried to get fresh with Mary Jane as well. She felt something was off because Peter wasn't himself (plus they were no longer together) and Doc Oc gave up his attempts. He tried again later with another woman, Anna Maria, who had no clue about anything. When Peter got back his body and let her in on everything, she was quite stunned by what had gone on. When Otto comes back from death later on (kinda, it's actually a mental duplicate) and tries to be a hero again, he even starts mentally kicking himself for denying her the full knowledge needed to make a conscientious choice.
The second Kraven the Hunter, Alyosha, had slept with Calypso—and only told her he wasn't Sergei while mocking her in the afterglow.
In Scarlet Spider #24, Kaine finds his girlfriend Annabelle waiting for him in his bedroom naked under a Modesty Bedsheet and the scene soon cuts away... to the real Annabelle who is on her way to visit him. Turns out the Annabelle he slept with is actually the villainess Shathra who took the form of Annabelle to seduce Kaine.
In Ultimate Spider-Man, Wolverine attempts this with Mary Jane after he and Peter are body-swapped. MJ declines to go through with it, however, wanting to wait.

A borderline example from Crownies: a woman dresses up very provocatively for a blind date set up by a friend, with someone she's been told is an attractive dentist named Phil. Around the time she's expecting him, an average-looking campaign worker who has been going door-to-door stops by. Before he can get a word in, she asks "Are you Phil?" Distracted by the Sexy, he impulsively answers "Yes". She proceeds to sleep with him, even though he's nowhere near as attractive as she was led to believe Phil is, and he never makes an effort to pretend to be the man she was expecting beyond lying about his name - the implication is that she never gave him a chance to talk after that. When the real Phil shows up, she reports the campaigner to the police and then to the Crown Prosecution Service. Though Richard acknowledges the man's actions could constitute rape by fraud, most of the characters are just dumbfounded by the fact that the woman slept with him for no reason beyond "He said he was Phil." Whether or not the man was charged is left unrevealed by the end of the episode.

However, it's clear that Alflyse had sex with him because she was incredibly attracted to him and his macho mannerisms, rather than because he was posing as Thor. It's also not entirely clear whether or not she already knew he wasn't Thor and was just playing along—she certainly doesn't seem at all upset when the truth comes out, and happily sleeps with him again.

The trope is deconstructed in one of the Gaiden chapters for Kitsune no Ken: Fist of the Fox. In that chapter, one character confides to another about having pulled this on a college roommate seven years earlier; the perpetrator was drunk, saw the victim in bed with blindfolds and limb-straps on in anticipation of kinky sex with someone else, and then pretended to be the expected party while making no sound that would give away the actual facts. However, the perpetrator's guilt after sobering up the next morning led to the two's friendship eroding into a years-long estrangement, with the victim never finding out why. Further deconstructed when the end of the chapter reveals that the victim had, in fact, realized early on who the sex partner actually was but never let on about that knowledge (and was embarrassed about being aroused), and has since harbored some resentment that the perpetrator never fessed up and let their friendship end instead.

Happens in The Supervillainy Saga where it is surprisingly not played for comedy. Gary's wife Mandy was turned into a vampire and he spent the better part of two books trying to get her soul back. He succeeds, or so he thinks, and has a relationship with her. Unfortunately, it turns out he actually brought back the soul of another superhero, Spellbinder, who impersonated his wife for years. Gary reacts with disgust and horror once this is revealed, eventually calling it rape.

There's a certain subset of the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom that suspects that the shape-shifting Emotion Eater Queen Chrysalis might have taken advantage of Shining Armour in this manner during the climax of Season 2. Her Mind Control abilities would certainly make it easy if Shining was unwilling:
One of the few fanfics that doesn't play this conceit for cheap laughs is Cadence in A Minor, which depicts the incident as exactly what it would be in real life: A horribly traumatic experience that messes him up in several ways and threatens to destroy his marriage. (NB: If it's not immediately obvious from the description, anyone with recent experience dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder may want to give this one a miss.)
All-American Girl (Shinzakura) also has a serious occurrence of this, with Chrysalis storing Shining's genetic material and using it to create an army of unicorn/changeling hybrids (Chrysalis terming the species "pepsis"), treating those who show any of their father's nobility as Child Soldiers (especially since she accelerates their aging) and Cannon Fodder.
In My Fluttering Heart, after killing Chrysalis, Shining finds a newborn foal. He soon realizes he had gotten Chrysalis pregnant eleven months ago and that the baby was his. He decides to raise Flurry Heart as his and his wife's.
It is not just with Chrysalis but changelings in general: For example, in Fluttershy Is Free, Fluttershy's father is a changeling who impersonated a pony.

The Mabinogion:
The original contains an inversion: Pwyll spends a year disguised as Arawn, so that he can kill Arawn's enemy. Arawn expects Pwyll to sleep with his queen, but he refuses her.
The Evangeline Walton retelling adds a straight example to counterbalance this. Pwyll is said to be infertile as the result of the time he spent in the underworld, and "his" son Pryderi is actually Manawyddan's son, conceived while Manawyddan is disguised as Pwyll.

A variation in True Lies, where Simon tries to seduce Helen under the pretense that they have to have sex for the sake of some top secret government mission. In reality, he's a used car salesman who has presumably been using this "secret agent" story to bed women for a unknown period of time.

Ajnabee: Vicky proposes to Raj that they take each other's identity for one night so they sleep with each other's wives without them knowing. Raj is horrified at the suggestion and ends up beating up Vicky for merely suggesting it, and it takes a while for them to reconcile. Another night, when both couples are out drinking, Vicky drugs Raj so he would be more amenable to the idea and they seemingly go through with it. But it's later revealed that Raj just ranted to Vicky's wife Sonia about how awful Vicky was before passing out, while Vicky just told lies to Priya to set up Raj to being framed for the murder he's about to commit. But for a while Raj does actually believe he may have slept with Sonia and that Vicky slept with Priya and is anguished and disgusted by the idea.

According to the Talmud, King David was conceived this way. His father, Jesse, was the grandson of a Moabite convert woman, and eventually became concerned that this made his marriage to a full-blooded Hebrew improper (Moabites are forbidden to marry Hebrews, though there was debate on whether or not this applied to women).note It should be noted that his grandmother, Ruth, was a convert (and therefore a Jewess under the Law) at the time his father Obed was conceived. She was legally recognized as a widow entitled to the law of levirate marriage, and her second husband (and Jesse's grandfather), Boaz, made sure that all the protocols were followed before marrying her. So probably no reason for Jesse not to marry Nitzevet. He decided to forgo sexual relations with his wife, Nitzevet, but, wanting more sons, took his Canaanite servant as a concubine (since Canaanites are allowed to have relationships with Hebrews and Midianites). Nitzevet arranged to take the servant's place and conceived David, though Jesse and his sons spent years assuming that she had had an affair.

Battlestar Galactica (2003):
During Season One, Athena pretends to be Boomer to seduce Helo into getting her pregnant on Caprica. Not too hard, since as the same model Cylon they look identical.
The same principle is at work when, in the Season Four episode "Someone to Watch Over Me", Boomer pretends to be Athena in order not to be found out by Helo, who wants to have some goodbye sex. Word of God is that she also did it to spite Athena (who was Bound and Gagged in a vantage point from which she could see what was happening) for replacing her on the Galactica crew and having a happy family. Athena remarks on the irony in the extended version of "Islanded in a Stream of Stars".

X-Factor (2006):
Downplayed with Madrox/Multiple Man as he can be confused with one of his dupes or vice versa, but he never deliberately uses them to trick anyone in this fashion.
Madrox awakens one morning to find that one of his dupes got out accidentally and has been, uhm, enjoying himself. Later, Siryn and M separately tell him how wonderful the night before was, indicating that he slept with one while the dupe got with the other, pretending to be him. It later turns out they both slept with dupes, and that a dupe managed to get Siryn pregnant. Made worse that hadn't even been the first time Siryn had slept with a duplicate of Jamie without realizing it. Seeing how mad she had gotten when he told her what had happened, the first time around, it's kind of frustrating that she fell for the exact same "trick" a second time.
It's heavily implied Reed Richard's Evil Doppelgänger was planning to pull something like this on Susan after he replaced Reed without the rest of the team noticing. His ally, Doctor Doom actually found it so distasteful he had Susan kidnapped for the sole reason of keeping her out of the doppelganger's reach.

In Clash of the Titans, Perseus is born as the result of Zeus disguising himself as King Acrisius and sleeping with his wife Danae. Just as the real Acrisius enters the bedchamber, Zeus changes back with a smirk, having done the deed, turns into an eagle and flies off. Danae immediately gives birth, and Acrisius kills her in a fit of rage. He's about to do the same to baby Perseus, but standing on a cliff in the middle of a storm and waving your sword around like a lightning rod (while screaming insults to the gods) is not a very good idea.

Warrior Cats has a G-rated, but still dark and creepy version. Ashfur possesses the body of Bramblestar, Squirrelflight's mate, and while she's unaware of it the two spend long periods of time alone together, especially in their den. Who's to say they were celibate? Squirrelflight is justifiably furious when she finally learns the cat she sleeping with isn't her real mate.

This occurs in Whiskey and Water by Elizabeth Bear. Matthew Szczegelniak is both a wizard and a virgin, which means that whomever he sleeps with first will gain power. Morgan le Fay has made it clear that she wants this power, so Christopher Marlowe disguises himself as Matthew and offers to trade his virginity for the True Name of his adversary. She accepts, teaches him the name, and then reveals that she knew who he was all along, but had reasons of her own for wanting him to know the name.

After spending the day impersonating Sam while he was out on business (while also being a Jerkass to several people), Sam's girlfriend Luna shows up to consummate their relationship, and Tommy proceeds to go through with it without telling Luna that he really isn't Sam. When Sam finds out about what Tommy did, he is enraged and proceeds to kick Tommy out of his home.

It's happened twice on Once Upon a Time: once in season 4/5 by Zelena, who had disguised herself as Robin's wife Marian, and once in season 7 when Gothel disguises herself as Rapunzel to convince the Wish Realm Hook to sleep with her. Both situations result in pregnancies, though thus far only Robin was able to properly call out his attacker for her actions. In a twist of irony, the daughters resulting from these Bed Tricks are engaged to each other by the end of the series. Strangely, despite having been the victim of such, the Wish Realm Hook had also attempted it on Emma Swan by impersonating her husband (his own counterpart from the original flavor Enchanted Forest), but he decided not to go through with it when he learned she and the other Hook were expecting a child.

The Book of Genesis has a few examples:
Laban substitutes his older daughter Leah for his younger daughter Rachel when Jacob thinks he's marrying the latter. After quite the "battle of wills" between both men, Jacob eventually marries them both.
To avoid this happening again, it's a Defied Trope in an Ashkenazi wedding tradition called badeken, a Yiddish word meaning "check" or "confirm". A bride wears a veil at her wedding—but her fiance is the one who puts it on her, so he can check that this is indeed the woman he wants to marry.
Tamar, a widow of Judah's sons, was due a marriage to another man of the family under the rules of levirate marriage. When it seemed Judah was not going to go through with this Tamar disguised herself as a prostitute and met him on the road, taking his staff and sigil as payment. She conceived twins and, when Judah realized what had happened and she explained her reasons, he was shamed into admitting his mistakes and, while he didn't marry her, he did acknowledge the twins as his children and heirs.

Empowered has a few examples.
The ultimate example, where Ninjette, when she was still with her ninja clan, took an infiltration mission than included consummating another ninja's marriage... As the groom. In-universe she's considered the ultimate Master of Disguise for this, but she mentions at one point that she's not exactly proud of it.
Also of note, Ninjette spends 3 pages in an imagine spot impersonating Emp in bed with Thugboy.
It's also implied in the same page that shows her as the aforementioned groom that she's done this to Emp as Thugboy as well.

The Arabian Nights: There is a very bawdy tale where the hero owns a flying carpet (and it's not Aladdin). He decides to use it by flying to the resident princess' inaccessible tower (she's kept there to preserve her virginity). How does he convince her that he's a man worthy of her... grace? He convinces her he's the freaking prophet Muhammad since only a supernatural entity could have possibly sneaked into that tower. He manages to fool even her (initially skeptical) dad and the entire court, living in luxury for months (and banging the sultan's smoking hot daughter every night) until the cover inevitably falls.

An unintentional (and mutual) example in Frasier. Niles intends to have sex with his wife Maris, their marriage counselor also intends to have sex with Maris, and Niles and the marriage counselor end up in the same bed each thinking the other is Maris, until the lights come on before they do anything and they see that neither one is Maris. Later, Niles claims his first tip-off was the heat coming from the other side of the bed (which would be unusual for Maris).

Mystique, being a Femme Fatale shapeshifter does this a lot, usually to manipulate people or even For the Evulz:
She created a new identity in X-Men as a student known as Foxx, in order to seduce Gambit and break him and Rogue up. Later, when Gambit realizes who she is, she tries to seduce him again by taking Rogue's form and telling him that it wouldn't be cheating if they had sex while she appeared as Rogue.
In a Nightcrawler backstory, Mystique shapeshifts into a frigid maid to sleep with the driver and convinces him to sneak into the castle later that night and asks him to wake her up with sex... all so she can watch the driver be thrown from the house after the maid screams rape when he crawls into her bed that night. He's fired, the maid is mentally scarred, and Raven thinks it's all hilarious.
Another occasion had Mystique testing out her newly upgraded powers by seducing Wolverine in the form of his ninja ex Yukio. On a battlefield while surrounded by dead ninja. Mystique also took pictures and mailed them to Wolverine's current girlfriend.
Played With in Uncanny X-Force. Mystique takes the form of Psylocke to seduce and sleep with Fantomex, in order to poison him without him noticing. But during sex he does notice how different they are in bed and when he confronts Mystique later he implies that Betsy is just much better in bed causing Mystique to be the one that gets annoyed.
In issue 7 of Wolverines Mystique actually uses this as a threat against X-23.

Adam (2019): Adam lets Gillian think that he's a trans man, having sex with her repeatedly (it later turns out she knew early on however). It's also then discussed as well in regards to a murdered trans woman, whom his friend Brad thinks was also doing this, leading to her murder by a man she'd slept with.

The Wheel of Time (2021): Lanfear, one of the Forsaken, pretends she's just an ordinary innkeeper named Selene, becoming lovers with Rand while he's none the wiser. While there isn't a real Selene, as Rand is The Chosen One fighting against her side, he certainly wouldn't have slept with Lanfear knowingly.

A subset of the Star Trek: The Next Generation fanfic community has done this with the pairing of Picard/Q. As Q is an Energy Being with the power to shape-shift at will, and has canonically admitted to be able and willing to transform into a female if the entity thought it could get an amusing reaction out of Captain Picard, there are stories where Q will show up to Picard as a woman with no resemblance to his usual male form and will trick him into bed. For example in [1] Q-ockblocking Q sabotages multiple romantic ventures by taking the appearance of Picard's date for that evening and then assumes his usual male form to let Picard know he tricked him, all just for laughs.
