A character is betrayed by the very ones who are supposed to be protecting them. In both Real Life and fiction, pretty much the most effective method for killing a head of state or other highly protected target, since they're the only ones allowed in their presence with weapons. Hence, this usually ends up with the victim dead, but in rare cases (especially if the attempt is on The Hero) they survive to seek their revenge on the guards, or whoever was manipulating them. Many cases of The Dog Bites Back will involve this, particularly in the case of Dragons who betray their Big Bad masters. Often done via Betrayal by Inaction or Unfriendly Fire. May be a manifestation of Even Evil Has Standards. A Cadre of Foreign Bodyguards was a common way to subvert this trope in real life, since a unit of foreign warriors with no attachments or ties to local political rivalries or ruling families has fewer reasons to indulge in this trope. In Real Life, rulers have tried setting up a Praetorian Guard—an elite bodyguard unit directly reporting to the leader—to reduce this risk. Unfortunately, as nine Roman emperors found out, the Praetorian Guard may get a "better offer" from the rival to the throne. Leaders who create a Cult of Personality and then recruit only rabidly loyal followers who worship them as bodyguards may be more likely to avoid this trope, as these guards will be zealous followers. As this is a Betrayal Trope and sometimes a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

John Rain: In Winner Takes All, hitmen John Rain and Dox decide to kill their target during an arms deal and make it look like one of his bodyguards decided to steal the money. They're bemused to have this very scenario happen before they start shooting (though the bodyguard is a terrorist who wants to steal the weapons, not the money). | |

A minor example from The Good Shepherd. Matt Damon's character, essentially the head of the nascent CIA, occasionally meets his Soviet counterpart, codenamed Ulysses. Late in the film, it's revealed that Ulysses' aide is funneling information to the Americans, direct from the source. The aide doesn't kill Ulysses or even cause him any direct harm, but his actions are definitely a betrayal in the general sense. | |

Heralds of Valdemar: In Oathbreakers, Tarma pulls this in order to avenge Captain Idra, who was raped and killed by her brother, the king of Rethwellan. The series also provides a widespread invoked example of this with the Haighlei. Each of the kings of the various Haighlei kingdoms has the sons of the other kings as their personal bodyguards to make it very difficult to declare war on each other, as doing so would be asking for at least one bodyguard to betray them. |

In The Sentinel (2006), the Secret Service finds out that one of them is involved in a plot to assassinate the President, but they focus all their efforts on the main character because his story doesn't check out. This is due to him sleeping with the First Lady, though. The real traitor is doing this to protect his family. He does get a Redemption Equals Death ending, however. | |

In the first Suikoden, Pahn betrays the young master after Ted comes back from his fateful meeting and reveals the secret of his Rune to them. In this case, Pahn is trying to keep them from betraying The Empire, which would be bad, given that the hero's father is one of their best officers and all... Pahn also eventually regrets his actions and switches back to your side; however, this can lead to a delayed case of Redemption Equals Death if you don't pump enough time and money into leveling him up before he pulls a You Shall Not Pass!. | |

In Suikoden V, Georg Prime is accused of killing the queen and kidnapping you. He really did kill the Queen, but it was a Shoot the Dog moment that she and her husband had him agree to so she doesn't blow everything up with the Sun Rune. You also run away with him by choice. Straighter examples of this would be Zahhak and Alenia, filthy Godwin devils. In the first Suikoden, Pahn betrays the young master after Ted comes back from his fateful meeting and reveals the secret of his Rune to them. In this case, Pahn is trying to keep them from betraying The Empire, which would be bad, given that the hero's father is one of their best officers and all...

Monster has fun with this. After the death of the Baby, Petr Capek is paranoid that his bodyguards are trying to kill him at Johan's request. This leads to him killing a bodyguard while the man is reaching for his lighter, thinking that the bodyguard was trying to grab a gun. This in turn causes his other bodyguards to shoot him, in retaliation for him killing one of their innocent comrades. Martin is told to do this when Eva outlives her usefulness to the mob, but the Bodyguard Crush gets in the way, even when Johan's Bastard Understudy tries to talk him into it. Roberto is introduced as Muller's bodyguard, leading to this. |

In the Jack Ryan novel Executive Orders, an Iranian sleeper agent inserted into the US Secret Service, years ago, is activated to assassinate Jack Ryan. Another Iranian sleeper agent at the start of the book succeeds in killing "The Moustache" (presumably Saddam Hussein, from context elsewhere in the book, but never mentioned by name), years after working his way into the Iraqi security service and working up through the ranks. | |

In Umineko: When They Cry it turns out the mission of Ange's bodyguard Amakusa isn't quite what he told her. Well, it is; he just failed to mention the second part of the mission: get rid of Kasumi's faction, and dispose of Ange if she becomes a burden. He effectively kills her in two arcs. In the Trick Ending, she manages to see through the plot though. | |

In one filler episode of Naruto, Kunihisa, a spoiled rich kid who accompanies Naruto to see what it's like to be a ninja, uses money to get his helpers to do what he wants, calling it his own kind of ninjutsu. When some kidnappers target him, his bodyguards desert him, as he's out of money and they don't like how they've been treated, teaming up with the kidnappers instead. | |

In Final Fantasy XII Vossler sells out the main party — which includes Ashe, the princess — to Judge Ghis to obtain some degree of autonomy for Dalmasca. Subverted earlier in the game with Basch, who was framed as having done this to Ashe's father King Raminas. The alleged motive here was misguided patriotism after Raminas's surrender to the Empire. |

The Godfather: During Michael's stay in Sicily, he notices his bodyguard Fabrizzio hurriedly walking away from his villa. As his wife Apollonia gets into the car, Michael suddenly realizes what's going on, but it's too late to stop her from turning the ignition, triggering the Car Bomb that Fabrizzio rigged and killing her. Vito's bodyguard Paulie called in sick the day that an attempt was carried out on Vito's life. Naturally, it's not a coincidence. |

In The Lost Regiment novels, the Merki Horde has a unique post that doesn't have an equivalent in the Tugar Horde. Shield Bearers are trained from among the White Clan to protect the Qar Qarth (chief of the entire horde) and the Zan Qarth (the heir apparent). However, they are not merely bodyguards. A Shield Bearer is also supposed to be the Qar/Zan Qarth's closest friend and advisor, as they train themselves not to think "what would a warrior do?" but "what is good for the Horde?" As such, one of the Shield Bearer's duties is to kill his charge, if this proves to be beneficial to the Horde as a whole. However, there are specific rules on when and how this must be done. The decision to kill the Qar Qarth can only come from the White Clan council, while the death of a Zan Qarth must be ordered by the Qar Qarth. Even then, it is usually preferred for the death to be honorable (i.e. face to face), although extreme cases allow for a dishonorable one (i.e. In the Back). Additionally, the Shield Bearer is expected to die at the burial ceremony of his charge. | |

Expect anyone with a bodyguard in the WWE and other federations to have said bodyguard turn on them eventually. The one that comes to mind immediately is Shawn Michaels being betrayed by Sycho Sid. This trope is also often inverted. When the bodyguard becomes too successful, expect them to be betrayed by their protegee, like when HBK attacked Diesel because he was overshadowing him. |

Requiem for the Phantom has Godoh Daisuke being shot at point-blank range by his best friend and right-hand man, Shiga, at the instigation of Scythe Master. Unlike most other examples of this trope, Shiga truly respected and admired Godoh and, even after taking over the Godoh Group and turning it into an affiliate of Inferno, loathed Scythe for setting into the motion the events that led to the murder. | |

Rusty's father, Professor Venture, may have been killed by his bodyguard—Kano has steadfastly refused to talk about it, even after his vow of silence was lifted. What we do know is that the bodyguard of Rusty's grandfather opted to break the Orb rather than kill his boss. | |

In the expansion to Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, Firestorm, the Inner Circle are murdered by their cybernetic bodyguards via minigun to the face when their super-advanced tactical bio-computer, CABAL, betrays them and takes command of the Brotherhood of Nod's Cyborgs. The player character's commanding officer, Anton Slavik, is able to escape because he doesn't have Cyborg bodyguards and his headquarters are mobile. Justified by information provided in C&C3: Slavik's chapter of the Brotherhood, the Black Hand, is generally distrustful of advanced machines. CABAL was an exception, and only due to the fact that it possessed knowledge of Kane's plans in the long run... or so it seemed. | |

This happens near the end of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice. Queen Ga'ran's royal guard has Phoenix, Apollo, and Nahyuta at gunpoint, but once she is exposed as a fraud who is ineligible for the crown because she can't channel spirits, they all immediately turn their guns on her instead. Ultimately, though, nobody gets hurt, as Ga'ran passes out from the strain she put herself through and the royal guard leaves it at that. | |

The Elder Empire: When Nathaniel Boreas betrays his allies the Consultants, Shera turns to his bodyguard and says "it's time to come home." Said bodyguard immediately stabs his boss with great relish. Normally the Consultants don't have their Shepherds (the deep-cover spies) perform assassinations, because they tend to be emotionally attached to their targets. Nathaniel Boreas is such an asshole that the closest thing he has to a best friend attacks him with zero hesitation. | |

Raven in One Must Fall 2097. (If his ending is canon, anyway) Even in the backstory Raven was grooming freelance assassins for the job, only waiting until his future career and retirement were assured before finally choosing to let one of them get by him. (And his employer knew it.) The peculiar circumstances of the tournament just provided Raven with a perfect opportunity to legally and openly kill his employer and set himself up for life just by doing so. |

As the President is about to get in touch with people to try to find Olivia, several Secret Service agents walk in and inform him that most of the White House staff, including them, is working for the VP. That means that everything the President does is being monitored, so he better stick to the plan and send in the troops. A few episodes later, the President signs an executive order, disbanding his security detail and bringing in the Marines to protect him. It's never specified how the VP managed to get the Secret Service to betray their commander-in-chief. | |

An inadvertent version in Rome. In a public move to increase the number of commoners in the Senate, Julius Caesar promotes former centurion Lucius Vorenus to the rank of senator and orders Vorenus to stick close to his side to learn the ropes. He later reveals his actual motive is to use Vorenus' reputation to deter assassination. Unfortunately one of the conspirators has discovered that Vorenus' wife had a child with another man, and reveals this secret to Vorenus on the day of Caesar's assassination so he will rush home instead of following Caesar into the Senate house. | |

It's false of course; she was actually offed by corrupt officials who had launched a coup, and they used Corvo as their scapegoat.

Middle-earth: Shadow of War: The good news is, all it takes to assign a dominated captain as a Warchief's bodyguard is to pit-fight against other applicants.note The insanity of selecting bodyguards to trust by pitting them in a fight to the death for power and glory is deeply lampshaded. But, as Bruz puts it, it's fun to watch; you get to see the action up close, your captain will level up if he wins, and he'll drop his gear for you if he loses They'll even get in a sneak attack if you target the Warchief yourself. The bad news is, the Uruks found out they CAN rebel against your brainwashing, and now they can turn this trope on you. note Your personal Orc bodyguard might turn on you if you've been humiliated in battle too many times, leave them to die, or most commonly, accidentally kill their blood brother that they forgot to mention to the guy they've been overshadowing all day. | |

In Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, you can take advantage of this trope once your character gains the ability to brainwash Orcs. If they happen to be working under a Warchief they can be sent to backstab him in hopes of becoming the new Warchief.

A Song of Ice and Fire: Ser Jaime Lannister, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, known as "The Kingslayer" for his killing of Aerys II Targaryen during Robert's rebellion, leading even people on the rebel side to consider him an untrustworthy villain due to the closeness of the betrayal. It says something about how bad things had gotten because, by the time Jaime is made Lord Commander, it's not just an unpopular political appointment: he probably was the best one left for the job. Yes, the despised Kingslayer was the best Kingsguard knight they had. He had a good reason, for that betrayal of his, however... not that people fully admit it. That no one else knows the full story, which would exonerate him even more (that he killed Aerys after learning the Mad King planned to burn all of King's Landing with wildfire and kill the whole populace rather than let the city be taken by the rebels), yet he still was made Lord Commander, just further reinforces both the dominance of his House and the general crapsackiness of the situation given that, bar Barristan Selmy, he was better than any others. A member of the Kingsguard tries to murder Tyrion Lannister during the Battle of the Blackwater. He immediately suspects his sister Queen Cersei is behind the attack, though we have no confirmation in her point-of-view chapters. Although King Maegor "The Cruel" Targaryen had his entire remaining Kingsguard famously abandon him in the only such mass betrayal in what is technically this trope, it's not widely considered a true example by those writing the histories of the Seven Kingdoms. Because this "disgraceful" Kingsguard went on to support his nephew, Jaehaerys "The Wise" and, incidentally, the next king — and, by doing so, stuck to others of their oaths as knights sworn to the Faith of the Seven, not just the Throne. The very Faith that Maegor partially got his sobriquet for messily persecuting in the first place. As noted above, the culture of Westeros generally takes a very dim view of this kind of thing, regardless of which side is left writing or singing the histories. There is, however, one other notable exception living solidly in Conflicting Loyalty territory. When the last two monarchs of House Durrandon in the Stormlands both decided to defy the Targaryens during Aegon's Conquest, their remaining guards (both city and personal) came to the reasonable conclusion that they'd rather not repeat the lesson learned from Harrenhal, thanks. After they learned of the defeat of the last Storm King (and his whole army) on the field, and upon hearing his daughter swearing Defiant to the End vengeance in response, they promptly gave the walled city and keep of Storm's End up to the Targaryen army... after capturing, stripping and then wrapping their stubbornly defiant "Storm Queen" Argella in chains. They then unceremoniously dumped her at the feet of her future husband, Targaryen commander Orys Baratheon, as part of the surrender (she married him because he was nice to her and had her clothed and treated respectfully after this). Although they're not lauded for these actions, they're conspicuously not condemned for them, either. Because... what the hell else are you supposed to do against a real, live fully-grown, castle-killing dragon known to be capable of melting stone (Meraxes, ridden by Rhaenys Targaryen), when all you have is, basically, a pike line on top of some suddenly very flimsy-feeling walls, since most of your army buddies have already become mince or charcoal and you've got a city of civilians to defend? Yeah. |

Done very well in Quantum of Solace. When interrogating Mr. White, one of the leaders of Quantum, he mocks them by saying "The first thing you should know about us is that we have people everywhere.", at which point he turns to the aide following M everywhere and adds "Am I right?" - he pulls a gun and shoots the other MI6 agents. | |

In King of the Castle, the Intimidation scheme, which multiple regions can pursue, involves bribing the members of the Palace Watch to help the region's claimant overthrow the King. If the scheme reaches its final stage, the nobles can vote to have the Watch either stand down while they storm the Palace and assassinate the King, or escort the King to them and force them to become a puppet under threat of assassination. If the Honour Guard are from the scheming region, they will also be complicit in the plan (otherwise, they may be killed trying to defend the King). | |

Discussed in The West Wing (as seen in the page quote); President Bartlet, not wanting to receive a flu shot from his personal physician, jokes that this could be the start of a coup and wants the Secret Service in the office. The physician retorts that there's no guarantee that in the event of a coup, the Secret Service will be on Bartlet's side. Bartlet remarks that this is a thought that's "gonna fester". Otherwise averted, however, as whenever we saw them the Secret Service were depicted as professional and utterly loyal to the office of the President. | |

Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy XII Vossler sells out the main party — which includes Ashe, the princess — to Judge Ghis to obtain some degree of autonomy for Dalmasca. Subverted earlier in the game with Basch, who was framed as having done this to Ashe's father King Raminas. The alleged motive here was misguided patriotism after Raminas's surrender to the Empire. In Final Fantasy XV, almost all of the Kingsglaive betray their country and join forces with the Niflheim Empire, and King Regis is slain by one of the Glaive. |

The Rose of Versailles provides a rather unusual and heroic example: Oscar is a member of the Military Household of the King of France and a personal friend of the queen, and seeing how France is going down the drain due to the government's ineptitude she spends many years trying to get her to be the queen France needs and use her influence on the king to clean the government's act before it's too late... But as the queen is Marie-Antoinette she doesn't listen, and once her direct superior in the French Guards sends orders to fire on the rioting Parisians Oscar instead leads her troops in a mutiny and joins the assault on the Bastille (in which Oscar dies), effectively starting The French Revolution. The unusual part is that while Marie Antoinette and the court react with the appropriate horror once they find out the French Guards do not march on Versailles to kill the royals, the queen never stops considering Oscar the best friend she ever had, to the point that, between the sessions of her trial, she even expresses regret for how their last encounter went and for not listening to her advice when it could have made a difference. | |

This is what Karamazov and the Inquisition think happened in If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device. The Emperor cannot leave the Golden Throne, and the Adeptus Custodes rarely allow visitors, so the Custodes must repeat the Emperor's orders to the masses. So when the Emperor gives out an order disbanding the Inquisition after ten millennia of silence, the Inquisitors decide it's more plausible that the messengers were lying, and suspect a conspiracy. | |

Game of Thrones: Jaime "The Kingslayer" Lannister killed the Mad King seventeen years before the series started. He's been regarded with suspicion ever since for breaking his oath to protect the king, even though everyone was delighted the crazy old git was dead. This has no small part in his resentment towards Ned Stark. Somewhat justified by the high premium that is (at least publicly) placed on honor. In the books, Ned Stark was the first to find Jaime sitting on the Iron Throne and Aerys II at the feet thereof, so he believed that Jaime had at least considered usurping the throne. When the Gold Cloaks turn on Ned at the end of "You Win Or You Die." Ser Mandon Moore of the Kingsguard tries to kill Tyrion during the Battle of the Blackwater, though this isn't a perfect example in that the betrayal is somewhat tangential, (i.e. the king's bodyguard attacks the king's right-hand man.) Meanwhile, Tyrion's own bodyguard (squire, technically) Podrick Payne shoves a lance through the attacker's face. The spymaster Varys tells Tyrion his sister Queen Cersei is behind the attempt, but Cersei later implies that King Joffrey is the culprit. Through a bit of duplication magic, this is how Pyat Pree kills the Thirteen. The parting between Tyrion and Bronn can be seen as a very understated version since it concerns a bodyguard refusing aid in a time of need because he's received a better offer. And in the series finale, Jon Snow assassinates Daenerys for going off the deep end after she proposed marriage so he could be her consort/bodyguard/legitimacy loophole to the throne. For some reason, Drogon ignores him and blames the Iron Throne itself for her death. With lots of fire. Ralf Kenning is rewarded with an axe to the head when he refuses to surrender to Ramsay. Of course, those that do surrender don't fare much better. |

However, not only has Mulluck been paying attention to their own schemes, but it turns out Aslik and Morguer have left their Slig bodyguards right outside their office, bodyguards that have been cheated out of promised bonuses. Mulluck's Slig Chauffer recruits their help with a bit of bribery, a vacation, and promised bonuses, and that's all the Sligs who need to turn on their masters. | |

In Fate/stay night Servants are meant to protect and fight for their Master, but on four occasions the Servant willingly betrays their Master. In the backstory Caster gets fed up with her original Master (a mage Too Dumb to Live by virtue of summoning the Witch of Betrayal and failing to earn her respect), tricks him into wasting all his Command Seals (the orders she would have to obey), and then murders him. In one bad ending Saber kills Shirou in order to obtain her wish. In Unlimited Blade Works Archer betrays Rin and joins forces with Caster so he can kill Shirou. Later in the same route Gilgamesh, who had agreed to act as Shinji's Servant, forcibly converts Shinji's body into a vessel for the Grail. | |

Warhammer 40,000: The fate of Mad Lord Vandire in the fluff, assassinated by his own Amazon Brigade bodyguard once they finally saw Vandire had snapped. Probably the leading cause of death for Dark Eldar Archons. For precisely this reason, Archons generally employ Incubi for their protection, as they are outside the chain of command and loyal only to the one who pays them. Orks also function on Klingon Promotion. However, seeing as orks naturally get bigger the more orks they command, an ork nob had better make damn sure he's certain to win the fight against the boss. Amusingly, it also causes them to be bad at actually at Bodyguarding a Badass- if the boss decides to take on an enemy and the nob shoots/hits it first, it's essentially the nob saying "You suck at killing things", one of the worst insults in orkdom, and followed by swift disciplinary action. |

(She gets what she deserves in the end.) In the Overworld Arc, Rikshakar is hired to be Ariel's bodyguard when she travels to the surface. He turns on the group, kidnaps Ariel, and tries to rape her.

After enacting a campaign of genocide on the dark elves that led many to worry that they were becoming no better, Tethlis made a pilgrimage to the Sword of Kaine, an Artifact of Doom wielded by the first Phoenix King. The official story is that a dark elf assassin was waiting for him on the isle, but it's strongly suspected that the truth is he tried to draw the sword and his bodyguards cut him down in fear that he might succeed. | |

Disgusted by the Radiant Name's disregard for the lives of those who serve him, his captain-Protector orders the retreat and then kills his master himself. | |

A dramatic, awesome, and oddly enough heroic variant in The Order of the Stick. During the Godsmoot, Roy finally realizes how the undead Durkon — really the High Priest of Hel — has tricked him, and how enormous the stakes are. However, by the rules of the Godsmoot, none of the other bodyguards may intervene; a bodyguard that dares raise his weapon against another cleric is put to death. However, there are no rules for a cleric being attacked by their own bodyguard... | |

In the Warrior Cats book Shattered Sky, Rain offers to watch over the wounded Darktail for a while. Violetpaw decides to bring a piece of prey for Darktail to eat when he wakes up, and she returns to find Rain suffocating their leader. It looks for a moment as if he's successful, but it turns out that Darktail was just Playing Possum: when Rain turns away, Darktail jumps up and kills him in revenge. | |

Anita Blake: This happens to Anita in one of the earlier books. A werewolf who is supposed to protect Anita from her enemies turns her over for human sacrifice to her vampire master. Quite a while later, about the same thing happens again (although it doesn't end up the same way). Interestingly, both planted bodyguards are female. |

In Zorro, the Gay Blade, the Big Bad's soldiers are loyal to him up until the last minute of the Zorro-led revolution. In the end, the Big Bad (and wife) are surrounded by his soldiers (guns pointing out), who are in turn surrounded by an angry mob. The troop leader sees which side his bread is buttered on, and commands, "ABOUT FACE!" | |

Queen of All Oni: Just prior to the climax, a now utterly delusional and paranoid Queen Jade decides to eliminate her chief minions, including Battle Butlers Left and Right, and replace them all with people who have been brainwashed to have no free will, and therefore can't ever betray her. Right happens to overhear this, and thus during Jade's duel with Tarakudo during the Final Battle, he quite literally stabs her In the Back, allowing Tarakudo to win. | |

Star Wars Legends: The Thrawn Trilogy: How Admiral Thrawn finally goes down. Thrawn betrayed the warrior race he was using for bodyguards, lying to them and poisoning their world to keep them in indentured servitude. When his personal guard found out about this, he stabbed Thrawn. It's also the reason Palpatine's cloned-bodies plot couldn't continue indefinitely; one of his supposedly fanatically-loyal Royal Guardsmen tampered with the source DNA being used to create the clone bodies, so eventually every single Palpatine clone would start degenerating/aging way too fast to be of any use. |

Inverted in the Ciaphas Cain (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM) novel Death or Glory: Cain and Jurgen accidentally stumble upon Korbul, the warboss leading the invasion of Perlia, along with his nob bodyguards. However, the nobs don't attack, as to do so would imply the warboss is too weak to do the job himself, and therefore a challenge to his authority (which to orks would count as Bodyguard Betrayal). For the same reason, Jurgen stays out of the fight, as this would give the nobs a reason to attack him. Once Korbul goes down, the nobs start arguing over who's in charge. | |

Mass Effect: Andromeda: The original asari pathfinder Matriarch Ishaara was betrayed by her bodyguard, the legendary commando Sarissa, who went off to steal some vital data instead, leaving her charge to be killed. The role of pathfinder automatically passed onto her instead. However, Sarissa wants to cover up this fact, presenting the Pathfinder as an inspiring figure for others to look up to. If you choose to reveal her actions, the asari ark ship’s captain can fire her as Pathfinder. | |

The Wolf later uses the story as an example of how the worst crimes in Westeros are Easily Forgiven (from his perspective, at least) to Jaime himself. | |

Implied in Kingdom Hearts. A key part of the original game's backstory involves the revelation that Ansem the Wise was betrayed and overthrown by his rogue apprentice Xehanort, who stole Ansem's identity and became the leader of the sinister Organization XIII after losing his heart and becoming a Nobody. In the prequel Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, a few future members of Organization XIII, like Braig (Xigbar), Dilan (Xaldin), and Aeleus (Lexaeus) are shown as guardsmen in Ansem's castle at Radiant Garden, implying that Xehanort convinced them to turn against Ansem during his coup. | |

In Babylon 5, Londo's girlfriend is killed by the Shadows, who plant evidence to suggest that Lord Refa is the culprit, as revenge for Londo keeping Refa on a half-poison leash. Londo spends a long time planning his revenge. It culminates in Refa traveling to Narn (occupied by the Centauri) with his personal guards. They go into a bunker, which turns out to be full of angry Narns. Londo appears as a hologram to let Refa know that it was Londo's plan and the bodyguards came from Londo's House. The bodyguards then do an about-face and calmly march away, as Refa is swarmed by the Narns. | |

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth 2: The president of Zheng Fa that we meet in the game is actually his Body Double. Sick and tired of putting his life on the line without having any actual power over anything, the body double killed and replaced the real president, posing as the Head of Estate for more than a decade. Problems arise once it became obvious that the body double was a spineless coward that could only pretend to be the strong leader that the real president was. With his popularity numbers on the gutter, the fake president devised a plan to stage an assassination attempt during his visit to Gourd Lake in order to drum up some sympathy support, kickstarting the events of the game. | |
