A character gets an illness or an injury and another character spends most of the episode nursing him back to health. By the end of the episode, the "patient" got over his illness, but realizes The Caretaker has caught the illness from him. He decides to take care of the now "patient". Another manifestation of the trope is when a parent/protector used to take care of the child and, a few years later, the child takes care of the aging parent/protector. May also happen to the Cloudcuckoolander's Minder if they take a blow to the head or visit Cloudcuckooland. This can be Truth in Television in many families with small children and a stay-at-home parent. It is not rare for the stay-at-home parent to get an infection from the kids before the parent who works outside the house. Also, if a person gets an illness and accidentally spreads it to another member of their household, they might recover before the other person does, leading to this trope. A typical ending of the Sick Episode (which may overlap with Here We Go Again!). Compare to Now, Let Me Carry You. A subtrope of Hourglass Plot. |

In Mini Sengoku Basara, Motonari has a fever and Motochika insists on trying to cure him by strapping a fish to his head and cooking up some stew which looks...kinda like the inside of a black hole. Later Motochika gets sick and receives a visit from Motonari, who repays him in kind. | |

At the end of the episode, Finn gets sick as well, and Jake rushes to do everything for him as well...until he realises that Finn has just fallen asleep. | |

The minuscule mummy Mii-kun of How to Keep a Mummy is generally too small to be able to take care of Sora during the show's Sick Episode. He's still able to help by using his own body as a cool washcloth for Sora's forehead. It's all well and good, except by the next day it turns out Mii-kun has caught Sora's cold. | |

The Big Bang Theory: in Season 1, Sheldon gets sick and makes Penny take care of him. In Season 3, Penny gets injured and makes Sheldon take her to the hospital and take care of her afterward. What connects these two instances most solidly is the song "Soft Kitty." Sheldon teaches the song to Penny to sing to him ('cause that's what his mother did when he was sick as a youngster). Then when Penny is injured she makes him sing it to her. | |

Kung Fu (1972): in "Besieged: Cannon at the Gates", Caine is lying on the ground mortally wounded after he sabotages a cannon firing at the Shaolin Temple, and his Girl of the Week is leaning over his body comforting him. Then the Dragon with an Agenda stabs her; she becomes limp, and Caine reverses positions with her as she dies. Suddenly he's fine. See it here, starting at 3:55. | |

Our Miss Brooks: A Caretaker Reversal revolving door, in "Old Age Plan." The story begins with Mrs. Davis having cared for her sister Angela, and falling ill from Angela's complaining. By the end of the episode, Mrs. Davis has recovered and Angela has again become ill from Mrs. Davis' complaining. Meanwhile, Miss Brooks had spent the episode shilling Mrs. Davis and Angela's club's old age plan to Mr. Boynton and Mr. Conklin. The two men end up suffering psychosomatic symptoms of old age. Miss Brooks decides to invite them over to Mrs. Davis' house, and fake the symptoms of old age to distract Mr. Boynton and Mr. Conklin from their symptoms. The climax of the episode has Miss Brooks, Mr. Boynton and Mr. Conklin rapidly experiencing illness and being placed on the sofa with a blanket and ice pack in turn. |

The M*A*S*H episode "Carry on, Hawkeye" is mostly about the majority of the camp (including three of its four doctors) falling ill, leaving Hawkeye and Margaret to run things. At the end, Hawkeye finally succumbs to the flu as the rest of the camp begins to recover. In the final scene, he's a) almost alone in the post-op and b) the recipient of the camp's gratitude. | |

Little Women has an emotional variation: Marmee is usually a pillar of quiet strength, wisdom and comfort to her daughters, but in moments of extreme crisis, she reveals that she's Not So Stoic and her daughters comfort her: When they receive the news that Mr. March is dangerously ill in Washington, Marmee faints, and then stretches out her arms to her daughters and begs them to help her, and they all gather around to comfort her. When the family realizes that Beth is dying, Marmee again stretches out her arms to Jo "as if for help," and Jo goes to comfort her mother. The film versions from 1933, 1994 and 2019 likewise all have Marmee sobbing in Jo's arms, as does the 2017 miniseries; the 1994 and 2017 versions before Beth dies and the 1933 and 2019 versions afterwards. |

Flip-flopping through this trope is how Jaime and Brienne's friendship gets started in A Song of Ice and Fire. Originally, Brienne is Jaime's guard, and has to protect him from all kinds of dangers (including some that he gets into on purpose to get on her nerves). Later on, when the two of them are taken prisoner by the Bloody Mummers, Jaime winds up spending a lot of time protecting *her*, since of the two of them, he's the hostage who's too valuable to kill, and therefore has a little bit of leverage. By the time they're freed, they're pretty much protecting one another. | |

An emotional variation in Little Women (2019): After Beth's death, Marmee's eternal strength crumbles and she breaks down sobbing into Jo's chest. The script explicitly describes Jo as taking on the parental role in this moment while her mother is like a child in need of comforting. | |

"Is There An Ed In The House" of Ed, Edd n Eddy. At the beginning, Sarah has a cold, and Double-D, Ed, and Jimmy take care of her. Near the end of the episode, Double-D comes down with Sarah's cold, which leads to Jimmy rushing up to Double-D saying: "Jeepers! You sound sick, Double-D! You shouldn't be outside; you need some TLC, mister!" He leads Double-D back into his house to take care of him, much to Double-D's objections while Eddy just stands there. | |

A variant occurs in Pokémon the Series: XY. A flashback shows that Ash and Serena first met in a summer camp when Ash came upon an injured and lost Serena in the woods, bandaging her injured leg and leading her back to their camp. In the present time, during, coincidentally enough, another summer camp, Ash and Serena fall off a cliff, but this time around, Ash is the one who got an injured leg in the process, so Serena had to take care of him until help arrived. | |

In Ethan Frome, this happens three times with Zeena: Before their marriage and life together in Starkfield, Zeena was healthy and knowledgeable about medicine, taking care of Ethan's mother. During the majority of Ethan's story, Zeena spends her time claiming that she's ill and having Ethan care for her. Then, after Ethan and Mattie's Bungled Suicide, when they both acquire crippling injuries, Zeena takes care of them, even 20 years after the accident. | |
