Bob flushes the toilet while Alice is in the shower. Alice screams and curses, unprepared for the sudden increase in water temperature. Or perhaps Alice turns on the washing machine while Bob is in the shower, causing Bob to experience a precipitous drop in water temperature. Can be done deliberately or by accident, but the result is still funny — provided it's not happening to you. Can also be done by turning on a faucet elsewhere in the house, which has the advantage of not prematurely giving away the game if you are deliberately pranking someone. Usually deployed as a comedy trope, often accompanied by a quick shot of the Oh, Crap! expression on Alice's face when she hears the unmistakable sound of a toilet flushing. Truth in Television as most shower valves mix hot and cold water to achieve the desired temperature, so anything that diverts either hot or cold water will result in a sharp temperature shift in the opposite direction. Note that this was always a regional trope as it depends upon the central water heater practice common in non-tropical Western plumbing design but not always found in other cultures. Rapidly becoming a bit of a Discredited Trope in Real Life since the introduction of pressure-balanced shower valves specifically designed to prevent this from happening — the worst that's likely to happen is that the shower's water flow temporarily drops. Such "anti-scald" shower valves are even required by law in some places, especially in commercial buildings like apartments, hotels, and dormitories. Nevertheless, if you have the (mis)fortune of being in a house or building with old plumbing, this trope is still doable. |

Done on The Simpsons twice: Season six's "Bart vs. Australia" — Bart is trying to get the toilet water to go counterclockwise and repeatedly flushes the toilet. Meanwhile, Homer is in the shower and keeps screaming "Hot-cold-hot-cold-Who's-doing-that?!" Season twelve's "Tennis the Menace" — Bart turns on the kitchen faucet and Homer (once again in the shower) screams, and to tunes such as "Mary Had a Little Lamb". |

Nash Bridges: In "Sacraments", when the officer on SIU team Evan is having a romantic shower with Nash's daughter Cassidy, Nash's partner Joe drops by with info on SIU current primary investigation. Try as the pair might keep their relationship secret for a while more, Joe has to flush a tissue of his allergy snot down the toilet. Cassidy yelps, jumps from behind Evan and rips a curtain off. All that's left is for her and Joe say "Hi" to each other. |

It is revealed in one of the Penny Arcade podcasts that for the entire time they lived together (a period of "at least a year"), Jerry (Tycho) would wake up early and turn on the taps to allow all the hot water in the apartment to run down the drain. The moment where Mike (Gabe) learns why he didn't have a hot shower during the whole time is priceless. The episode is for the strip "Doctor Feelgood". Strip. Podcast. The story starts at about 17:10, but the whole thing is really funny. |

In The Sims 2, if one Sim flushes the toilet while another is in the shower, the second Sim will jump out of the shower, run over to the first Sim and yell at them in Simlish. Of course, someone made a mod to disable this. Although sometimes the Sim in the shower will jump out and yell simply because another Sim has entered the bathroom, even if they don't flush or even get to use the toilet. Sims have to have a very close relationship to share the bathroom; generally, only lovers will do it. |

Mixels manages to invert the setup in the episode "Hot Lava Shower". Thanks to the Infernites clearing the pipes of the titular lava shower (which really is a stream of lava treated like water), the clog goes through the pipe system of Mixel Land, superheating both Krader's toilet and Teslo's drinking fountain, making them the ones to scream out from the heat instead. |

Neal Stephenson's early work The Big U has one student getting revenge on his former roommate by getting a small army of friends and other acquaintances, synchronized by a TV news broadcast, to do a big flush that actually destroys the plumbing system in an entire wing of the arcology-university. Was also coupled with supergluing shut the door to the shower stall, and then setting a "poorly insulated" electrical appliance in front of the expanding pool of water. |

Done in The Fairly OddParents: Channel Chasers, with Cosmo being in the shower and Timmy flushing the toilet. Fridge Logic hits when you remember that they are a magic shower and magic toilet, so, not interconnected (probably just Rule of Funny). |

The Flash Sentry Chronicles: At the start of Jakhowls Rising, Springer tries to find Flash, and discovers he and Twilight are showering together, with them claiming they are "conserving water". They try to shoo him away so they can finish, and on his way out, he purposely flushes the toilet and runs out of the castle as he hears the two of them screaming in pain. |

FoxTrot One strip has Roger singing "Burning Love" in the shower at an obnoxious volume, prompting Andy to tell Jason, "There's a valve in the basement marked 'Cold Water Shutoff'..." Another has Paige suddenly screaming that the shower always runs out of hot water when she's in it. Cut to Peter admiring Jason working the magic shutoff valve. |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In the live action opening segment of the "lost episode" special, Patchy the Pirate is taking a shower when the audience arrives. In order to draw Patchy out and start the special properly, Potty flushes the toilet to make the water hotter. It works, but Patchy admits that he can't start the special because he lost the lost episode and goes back to taking his shower. |

In the PC version of A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004), there's a bathroom with a man (presumably Count Olaf) taking a shower. If you flush the toilet, he'll scream and then yell "WHO FLUSHED?!". |

A Zoo Tycoon commercial shows this happening to a woman. Thing is, though, the one flushing the toilet is an elephant. |

In the first Garfield live-action movie, Garfield flushes the toilet with the apparent intention of forcing Jon to exit the shower due to the increase in water temperature (he has, by Garfield's estimation, been in there too long). |
