A Comedy Trope where somebody refuses to take a bath for a long time, usually because they hate baths, until everybody gets sick of how bad they smell, drags them to the bathroom (with them protesting the entire way), and hurls them into the tub for a good scrubbing down. Expect a lot of whining about cold water, overly hard scrubbing, or getting soap in one's eyes. For extra humiliation, the victim may be doused in perfume or lotion, scrubbed down in sensitive areas or forced into embarrassing clothes immediately afterward. They emerge squeaky clean and smelling like flowers, but almost always extremely grumpy as a result. Common victims of the Forced Bath include small children, pets (especially cats), soldiers, and tomboys getting unwanted makeovers. Sometimes, a character might realize that Baths Are Fun when they try it properly. Related tropes: Bathe Her and Bring Her to Me: A more serious related trope where the villain orders a female captive to be bathed and prepared for him. Filthy Fun: What frequently precedes this trope. Hates Baths: The reason usually given why someone is refusing to take a bath... The Pig-Pen: ...and the reason why everyone gets sick of it and hurls them into the bathtub anyway. |

Henry Huggins: In Ribsy, when Ribsy the dog ends up separated from the Huggins family, he finds himself with another family who has four excitable daughters. The girls set about bathing poor Ribsy, who glumly accedes to this since they outnumber him. It becomes more than Ribsy can bear when the youngest one pours the entire bottle of scented bubble bath into the bathwater. Ribsy makes a desperate escape from their clutches and spends the night at a gas station, where the petrol fumes partially negate the haywire lavender aroma. | |

PAW Patrol: A Running Gag for the famously hydrophobic Rocky. Whenever Katie is giving the other dogs baths, he'll go well out of his way to avoid it, only for Cali to rat him out. He's then shown not enjoying his scrub-down in the least. | |

Commonplace in The Beano. Sometimes it'll be Dennis, Minnie, or Roger trying to avoid the bath, but the biggest case is Smudge, who had this as his entire gimmick. He loved getting covered in mud, so getting a forced bath was a regular occurrence for him. The same is true for an earlier character from its stablemate The Dandy, Dirty Dick. | |

The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh: At the start of "Stripes", Tigger is happily stomping in mud puddles until the gang ambushes him and throws him into a wash basin. He's less than pleased about this, and he's spitting out water and protesting the whole time. This then washes off his stripes, thus setting the episode's plot in motion. | |

It's noted that Mr. Messy isn't used to bathing and the illustration shows him frowning. By the time it's over, he looks completely different and he quips that he'll need a new name now. | |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998): In "Down 'n' Dirty," Buttercup refuses to take a bath and starts smelling increasingly worse until she gets kicked out of home and then run out of Townsville. However, rather than everyone else forcing her into a bathtub, she forces herself; the last straw is when not even monsters want to fight her because she smells so bad. When she yells in frustration, "All right! I'll do it! I'll take that stupid bath!" her sisters immediately haul her home at light speed and scrub her clean, which she's not happy about. | |

Grumpy is the only one who refuses to wash, so the other six dwarves promptly drag him to the tub and roughly scrub him down, while tying ribbons into his beard and draping a flower crown around his head to embarrass him. | |

Garfield and Friends: In the segment "Clean Sweep," tired of giving Odie a bath every time he gets dirty, Jon buys a Laundro-Mutt robot to give Odie a bath. Every time the sensor collar detects Odie getting dirty, the robot grabs Odie and gives him a bath. Seeing this, Gafield gets Odie dirty a few times, thinking that seeing Odie being miserable is hilarious. Odie gets fed up with Garfield making fun of him, so while Garfield takes another nap, Odie slips on the sensor collar on Garfield and wakes him up by serving him a messy meal. When Garfield gets dirty eating, the Laundro-Mutt grabs Garfield and gives him a bath, all the while Odie points and laughs at him. In the end, they make peace, put the sensor collar on Jon, and when they get him dirty, the Laundro-Mutt grabs Jon and gives him a bath. | |

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Percy has to clean all the poop out of Geryon's stables, which are home to a herd of meat-eating horses. A water naiad teaches him to use petrified seashells to summon saltwater, which he uses to wash out the stables. When he's done, everything is sparkling clean, including the horses, who have been cleaned so thoroughly that their coats are shining and even the meat scraps between their teeth have been washed out. | |

When the guards intervene, she lies down outside the showers, claiming she's "demonstrating passive resistance."

Rarity is absolutely filthy after a thousand years of rolling around in dirt and dust with rocks she thought were precious gems, and is reluctant to take a bath until Spike drops her into the bathtub. Twilight and Applejack proceed to scrub her down and brush out the rat's nests in her mane with a lot of complaining, with Twilight thinking to herself that it might have been easier to just set Rarity on fire and let her immortality regenerate a new, clean body for her. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: In A Clash of Kings, after Alebelly hears a prophecy from Jojen that he's going to drown, he won't take a bath or go near the well until six of the guards throw him into a tub of hot water and scrub him clean. The prophecy turns out not to refer to literal drowning, but to Alebelly's murder by the seafaring Ironborn when they storm Winterfell. In A Storm of Swords, when the Brotherhood Without Banners stays at Acorn Hall, Lady Smallwood has her maidservants take Arya upstairs and wash her down, the girl resentfully noting to herself that "they even dumped in some stinky-sweet stuff that smelled like flowers." When Gendry sees her freshly washed and wearing a dress, he laughs so hard that wine spews out his nose. |

The Ancient Magus' Bride: Played with in the first chapter. When Elias buys Chise (who had sold herself into slavery and is implied to have been denied things like baths during that time) and takes her home to become his apprentice, he orders her to take a bath soon after they arrive. It's not the bath itself that Chise opposes, but Elias' insistence on being there in the bathroom with her and helping scrub down her naked body. He does so anyway, much to her embarrassment. | |

Photon: When Keyne Aqua awakens to find measly Photon in her bed, she tries to obliterate him with "aho energy," but Photon is too dodgy to die. Resigned to merely conversing with him, Keyne detects a foul odor and asks Photon when he last bathed. "Two months ago," he replies. Keyne leads him to her starship's natatorium, where she strips him naked and tosses him in. Photon has a Wouldn't Hit a Girl ethic, so he puts up only a token resistance while Keyne pours liquid soap on him, and starts washing him vigorously. | |

The War Wagon: Lomax tells Billy that any man who shares his horse has to be sober and clean, and then throws him into the river fully clothed. Lomax tosses him a bar of soap and Billy starts washing himself... over his clothes. | |

Winnie the Pooh: In "In Which Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest and Piglet Has a Bath", Kanga bathes Piglet against his will as part of her pretending to think he's her son Roo. He hates this because he's a Messy Pig (in this story anyway), and because she keeps putting the soapy cloth in his mouth. | |

In the Hey Arnold! episode "World Records," Arnold and Gerald attempt to break the world record for longest time without taking a bath, but the other tenants living in Arnold's apartment eventually can't stand the smell anymore and bombard Arnold and Gerald with soap and water as soon as they come inside the building. | |

Yeralash has a sketch where two adults sneak into a sleeping boy's room, pull a pistol from under his pillow, grab him, and drag him to a dark room. A minute later, the lights go on, the two parents with dirt-stained faces hold their kid, wrapped in a towel, and say "Finally managed to bathe him." | |

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared: In "Time", the sentient clock Tony inflicts this on the cast (despite them already being clean). It's one of the early signs that he doesn't respect their agency. | |

Exaggerated and ultimately defied in the Spongebob Squarepants episode "Gary Takes a Bath". Gary, being an analog of a cat, won't take a bath, and SpongeBob goes through increasingly outlandish and desperate measures to try to get him to do so. In the end, after the last of these measures backfires, SpongeBob winds up being the one who takes a bath, and Gary ends the episode without ever taking one. | |
