| Live-Action Escort Mission | comment |
Our intrepid adventurer or team of explorers has been tasked with a simple mission: Get someone from point A to point B. Unfortunately, the person they are tasked with escorting is a spoiled kid or otherwise Too Dumb to Live and while they know they need to be escorted, they have no qualms against running away, going on side missions, fiddling with artifacts they shouldn't be fiddling with, making noise and attracting enemies, and generally refusing to obey the people escorting them. It can remind you of a video game. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Worse yet, the adventurers don't have the authority (or the balls) to just discipline their charge, who is a princess, diplomat, or other important figure who they don't dare upset, and whose word might be believed over their own. If the team is lucky, the escortee will get captured or hurt, teaching them that relying on their social status to get what they want doesn't work well in the real world. If they're unlucky, the escortee might decide to Ditch the Bodyguards and go out on his own. Exactly why anyone is willing to take such a job voluntarily without being given the needed authority over the escortee is hard to explain without Genre Blindness. Or you were ordered to do it, or desperate, or didn't know what the person would be like, or were misled, etc. Related to Badly Battered Babysitter, The Load. See also Escort Mission.

Inverted in the first season The Man from U.N.C.L.E. episode "The Four-Steps Affair" where Solo and Kuryakin are tasked to prevent THRUSH from kidnapping the 10 year old leader of an Asian country. The boy, far from being spoiled, is at least as (if not more) mature and worldly wise than his caretakers: | |

Naruto: The third movie involves Naruto, Kakashi, Sakura, and Rock Lee escorting a foreign prince and his son back to his homeland. The prince's son is a brat, and Naruto nigh-instantly gets fed up with him and tries to smack him upside the head. Many Naruto filler arcs have a plot like this. It seems that every mission involves escorting a Jerkass Muggle. |

World of Quest is an entire series of this. Quest himself is tricked into it, the others just like Quest and think it'll be fun. The escortee, Prince Nestor, is an incompetent jackass most of the time.(Though he becomes relatively useful in fights, his ego still causes way more problems than his skills can fix, particularly since the other members of the party are still way more useful in fights.) | |

The "diplomat" version occurs in Stargate SG-1. SG-1 is ordered to escort members of the IOA to the Alpha site. When it is overrun by carnivorous bugs, the IOA delegates demand that SG-1 continue protecting them. They do refuse to obey orders a bit at first but when they see how serious the situation is, most of them shape up. | |

They find themselves being pursued by a number of assassins (possibly Mossad), and later discover that even Cowley isn't giving all the support he could because they're serving as The Bait.

In The Greatest American Hero episode, "The Hit Car," Bill and Ralph transport a gun moll to court. Unfortunately, she is seemingly a complete flake who insist of being driven to the courthouse, a journey which the heroes are repeatedly attacked by hit men where Ralph and his super suit is the only means of fighting them off. Eventually, they get the woman to court, only to have her plead the Fifth and they realize the whole gauntlet was arranged specifically to target Bill. The partner's differing reactions are worth noting; the badly battered Bill Maxwell is all 'oh damn' but Ralph is furious. | |

One of the funniest episodes of Teen Titans was in season 5, where Raven got sent alone to escort three "younger" heroes to a safehouse from the Big Bad types trying to kidnap them. No one told her that the oldest was 4, and the youngest still in diapers. Hilarity Ensues all around. Especially when they stop for the night. Take note, when asked to tell a bedtime story she slightly dumbs down the Trigon arc into a hilariously funny tale of horror for the little kids. | |

The titular character in Dutch has to escort his girlfriend's snotty son Doyle home from prep school. While he gets his own back plenty of times, Dutch can only go so far because he really wants to win Doyle over before proposing to his mom. He also refuses to abandon the boy no matter what, because that would end his relationship with the mother. Doyle senses all this and takes full advantage. | |

On Person of Interest, this is extremely common given the way in which John Reese has very little information about what is going to happen to the potential victim. Rather justified, as to the persons of interest, having a random stranger appear and begin shooting at the people that are trying to kill you isn't really an invitation to stick around. | |

In the Stargate Atlantis episode "Harmony", the team has to get the titular bratty pre-teen princess to a set of ruins deep in the forest to perform a ritual that will make her queen. | |

Ciaphas Cain: During his stay on Gravalax, a planet half taken over by the Tau and their sympathizers, armed conflict breaks out between both sides initiated by genestealers on both sides. Cain is tasked with escorting the Tau back to safety in an Imperial Guard truck as the Tau's transport is shot down. Most of the Tau are all too happy to keep their heads down and follow Cain's directions, but one idiot among them overhears a Planetary Defense Forces checkpoint talking about how the Tau started it. The dumbass springs out of hiding to claim thery're all lies, the PDF refuse to stand down and are about to radio about the Guard traitors they've stopped, and Cain is forced to order his troops to shoot the PDF. | |

A common storyline in Burn Notice, considering the We Help the Helpless series premise. Most notable in "False Flag," in which the threat and the escortee swap roles halfway through. | |

Appears in both Conan the Barbarian (1982) and Conan the Destroyer as the reasons for Conan's quests, although the princess in the first movie barely appears and is much less annoying than the one in the second. | |

This happens a lot in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, although whether he's escorting Willie, Shortround, or both changes moment to moment. | |
