Mook–Face Turn | comment |
Well, the heroes just got themselves captured in a spectacular case of Cutscene Incompetence. Sadly, the guards are competent and won't let them leave. What are the heroes to do? Talk to the guard. No, seriously. Half the time they're part of a Weird Trade Union or are Punch Clock Villains and otherwise normal people. If somebody is Only in It for the Money, their loyalty can quickly change to whoever offers more money. Ask them if they know what their boss did to Bob, or plans to do to their family. Do they know the scar behind their left ear contains a mind control device? How about that their boss can remote activate a Cyanide Pill he had installed during their last trip to the dentist if things go south? If that doesn't Scare 'Em Straight, then ask them about their wife and kids, hobbies, or sports team. An ounce of Character Development will make them a Mauve Shirt and get them to do a Heel–Face Turn faster than you can say "No Dental". If that doesn't work, just bribe them. Filthy lucre can work remarkably well on the morally flexible, and just because you're heroes doesn't mean you can't exploit the inherent flaws of evil. If the villain keeps a Paid Harem nearby, seducing the concubines or appealing to their good nature usually works. Or just tricking them into getting the key; Mooks often aren't very bright. Mooks turned allies this way might never graduate to the main cast, but even if they don't do a full Heel–Face Turn, the heroes will have made an important ally for the episode and the mook in question will get all the attendant perks and dangers of being a Mauve Shirt. This can be especially beneficial to some heroes, as these Mook Face Turners can be Defecting for Love. Even if the Mook doesn't fully complete a Heel–Face Turn, it can be useful to invoke a Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal and prove that The Dog Bites Back.

TRON: Uprising: When a bunch of innocents are captured and shipped off in a train to be killed, Beck breaks aboard and fights off one of the guards. He doesn't kill the guy, and when the train crashes, the Guard helps him find the prisoners out of gratitude and take them to safety. Tessler kills him on the spot. In Tron's back story, he was pretty badly tortured, and then taken away in a Recognizer. One of the guards, Cyrus, witnessed the torture and commented with respect that Tron was one of the few who didn't scream. He later releases Tron, and seemingly sabotages the Recognizer, carrying Tron off, telling him that they can't let the revolution end before it has a chance to start. Though offscreen, he did a Face–Heel Turn and became even more evil. |

Occasionally in Fire Emblem, if you can get close, you can talk to one of the enemy units and get them to join you for various reasons, or you can kill them and just keep moving. Half-way through Fire Emblem: Awakening where after Emmeryn's Heroic Sacrifice, the Plegian Army deserts their king en masse. |

In Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, the palace guards of Yusnaan are bent on shooting Lightning full of holes to protect their Patron, Snow Villiers. However, in Snow's palace, she finds one guard who'd rather help her, noticing a tragic change in Yusnaan's Patron. He figures that the so-called "criminal" Lightning is actually here to help, what with her literally being called the "savior" and all, and is eager to help. He serves as a mid-dungeon item shop. | |

In the first half of the Looney Tunes cartoon "Prince Violent", Yosemite Sam has a pink elephant helping him try to break into Bugs' fortress; however, with each failed plan, Sam yells at the elephant and occasionally clubs him, eventually telling him to get lost so he can do it himself. After a few more failures, Sam finally manages to get in, only to find that the elephant is working for Bugs now (both because Bugs is nicer and pays him with peanuts) and chases Sam away with a club. | |

In Fullmetal Alchemist: The Elric brothers are able to recruit all four Chimera soldiers from Central out from under Kimblee. Al does it by making them remember that they are still humans and can try to get their bodies back; the ones Ed gets don't mind being chimeras as much but join him because he saved their lives after Kimblee blew them all up. In a later chapter, a platoon of soldiers sent to kill Olivia Armstrong on orders of their superiors, quickly join her side when attacked by Sloth and the alchemic zombies. Their greatest moment comes when they selflessly and at great risk try to slow down the superfast Sloth with a chain. |

Archipelago begins with a certain raven spirit being washed up on shore (along with the poor guy he's possessing). An unlikely set of circumstances results in him gaining a proper, human soul, along with proper, human free will, and pretty soon he starts choosing good instead of evil. He ends up as an essential member of the team and the heroine's Love Interest. | |

One rather memorable occasion happens halfway through Divinity 2 after you've taken out the commanding Black Ring Battle Couple in an outpost. A Black Ring mook who saw the whole fight immediately says "We surrender!" and his friend replies "What? No, we don't, traitor!" The first mook points out that the protagonist just singlehandedly slaughtered their commanders, so the two of them (the only ones left) would stand no chance. The second mook admits that it's true and immediately offers to sell you stuff so he can be useful. | |

A very spoilery example in The Last Guardian, our friend Trico was one of many beasts controlled by the Master of the Valley (a sort of Magitek A.I. that controls Trico's kind via signals picked up by their horns). When Trico was returning with the boy for him to be processed, he was struck by lightning and crashed into a mountainside, breaking his horns in the process. With his horns broken he can no longer be controlled and becomes the boy's friend and the two eventually end up destroying the Master. | |

In Moonraker, tricks Hugo Drax into talking about his plan to exterminate everybody who doesn't fit into his genetically perfect "master race" in front of Jaws, who then turns against the villains. Seeing his bespectacled, short, and somewhat plain-looking girlfriend standing beside the supermodel-level women that make up the female half of Drax's group didn't help either. | |

In Iron Monkey, the crooked Governor's chief of police, Chief Fox, starts growing disaffected with his work after seeing the Governor order an innocent boy imprisoned just to force his father, martial arts master Wong Kei-Ying, to stay in town and battle the Iron Monkey. After Wong Kei-Ying decides to ally with the Iron Monkey, the monstrously evil Imperial Minister orders Wong's son to be publicly tortured to draw both his father and the Iron Monkey into an immediate rescue attempt. At this, Chief Fox just plain flips out and tries to both single-handedly rescue the boy, and then kill his way through the Imperial Minister's Dragon and accompanying mooks. Being just a mook, he obviously fails, but he most certainly did try. | |

Played with in The Order of the Stick: One of the common Hobgoblins is found by an Elven Black Ops Team (yes, this is as heartless as it sounds) on the wrong side of the whip in an Azure City slave camp because he was racist towards one of the normal goblin immigrants. He pleads to defect sides. The elves proceed to lead him to the edge of the rooftop and throw him off. | |

Star vs. the Forces of Evil: After getting back from a mission rigged to make him fail, Buff Frog gets fired from Ludo's minions and kicked out of the castle. Star notices him sulking outside and starts feeling bad for him (along with questioning the morality of her family legacy). Since offering his help to take down Toffee, Buff Frog and Star become really good friends. She even tries to give him a job in the castle, but he leaves his position when it looks better to get him, his children, and his monster neighbors out of the crumbling kingdom of Mewni and its growing hostility. | |

Happens with alarming regularity in the Metal Slug series. Anytime a threat other/greater than General Morden's army appears, said army that you were just shooting to pieces last level is fighting alongside you. Not effectively, of course, but enough to partially excuse the final levels' preposterous volumes of enemies and add to the hectic/epic feel of those stages. Could be justified. Usually bigger bad kidnaps their leader and rebels are, well, humans. They actually fight for Morden's ideals, not because they like killing people. So, bigger bad comes in and tries to wipe out humans and/or them, what do you do? |

James Bond In Moonraker, tricks Hugo Drax into talking about his plan to exterminate everybody who doesn't fit into his genetically perfect "master race" in front of Jaws, who then turns against the villains. Seeing his bespectacled, short, and somewhat plain-looking girlfriend standing beside the supermodel-level women that make up the female half of Drax's group didn't help either. In A View to a Kill, the villain Max Zorin goes ahead and floods the mines fully aware that the workers and his Dragon Mayday are down there. Mayday and Bond survive. Upon discovering she was betrayed, and seeing her dead friends as well, she helps Bond remove the bomb and sacrifices herself, taking it out when it explodes. |

Stargate-verse: Most of an entire race of mooks did this over the course of the series. The Jaffa started out worshipping the Goa'uld as literal gods and served them as foot soldiers. In the pilot episode, a Jaffa leader defected from his people to help the main characters. Over the course of the series, it's revealed that he was long skeptical of the Goa'uld's purported godhood. He is a member of the team while contributing to a seditious rebel movement among the Jaffa at the same time. Eventually that movement grows and, with the help of the Tau'ri and other factions, defeats the Goa'uld. A democratic government of Jaffa is founded. The re-edited "final cut" version of the pilot two-parter "Children of the Gods" makes Teal'c's defection look less like a sudden spur of the moment decision. It is made especially clear there that Teal'c was horrified by Apophis' atrocities (and the ones he himself committed in the name of his "god") and was planning to betray him all along, but only carried out his wish when he found potential allies with technology rivaling those of the Goa'uld: the Tau'ri. A much later example in the series has a captive SG1 and Bre'Tac (and a few of their Jaffa fifth column agents) released by a guard after they convince him he's serving a charlatan who would have willingly thrown said guard to the wolves. In the show's final moments (namely, the movie Ark of Truth), former Ori worshipper Tomin turns against them and helps SG-1 defeat Adria. It had previously been shown that Tomin was a decent, moral man who happened to be following evil aliens, and he had begun questioning their orders as of late, especially when so many orders consisted of the genocide of unbelievers. |

In a deleted scene to The Last Jedi Finn confronts Captain Phasma backed by several stormtroopers. When Phasma accuses him of treason, Finn addresses his former comrades instead and reveals to them how he'd pressed Phasma into helping him destroy the Starkiller base. Despite Phasma's denial, it looks like the doubt is sinking in them, but before they can do anything, Phasma just drops them all with blaster shots. | |

Farscape had the Defecting for Love variation with Aeryn Sun. Later done again in "PK Tech Girl" with Gilina. In her case, she returned again to save John's hiney when he got captured, but their budding romance was cut short. What? Being a Mauve Shirt on an Anyone Can Die show is risky business!

Damar in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine wasn't a mook by the time of his Face–Heel Turn (though he started out as one), but the fact that the Dominion treated him like one even though he was nominally the Cardassian head of state was a major factor in his change of side. A straighter example from the series finale comes after the Dominion glasses a major Cardassian city, as a warning/punishment for civilians beginning to join the rebellion (previously it was only Cardassian military officers who had taken action against them). Par for the course with this trope, it backfires, and rather immediately: Colonel Kira and some members of La Résistance are captured and about to be executed on the spot when two Cardassian soldiers gun down the Jem'Hadar in vengeance, and shortly thereafter the Cardassian element of the Dominion fleet defending Cardassia follows suit (as soon as long-range communications are restored and word reaches them) in the middle of fighting off the joint Federation/Romulan/Klingon taskforce that had been attempting to invade them. Nice Job Fixing It, Villain! |

Happens surprisingly often in the Super Robot Wars: Original Generation games, although the enemy is usually in the protagonists' captivity. Most of the examples wear a Mauve Shirt if not an Ace Pilot badge, but Ryoto gets a special mention for being such a low-level grunt that the bad guys decide to blow him up to kill you. Happens often in the main Super Robot Wars games as well, naturally, since they incorporate many Anime plots that use this trope. |

A Beginner's Guide to the End of the Universe has the protagonist try and befriend the attacking giant bird monsters. A giant sparrow becomes "intrigued by the prospect of identity, of a purpose beyond destruction, of not being shot by that badass purple dog", and becomes pacified enough to cease actively attacking. The protagonist needs to use his powers to elevate it to something more than a mindless mook, though, but then it becomes his loyal sidekick and gets a badass name. | |

This is one of the main features of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Anytime you Brand an Uruk they join your army in your mission. The sequel, Middle-earth: Shadow of War, goes even further by having your Uruk's become genuinely loyal to Talion over the course of the game, to the point where the DLC features Uruks who join your side without any Branding at all. Notably, one of them, Ogg, The Bow of Morgoth, originally served none other than Morgoth himself. | |

One of the character stories in Sonic Adventure is revolved around a robot mook of Dr. Eggman's, E-102 Gamma. At one point in the game, Gamma is sent to interrogate the imprisoned Amy Rose for her Flicky ally. In desperation, however, Amy pleads with Gamma to feel pity for the bird and release them. Achieving empathy, Gamma reluctantly complies, leading Amy to befriend the robot and convince him to turn sides. He sets upon a "rescue mission" to free the animals inside his mistreated E-Series brethren before ultimately destroying himself. | |

Johnny in the original Metal Gear Solid, was just one of the many faceless Genome Soldiers that Solid Snake encountered in Shadow Moses. For some reason, he fell in love with Meryl, the woman who took his clothes and left him naked, and then became one of her subordinates in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. It runs in the family. Naked Snake encounters Johnny's grandfather in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and can befriend him in an Easter Egg. While he's too scared of his boss to actually let you out of the cell, he'll tell you about his family and inadvertently give you the password to escape along with a weapon. It's eventually played straight in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, where Snake can recruit Johnny as a member of his unit. |

First, Agent 99 pleads, "Think of your wives! Your children!" This gets the mooks to point their guns at the captain, for about two seconds, until the captain reminds his crew that they aren't married. The agents and the captain then get into a debate with offers and counteroffers. | |

Teen Titans She's not exactly a mook, but Jinx has one of these thanks to the surprisingly sweet attention Kid Flash keeps giving her. It's completely in line with the comics, too. The Flash has an odd relationship with his Rogues Gallery. Atlas' assistant abandons his former master after Robin points out that the robot is mistreating him. |

Inverted in South Park: The Stick of Truth as your character, the new kid Douchebag, is in effect a Mook of either Cartman or Kyle. During the battle between Elves and Humans at the school, the leader of the enemy faction (you can choose who to ultimately side with) will come over the P.A. system and attempt to use this trope on you, trying to get you to turn to their side. | |

Subverted in Jade Empire: after you close or destroy the mechanism for the Two Rivers dam, a Lotus Assassin arrives with a squad of Imperial soldiers. You can try to talk the sergeant out of fighting, but he will say that he doesn't care for the lives of the citizens, only for serving the Emperor. Played straight with one of Gao's men and a soldier who was pressganged into the army to replace one the Lotus Assassin killed. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Thorax in "The Times They Are a Changeling". Rumors about a changeling in the Crystal Empire cause a mass panic, but seeing the Mane 6 together during the invasion of Canterlot inspired Thorax to seek out mutual friendship instead of the one-sided Vampiric Draining that Chrysalis and the other changelings are known for. |

In Haunting Ground you have the option of sparing the Obliviously Evil Debilitas, who in turn reveres Fiona as a holy figure. Not only is this the only way to get the best ending, it also gives you the option of pulling a Screw This, I'm Outta Here in a New Game Plus: Debilitas literally just gives you the key to the main gate of the castle, allowing her to just bail right then and there, skipping a solid two-thirds of the game and getting a particularly satisfying cutscene of the Big Bad having a Villainous Breakdown as he helplessly watches Fiona leave. | |

Although Syndrome claims he knew Incredible was bluffing, Mirage is furious that he gambled with her life, and later aids the Incredible family in escaping the island. | |

It runs in the family. Naked Snake encounters Johnny's grandfather in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and can befriend him in an Easter Egg. While he's too scared of his boss to actually let you out of the cell, he'll tell you about his family and inadvertently give you the password to escape along with a weapon. It's eventually played straight in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, where Snake can recruit Johnny as a member of his unit. | |

This works especially well on bad guys who keep their minions in line through fear. In an episode of Transformers: Animated, a villain with metal-melting acid powers coerced the Dinobots into doing his dirty work, then ordered them to his aid when he was incapacitated. When Prowl pointed out that he couldn't harm them in his current position, they swiftly turned on their former master. | |

In the Doctor Who episode "Into the Dalek," this happens to a Dalek named Rusty. The Doctor accidentally restores it to its evil default, then tries to bring it back to its good state by establishing a mental link with it. However, from his perspective, he fails, as the Dalek sees the Doctor's hatred of the Daleks and decides to exterminate the Daleks. This also happened a few seasons earlier with Strax, a Sontaran who got punished for a transgression by being appointed as The Medic (a grave dishonor for a Proud Warrior Race Guy) and later ended up befriending two of the Doctor's allies in Victorian London. | |

This is how Jayne gets recruited in Firefly. Mal bribes the mercenary into his team with better pay and his own bunk. Mal was so persuasive that Jayne shot his former employer! Jayne is more likely a Jerkass with a later developed hidden heart of gold. Although he did switch sides, it had nothing to do with good or evil, as neither side was obviously good or evil in that scene. Or the entire show - morality and gray areas were a major theme of that show. |

The Wander over Yonder episode "The Little Guy" deals with Wander and Sylvia reforming one of Galactic Conqueror Lord Hater's Adorable Evil Minions through The Power of Friendship. This also happens with one of Lord Dominator's Bots but in that case It was a bit more tragic and quite the Heroic Sacrifice because it hid the coordinates to a planet that would have allowed her to power her ship forever and continue destroying worlds For the Evulz. |

Played with in Mega Man Legends where a trio of the Servbots leave the Bonne Family Pirates team and decide to open a restaurant on Kattelox Island. The irony being that, despite how harsh she can treat them, Tron Bonne thinks of them as family and rather than simply leaving they clearly asked her permission to do it, and she not only gave it but actually helped them legally take out a loan to do it. | |
