When the New Meat joins The Index Team for an adventure and ends up saving the day and everyone's asses on it, earning them a permanent membership. If this happens in the first episode and the new member becomes The Leader, this is a Rookie Red Ranger, a specific Sub-Trope. Often a delayed Establishing Character Moment. Compare We Work Well Together, where everyone on the team is new, but they end up sticking together, anyway.

In From the Earth to the Moon, when Apollo 12 is hit by lightning, producing glitches everywhere, EECOM John Aaron proposes "try SCE to aux," a procedure unknown by most, including Flight Director Gerald Griffin and Commander Pete Conrad. Rookie Lunar Module Pilot Alan Bean does, and this saves the mission. | |

In Issue #31, a penny-ante crook discovers an artifact from another dimension and uses it to launch the Justice League into space in an attempt to asphyxiate them. However, this was thwarted by their latest inductee Hawkman, who uses his anti-gravity belt to bring them back to land. The team was then able to track down the villain thanks to Hawkman, but the villain uses his device to create an amalgamation of the present team which defeats them all except Hawkman, who figures out the amalgamation's shortcomings and defeats the villain. | |

The first episode of Nash Bridges' sixth season introduces us to new detective Antwon Babcock just in time for him to participate in the investigation of a mad bomber. At episode's end, they find the bomb in the trunk of a car, but there's no time to defuse it. Antwon jumps into the driver's seat and drives it into the bay, bailing out at the last second. He earns a standing ovation. | |

In the end of the first volume of Death Vigil, it is the newest member of the Vigil, Clara, who saves everyone from the Pale Court's trap with her teleportation abilities and good old investigative skill, although this isn't the straightest example, as she is all but revealed to be the host of a Primordial—who is even older than the Vigil itself and just happens to work with them at the moment without them knowing. | |

Downplayed in Labyrinths of Echo. On his first official Secret Investigations case, Max comes up with a creative solution that lets them save Melifaro's life and kill the Monster of the Week, while his new colleagues' ideas basically boil down to sacrificing Melifaro to make sure the monster cannot escape. | |

In Claymore, Clare is the newcomer to the Paburo Hunting Party (Helen and Deneve were definitely working together before, and are implied to have at least known Miria) and to hunting Awakened Beings in general, being the lowest-ranked warrior of the Organization at the time. Still, it is quickly revealed that because she became a Claymore solely to destroy a specific Awakened Being, her entire skillset is geared towards killing them, and she ends up saving everyone from a Total Party Kill that the Organization hoped this would end in and becoming a True Companion of the other three. | |

Advanced V.G. II introduced Tamao Mitsurugi's character as a huge fan of series protagonist, Yuka Takeuichi. Not only was it her first tournament appearance, she defeated several of Yuka's old rivals, as well as Yuka, herself. Then went on to ultimately defeat both the main antagonists: Saki Shinjo and Miranda Jahana, all of whom were older and experienced martial artists. Making this an egregious case of Instant Expert, since Tamao hadn't had any training, yet not only saved everyone, she became the third canonical champion of the VG tournament at the age of 14, by simply emulating Yuka's fighting style. | |

In Avatar: The Last Airbender, Toph Beifong is introduced in Book 2, Chapter 6. Late in the episode, when Sokka's and Katara's attempt to rescue Aang and Toph from angered pro-bending wrestlers, who think the two cheated them, goes about as horribly wrong as can be, Toph's father tries to reason with the ringmaster, saying that Toph is a tiny, blind, and delicate girl. Being called weak for the millionth time by her father causes her to drop her girly-girl facade in front of him entirely, and proceed to thoroughly wipe the floor with every pro-bender present, without the help of The Avatar. | |

Happened twice on the galactic scale in the Mass Effect lore: during the Rachni Wars, the krogan, who have only recently joined the galactic spaceflight club, save the Council Space from the Rachni. Later on, when the krogan themselves go rogue, the turians, also newcomers on the galactic arena, hold them off, earning themselves a permanent place on the Council. In the series proper, humans are also the newcomers on the historical time scale, but end up rallying the rest of the galaxy to beat back the Reapers. | |

In season 2 of Acquisitions Incorporated, Aeofel joins the eponymous adventuring company as The Intern. In the Final Battle, the villains are so busy taking down the core party members that Aeofel gets through relatively unscathed and ultimately goes mano-a-mano against the end boss, killing him in single combat and preventing a Total Party Kill. He sticks with the group for four more seasons. | |

On Teen Titans, Terra (whose superpower is to move the earth with her mind) makes a serious attempt to join the team just as they're being attacked by giant robots that burrow underground; naturally, her powers make her vital towards saving the day. Justified since it's revealed that Terra is acting as The Mole for Slade, the supervillain beind the robots. He deliberately staged an attack that would let Terra show off her skills, impress the Teen Titans, and earn herself a spot on their team. | |

Downplayed in Doctor Who, at least within the revived series, where it's typical for a new companion to save the doctor on her debut episode, more or less as a way of proving her mettle to his satisfaction. | |

Digimon Adventure 02: Davis, Yolei, and Cody are all recruited ("chosen") to serve as replacement Digidestined, since the original team is incapacitated. Each of them gets to save the day during their respective first adventures in the Digital World. Davis Motomiya's and Veemon's first day on the job as second-generation Digidestined is an example. Answering a distress call, Tai, TK, and Kari all enter the Digital World and discover that their Digimon partners can't evolve and are at risk of being enslaved by the Digimon Emperor. Davis enters later, meets his new partner Veemon and earns the Digimental of Courage, enabling Veemon to Armor-Digivolve to Flamedramon and save Kari (Davis' crush) from an enslaved Monochromon. Yolei and Cody, also new recruits, save the day with their partners, Hawkmon and Armadillomon, during their first stint in the Digital World. The Digimon Emperor, learning from his mistakes, immediately imprisons Davis and Veemon, preventing them from evolving. He also nearly enslaves Veemon, but Yolei and Cody pull a last-minute rescue with their armor-digivolved partners Halsemon and Digmon. |

Kage's big plan to defeat the Cures in Pretty Cure All Stars New Stage 2 is derailed because Miyuki invited Mana and her friends to the Fairy Academy — his Great Big Book of Everything had nothing on the Doki-Doki team and thus couldn't exploit their Transformation Trinket weakness. | |
