Not in the Face!	comment	A character in a fight or facing punishment from a henchman does not want to be struck or injured in a certain manner. They could have a low pain tolerance in general, or they may be able to take other kinds of punishment, just not that specific punishment. In these cases, it isn't uncommon to hear a character desperately shout this Stock Phrase at their attacker. Usually the character gets hit in the face anyway. Often subverted when it turns out that the character's pleas were just Briar Patching all along. The character asking not to get hit in the face may be asking for professional reasons, if they make a living from their looks, as with a model, actor, or a member of The Oldest Profession. Alternatively, the request may be because the requestor is vain. Can involve, but doesn't demand, A Handful for an Eye, Boom, Headshot!, and if someone's being particularly vindictive, Facepalm of Doom. Compare Ow, My Body Part!, Oh God, with the Verbing!, Nobody Touches the Hair. Not to be confused with actually going inside the face.

Not in the Face! / int_10550610	comment	An episode of Happy Days sees the Fonz being forced to punch Richie in order to keep up his tough guy image (long story). He asks Richie where he wants to be punched, mentioning that a gut punch hurt more but a punch to the face would leave a bruise. Richie ends up convincing him not to hit him but as they leave the room, Richie hits his head on the door, prompting everyone to believe Fonz did it. This restores Fonz's tough-guy image but also leads to Richie earning the sympathy of every girl in town.

Not in the Face! / int_10e9182d	comment	On one episode of Tales from the Crypt which stars a pair of bandit lovers, the man is always paranoid about something happening to his visage. At the end of the episode you find out that the reason for this is that they are zombies, and therefore any bodily damage done to them will not be deadly but still leave a lasting mark. He gets shot in the face and, while still undead, is left looking like that for the rest of time.

Hank is unable to process what this means. Hank also displays this trope in one episode when he got a nose job after it was broken during football practice. He admires his new nose so much that he goes to great lengths to protect his face so that his new nose doesn't get damaged. After Hank and the gang make a golf course out of the alley, they invite Kahn to be a member. When Kahn answers the door to Hank holding a golf club, he automatically says "Oh please!

Even more amusing is the blasÃ© way the other newscasters agree to it, as though it was something so incredibly obvious. Judging from the Canadian newscaster's reaction of "What do we look like, rookies?" this is indeed the case. Of course just the fact that full-on brawls between different news organizations actually having ROE (Rules of Engagement) is hilarious in its own right.

Not in the Face! / int_8296168	comment	When Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake returned to wrestling in 1993, many of his matches had a stipulation that he couldn't be hit in the face. Justified in that he had (legitimately) destroyed his face in a parasailing accident and had to have screws inserted, and too much trauma would've destroyed his face again. It was only a matter of time where â€“ in Kayfabe, of course â€“ this would be averted â€¦ and it was, when Ted DiBiase interfered in Irwin R. Shyster's match against Beefcake and struck him head-on with a metal briefcase, this after Beefcake had Shyster ready for a free haircut.

Not in the Face! / int_d46beefd	comment	In Wild Wild West, Artemis Gordon is captured by the villain and (because he's secretly wearing a bulletproof vest) makes a last request to be shot in the heart that he used to love his country so much. The villain realizes what's going on and orders his men to shoot Artemis in the head.

Not in the Face! / int_ef661e97	comment	Vega of the various Street Fighter games. He goes so far as to wear a metal mask to protect his face from damage. In Vega's case, though, it has nothing to do with the pain of being hit: he just doesn't want his face damaged since he's a hopeless narcissist. In fact, in Street Fighter IV, you can have Vega toss away his mask intentionally because by exposing his face to damage, he knows it'll allow him to fight more aggressively and he'll do better damage as a result.
