This trope is when a character goes without clothing to demonstrate that they have nothing to hide or prove something from those around them and are not a threat. There are a few reasons why someone might do this. The character in question could be trying to earn someone's trust. For example, there's an old concept from Japan's onsen tradition called hadaka no tsukiai (lit. "naked communication") which believes removing the complexities of social standing through nudity allows people to break down barriers and be truer to themselves and each other. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Perhaps the heroes are facing infiltration attempts from inhuman beings, or maybe just members of the opposite sex into a single-sex setting, and they respond by going about their business naked so the infiltrators will be unable to hide their true nature. Sometimes characters deliberately meet in locations where they have to take off their clothes, such as massage parlors or saunas to prove they don't have any Hidden Wire or Hidden Weapons. This could be something that is forced on others by some paranoid villain who has imprisoned and/or enslaved them and wants to make sure they have nowhere to conceal anything they could use to escape or revolt. This trope may lead to a Full-Frontal Assault if the character is forced to defend himself or the character invoking it is being dishonest and just used this trope to make themselves look less threatening, and then using the opportunity to attack. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Compare Shameless Fanservice Girl, whose rejection of nudity taboos could be motivated by this reasoning; Shirtless Captives and Go-Go Enslavement, where this could be one possible motivation (though those tropes rarely go to the extreme of full nudity). If a character is forcing others to do it, it's usually via a Shameful Strip. See also, Out-of-Clothes Experience and A Spy at the Spa. Examples: |

Interestingly inverted in the first appearance of Irene Adler in Sherlock, where she meets Sherlock while totally nude. This foils Sherlock's Sherlock Scan, as he's used to discerning lots of tiny details from a person's clothing and accessories, and he therefore can't immediately deduce Adler's motives, history, or weaknesses. | |

Science-Fiction 101: Enforced in Philip K Dick's short story Colony. The astronauts of the story encounter deadly organisms that can disguise themselves as inorganic objects, leading to crewmembers seemingly strangled by towels, choked by gloves, or bludgeoned by medicine cabinets. When the officers realize what's going on, they order the entire crew to evacuate the ship naked to be sure nobody brings a parasite with them. | |

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc: At the beginning of the second chapter, the player can find Owada in the newly-opened bathhouse looking for the missing Togami, where it's revealed that Owada believes in hadaka no tsukiai, and suggests he and Naegi test out the bath later with that as the reason. Also, a Free-Time Event with Ishimaru reveals he subscribes to the same thinking, innocuously suggesting he and Naegi bare themselves to each other to in order to deepen their bond as fellow students. Both cases only serve to embarrass Naegi considerably. Notably, Owada and Ishimaru would eventually form an Odd Friendship after an endurance contest in the sauna. | |

Not Another Teen Movie has a character named "Areola" who is a foreign exchange studentnote She was a parody of Nadia, Shannon Elizabeth's character in American Pie that also serves as some weird hybrid of Innocent Fanservice Girl and Ms. Fanservice in that she wears nothing at all (and her backpack is even see-thru), much to the chagrin and excitement of all the other characters, but the directors commentary proves she fits under this trope when it was stated that she was meant to be that way as some kind of metaphor for having, "nothing to hide about herself". | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Jaime Lannister, after over 14 years of keeping it to himself, confesses the reason for his Bodyguard Betrayal to Brienne of Tarth when they're bathing together at Harrenhal. This is a major turning point in Jaime and Brienne's relationship, at which point they start to become closer emotionally. A darker version of this in the Song is the Bolton's observation that while a naked man has few secrets, a flayed man has none. |

Invoked in one episode of Digimon Adventure 02 where Deputymon strips off articles of his clothing to show the Digidestined that he's not wearing a Dark Ring and isn't a servant of the Digimon Emperor. Unfortunately, he gets carried away and takes off all his clothes. Upon realizing his mistake, he quickly puts his things back. | |

NYPD Blue: One case had the detectives completely baffled for almost the entire show. A group of people were brutally murdered in a warehouse, and they were all completely naked, with their clothes neatly folded over in a corner of the room. The detectives kept coming up with increasingly bizarre theories (orgies, etc), until one of the suspects informed them that the group was packing drugs and money for a local gang, and they were naked because "No pockets means they can't steal anything". The detectives shrug and accept the explanation. | |

In sci-fi novel The Puppet Masters, Puppeteer Parasite aliens invade Earth. They attach themselves to the bodies of humans, extend tendrils into the brain, and make humans their slaves. They are demonstrated to enslave humans by attaching anywhere to the human body, although the back is their preferred attachment point. In response, humans who are not ridden by parasites tend to go around semi-nude near the middle of the book or fully nude near the end of the book in order to show that they are not enslaved. | |

In Kill la Kill, Nudist Beach wears just enough in the way of belts and pouches to cover the necessary parts, to avoid wearing clothes containing life fibers. | |

In Haru Natsu Aki Fuyu, Natsuki strips topless in front of Fuyuka to let her feel her heartbeat and to demonstrate that, Natsuki's Memetic Molester tendencies aside, Fuyuka has nothing to fear from her. It works, and the two of them enter a relationship by the next chapter. | |

The Red Vixen Adventures: At the climax of Shadow of Her Sins, Ali is forced to strip naked and confess to Salli that she murdered children as Bloody Margo's child soldier. To a less fraught extent, Noble Caste foxen often strip naked while conducting public ceremonies, to demonstrate their honesty and piety to the lower castes. |

In The Heir Chronicles it is suggested that the wizards meet naked, to make it impossible for anyone to hide magical weapons on their person. | |

One of the many excuses used to strip slave girls naked in the Gor novels. There's an occasional narrative explanation to the effect that nudity both makes it more difficult for a slave to conceal physical objects and also makes it more difficult for a slave to lie. In a variant, it's also frequently pointed out that slave girls are customarily sold naked in order to enforce the honesty of the dealer. | |

Burn Notice: In "Hard Bargain", Michael poses as a hostage negotiator trying to rescue a kidnapped girl. The leader of the kidnapping ring, Reyes, meets him in a massage parlor, which Michael tells him is smart, because it means Reyes knows Michael isn't wearing a wire (or anything besides a towel, for that matter). | |
