Suppose you're in a hurry, or just leisurely came out of the bathroom. However, you feel a breeze in the most unusual area, and you can't help but notice people snickering and/or looking down at your crotch. Either you see for yourself what's so funny, or worse, someone tells the predicament to your face. The end result is zipping your open pants fly up while your face flushes, and probably mumbling something. This trope will mostly happen in comedies to male characters (sometimes to females as well), or when serious moments need to be lightened up a bit. Very Truth in Television. It can happen to anybody. Compare Wardrobe Malfunction and Comedic Underwear Exposure. |

An extra in the bleachers of Teen Wolf is caught on camera completely unzipped, hastily covering the calumny with a knit sweater. At first, it was speculated that this was a guy over-appreciating the young men on court; however, it was later revealed to be a woman who'd squeezed herself into too-tight slacks so as not to seem fat on set. This shot is a staple of Blooper reviews. | |

Red Ears: There's a comic that uses this gag when a man flirts with an attractive waitress who passes him several notes. It says that his "fondness" for her was apparent because his fly was open and asks him to zip it up. The second note adds when her shift ends. | |

Near the end of The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, SpongeBob brings up that there's something he must say when he is finally given the job as manager of the Krusty Krab 2 that he wanted, but states that he doesn't know how to put it. After Squidward suggests that SpongeBob is trying to say that he's realized he didn't really want the job after all, SpongeBob denies Squidward's assumption and explains that he was actually trying to tell Squidward that his fly was down, which is odd considering that Squidward never wore pants in the first place. | |

In Snuff, there's a scene at a dinner party where the narrator talks about how long-married couples tend to have code phrases to subtly warn each other about problems such as "exposed in the crotch department" or, in the case of Sam and Sybil Vimes, "You're getting on people's nerves again, Sam." The scene ends with one of the other ladies at the dinner turning to her husband and giving him the "exposed in the crotch department" code. | |

A common (albeit multiply-contradicting) story from the set of Bringing Up Baby is that Cary Grant's open fly was either broken or caught on someone's fabric, which led to the script being rewritten to include the gag of Katharine Hepburn's Wardrobe Malfunction and Cary Grant walking behind her to spare her embarrassment. | |

In Home Improvement, a late episode has Tim make a Badass Boast, only to undermine it since he was unzipped. Referenced in another episode, when Randy worries that he's The Unfavorite since Brad and Tim share interests in things like sports and tools. Tim assures him they're not that different and have similar personalities, with the example that if either one is caught with a fly down, they're not going to miss a chance to make a quip about it. |

One chapter in Yandere Kanojo is dedicated purely for this. Reina notices Tanaka's zipper is open, but she's too embarrassed to tell him directly. So she asks one of her friends to text him about it. Needless to say, that friend tells another friend to do it... and so on. The chapter ends with pretty much everyone knowing Tanaka's fly is open. | |
