Vomiting Cop | comment |
A trope specific to murder mysteries, invoked to suggest that the crime is so gruesome (sight and/or smell) that it turns the stomachs of even hardened investigators. Alternately, the Vomiting Cop is a rookie on their first case, or it is used to show how seasoned and jaded the veteran cop is. There are some variations: Finding the corpse: an unpleasant set of remains is found by the characters. One of them runs around the corner or sticks their head out of shot and throws up. Arrival at the scene: the detectives show up. We see one of the police officers (an extra) throwing up in the bushes. At the morgue, during the autopsy of a murder victim, a less-experienced cop may vomit when the body is cut open. More rarely, the cop has visible (and sometimes audible) nausea but not to the point of vomiting. Catharsis: The officer was actually present during or shortly before the murder - perhaps as a witness to the crime - and now that the tension has died down sufficiently, can't hold back their stomach any longer. While definitely not a Discredited Trope (mainly because it happens a lot in Real Life), it is almost as often used in parody as straight. Sometimes a Vomit Indiscretion Shot, but usually a Vomit Discretion Shot. Very often used as a variant on Gory Discretion Shot, where the gory stuff has been done but the evidence remains. See also Selective Squeamishness Suppression, Take Our Word for It. Contrast Autopsy Snack Time, Nausea Dissonance. Stress Vomit is the Super-Trope to this one. |

Dirty Harry: Averted in Sudden Impact, where Harry Callahan's pet peeve isn't eating around dead bodies or crime scenes. It's putting ketchup on the hot dog you're eating around dead bodies or crime scenes. Played straight in The Enforcer when the autopsy surgeon removes the subject's brain. Harry is unaffected but his rookie female partner is clearly looking queasy. A joke by the surgeon sends her over the edge: Also shown in Magnum Force. Harry is called to the scene of a murder with his new partner. One of the cops there comments on how the inside the victim's car is just filled with all kinds of brain parts (the audience doesn't see this) and generally goes into the most gross bodies he's seen. Harry is unaffected but his partner looks at the body and then turns to go puke. |

In the first episode of the series, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit had Benson vomiting in some bushes after interviewing a particularly brutalized rape victim. A few seasons later, a couple cops start throwing up after entering the house full of dead cult children. Elliot spent much of one episode sick as a dog because he's on anti-AIDS medication (after being exposed in the previous episode). In another episode, a beat cop claims, "14 years on the job and it's the first time I threw up", upon discovering an especially butchered victim. Not surprising since the killer was being compared to Jack the Ripper. |

Fell: Somewhat subverted, in that it's not at a crime scene. Fell threw up when the insane Medical Examiner dropped a piece of organic tomato into a victim during the autopsy, took it out and ate it despite Fell's repeated assertions that he would shoot him if he did so. The Coroner just replies that it was organic and he'd have to go out of the city to get another one. | |

Used in the Season One finale of Shadow Unit, in which the ever-impeturbable Nikki Lau vomits outside the old Villette house after Chaz is evacuated. Subverted somewhat as her reaction is not just about the awfulness of what's been done in the house (and the mess it's made), but the fact that it was done to and by a colleague and friend. | |

Connor on Angel vomited at one crime scene where an entire family had been brutally murdered for being unknowing Living MacGuffins. It's not the gore - Connor grew up in a demon dimension and takes his daughter being a rotted, maggot-infested corpse without qualm, but the realization that they were a family, which he has massive unresolved issues with. | |

In the first A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) film, one of the police officers investigating yet another victim of Freddy's rampage became a Vomiting Cop. This is expanded on in a deleted scene, although part of the scene is in the regular version. Although not shown, dialogue between two on-scene cops reveals that the coroner is also puking in the bathroom. |

A variant on Chuck: In the pilot episode, Chuck disarms a bomb controlled by a computer by using a virus transmitted through internet porn to kill the laptop, effectively defusing the bomb. Chuck is actually quite calm and collected throughout the entire scene...until he realizes what could have happened if he had been wrong. Then Chuck turns green. | |

Dexter: Harry, a hardened cop and a legend of his force, walks in on Dexter killing a murderer that kept getting away. He proudly trained him; however, seeing and realizing what he's created, Harry is violently sick. Season 5: Cira Manzon, a young Hispanic officer, vomits after she sees one of the Santa Muerte murders. This is the rookie variant of the trope. |

Parodied in The Simpsons: In "Worst Episode Ever", a squad of cops breaks in on Comic Book Guy and Mrs. Skinner naked in bed. Eddie promptly throws up, and Lou reassures him, "It's okay. If it doesn't affect you, you're not human." In "Helter Shelter", the Simpsons watch a fictional Law & Order Spin-Off about an elevator inspectors unit. Two cops, guns drawn, enter an empty elevator. One of them discovers the button for the fifth floor doesn't light up. The other says, "I think I'm gonna be sick." |

In Dead Right, an amateur movie that Edgar Wright made when he was younger that features on the Hot Fuzz DVD, Barry Stern's newbie partner vomits slightly into his hand when they find the body of a woman who had recently been murdered. On the Alternate DVD Commentary (slightly different from the usual examples in that it is included on the DVD itself) with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost essentially lambasting the movie at every step of the way, Pegg mocks the vomit effect as looking as though the actor simply spat out "a chewed up Texan bar". | |

Among Reddit users, the infamous story of the Swamps of Dagobah has become legendary. One night, an OR nurse and their team were operating on a morbidly obese, drug-addicted woman with a perirectal abscess. When the surgeon opened her perineum with a scalpel, a gigantic torrent of pus, blood, rotten tissue, and fecal matter exploded out of her nether regions. Both nurses and the anesthesiologist ran vomiting out of the room. The unfortunate OR nurse ran for the bottle of peppermint oil,note which doctors rub on the inside of their masks to cover bad smells found it completely empty, and had to resort to huffing Mastisol (a liquid adhesive) to keep from throwing up in their mask while they finished the surgery. Afterwards, the surgeon and nurse had to take baths with four or five bottles' worth of 70% isopropyl alcohol just to get the smell out of their skins. ("It's probably the only scenario I can honestly endorse drinking a little of it, too.") | |

When they see the body, Peter pukes; Fred didn't give him the mint because he knew that would happen and he would've just wasted it. This is a case where anyone would have done the same, though - the woman was missing her eyes, her nose, her upper lip... | |

Rick and Morty spoofs this when Rick brutally fights back against Revolio Clockberg Jr. after the latter turns on the former, replacing his mouth gears with the gears from his groin. When two Gearhead cops burst in and see what Rick had done to Revolio, they vomit oil and cogs. | |

In the later novel Gerald's Game, Norris again throws up, when he finds what is in the truck of Raymond Andrew Joubert, a necrophiliac cannibal (for example, a sandwich with a human tongue) but he manages to get out of the truck just in time. A character says that "the State Police would have torn him a new asshole if he'd puked on the evidence. On the other hand, I'd have wanted him removed from his job for psychological reasons if he hadn't thrown up." | |

A whole roomful of cops nearly succumbed to this trope on The Closer, when an ice cooler containing a folded-up human corpse was opened in the middle of Brenda's office. Justified even for the most hardened veterans, given how long the body had been decomposing in a tiny airtight space. Hilariously averted by Lieutenant Provenza, who while everyone else is dashing out the door, grumbles about finding someone to clean up the mess. Also done in the episode "Head Over Heels," where Brenda and a colleague are interrupted at a diner when the mutilated body of a victim is discovered in a nearby dumpster. While discussing what they've found, Brenda eventually succumbs to her disgust and turns away to vomit. Justified in that they having breakfast only shortly before. |

The "rookie cop" variation is used near the beginning of Persona 4. It's more or less his handiwork he is vomiting at. And it was probably just shock due to him not having known until then that his victim would die due to his actions. Although it's just as likely that he was faking it, or at least exaggerating, to throw suspicions off him. EEW! DEAD BODIES! EEW, EEW, EEEW!! |

Ciel Phantomhive of Black Butler fame does this not once, but twice in the manga. First time was in reaction to witnessing the death throes of Mary Jane Kelly, which happens both in the anime and manga. The second one was manga only: he vomits in reaction to his Stalker with a Crush rebuilding a sacrificial chamber, the very one Ciel almost died in pre-series. Combining the mental trauma with the brutal murder of children younger than he is a few chapters before likely did it. Justified since Ciel is only thirteen years old and is not technically a cop, though he does investigate on the Queen's orders. | |

In Robert B. Parker's Spenser novels, the title gumshoe sometimes throws up — not because of what he sees, but what he does. Specifically, though Spenser's a fan of resolving problems through fisticuffs, he's not a fan of killing. In at least two books (Mortal Stakes and A Catskill Eagle) he loses his lunch after killing someone. In the first case it was arguably self-defense (he knew the victims were trying to set him up to be murdered, and simply acted more quickly than they did); in the second case it was outright murder (done to protect a pair of prostitutes he had put in peril of their lives). By his lights both were morally justified, but he still wasn't easy about it. | |

Used on Rizzoli & Isles, this is a Running Gag where Frost is concerned, as he frequently loses it at many, many crime scenes and autopsies. He even faints once. Jane's brother Frankie also has a weak stomach, but not to the degree of Frost, once being involved in a Vomit Chain Reaction. Jane had it happen to her once, although in that case, she was also suffering from morning sickness. | |

Twice subverted on Monk: In "Mr. Monk and the Foreign Man," the characters are covering their mouth due to the stench of a corpse that has been decaying in a house for two weeks. Except for Randy, who tries to act indifferent to the stench to impress a CSI tech. In "Mr. Monk Is the Best Man," a cop can be seen dry-heaving when facing the sight of a dead man who had been shot once and then burned. |

In Animorphs, this is a common occurance and often the outcome of watching the Taxxons eat, though the kids have other reasons to do this. Gets Lampshaded when Jake gets sick from a virus and not a mission sight. While carrying him home, Marco points out that he long ago realized there are a lot of UnusualEuphemisms he used to describe throwing up and now that there was nothing gross from Animorphs work that sparked the vomit session, he could bring this topic up. He, Cassie, and Jake (who is still queasy mind you) begin to list all the various terms they heard in the past and have a good laugh at it until Marco gives us "A yawn in Technocolor" which seems to be the one that causes Jake to vomit again. | |

Averted by Deena Pilgrim of Powers; she's slipped and fallen into blood and brains and the only thing she did was curse out the cop who didn't tape off the crime scene, and even the worst murder scene she's ever been to, all she did was step outside. But anytime that she's been teleported (or even just near someone who's teleporting), she pukes. | |

Also shown in Magnum Force. Harry is called to the scene of a murder with his new partner. One of the cops there comments on how the inside the victim's car is just filled with all kinds of brain parts (the audience doesn't see this) and generally goes into the most gross bodies he's seen. Harry is unaffected but his partner looks at the body and then turns to go puke. | |

According to Shelley herself, the murders she and her squad witness on a daily basis are so grisly that most of her officers insist on being transferred away, meaning that she always ends up having to look after a fresh round of queasy recruits. | |

Parodied in an infamous Saturday Night Live sketch: the sight of a murder victim provoked a rookie cop to throw up; the sight of the Vomiting Cop churned other characters' stomachs and they threw up, causing everyone who saw that to throw up, making even more witnesses throw up - it was implied at the end of the sketch that all of New York City was vomiting. Notable cock-up: Chris Elliot's vomit tube didn't deploy right away, causing him to ad-lib a line about dry heaving. It then deployed while he was distracted. One of the cops was 8 months pregnant, and at the end, Chris Farley, who was running the spinning newspaper gag, started to puke after watching it spin too much. |

In Disco Elysium, the Player Character will vomit upon first finding the body of the victim whose murder you're investigating, unless you pass a very difficult test. Unlike most examples it's not because he is a rookie, but because the corpse in question has been decomposing for a week and he is suffering from a truly titanic hangover. Even his normally extremely stoic partner, Kim, barely manages to hold on. | |

Several times in Without a Trace: In "Suspect", one agent does this, paired with Vomit Indiscretion Shot after forcing himself to act like he admires a pedophile so that the guy will admit where he stashed the Victim of the Week. In "Bait", the Vomiting Cop (in fact a vomiting Coast Guardsman) was actually involved in the case - as an accessory. In "A Tree Falls", an agent does this upon finding a missing child alive, but horribly mutilated. In yet another episode, the same agent gets ill in another episode, due to being in withdrawal from painkillers, though he tries to play it off as not feeling well. |

The 'Crunchy Frog' sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus, where mentions of chocolates such as Cockroach Cluster, Anthrax Ripple, and Rams Bladder Cup causes one of the Hygiene Squad (who actually ate some of the candies in question) to throw up. In the Hollywood Bowl live performance, the unfortunate Hygiene Squad inspector can't rush out of the room but instead eventually vomits into his helmet - to which his superior gives a glare, causing him to put the helmet back on his head. (SFX material: beef stew.) In an audio recording of a live performance, an announcer notes that the constable's reaction is "the longest continuous vomit on stage since John Barrymore puked over the corpse of Laertes during a performance of Hamlet in 1941." |

This happens to the cop of the week a few times on Criminal Minds. "No Way Out" has a particularly brutal scene, a where the sheriff remarks that the vomiter had driven sixty miles to get to the crime scene, threw up in the bushes, and was about to be sent home. She's rather scornful, as he isn't even from her department, meaning he drove to another jurisdiction just to see a dead body and promptly threw up. Possibly invoked by Prentiss in one episode. The corpse is an old friend of hers who she sent to the apartment where she was killed in the first place, making it justified that she might lose her lunch. However, she then uses going home to change her pants and shoes as an excuse to grab her insurance policy against Ian Doyle and go rogue, implying that she might have done it on purpose. |

Jedi Academy Trilogy: In I, Jedi it's shown to take a lot to rattle Corran Horn (a former cop, turned pilot, turned Jedi). Even witnessing the grisly remains of one of Luke's other students doesn't disturb him that much, as he is able to point out a few key facts to Luke about the body. What does it take for Corran to lose his lunch? A vision in the Force of the destruction of Carida—seeing the aftermath of a grisly death is one thing; seeing many such grisly deaths happen before you is another thing entirely. If that sort of thing was what Obi-Wan Kenobi sensed as the Falcon neared Alderaan, he had quite the stomach. | |

He didn't throw up, but came pretty close. The experienced members of the squad just watch the video feed, but most of them could also turn off their sense of smell if they wanted to. | |

Played with in the Rivers of London novel Broken Homes, in which Peter retreats from a body-dump site with his hand clamped over his mouth and other officers nod sympathetically, assuming it's this trope. It's not — he's holding back giggles after resisting the urge to make a tasteless crack about zombies — but he opts to let the other police think it is. | |

A cop in King's short story The Mangler throws up on the job for the first time in his fourteen years as a policeman after seeing the remains of one particularly grisly death, where the poor individual had been run through the titular machine and was hardly recognizable as human anymore. | |

The Night Of: We see one of the young arresting officers flee the gruesome crime scene and dry heave in the street. Various cops mock him through the next few episodes, and he usually protests that he was only gagging, not puking. The trope is then deliberately exploited by the lead detective: when the cop in question asks to leave the detail out of his report, he's told to leave it in, because it humanises him as a witness and thus helps the prosecution's case. | |

Breaking Bad: Hank is appalled at the sight of Tortuga's decapitated head placed on top of a turtle in Juarez by the local drug cartel and leaves the scene to throw up (he mutters something about getting an evidence bag). The El Paso agents mock him relentlessly, but he survives unscathed when the head explodes, killing several agents and severely wounding others. Deconstructed, as Hank's reaction seems to be a panic attack, and his resulting feelings of weakness and Survivor Guilt plague him for the rest of the series. | |

Quincy, M.E.: The opening titles include a variation in which five police observers are watching an (off-screen) autopsy performed by the title character; as the titles progress they turn away from it one by one, each with an obvious need to vomit and/or faint (again, off-screen). In "Go Fight City Hall...To the Death!" (the episode from which the sequence comes), it turns out Quincy is doing it to these observers on purpose so he can get out of doing the demonstration and get back to his cases. | |

Narrowly averted in one episode of Hill Street Blues when the precinct's detectives are confronted with a nun who was raped and brutally beaten when she disturbed a couple of burglars. The normally unflappable Captain Frank Furillo (who was raised Catholic) attends in person, and is clearly badly shaken by what he learns from the detectives on scene. The impact isn't limited to the immediate afthermath either, as the story arc following this case involves normally By-the-Book Cop Frank resorting to some rather questionable tactics to find the perpetrators and get them off the street. |
