We Need a Distraction	comment	The user of this trope needs a distraction, often in order to infiltrate the enemy's lair, a secret organization, to enable an escape, etc. Pyrotechnics are not uncommon. Specific variants include: Conveniently Timed Distraction: Someone or something that unintentionally creates a distraction that occurs at a crucial moment that a character takes advantage of. Defiant Stone Throw (when done to distract a villain from harming the hero) Delicious Distraction: Food as a way to divert attention. Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?: Taunting an enemy even though you know they're much more powerful than you. Ding-Dong-Ditch Distraction Distract and Disarm: While held at gunpoint, a character or their ally distracts the gunman and disarms them. Distracting Fake Fight Distracted by the Sexy Escort Distraction: One person takes a second one elsewhere as a distraction, usually for a third person's plans. Fake Faint Fire Alarm Distraction Go Fetch: Distracting an Angry Guard Dog with fetch. The Guards Must Be Crazy Holding the Floor: Character has to talk a lot to stall for time. Honey Trap Look Behind You Privacy by Distraction: Making up something (usually a fool's errand) for an unwanted third party to go somewhere else. Pushed at the Monster (Deliberately invoked by another with often fatal results) Show Some Leg (when deliberately invoked by a character) Throwing the Distraction: Need a distraction? Throw a small object. Often the job for the Hero Secret Service. Infraction Distraction sometimes falls under this but usually just dissuades the enemy from searching further. Is sometimes part of a Xanatos Gambit. See also Right Under Their Noses, Trojan Prisoner Ploy, Why Are You Looking at Me Like That?. Contrast Hidden in Plain Sight. Compare The Bait, Draw Aggro. Contrast Deus ex 'Scuse Me, where the plot gods distract the character.

While Storming the Castle Wesley sends some rebels to launch a fake attack which, it's pointed out, they won't survive. In "Blind Date", Angel has to infiltrate an Occult Law Firm whose security includes beings who can sense the presence of vampires. So Gunn walks into the lobby and gives an Angry Black Man rant, culminating with him releasing a Bound and Gagged vampire into the lobby, while Angel enters elsewhere at the same time.

Response: "It's Bart!" "And he's doing stuff!" Skinner even went on to say "Bart! Stop creating a diversion and get out of here!" The episode "Bart the Fink" also has one with Superintendant Chalmers and Agnes Skinner returning home, and see Principal Skinner answer the door. After noticing the two of them together: In "Mother Simpson", Abe Simpson does this on his own initiative when the FBI raids the house to arrest Homer's long-lost mother. No one is totally sure if it was a distraction or senility, least of all Abe himself.

So he walks straight up to them, claiming to be another mercenary working for HYDRA, like them, (he is a mercenary, just one loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D.) and offers them beers. While Scarlotti and his team don't buy Hunter's claim for a second, he keeps them confused long enough for May and Bobbi to catch the villains off guard.

Chewie very grudgingly complies. In order for the Millennium Falcon to land on the planet Seymarti without the Star Destroyer in orbit shooting it down, Luke and his Red Wave squadron of X-wings engage the Star Destroyer in battle while the Falcon sneaks past on minimal power. Afterward, the X-wings conduct an airstrike on the Imperial ground troops so Han's party can get past them, again.

Then-Commissioner Bert Bell used the announcement of the founding of the American Football League as a shield. ("See? We don't have to expand! There's eight new teams right there!"). They expanded to Minneapolis and Dallas the next year anyway (plus moving the Chicago Cardinals to St. Louis), in an attempt to undermine the AFL.

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the Weasley twins are more than happy to provide Harry with a distraction so that he can break into Umbridge's office when Ginny tells them he wants to talk to Sirius. They do so by turning an entire hall into a swamp in a bit of magic Flitwick is so impressed by that he refuses to remove the entire thing and ropes off a bit to preserve as a permanent installation in the castle.

We Need a Distraction / int_3eb3a36f	comment	Assassination Classroom: Phase 1 of Class 3-E's revenge plot against the students who bullied Maehara: Nagisa and Kayano, disguised as an elderly couple, distract the bullies at a cafe while Hayami and Chiba sneak homemade laxatives into their drinks. When it seems like Koro-sensei is about to discover Kataoka's plan to assassinate him in the water, Nagisa steps in to take advantage of his weaknesses ("he's very worried about appearances") by taunting him about some fan-letters to a big-breasted actress he found on Koro-sensei's desk. The "Assassination Island" arc employed this trope several times. Makes sense, since they need to advance quietly to their goal on the top floor of a hotel. Irina uses her feminine wiles to distract a group of guards to buy time for her students; Kimura insults two guards to make them chase him.

The distraction can range from people's clothes vanishing into thin air to dangerous wild animals appearing from out of nowhere (from a pack of komodo dragons to a bull shark). It also works on proxy observers: when used to "distract" a security camera, the camera's monitoring computer suffered a fatal error that caused the security feed data to become irreparably corrupted.

To decide Earth's champion, the titular characters are forced to face each other in a planet orbiting a red sun to take away Superman's powers and make it fair. They are given only 24 hours to train, but Superman takes himself and Ali to a pocket dimension where time passes more slowly. When the alien emperor Rat'Lar finds out about Superman's trick to extend his training time, he sends three robots to retrieve them whether they like or not. Superman is under the debilitating effects of a red sunlight generator, so Ali runs among the legs of one robot and causes him to trip so that Superman can shut off the generator and get his powers back.

They twice encounter warriors who demonstrate their prowess by breaking wood with their hands and cutting falling silk with their swords. Each time, a Horde member prepares to do the same, and then attacks the distracted opponent. (Then he breaks the block of wood over the ninja's head, so technically he did break it himself...) In The Truth, William De Worde wants to get past a few Watchmen, and has his photographer/vampire provide the distraction by taking a picture. As a vampire, the flash is enough to send him into excruciating pain, and William notes that a vampire writhing and screaming on the ground is always the center of attention. The second book in the series, The Light Fantastic, has Cohen, an eighty three-year old barbarian hero, tell an enemy that they're holding their sword wrong. He then proceeds to demonstrate that you're supposed to use distractions to put a sword in your enemy's leg.

We Need a Distraction / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: During the climax of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), Starlord starts dancing to his mix tape to distract Ronan the Accuser, buying Rocket Raccoon enough time to fix his BFG. Ronan is so (understandably) confused by this that it actually works. Captain America: Civil War: Hawkeye causes an explosion outside of the Avengers compound in order to distract Vision. While the android goes investigating, Clint sneaks inside to join with Wanda and set up a trap for Vision (who comes back sooner than expected). Likewise, in Avengers: Infinity War, Ned provides a distraction for Peter by screaming that everyone was going to die. Notable in that Ned was not part of a plan: he just had a Freak Out when he saw that aliens had returned to New York. In Avengers: Endgame, Tony pulls this on Alexander Pierce and various unnamed HYDRA agents that were trying to stop his past self from leaving with the metal briefcase containing the Tesseract cube which eventually ends up in the hands of Tony from the year 2023 before Hulk knocks him out, causing the Tesseract to fly out of the briefcase and end up near Loki's feet allowing the trickster god to grab it and make his getaway while Thor, the HYDRA agents, and Alexander Pierce are too distracted to notice he escaped.

It's later revealed in Act III chapter 46 that during the attack, they remained on the outskirts of the town without really engaging in a fight, and Issa's guards took them out with little trouble; as it turns out, the attack was nothing more than a diversion so Akua and Kahlua, who had joined Fairy Tale right under Issa's nose, could break into Issa's secret archive and steal the forbidden Chrono Displacement spell for Kiria's Evil Plan without interference. In Act III, it's also revealed that Hokuto, playing the role of a Big Bad Friend, orchestrated Kuyou's return to Yokai Academy to serve as a distraction, allowing him to steal an Artifact of Doom from the academy unhindered while Tsukune and the others were occupied with taking Kuyou down.

Distractions range from teammates turning up the cuteness, pretending to be drunk customers, recruiting the guards as possible Spectre candidates, standing in as food inspectors, berating the guards for being terrible at guarding, asking about a volus brothel upstairs, ranting about inhumane treatment of varren, pretending to cry, or in Javik's case, insulting their entire species, declaring that everyone in the building would be killed in his cycle because games of chance were illegal, or telling them that he is a Prothean, and demanding to know what they think of that. Another example was during the Tuchanka arc, where's the team needs to distract a Reaper in order to release the Genophage cure. That distraction comes in the form of Kalros, the biggest Thresher Maw in the galaxy's history. It turns out far better than expected; Kalros doesn't just distract the Reaper, she kills it.

In this case, to disperse the protesters, the cabinet gets a debate show to discuss the threat of a meteor strike on Ukraine. It works. The culture minister once attempted to use the meteor strike story when a wreath fell on Viktor Yanukovych. Apparently, the cabinet went with a "cheap fishing line that got people talking for a year". Meanwhile, the education minister proposed a bird flu epidemic as the distraction, though Yuriy himself preferred the meteor story instead. Also invoked by Vasiliy in The Movie - while he and Yuriy are busy attempting to cause an Enemy Civil War among the oligarchs, he instructs Mukhin to buy as much time as possible. Mukhin and Oksana do this by exploiting a traditional Ukrainian ceremonynote which they may have made up to get the IMF head drunk. On a nightly basis. Whenever he asks an uncomfortable question, like "where is the president?", Mukhin claps his hands, the musicians start playing, and out come the drinks.

We Need a Distraction / int_8df5521b	comment	Superman: For money Prankster will distract police and Superman with his pranks so his clients can do their own crimes without any problems. In "War World", Superman keeps the eponymous satellite's weapon systems distracted and focused on him while Supergirl gets ready to attack. Occurs in "Public Enemies": In "Superman vs. Shazam!", Supergirl and Mary Marvel are deliberating how to attack Karmang's castle, when Supergirl's X-Ray Vision tells her Karmang has become so engrossed in the furious battle between Superman and Captain Marvel he has overlooked her and Mary as they tracked his agents down and headed towards his lair. Quickly, Mary Marvel asks the Wizard Shazam to tell Billy to prolong his battle with Superman as she and Kara storm Karmang's castle by surprise. "The Day the Cheering Stopped": Superman waves his mysterious, mystical sword in front of King Kosmos until it has completely drawn his attention, whereupon he punches the villain. In "Superman vs. Muhammad Ali": An alien race offers to pit their greatest champion against Earth's, winner take all. To decide Earth's champion, the titular characters are forced to face each other in a planet orbiting a red sun to take away Superman's powers and make it fair. They are given only 24 hours to train, but Superman takes himself and Ali to a pocket dimension where time passes more slowly. When the alien emperor Rat'Lar finds out about Superman's trick to extend his training time, he sends three robots to retrieve them whether they like or not. Superman is under the debilitating effects of a red sunlight generator, so Ali runs among the legs of one robot and causes him to trip so that Superman can shut off the generator and get his powers back. "From Eterniaâ€” With Death!": While struggling against Skeletor's mind-control spell, Superman comes up with the idea of heating-visioning and freezing the ground under Skeletor's feet. The shock of seeing the ground melting under his feet and then freezing around his body is enough to break Skeletor's focus, allowing Superman to break free from his spell. In Masters of the Universe crossover "Fate Is The Killer", since the twin half of the Power Sword is hidden away in Earth, Skeletor summons a huge sea monster to keep Superman busy and distracted while he makes off with the blade.

In VISSER, Visser One asks the Animorphs for help disrupting her trial. Turns out a few apex predators bursting into the room is a good distraction. A much darker example in the penultimate book, where Jake flushes 17,000 unhosted Yeerks into space. He and the other Animorphs try to justify it by saying they needed a distraction, but it was really just an expression of raw revenge for everything the Yeerks and the war had taken from them. They also used the Auxiliary Animorphs and the U.S. military as Team Cannon Fodder.

We Need a Distraction / int_998cbda3	comment	Daredevil (2015): Wilson Fisk is fond of schemes that hinge on people being distracted. When he kills Anatoly in season 1, he plants evidence to ensure Anatoly's brother Vladimir will think Matt is responsible for it. By pitting Matt against the Russians, Fisk ensures both parties are occupied while he makes plans to eliminate the Russians by blowing up their bases of operations. In season 3, Fisk scapegoats Matt as an "accomplice" so that Ray Nadeem and his FBI colleagues will be preoccupied while Fisk is busy laying the final touches on his plans to corrupt Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter. When Matt and Nadeem figure out that Dex is the fake Daredevil that Fisk has used for his attack on the Bulletin, they break into Dex's apartment, with the intention that if they find any incriminating evidence, they'll pull the fire alarm so as to circumvent the need for a search warrant (so that Fisk won't have time to cover his tracks). But since Dex is currently suspended from work (as a result of Fisk's manipulations), they need him out of his apartment, so they arrange for a lawyer to meet Dex at the FBI offices on the pretense of helping him appeal his suspension. Unfortunately, Dex figures out the ruse and comes home early, forcing Matt and Nadeem to flee via a fire escape. Matt is unscathed, but Nadeem gets shot in the chest as Dex opens fire on them.

In Movie 9, Chopper does a similar thing to Sanji while they're fighting Wapol, Chess, and Kuromarimo, even saying the same dialogue to trick him. Arabasta: Sanji successfully lures Crocodile out of his base, allowing him to sneak in and rescue his captured crewmates (and Smoker). Mr. 2 helps the Straw Hats evade the Marines by disguising himself and his men as the Straw Hats, distracting Hina long enough that the real Straw Hats escape Arabasta unimpeded. In Punk Hazard, Law has Franky burn the remains of Smoker's ship so that it creates a smokescreen. Once they are blocked from Caesar's surveillance, he enacts his plan to escape the cage they're trapped in, with Caesar only catching on to the deception when his men warn him that all of his enemies have already infiltrated his base. A few examples take place in Dressrosa: Doflamingo lures Luffy into a trap by making Ace's Mera Mera no Mi the main prize of a fighting tournament in the Corrida Colosseum. Because he's already qualified for the final round, he can't leave the building to rescue Law without drawing attention to his absence, but he's also very reluctant to let just anyone take his brother's Devil Fruit. So what does he do? Take a Third Option thanks to Spanner in the Works Sabo, who solves both problems by switching places with Luffy since he is about the only person in Dressrosa outside the Straw Hats who has Luffy's absolute trust. When Doflamingo is notified that Luffy is rampaging in his palace, he can only furiously ask just who the hell is fighting in his place. Operation SOP involves trying to make Sugar pass out, which quickly proves to be impossible as long as Trebol is guarding her. So Robin and half of the dwarves head outside the tower where Sugar is hiding and cause a commotion to force Trebol to step outside to handle it. Gyats decides to taunt and mock Doflamingo in order to buy Luffy enough time to recover his Hour of Power, knowing damn well he might not live to get away with it. He indeed gets impaled for his trouble, but survives and stays awake long enough to triumphantly announce to the entire country that Luffy is back in the fight. Whole Cake Island: Luffy loudly crashes Sanji and Pudding's wedding with an army of doppelgangers created using a captive BrÃ»lÃ©e's ability, before just as loudly announcing he's the real one when Big Mom asks. This causes the Big Mom Pirates to ignore the doppelgangers, creating the perfect distraction for Brook (who's wearing a Paper-Thin Disguise) to sneak in and destroy Mother Carmel's picture. When Big Mom undergoes another of her hunger-fueled rampages, Perospero makes up a lie that the Straw Hats haven stolen a spare wedding cake. She buys it and starts pursuing the fleeing Straw Hats, preventing her from rampaging across Whole Cake Island and buying everyone enough time to actually bake a spare cake. During the Onigashima Raid, Law exploits Luffy and Kid's Leeroy Jenkins tendencies by allowing them to enter Onigashima through the front door, leaving the Beast Pirates too distracted to notice the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance infiltrating Kaido's castle.

We Need a Distraction / int_aaee3ed7	comment	In Voyage of the Unicorn, after the main characters reach the camp of the trolls who have captured a powerful artifact that they need, Alan, the father of the two kid heroes, says "we need a distraction." Without saying a word, Cassie, the younger of the two daughters, rushes off, runs right in front of a troll, and removes her disguise. "Hi guys!" What follows next is her being chased and ultimately captured and tied up. Probably not her intent, but it did help the rest of her family retrieve the artifact while the trolls were distracted - while trying to rescue her, that is.

We Need a Distraction / int_aba7ffb9	comment	In The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV, the Orchis Tower from Crossbell is emitting a beam of light, powering the barrier to a shrine that Rean and his party need to go in order to have a duel with his and Arianrhod's Divine Knights and they need to take it out. But because the operation is unsanctioned and the fact that most of the group are wanted men in the empire, they decided to hold a concert at the largest theater in Crossbell, distracting the guards from their jobs while Rean and a select few go in and take out the machine that's emitting the barrier. In The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie, Rean, Crow, and Rufus' Final Boss fight against Ishmelga-Rean piloting Zoa Gilstein has them keeping him occupied while part of the group led by Lapis goes to the central terminal to deactivate the tower. It nearly doesn't work as Ishmelga-Rean notices it and nearly takes the group out with only Rufus pulling off a Diving Save to save them.

Han suggests setting off an explosion in another part of the clearinghouse, far from the Aegis, to draw the pirates away, and Leia decides to blow up the command center—and possibly Big Bad Viest herself, knowing that there will be pirates who want to seize power from her whether she survives or not. To convince the pirates in their ships around the clearinghouse that they are under attack, she rigs up a transmission suggesting a large force of Imperials have arrived, by doctoring the Aegis's recording of the Death Star and its support ships arriving in Alderaanian space before it destroyed the planet. When neither of those are enough to scare away most of the pirates between Leia's party and their ship, Han calls Luke and Chewbacca in the newly arrived Millennium Falcon and has them actually attack the clearinghouse to convince the pirates to run.

For example, a common variation is to harass a target so that a Spy can get behind them to backstab them. Spies and bonked Scouts can be very effective in distracting sentry fire (and their Engineers), so that other team-members can take them out. The Spy's often-overlooked ability to disguise as a member of his own team can let him create a diversion for himself, disappearing behind a corner while disguised as a Medic or Sniper and waiting for the victim to give chase.

Chewie very grudgingly complies. In order for the Millennium Falcon to land on the planet Seymarti without the Star Destroyer in orbit shooting it down, Luke and his Red Wave squadron of X-wings engage the Star Destroyer in battle while the Falcon sneaks past on minimal power. Afterward, the X-wings conduct an airstrike on the Imperial ground troops so Han's party can get past them, again. Razor's Edge: It takes multiple layers of distractions to allow the Aegis to escape the Space Pirates' clearinghouse by ensuring that the pirates are too occupied to attack it. Han suggests setting off an explosion in another part of the clearinghouse, far from the Aegis, to draw the pirates away, and Leia decides to blow up the command center—and possibly Big Bad Viest herself, knowing that there will be pirates who want to seize power from her whether she survives or not. To convince the pirates in their ships around the clearinghouse that they are under attack, she rigs up a transmission suggesting a large force of Imperials have arrived, by doctoring the Aegis's recording of the Death Star and its support ships arriving in Alderaanian space before it destroyed the planet. When neither of those are enough to scare away most of the pirates between Leia's party and their ship, Han calls Luke and Chewbacca in the newly arrived Millennium Falcon and has them actually attack the clearinghouse to convince the pirates to run.

We Need a Distraction / int_e8343108	comment	Angel Beats!: One mission requires that certain members of the resistance create a distraction for an entire classroom full of students. After Look Behind You, taking off one's shirt, and a Love Confession fail, Yuri simply sends Hinata and Takamatsu flying into the ceiling using rockets on their seats. In fact, this happens so often in the episode that they get resigned to the fact that they WILL be shot into the ceiling, no matter what. "Girls Dead Monster" is an entire band created for the purpose of distraction.

We Need a Distraction / int_ea4f62db	comment	Family Guy: Inverted in "Wasted Talent", Peter needs to be drunk to play piano and they ran out of beer, so he and Lois crash an underage drinking party. The cops show up and bust them in the back yard. Peter handles it by telling Lois "Look over there." She does. He then tells the cops "Run!". They do. A common gag on the show is to have Peter piss off one of the main characters so furiously that it looks like hell is about to be raised. Peter then responds with a "Yikes! Looks like I need a distraction! Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Conway Twitty!", followed by a Cutaway Gag to a live-action music video of a song being performed by country singer Konway Twitty. Up until "The Juice is Loose" where they played the entire song being nearly 4 minutes long. This episode has so far been rated the lowest in the entire series.
