EX: The Second Shepherds’ Play a couple disguises a stolen sheep as their newborn son in a clumsy attempt to conceal the theft.

Parody is a key component of situations amongst stock characters, rendering their cultural stereotypes more prominent. EX: Comic relief (Shaggy from Scooby-Doo), English butlers, the fools (characters in King Lear), false heroes (Gilderoy Lockhart), the sidekick, the mother-in-law.
