Disciplinary Grabs

Although many villains can do this too, there comes a time when the hero or heroine (or the protagonist's caregiver) can take hold of them in a disciplinary way that isn't violent. The most common way is grabbing someone by the ear or any other like schoolboys, whether it's in a comical or serious situation.

Examples

 * Queen Elinor takes Fergus and the lords by the ear to break up a huge brawl.
 * Misty, Max and Croagunk all normally do this to Brock.
 * Jerry Mouse grabs Tuffy by the ear after a sword fight with Tom Cat for his cowardice
 * Aunt Cass grabs Tadashi and Hiro's ears when she tells them off for their reckless actions as soon as they're released from prison.
 * Officer Smith grabs Yogi to ban him from Jellystone Mall for letting the invisible bandit get away.
