Line 35:
* In ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]: [[The Movie]]'', Crow jokes that the departure of [[This Island Earth|Cal Meachum]] prompts Joe to sleep off his depression: "I'm gonna curl up in his sock drawer and sleep for days."
* In ''[[In Harm's Way]]'', Admiral Rockwell Torrey is badly wounded in a sea battle and wakes up in a hospital ship next to his love, Maggie Haynes, as head nurse. (Who, somehow, always seems to be assigned to where he is.)
* In the first ''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (film)|Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]'' movie, Oliver Wood tells Harry he was knocked out for a week after taking a Bludger to the head during his first Quidditch game.
* Jason after his {{spoiler|gunshot wound}} in ''[[Mystery Team]]''; this is merely implied.
 
Line 41:
* In the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novel ''The Adventuress of Henrietta Street'', the Doctor's [[Heart Trauma|heart]] [[...And Show It to You|is torn]] [[Organ Theft|out]]. ([[Normally I Would Be Dead Now|It's okay]], he has [[Bizarre Alien Biology|another one]].) He consequently sleeps for a week, and wakes up still visibly wounded but mostly healed, with his friends by his bedside and "an enormous smile on his face". [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|Awww.]]
* Happens to Frodo twice in ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'': once in Rivendell, and once after being rescued from Mount Doom.
* During his encounter with Quirrell at the end of ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and Thethe Philosopher's Stone (novel)|Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]'', Harry falls unconscious and wakes up in the hospital wing three days later.
* In ''[[Circle of Magic|Shatterglass]]'', Tris exhausts her store of magical power (not such a great idea, btw) and as a result sleeps for a week. Literally. This is pretty consistent across both of [[Tamora Pierce]]'s universes - exhaust your magic, and fall asleep for quite awhile.
* In ''Trickster's Choice'', Kyprioth keeps Aly asleep for five days, then again for three more in ''Trickster's Queen''.
Line 66:
== [[Web Original]] ==
* Ruby Rose sleeps for three days after accidentally activating her mysterious "silver eyes" power at the end of Volume 3 of ''[[RWBY]]''.
* Both times Tori suffers from [[Power Strain Blackout]]s from overexerting herself while using crystal magic in the [[Reincarnation Fantasy]] Isekai novel ''[[Tori Transmigrated]]'', she passes out -- the first for three days, the second time for ''a month''.
