Trope for when a love interest endangers herself to test the hero’s capabilities
Something I noticed in some old superhero movies was that trope as to clarify, I would like to start with the older Superman movies as sometimes what would happen was that Lois Lane would do something dangerous just to see if Superman would rescue her.
Another example is the Spiderman cartoon from the mid 90s as there was a scene where Mary Jane intentionally threw herself off a building because she was basically testing to see if Spiderman would come save her as while she could have been killed, she wanted to take the plunge anyway again as a test of sorts.
