The Colbert Report (Comedy Central, 2014)

Princess

“We can trace the woman as reward trope all the way back the beginning of the medium itself as […] upon successful completion of many arcade games players were rewarded with a related smooch of victory trope, so named for the kiss the hero received as a reward for rescuing a kidnapped princess.

On other occasions it's taken a step further by employing the parallel of sex for victory or rescue sex trope.”
