For the one you picked, I took it as any time I could have lied to a foreign official. Not a earth shattering thing in my case, but as many other people I've not been totally honest with border/immigration officers, knowing I had in my bags stuff that I should not have. (not drugs! lol!)
It's usually unconscious, whenever I travel and may it be in English or French (or Spanish) where I try to mimic the way the locals talk. but I did once have to totally switch for a France accent and make the Quebecquer go away because those French people didn't understand me at all. to the point at looking at me with their jaw hanging opened as if it was Chinese.
Oh, actually I do that too. I was thinking of putting on a fakey accent, but when I travel I tend to pick up inflections in the way people speak and end up, if not with a full-on accent, at least with some kind of hybrid. It was really noticeable when I returned from 3 months in Ireland. I couldn't turn it off.
well I read a lot of fic here at work, and it might have happened (not often!) that it was so steamy there was need to do something. But no one saw and it was very discreet ;)

Lied to foreign government's official in that country to avoid notice.
