When I was about six I heard my parents and their friends in the next room light up some pot to smoke when they thought I was asleep. I was petrified that the police would come any minute to arrest them (my parents didn't usually smoke pot, their friends brought it). I smelled the strange smell of the smoke and covered up my face with the pillow because I figured that then I wouldn't breathe any in.
I figured that if I didn't breathe it in the police couldn't arrest me!
(of course they never came)
