If something does happen, I can usually adapt my personality to the type of person I'm talking with and make an effort at Spanish that impresses the vast majority of native speakers (of course, that wouldn't help much in HKG).

I haven't seen an actual episode with young Americans--just the BBC based one--really rough stuff--"easy" smuggling jobs botched and ending up in horrid prisons. Joran Van der Sloot has so much to look forward to prison in Peru...
