A Player wants to sneak around a patrol of guards, so they roll Conceal to see if they succeed.
A Player tries to pocket a valuable item swiftly and discretely and rolls Conceal.
A Player applies makeup to disguise another Player but rolls Suspicion. There are some splotches of paint visible that might tip off anyone who looks carefully.
The Players try to maneuver through a thick forest without being spotted, the Conductor makes them roll Conceal.
The Players try to move unnoticed through a busy street, the Conductor makes them roll Conceal.
Suspicion does not necessarily need to have dire consequences. If a Player knocks over a vase in an empty house, it does not necessarily need to raise the stakes. Use good reasoning or dramatic effect to determine if Suspicion has direct consequences or not.
You may also count the number of Suspicion rolled to increase the consequences. E.g. 1 Suspicion might just be an audible sound, but 3 raises a commotion that alerts anyone nearby. That is particularly helpful for group rolls.
