This trope can be invoked in works during a character's confession. Innocent characters attempting to take the fall for a crime they did not commit will probably guess facts about the crime that may not be true. If the facts are incorrect, they will be most likely be called out on it immediately or in a [[And Another Thing]] manner. If the character is guilty, they could willingly give information only the perpetrator would know. This could be played to induce [[Squick]]. |
