Line 26:
* In the ''[[Trigun]]'' manga, part of [[The Reveal]] in the flashback arc is that Rem was complicit in {{spoiler|the [[Strapped to An Operating Table|testing]] to [[They Would Cut You Up|destruction]] of Tesla, the girl [[Artificial Human|born from the bulbs]] before Vash and Knives were.}} Her mothering of the twins is an attempt to make amends for not doing anything to save Tesla. When they are found out by another researcher, he turns out to feel the same way.
** Of course, Knives does not much care about that part, concludes with [[Jerkass Has a Point|justification]] that [[Humans Are Bastards]], goes [[Axe Crazy]] and makes a good shot at a [[Kill All Humans]] plan. And Vash spends the next several decades feeling he has to make amends for that, somehow, until Knives ''uses him to blow up a fucking city'', and then he feels the need to make up for ''that''. Then Knives does it again, although Vash managed to evacuate that one first.
* A major villain successfully pulls this off as the punch line to one of ''[[Naruto]]'''s more spectacular [[Wham! Episode|Wham Arc]]s.
* In ''[[Tsukigasa (Manga)|Tsukigasa]]'', Azuma feels incredibly guilty about cutting off Kuroe's arm, but doesn't know how to make amends. Eventually he gives Kuroe a blade and tells him to do whatever he likes to even the score but it's only when they finally are completely honest about everything that it gets resolved and Azuma can let go of some of the guilt.
* In ''[[World Embryo]]'', this is become Riku's motive, recently. His [[Consummate Liar|habit of lying]] had made many victims, including his friends and loved ones, and he intends to repair that.
Line 69:
* Connor does this in ''[[Primeval]]'', in episode 5 of series 5, though he shows the intention a little before hand.
{{quote| '''Connor:''' I helped build this. I need to make it right.}}
* The [[Doctor Who (TV)|Tenth Doctor]] in both parts of "The End of Time" after an [[A God Am I]] moment in 'The Waters of Mars', with elements of [[Blood Knight]].
* An episode of ''[[Law and Order Criminal Intent]]'' had one of the main characters accidentally shoot a suspect, who turned out to be a cop. Cue the [[Big No]].
** Also happens in ''[[Law and Order SVU]]'' when Elliot realizes that a little girl falsely accused an innocent man of being her rapist, under pressure from Elliot himself and the shrink. The guy does ''not'' forgive Elliot since his life is already ruined, but Elliot throws himself wholeheartedly into finding the true culprit - and does so.
