** Happens in episode "Lisa the Vegetarian," when it was Lisa who did something bad for a change:

** In "Wedding For Disaster", Homer is kidnapped and Bart and Lisa, after finding a potential clue, assume Sideshow Bob is responsible. They track him down, but he is proven innocent of this particular crime. Ironically, one of the true culprits, Selma Bouvier, was a near-victim of Sideshow Bob in the past
** Happens earlier in "Brother from [[Frasier|Another Series]]", where Bob goes to work building a dam with his brother Cecil's company. Bart suspects Bob is up to no good as usual, but this turns out to be the one time he isn't planning something evil

Line 253:
* In [[The New Adventures of Batman]], Batman and Robin intercept Scarecrow after he escaped from Arkham Asylum. However, he reveals while they have him in custody that he wasn't even planning to do any crimes. Actually, he broke out just to get away from Arkham Asylum due to the new security chief (who was extremely abusive to the prisoners).
* [[Recess|Randall]] also had this trope invoked on him twice: The first time, most of the secrets that TJ and the others held were exposed to the teachers and staff, to which they ended up busted. They initially think Randall was behind their being ratted out, but Randall (who was in the garbage can to listen in) insisted that he did not. A chase to the bathroom later, and they end up discovering that Randall really wasn't behind their being ratted out that time: It was the so-called "cool kid" Stone who joined up with their possie who was in fact an undercover department of education individual who disguised himself as a student so Superintendent Skinner could find out the going abouts by the school who did it. The second time was when Randall hired the Ashley's younger brothers to act as proxies for him for his snitching job due to his getting cold at his sleuthing skills. One day, a lot more kids were put in The Box, including King Bob, whom he blamed Randall for it. However, Randall mentioned that reporting higher authority figures was a low even he wouldn't go as low as, and immediately told off the Ashley's brothers for it, and attempted to put a stop to it, although they were one step ahead of him and reported him for it as well.
* The ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode "Killer Queen" starts with Peter and Chris going to a "fat farm" after Chris gets sick by winning an [[Eating Contest]], which turns lethal after two campers are murdered. Peter suspects Patrick (from "The Fat Guy Strangler") is the culprit, seeing as Patrick is a [[Serial Killer]] who targets fat guys, and who has just that day been released from a psychiatric hospital. But Patrick has a pretty solid alibi, having still been in the facility when the first victim's body was found. {{spoiler|The true culprit is Charles Yamamoto, the
