Not Me This Time: Difference between revisions

Line 134:

* In [[Dragon Quest II]], you get to meet the Dragonlord's grandson, and he's even sitting on his grandpa's throne. However, the fact Charlock Castle looks like crap kinda disabuses you of the notion he had anything to do with the plot, and he's outright confirms it. In fact, not only does basically consider his and your families' pasts water under the bridge, he even [[Enemy Mine|considers Hargon a pretentious upstart]] and gives you some info on how to kick his ass.

* [[Ratchet and Clank All 4 One]] starts with Dr. Nefarious siccing a huge monster onto Ratchet, Clank, and Captain Qwark. After the monster is beaten, a massive spaceship appears in the sky, and as the four are staring up in wonder, Nefarious remarks, "That's not one of mine." just before they get abducted.

Line 150:

** Who's the butcher and/or Peach's kidnapper? [[Genre Savvy|Bowser?]] [[Hijacked by Ganon|Ganondorf?]] Mario assumes Bowser, but Luigi is the main character and has no idea, so we have no idea.

** {{spoiler|Played with in that it ''was'' Ganondorf, using the butcher''s'', as well as Olimar and others. Ganondorf was then hijacked by the biggest evil in the series, ''Kirby''.}}

* The [[That Guy With The Glasses]] team review of ''[[The Last Airbender]]'' has a group of reviewers forced to watch the movie; the group initially thinks [[The Nostalgia Critic]] is behind it, since last year he did exactly that with ''[[~~Dragon Ball~~ Evolution]]''. When they contact him, [[Even Evil Has Standards|he's horrified at the idea of anyone sitting through it]].

** {{spoiler|It was [[You Can Play This|JewWario]], he accidentally left the disc there after borrowing [[Y: Ruler of Time]]'s [[Avatar: The Last Airbender]] DVD.}}

* The ''[[Downfall (film)|Downfall]]'' Parody meme on [[YouTube]] normally sees either Fegelein or Himmler (or often both) pulling antics on Hitler. Once the spin-off series based around [[Joseph Stalin]] and the cast of [[Das Boot]] got their own antic masters, Fegelein frequently had to explain to Hitler's staff that he wasn't involved in whatever embarassment had just befallen Hitler, often with little success.

Line 158:

* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'':

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

{{quote|'''Marge:''' "Bart, [[Big No|Nooooo!]]"

'''Bart:''' (Standing beside her) "What?"

'''Marge:''' "Sorry, force of habit. Lisa, [[Big No|nooooo!]]" }}

** 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 was a near-victim of Sideshow Bob in the past, Selma Bouvier, along with her [[Psycho Lesbian]] twin sister, Patty Bouvier.

** 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, it's his brother in an embezzlement (and technically revenge) scheme. When Wiggum shows up to arrest Cecil, he arrests Bob as well, mostly just out of habit.

{{quote|'''Bob:''' But I saved the children!

'''Cecil:''' [[Genre Savvy|Tell them they'll live to regret this]].

'''Bob:''' ''You'll all live to regret this!'' [[Sarcasm Mode|Oh, thanks a lot, now]] ''[[Sarcasm Mode|I]]'' [[Sarcasm Mode|look crazy]]! }}

** In the episode ''Two Dozen And One Greyhounds'', Lisa, Marge, and Homer wonder who was causing various problems within the house lately (such as tearing up all her test papers, a broken vase, and spreading garbage all over the neighbor's yard before Homer got the chance to, respectively). Bart quips that he was this time innocent of these, and felt they were simply senseless destruction without any of his usual commentary. Turns out, it was the dog, who was continuing his path of destruction even in the room where they were located discussing what's happening.

Line 199:

** This happens to him a few times. In another episode, where the Gargoyles are looking into who stole the Scrolls of Merlin, and Broadway is missing, they immediately head to Xanatos, only to have Owen tell them Xanatos had nothing to do with it. He then helpfully suggests they try MacBeth, who ''was'' behind the theft.

** An interesting example in one episode, Sevarius and Xanatos create an evil clone of Goliath as an instrument in one of Xanatos' plans. A few weeks later, Sevarius recieves a message from the clone posing as Xanatos, telling him to steal several million dollars from Xanatos Enterprises and then meet Xanatos at an abandoned offshore oil rig. Sevarius does this without question, assuming it to be part of a "Machiavellian scheme against your (Xanatos') enemies", when Xanatos shows up and begins berating Sevarius for emebezzlement, his first assumption is that they're being watched.

* Inverted in one episode of ''[[A Pup Named Scooby Doo]]'', where it turns out it really was [[Meaningful Name|Red Herring]] this time; naturally, it was the one episode where Freddie promised ''not'' to accuse of him of anything.

* ''[[Kim Possible]]'':

** When she finds out that her [[Arch Enemy]] Dr. Drakken has been broken out of prison by a woman with "green energy blasts", she naturally drops in on his [[Sidekick]] Shego, only to find out later that it was actually an alien who did it.

{{quote|'''Shego:''' [[This Is Sparta|I'm. On. Va]]''[[This Is Sparta|cation!]]''

'''Ron:''' So, it ''wasn't'' you that busted out Drakken?

'''Shego:''' Who do you think I'm vacationing ''from?'' }}

*** The same episode also had an inversion occur: In the scene Drakken was busted out of prison, the ceiling of his cell was blown up, and he initially thinks that its one of Shego's bailouts again. Another prisoner then reveals that the person in question is in fact trying to bust Drakken out.
