Line 1: {{trope}} When a character presents a hypothetical scenario, then sarcastically says something like "Oh, wait!" and observes that it's actually true. Usually used to present a [[Take That]]. Different from [[That Came Out Wrong]] in that the character knows full well what he said. Has nothing to do with [[Hey, Wait!]]. {{examples}} == [[Comics]] == * Inverted in ''[[Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' when the Kingpin asks Spidey why he thinks [[Hero with Bad Publicity\|the public hates him despite all the good he does]]: Line 16 ⟶ 15: {{quote\|'''Sydney White:''' If only there were a place where a superficial, materialistic bitch could fit in. Oh wait, there is.}} * ''[[The Grudge\|The Grudge 3]]'': {{quote\|'''Max''': I'm young, healthy. I got all the time in the world since I was just fired. Yeah, what, are you surprised? Surprised that I couldn't manage a full-time job while raising a chronically sick 8-year-old? ~~{{quote\|~~'''Lisa:''' [[Why Didn't You Just Say So?\|You should have said something]].~~<br />~~ '''Max:''' Gee, I wish I had. Oh, wait, I did, but you were too busy ~~[snip]~~fucking Andy all over the goddamn building to listen to me. }} == [[Live Action TV]] == Line 49: {{quote\|'''Bartlet:''' I'm not an economist, but... no, wait, I am an economist.}} * ''[[Doctor Who]]'', "The Sound of Drums": [[The Master (trope)\|The Master]] is [[Evil Gloating\|monologuing]] about how he now has a pocket-sized version of Professor Lazarus's age-altering machine. {{quote\|If only I had the Doctor's biological code...oh, wait a minute, I do! I've got [[Good Thing You Can Heal\|his]] [[A Love to Dismember\|hand!]]}} * At one episode of ''[[Becker]]'', John tells Chris's ex-husband a [[Shaggy Dog Story\|fairly pointless]] story that ends with he and some friends watching the sunrise - he mentions this as if it was the most interesting part of it. Roger replies, "[[Deadpan Snarker\|There's something you don't see everyday]]. Oh wait, you do." Line 61: * The Scout in ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' when he [[Unsound Effect\|bonks]] someone with a baseball. {{quote\|'''Scout:''' [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/e/eb/Scout_stunballhit01.wav Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hitchya... No, wait, yeah I did].}} * In ''[[~~Starcraft~~StarCraft II]]: Wings of Liberty'', Jim Raynor may say this when you click on him in between missions. {{quote\|'''Raynor:''' I should take a walk outside. Oh, wait.}} ** Mind you, he's in his flagship the ''Hyperion'' while saying this line. Line 75: {{quote\|'''Fernando''': Do you know what my family will do to your people when they find out?? '''Fillipod''': What, {{spoiler\|crack our planet in half?}} '''Oh wait'''. }} * In [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2008/05/08/episode-989-like-riding-a-bike/ this] ''[[8-Bit Theater ~~(Webcomic)~~\|Eight Bit Theater]]'' strip, Red Mage informs Black Mage that they made a new enemy. Black Mage says he'll add it to the list, but Oh Wait, the list already includes "[[Destructive Savior\|Everyone]] [[~~Zero-Percent~~0% Approval Rating\|in the]] [[Designated Hero\|world]]". * ''[[Girl Genius]]'' got personal coffee mug of Martellus (one of the two main heirs/claimants to the Storm King's throne) marked with tagline "[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20141031 YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THE KING TO RULE HERE. WAIT. YES YOU DO]". == [[Web Original]] == Line 109 ⟶ 110: [[Category:Insult Tropes]] [[Category:Stock Phrases]] [[Category:~~Oh, Wait!~~{{PAGENAME}}]]
