* The ''[[DCAU]]'' is fond of the "Oh, no" variant, and manages to keep it consistently funny, at that. The greatest example possibly comes in ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'', when the time-traveling villain Chronos sends one of the Jokerz back to the time of the dinosaurs for betraying him:

** At the very end of "Secret Society", we are treated to a gorilla's [[Oh Crap]] face after Grodd attempts to use his psychic attack on Superman, who manages to resist enough to [[Finger-Poke of Doom|flick Grodd in the nose, sending him flying]]. A little earlier, Shade had one on as Superman, in the blink of an eye, interposed between his fist and Batman.

** There's a pretty priceless one early on when [[Lex Luthor]] is informed that while humans are mostly unaffected by Kryptonite, studies have shown that it can cause blood poisoning in terrestrial life if the subject is exposed for a long period of time. Lex happens to carry some around in his pocket.
<div id="mw-head-base" class="noprint"></div>
** Luthor tops himself in the episode "Alive!", part 1 of the series finale. His change of expression from exultant triumph to shock and horror when {{spoiler|he resurrects ''Darkseid'' instead of Brainiac}} is just epic.

** This one takes most of the episode "Far From Home" to set up. Supergirl, Green Arrow, and Green Lantern are abducted to the 31th Century by Brainiac 5, who is nearly clobbered by Supergirl before he can explain that he's a ''good'' guy, unlike that OTHER Brainiac. The two eventually hit it off. In the last scene, GA and GL are back in the present, and show Superman a farewell video from Supergirl: she's staying in the future because it's more like her lost home, and "Also, I met this guy...." It's a heartwarming moment as Superman realizes that although this is the best for her, he may never see his young cousin again.Then, smirking a little, he turns to the heroes:

{{quote|'''Joker:''' See, Batsy, I think of everything! Hahahahahahaha-- AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!}}

** Another one in the episode "Almost Got 'im". Several villains have been sitting around playing poker and sharing stories about how they almost killed Batman, but failed. The Joker's story ends with him successfully capturing Catwoman and he reveals her location, and that he's about to head off and finish her. Then Killer Croc says "I don't think so" in Batman's voice, and the Joker's expression in the split second before he's thrown across the room is priceless.
<div id="mw-head">
*** Harley Quinn gets one in the same episode; guarding the [[Death Trap]] that Catwoman has been placed into when Batman comes calling, when Batman captures her Harley smugly gloats that he can either beat her up or save Catwoman, and [[Sadistic Choice|can't do both]]. Unfortunately for her, she's neglected to consider the large circuit breaker the two are standing beside, and when he [[Take a Third Option|just shuts the power off]] her expression and reaction is even ''more'' priceless:
<div id="p-personal" role="navigation" class="" aria-labelledby="p-personal-label">

** And in "Joker's Favor," regular Gothamite [[Butt Monkey|Charlie Collins]] is driving home after a miserable day at work when some jerk cuts him off on the freeway. Charlie pulls alongside the other driver, rolls down his window, and proceeds to [[Gosh Dang It to Heck|cuss and threaten the other driver]]... until said driver turns and gives him a [[The Joker|BIGGGG smile]]. Charlie's face is pretty much distilled [[Oh Crap]] at that point.
<ul>
*** Charlie returns the favor by trapping the Joker in an alley with a bomb. Joker is absolutely terrified, thinking he's actually going to die, and cries out for Batman to save him. {{spoiler|The bomb was a dud.}}

** Don't forget "Fear of Victory," when a [[Faceless Goons|bookie's henchman]] is sent to find out why "Mr. Lucky" never loses, no matter how many bets he places. The henchman follows Lucky to an abandoned horse stall, threatens him, and goes to pull him out of the shadows... only to find out he has just collared [[Mad Doctor|the Scarecrow]]. [[It Got Worse|Things go downhill from there]].
</div>
** And of course there's also "Two-Face, Part 1," when [[Split Personality|Big Bad Harv]] takes control over Harvey Dent:

* The scene from the episode of ''[[Static Shock]]'' where the Joker shows up to cause trouble in Static's neck of the woods. At the end he's been defeated and tries his famous joybuzzer trick on Batman, but Static grabs his hand instead. I love the Oh Crap look he gets when not only was his joybuzzer ineffective, but Static decides to return the favor in [[Shock and Awe|his own way]]. The Joker was [[Incredibly Lame Pun|very shocked]] by that turn of events.

** That Dark Circle guy's face when he {{spoiler|pushes the trigger for a bomb supposed to blow up a satellite but it fails to go off}} is classic.
<input type="checkbox" class="vectorMenuCheckbox" aria-labelledby="p-variants-label" />
* Both main characters of ''[[Invader Zim]]'' have been on the receiving end on this trope on several occasions, the most obvious example being when Dib sees the massive water balloon about to crush the city (and him) in "The Wettening". Even secondary characters aren't immune, with the Tallests (along with their entire crew) displaying classic Oh Crap expressions as their ship, being controlled by Zim, is about to crash into a sun.
<h3 id="p-variants-label">
* During the finale of ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', {{spoiler|<s>Fire Lord</s> Phoenix King Ozai}} goes into [http://iroh.org/screencaps/ep61/ep61-257.png serious]{{Dead link}} Oh Crap mode when {{spoiler|Aang enters the Avatar State during the final showdown}}. [[Curb Stomp Battle|The asskicking that ensues is nothing less than epic,]] and starts with {{spoiler|grabbing him by the beard and blasting him into a stone pillar}}.
<span>Variants</span>
** {{spoiler|Ozai}} gets a somewhat more subdued Oh Crap expression earlier in the same fight, when {{spoiler|Aang catches his massive Comet-enhanced lightning attack and looks like he's going to redirect it right at Ozai, who unlike Aang had no way to defend against lightning. But since Aang [[Thou Shalt Not Kill|refused to kill, he redirected the lightning into the sky instead.]]}}
</h3>
** Jet gets a slow-motion zoom-in shot of this nature when {{spoiler|Long Feng kills him}}.
<div class="menu">
** This is Aang's reaction when he just barely manages to save himself from getting skewered with a throwing star in his first battle with Mai.
<ul>
** Sokka also gets several, one notable example of which is his expression in Episode 2, when the Fire Nation boat is about to mow him down.
</ul>
** The look on Zuko's face when he realizes that his sister is about to wipe the floor with him at the start of Book 2 really says it all.
</div>
*** Also in the Book 1 episode ''The Storm''. During a flashback, younger Zuko does this when he realizes that his own father is about to burn the [[Incredibly Lame Pun|royal crap]] out of him.
</div>
*** Actually, Zuko gets a lot of these... practically once an episode during Book 1.
</div>
**** One particularly epic one came in chapter 18 when Zhao {{spoiler|sees and recognizes the swords used by the Blue Spirit (Zuko) when he freed Aang from the Fire Nation fortress}}. Zuko instantly realizes that Zhao just put two and two together and the look on his face just ''screams'' this trope.
<div id="right-navigation">
** In the ''Day Of Black Sun'', we get a close-up of Aang's face panning [http://piandao.org/screencaps/ep51/ep51-540.png out]{{Dead link}} to reveal an equally shocked Sokka.
<div id="p-views" role="navigation" class="vectorTabs emptyPortlet" aria-labelledby="p-views-label">
*** The characters and viewers get one towards the end of that two-parter with the reveal not only that the Mechanist's air balloon had been mass-produced by the Fire Nation, but that they'd gone and invented ''airships''.

** Zhao {{spoiler|when Tui grabs him.}} That is all.
<ul>
*** A little bit before then, Zhao realizes he's in deep shit when {{spoiler|he kills La}}, and [[Badass Grandpa|Iroh retaliates.]]
</ul>
** Azula herself gets one in the [[Grand Finale]]... when {{spoiler|Katara encases her in a block of ice}}
</div>
** Katara gets one of these towards the end of Season 2, when she discovers Zuko in Ba Sing Se, goes to the palace to report him, and {{spoiler|there runs into Azula and company disguised as the Kyoshi Warriors.}} Not your lucky day, Katara.

** Really, we have a couple of these in every single episode. Someone should go through, watch the whole series again, and make a whole another page for it. Any volunteers?
<h3 id="p-cactions-label"><span>More</span></h3>
*** Sure, this troper can get on it. This show kinda needs one.
<div class="menu">
** Crowning one goes to the opening of season 2, where Azula and her elite guard almost tricked Zuko and Iroh onto the Fire Nation boat. When the captain uttered "we're taking the prisoners home", not only does he get an Oh Crap face, but so does Azula, Iroh and Zuko. 4 for the price of 1!
<ul>
*** Iroh doesn't really give an [[Oh Crap]] face as he suspected this kind of treachery. His face was more of a "Time to kick ass" face.
</ul>
*** And Azula's wasn't really an [[Oh Crap]] face either. It was more of a "[[You Have Failed Me...|you idiot!]]" face, as she was looking directly at the captain.
</div>
** The Earthbender general in "The Avatar State" gets one when he realizes that Aang in the Avatar State is not too happy with him.
</div>
** One more for Azula (as the show's resident [[Magnificent Bastard]], she doesn't get too many herself), during the season two finale when Aang collapses the rock formation she's clinging to. Particularly notable as the only time we ever hear her ''gasp in fear''.
<div id="p-search" role="search">
** {{spoiler|Hama}} gets two moments in The Puppetmaster; once when Katara breaks free from her control, and again just before Katara floors her with a powerful waterbending attack.
<h3>
** From the first season, the episode that introduces Hei Bai has two, both involving Roku's dragon. The first, of course, is when Aang sees the dragon heading towards him, and realizes that he ''can't bend in the Spirit World,'' and the second is when the dragon ''banks up and flies towards the ceiling'' in Roku's temple. Seeing that the dragon never did intend to hurt him, though, each of these instances would probably count more as a [[Subverted Trope|subversion.]]
<label for="searchInput">Search</label>
** Oh man, when [[Sealed Good in a Can|Avatar Roku]] manifests before the traitorous fire Temple Sages, he ain't happy about the way they've been treating his reincarnated self. The poor sages don't even stop to think, no - they just shit their pants and '''[[Don't Ask, Just Run|RUN.]]'''
</h3>
* ''[[The Legend of Korra]]'' is shaping up to have just as many of these moments as its predecessor. For example, in "[[The Legend of Korra/Recap/B1/E01 Welcome to Republic City|Welcome to Republic City]]", [[Mugging the Monster|three mob members try to attack Korra]]. When she effortlessly redirects a water bending attack and freezes the guy's face, his expression becomes stuck as this. By the end, with Korra besting them with ''three'' elements, that's all they can express.
<form action="/w/index.php" id="searchform">
** In the second episode, Korra participates in a pro-bending tournament. Tenzin hears about this, and comes to retrieve her. Korra gets knocked off the platform during the tournament, and as she swims to the edge, Tenzin is standing not five feet from where she pulls herself up. She tries brushing it off casually, with only slight amounts of success.
<div id="simpleSearch">
** In "When Extremes Meet", this is Korra's ''priceless'' reaction to Ikki revealing to Asami, Mako's girlfriend, that Korra [[Love Dodecahedron|loves Mako]]

** In the same episode, Korra gives one when she realizes {{spoiler|Tarrlok can bloodbend}} and in the next episode Tarrlok gets one when {{spoiler|Amon resists his bloodbending.}}
</form>
* ''[[Transformers Animated]]:''
</div>
** The look of ''pure abject horror'' on Optimus Prime's face when the restored Megatron (whom he'd thought dead since the first episode) bursts out of Sumdac Tower is priceless. This is a 'bot who understands ''exactly'' how completely and utterly screwed he is.
</div>
** The Elite Guard get a big one when, after insisting for the entire episode that there are no Decepticons on Earth, they face off with Starscream, who is more than willing to show the lot of them a taste of what Optimus has been up against.
</div>
*** Ultra Magnus has a pretty good one. After telling the Autobots to stand back, he presumably intended to deal with the situation. As soon as he turns around, Starscream has recovered and is pointing his weapons right in Magnus's face. *[[The Worf Effect|blast]]!*
<div id="mw-panel">
*** [[Memetic Mutation|He just couldn't deal with that now.]]

** Also from the 80s movie. Galvatron's expression when Unicron begins to transform is about the purest expression of this trope as I've ever seen.

* Happened to Butt-head in ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'''s Butt-O-Ween special. But, being Butt-head, his facial expression remains static, and his reaction amounts to "Uhh, uh-oh."

** Also done whenever the season's [[Magnificent Bastard]] thinks that he/she is about to be voted off.

* In the end of ''[[Kim Possible]] -- [[The Movie|Sitch In Time]]'' we don't see [[The Dragon|Shego's]] face while she is witnessing [[You Suck|Ron's]] sudden [[Kim Possible/Awesome|Crowning Moment Of Awesome]], but the fact that she actually begins to flee from him tells a great deal.

** Drakken also has an "Oh, crap!" moment when he realizes Shego must also be wearing a Moodulator like Kim, which he just locked into "an irreversible frenzy of rage":

** And Ron had one shortly before, after the inventor informed him that Kim was now locked in an "irreversible frenzy of rage...so I hope she's not mad at anyone." Ron had just given her the [[Let's Just Be Friends|'let's just be friends']] talk.

** Bart Simpson has one of these moments after he burns his name into forty-foot long letters on Springfield Elementary School's athletic field with grass killer. An enraged Principal Skinner roars Bart's name after seeing it, and Bart gulps both audibly and nervously. He then has another moment when Skinner is yelling at him in his office:

* Megabyte from ''[[Re Boot]]'' is not only a stoic and sophisticated [[Chessmaster]] and master manipulator, but also the most physically-powerful program in Mainframe. His memories of Enzo Matrix are of a brash, overconfident, hyperactive little boy. So when the now grown up [[Future Badass]] calling himself Matrix falls for his goading, tries to beat him up personally, ''lands one'', and ''leaves a fist-sized dent in his chest''... it's one of the best facial expressions in the series.

<li id="footer-poweredbyico">
* It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it, but Slade of ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' got a ''really'' good one in the episode "The Prophecy". Particularly sweet, because up until that point, Slade had been the [[The Stoic|stoic,]] [[The Quiet One|quiet]], [[The Chessmaster|chessmaster]] villain. Then Raven shows up and gives him a good old-fashioned ass kicking.

** Of course, Slade himself tends to generate these moments too, especially during Season 4 {{spoiler|when he comes back from the dead as [[The Dragon]] of [[Big Bad|Trigon]].}} The Titans got a ''collective'' [[Oh Crap]] look when they first saw him.
</ul>
** Slade also gets a very quick one in "Betrayal" after he shoots Beast Boy. When he looks up after briefly taunting Terra, he briefly goes (one-) wide-eyed to find himself facing one very ticked off [[Everything's Worse with Bears|giant green bear]].
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
** Doctor Light gets a classic one. After gloating and preparing to make his getaway, Raven shows up behind him, in full scare the crap out of you mode, with that immortal line "Remember me?" Light's face goes white, and he calmly asks to go to jail.

_paq.push(["setSiteId", "2"]);
* In ''[[Futurama]]'', one of Bender's more [[Catch Phrase|common expressions]] is "I'm/We're boned!", for more or less these kinds of situations. He gets himself into trouble a ''lot''. Another [[Catch Phrase]] of his is "Cheese it!", also for these kinds of situations.
_paq.push(["setCustomVariable", 1, "userType", "Anonymous", "visit"]);
* [[Appropriated Appellation|The Samurai Known As]] [[Samurai Jack|Jack]] spends a good portion of episode 2 like this, having been flung into the [[Crapsack World|dystopian future]] where he's falling between skyscrapers and getting hit by flying cars and ''[[Fish Out of Temporal Water|nothing makes seeeeense]]''.

* Lucius on ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'' gets a particularly good one when he sees an [[Embarrassing Old Photo|embarrassing old home movie]] playing for all of Miseryville to see.

* The characters of ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'' got three in quick succession in the last ten minutes of the [[Grand Finale]] [[The Movie|Movie]]: {{spoiler|Eddy, when his brother demanded that he "play Uncle", Double D when Eddy's brother starts beating the shit out of Eddy, and everyone else when Eddy's brother starts to beat up ''Double D'' using Eddy as a club.}}

* Dr. Venture of ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'' pretty much whenever he screws up or pisses someone off.
<!-- End Matomo Code -->
* ''[[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers]]'': The other three Rangers have busted into the Queen's [[Supervillain Lair|Asteroid Palace]] (which they've done before) to rescue their captain. Around the corner comes a Slaverlord, a high-end class of [[Mook]] they've shot down dozens of times before...Guns up, they're about to open fire. The Slaverlord's form then takes on Zach's form [[Mass "Oh Crap"|and they realize they didn't get there in time]].
<!-- Matomo Image Tracker -->
** Another good one was in "Aces and Apes." The Rangers are chasing Lazarus Slade, who is a marginally competent member of their [[Rogues Gallery]]...but then they see that Slade [[It Got Worse|has a partner]]. Said partner is The Scarecrow, arguably their ''nastiest'' opponent.
<noscript><p><img src="https://matomo.miraheze.org/piwik.php?idsite=2&amp;rec=1&amp;action_name=Special:Badtitle" style="border:0;" alt="" /></p></noscript>
* On ''[[Drawn Together]]'', Xainder has these a lot, more often than not due to Captain Hero.
<!-- End Matomo --><script>(window.RLQ=window.RLQ||[]).push(function(){mw.config.set({"wgBackendResponseTime":151,"wgHostname":"mw2"});});</script>
* D-list bad guy the Mandrill gets a great example of this during the beginning of episode 3 of ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes|Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes]]''. After robbing a bank he is confronted by...the Wasp. He's less than impressed. Then Iron Man shows up. Still confident. Then Thor, Giant-Man, and ''the Hulk'' show up. His spectacular oh crap face is followed by a wise choice to surrender.
</body>
** Another great example comes when the Avengers must stop Kang from taking over New York. When Hawkeye and Hulk encounter some of Kang's robots on a bridge, Hawkeye tells the Hulk to go rest while he fights them solo. The robots then {{spoiler|combine into one [[Giant Mecha]]}}, leaving Hawkeye shocked.
</html>
** Five Avengers react like this after Ultron's beam apparently causes {{spoiler|Thor to vanish}}.
* [[Count Duckula]] has one of these at the start of each episode in the [[Expository Theme Tune]]. Igor really should have checked the label first...
* In ''[[G.I. Joe: Renegades]]'' James McCullen, [[Mugging the Monster|after trying to play hardball with Cobra Industries]], gets an ''epic'' one after Adam DeCobrey reveals his true identity as Cobra Commander.
** And in an earlier one, Scrap-Iron gets an awesome one in slow-motion when a mech-suit equipped, [[Unstoppable Rage]]-fueled {{spoiler|Roadblock}} sends a missile he fired [[Catch and Return|right back at him]].
* ''[[Thomas the Tank Engine]]'' uses this a lot. Each engine model has a scared face that's absolutely perfect for this. Commonly seen when an engine's train becomes a [[Runaway Train|runaway]]. A good one would be in "Old Iron". James is cruising along light engine (due to some naughty boys climbing into his cab and playing with his controls), enjoying himself. Then he notices he's going faster and faster, and realizes his cab is empty. "What shall I do? I can't stop! '''HELP! HELP!'''"
** Diesel 10's arrival and some of his actions in [[The Movie]] produce this reaction as well as [[This Is Gonna Suck]].
* [[Fan Nickname|Dan Phantom]] gets one in the ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' episode "The Ultimate Enemy", when he's sent flying into a petrol tanker {{spoiler|and quickly learns one of the drawbacks of having [[Flaming Hair]], as the vehicle explodes}}.
* In the [[Ben 10]] episode "Ben 10,000 Returns", when {{spoiler|young Ben as waybig is hit by Eon's time aging ray and crumbles into a big pile of dust, Professor Paradox and Ben 10,000 both give a great open-mouthed oh crap face from a side view.}}
* In the ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' episode "Seer No Evil", Monterrey Jack has one when he realizes that he, Gadget, and Dale are in a trunk, which is the last of the fortune teller's predictions that ends with Chip's death. {{spoiler|He doesn't die after all.}}
* ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode "Stuck Together, Torn Apart",. Brian and Stewie share this moment after getting their hands stuck together:
{{quote|(Both read the industrial glue '''Never Comes Unstuck''')
'''Brian''': Oh...
'''Stewie''': Crap. }}
** Also uttered by Peter when realizing that he is to fight Ernie the Giant Chicken for the third time.
** Brian and Stewie when they find out the present Jesus gave Peter was {{spoiler|[[Ear Worm|a Surfin' Bird record]]}}.
{{quote|'''Meg:''' What did he give you?
'''Peter:''' Oh you haven't heard?
'''Stewie:''' '''''CRAAAAAAAAAAP!!!''''' }}
* Invoked numerous times on ''[[Sealab 2021]]'', but especially notable during Quinn's [[Mushroom Samba]] episode with the seal,Stinky Pete, being chased by a shark.
{{quote|'''Stinky Pete:''' Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap, oh crap, oh crap, oh crap, OH CRAP ON A CRAP CRACKER!!}}
* Used repeatedly by the Urpneys (especially Frizz) in ''[[The Dreamstone]]'', usually when a plan goes horribly wrong or [[Bad Boss|Zordrak]] goes into one of his [[Unstoppable Rage|epic tantrums]] [[You Have Failed Me...|as a result]].
** Played with in the episode "Electric Eggs", after the Urpneys bump into Rufus and Amberley, expecting the worst, only for the latter to perform this trope as well and run for it.
* Flint has this look in the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' episode "The Gamesmaster" when the Gamesmaster stands up from his chair and is revealed to be over ten feet tall.
* In the [[Mickey Mouse]] short ''[[Classic Disney Shorts|The Pointer]]'', when Mickey turns around and realizes that whom he thought was Pluto is actually [[Everything's Worse with Bears|a bear]]. ''While looking right into the bear's jaw.''
* In ''[[Jumanji]] the Animated Series'' Ibsen has quite a few of these, his response is often a small, weak "Oh dear" or some variation.
* In ''[[Gargoyles]]'', The normally unflappable Owen gets one when Anastasia Reynard says that she's remarried her first husband. Why this is is a mystery until both their true natures have been brought to light.
* In [[South Park]] episode 6x11, the owner of the city wok does this absolutely according to the book: He gives a big speech, realises something's wrong, sees the fuse, follows it with his eyes, says "Oh Crap" and gets blown away, together with part of his wall.
* In [[South Park]] episode 6x11, the owner of the city wok does this absolutely according to the book: He gives a big speech, realises something's wrong, sees the fuse, follows it with his eyes, says "Oh Crap" and gets blown away, together with part of his wall.
* In episode 22 of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' "A Bird in the Hoof", Twilight's expression when she sees Princess Celestia's royal guards at Fluttershy's doorstep after Fluttershy ''kidnapped'' Celestia's pet bird Philemena is a perfect example of this. Earlier in "Dragonshy" everypony reacted this way when they realized just how ''big'' and ''angry'' a full-grown dragon gets when somepony interrupts his nap.
** In part 2 of "The Return of Harmony", {{spoiler|Discord}} barely has time to let out a [[Big No]] as {{spoiler|he realizes he was ''dead wrong'' and the heroines have not only rekindled their friendship, but because of that he's about to get blasted head-on with the Elements Of Harmony -- the ''one'' thing that can defeat him -- and theres ''nothing'' he can do about it. Considering all the horrible things he'd put them and Equestria through the past two episodes, this is ''very'' satisfying.}}
** At the end of the second [[Season Finale]], {{spoiler|[[Big Bad|Queen Chrysalis]] gets a perfect one when she looks behind her and sees a [[Heart Beat-Down]] heading her way.}}
* In the pilot episode of ''Star Wars:Rebels'', ISB Agent Kallus has the titular small rag-tag band of Rebels pinned down by his detachment of stormtroopers as they're trying to rescue some Wookie slaves. Their escape ship is being driven off by TIE fighters, they're surrounded and pinned down, and they've got nowhere to go. Kallus starts smiling as Kanan deliberately leaves cover to walk straight into the fire of a dozen blasters, apparently trying to commit suicide by stormtrooper... and stops smiling as he realizes that somehow, Kanan is dodging every blaster bolt that comes at him. [[The Reveal|And then Kanan ignites his lightsaber.]] The heretofore absolutely unflappable Kallus immediate ''takes a step back in fear and stutters'', and his expression is ''priceless''.
{{quote|'''Agent Kallus:''' All troopers! Focus your fire on... (gulps) ... on the ''Jedi''.}}
** And given a wonderful call back in the season 2 opener, when the entire Rebel team finds out who the latest Imperial operative sent out to capture them is. Specifically, that it's '''Darth Vader'''. But the real Oh Crap moment doesn't come until after they've already had the tar beaten out of them in a very short and one-sided fight, that is interrupted when Sabine uses a demolition charge to drop an entire AT-ST walker on top of Vader. Just as they're sighing in relief... the flaming wreckage of the scout walker suddenly lurches upward, to reveal that Vader has been levitating the entire mass using the Force, that it never even touched him, and that now he's ''pissed''. As the red lightsaber re-ignites our heroes immediately turn and flee in abject terror, and who can blame them?
