Ret-Gone: Difference between revisions

Line 338:

* In the ''[[Gravity Falls]]'' episode "The Time Travelers Pig", [[Time Police| Blendin]] swears revenge against Dipper and Mabel for [[Protagonist Centred Morality| stealing his time travel device and ruining his life]], swearing to go back in time and prevent their parents from meeting; one can assume he either changed his mind or failed to do so.

* It is often debated among fans of ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]'' whether or not Sally (Numbuh 3's granddaughter from a [[Bad Future]]) inadvertently (or even ''purposely'') prevented her own birth in "Operation: F.U.T.U.R.E." by helping to [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]] {{spoiler|She clearly was not related to Numbuh 4 in that timeline, and "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S." shows the adult Wally and Kuki married.}} If true, it may count as the most heroic of [[Heroic Sacrifice]]s.

* In the ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode "The Big Bang Theory", Bertram [[Cain and Abel| (Stewie's evil half-brother)]] tries to do this to Stewie via use of the [[Time Machine]]. First he goes back to the day Stewie was conceived, attempting to make Peter so depressed he doesn't want to have sex with Lois, and when that fails, goes back centuries further to kill [[Leonardo da Vinci]], Stewie's ancestor. By the way, this plan would have likely Ret-Goned Bertram too ''and'' created a [[Divide By Zero]] effect that obliterated reality, and Bertram ''knows'' this, but he doesn't care. He is ''that'' obsessed with defeating Stewie.
