Evil All Along: Difference between revisions

Line 80:
** [[Sinister Minister| The High Sparrow]] seemed at first to be somewhat benevolent; after all, Cersi was clearly the greater evil, and could a clergyman who opposes - and punishes her with public humiliation - be ''that'' bad? Well, yes, as his extremism clearly ended up going too far. An unforgiving perfectionist to a fault, he quickly became [[Well-Intentioned Extremist| the embodiment of "taking it to far"]], his form of justice only begetting more injustice.
** Walder Frey. Sure, guy was a pervert and a [[Dirty Old Man]], but he seemed harmless, most famous for not joining Robert's rebellion until he was certain of its success. He was at least loyal to his allies and liege. Then came [[Nasty Party| the Red Wedding...]] In hindsight, the revelation that he was a double-crossing fiend was actually easy to predict.
* MinorThis example.Trope Inis thevery, firstvery scenecommon of the first episode ofin ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''. To illustrate, in the first scene of the first episode a jock-type student is bringing his shy, reluctant girlfriend into the school at night, his words suggesting he's trying to reach first base, so to speak. Seeing as this series is about vampires, the first thought might be that this guy is, in fact, a vampire and is going to attack her. Nope. Other way around. The trend continues throughout the whole series, with Buffy and the Scoobies assuming a classmate or a more [[Genre Savvy]] adult is the victim of an obvious-looking threat, or only to discover the classmate or savvy adult is the mastermind behind the threat.
