Line 92:
* ''[[House of Leaves]]'' makes use of this occasionally. For example, two of Will Navidson's dreams are recounted, and the third dream is said to be very unsettling and key to understanding his actions. Naturally, [[Literary Agent Hypothesis|Johnny misplaced those pages]].
** There's also the chapter where Navidson sends samples from the {{color|blue|house}} to be scientifically analyzed, which seems like it would have answered a lot...except Johnny accidentally most of those pages.
* Halfway through ''[[Harry Potter and Thethe Half-Blood Prince (novel)|Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince]]'', Harry observes Professor Slughorn's memory of talking to a young Lord Voldemort in a pensieve. At certain points the image suddenly turns grey, and we hear Slughorn saying things that he didn't say-he modified the memory to cover up telling Voldemort about Horcruxes.
** Ironically, once the true memory is revealed, it turns out Slughorn mostly confirmed what Voldemort had already learned.
* The entire plot of Ellen Raskin's ''The Mysterious Disappearance of Leon (I Mean Noel)'' revolves around this trope.
