* In ''[[Transformers Generation 1]]'', the Quintessons bargain for their lives when Galvatorn barges onto their ship, one of them saying, "If you destroy us, you'll never find the Decepticon Matrix!" (This is a bluff; an [[Evil Counterpart]] of the Autobot Matrix of Leadership does not exist.) Another of the Quintessons whispers to the first one their own version of this Trope, "I calculate a 77.9% chance he doubts the existence of a Decepticon Matrix". He overestimates Galvatron's intelligence; he quickly demands they tell him where it is, enabling them to send him and his men on a wild goose chase. |

'''X5:''' Yes, apparently he is stupid enough.<ref>Although the final scene shows that Maximus was ''not'' that stupid. [[Halfhearted Henchman| His moronic henchman ''Minimus'']], on the other hand...</ref> |
