Yank the Dog's Chain: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Oscar Wilde|Wilde]]'': Oscar has it pretty rough in the last 20 minutes or so, what with being imprisoned for 2 years of hard labor just for being gay (because homosexuality was actually ''illegal'' in England back then). Then his wife Constance comes to see him and, guess what? Not only does she ''not'' want a divorce even after he's cheated on her with ''men'' (and lots of them), but [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|she'll let him see his kids again!]] A happy ending for when he gets out of prison! Right? '''No.''' His sentence ends and he learns that {{spoiler|Constance is dead, which not only takes away her, but any hope Oscar has of seeing his two boys again.}}

* In ''[[I Am Legend|The Last Man on Earth]]'', Robert finds a dog and is overjoyed at the sight of another living creature. He practically fawns over it, tends its wounds, comforts it when it's frightened, and tells it about the happy times they'll share together. Immediately afterwards [[Tear Jerker|he learns it's infected and is forced to drive a stake through it]]. [[Laughing Mad|He breaks]].

* ''[[Psycho Beach Party]]'': The murderer has been caught, {{spoiler|Chicklet's [[Split Personality]] has been cured}}, romantic stories are all tied off happily, all of that is now behind them as the all live hap-oh god. {{spoiler|It was all a dream as Chicklet is in a mental hospital getting realistically horrifying shock therapy}}... Happy?
