You Know What You Did: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[The Muppet Show Comic Book]]'', Miss Piggy believes Kermit is seeing someone else, based on a [[Cryptic Conversation|cryptic]] and [[Phony Psychic|entirely fraudulent]] prophecy.

'''Kermit''': That doesn't make any kind of sense! }}

* A nonromantic variant gets played with in one issue of ''[[Catwoman]].'' The Trickster phones in a tip to the media that gives away her identity as mayoral candidate Selina Kyle, and she flies into a rage at him for outing her--and then it turns out that it was meant as a generic political smear campaign and the identification was a coincidence. {{spoiler|And then he legitimately figures it out.}}

'''Trickster''': Can I get a category here? It would really help me defend myself if I knew what it was that you were going nuclear over... }}

 

* Subverted in ''[[Veronica Mars]]'', when the [[Alpha Bitch]] claims that she and Logan had had sex. True to trope, Veronica believed this unquestioningly, and confronted Logan about it. They had.

* Tim and Marsha get into one of these in the penultimate episode of ''[[Spaced]]''. Marsha, who believes Tim and Daisy to be a couple, has seen Tim kissing his new girlfriend and confronts him about cheating on Daisy, threatening to inform her. Tim, however, does not know this, and because Marsha does not actually explicitly say anything about what she's seen, believes that Marsha is in fact referring to a birthday cake Tim has arranged for Daisy as a nice birthday surprise. [[Hilarity Ensues|Complications, naturally, ensue]].

'''Marsha:''' You ''bastard''. }}

* Averted in ''Chinese Paladin 3''. When the heroine, who usually has some justification for her suspicions, angrily confronts the hero with this trope, he very sensibly replies "No, what did I do?" and explains what was going on. It's almost beautiful.
