Stock Phrase uttered in which our hero attacks a seemingly Innocent Bystander but discovers that the bystander was not what he appeared.
Goes as follows:
Can be disturbing when you realize that our hero had no problem killing someone and just happened to kill someone evil. Alternatively, sometimes the hero might have known the truth all along and just be yanking the chain of the person asking the question.
This may also be used in a Spot the Imposter scene when the hero's choice turns out to be correct.
However, it can also be used to show the hero's courage, as in: "How did you know that bomb wasn't real?" "I didn't." (It's also used as a punchline, where the hero retroactively freaks out when they realize how much danger they were in.)
Not to be confused with You Just Told Me, although the same phrase can be used for that purpose too. Also not to be confused with Accidental Truth or I Just Knew. See also I Have No Idea What I'm Doing, Achievements in Ignorance, Accidental Truth, and Sure, Let's Go with That. Often borders on Indy Ploy for charging in with no other plan.

In The Thick of It, Hugh Abbott accidentally sends an e-mail saying "Christ! What a cunt!" to a little girl using Terri's PC. Terri calls him out on this, claiming that she saw him use the PC. Hugh promptly admits that he did send the e-mail before Terri says that she was bluffing and she didn't see them. Hugh then says that he knew she didn't know and was only admitting because it was the right thing to do.

In a season 5 episode of Angel, Wesley shoots (repeatedly) someone who turns out to be a robot double, to dramatic rather than comedic effect. Fred tries to tell him that he must have known, deep down, but Wesley says that he was in fact absolutely sure he was killing the real person. That's what happens when you threaten to hurt Fred.
And who was it a robot double of? Wesley's father.

Happens in the CHiPs episode "Quarantine". A boy with a pipe bomb holds the station hostage before collapsing from a mystery ailment, resulting in the titular quarantine. The quarantine also prevents a bomb squad from entering to take care of the pipe bomb. While Grossman fruitlessly tries to get the bomb squad to come in, Harlan (who hasn't been told of the situation) casually walks in, picks up the bomb, and opens it. It turns out to be just a carrying case disguised as a pipe bomb. When Getraer asks him how he knew it wasn't a bomb, Harlan yelps and drops it.

Runaways:
An example played seriously occurred in the first volume: after a vampire (Topher) had taken out nearly the whole team, Karolina offered to let him bite her in exchange for letting Molly live, claiming she wanted to die. He bit her—and spontaneously combusted, since she's a solar-powered alien. When Alex asked her how she knew that would happen, she admitted that she had actually been trying to commit suicide by proxy.
Volume 3 #10: faced with a mutant cobra monster that's constantly respawning via eggs, Chase told Victor (a cyborg) to swallow the mutant cobra eggs in order to destroy the mother. Chase admits that he didn't know that it would work, but figured in the worst-case scenario they could rebuild Victor.

Power Rangers Dino Fury has this too. When Slyther confronts Amelia, he tells her she'll pay for infiltrating the Voids' base, an abandoned military facility called Area 62. When Amelia shows surprise that it was the villains' lair, having come there just to learn about her parents, Slyther is sheepish he let it slip.

The popular gamemode for the Half-Life 2 mod Garry's Mod titled Trouble in Terrorist Town revolves around trust/mistrust in a town full of terrorists, 1 in 5 of which are united traitors, seeking to kill the innocent terrorists, similar to the Mafia game people play on forums/IRC/at social gatherings. Occasionally someone gets shot for no real reason, is accidentally pushed off a high ledge, or get just plain unlucky and die suddenly when they're a traitor. The result is an upset traitor, and a confused, but happy group of innocent terrorists who have one less threat to deal with. Especially funny when playing with friends who you actually know, rather than random players.

G.I. Joe:
In Marvel's G.I. Joe comic, Sgt. Slaughter is confronted by two Gung-Hos. He punches one in the face, and the victim turns out to be the shapeshifter Zartan. When asked how he knew which one to punch...
The IDW reboot pulls it off without the double. Duke cold-clocks Snake-Eyes as soon as he appears during a mission off sheer suspicion, and it turns out to be Zartan. Duke says he didn't need to actually know: There was no way he could've hit the real Snake-Eyes.

In Baldur's Gate II, you could run into a small lair of mind flayer beneath the city of Athkatla, hiding in a secret room in the sewers. To open the door you require to keep in your inventory a key that is dropped in a distant unrelated place, with only a vague description about having an odor like that of the sewers and no hint about where to find its lock. After you clear the lair, you discover a note whose description states that it is written in an alien language that you can't read, but likely the mind flayers where up to some conspiracy, and your mere presence there surely disrupted their plans whatever they are.
If you have a rogue stone in your inventory you might activate a hidden portal in one of the houses in the bridge district. There is no hint in all the game about this place, it's a secret Brutal Bonus Level that can be accessed only by accident or by checking strategy guides. You will fight a high level party of the Twisted Rune, whose leader will question you about how you discovered their hideout and how it's pointless as you will not disrupt their (unexplained) plans. Whatever they were doing, you are forced to defeat them to leave.

In a Xiaolin Showdown episode where Kimiko is fighting an evil robot duplicate of herself, Omi jumps high in the air and takes one of the Kimikos out in one swipe. The defeated robot explodes, but, when asked about how he knew which one was which, Omi admits to having guessed. Not quite as extreme as the page description otherwise implies, since if he'd kicked the real Kimiko, she'd have probably just rubbed her kicked spot and been annoyed... not actually exploded.
This really surprised Clay and Rai though because up until that point, Omi knew ahead of time every trick thrown at him throughout the episode thanks to his Tiger Instinct, including Rai's constant attempts through Shen-Gong-Wu battles and card dealings. When he said that he "guessed" that time, they were aghast he didn't/couldn't use his Tiger Instinct.

In The Mechanic (1972), Bishop and Steve are in a hotel room, sharing a bottle of wine, when Bishop keels over. Steve tells Bishop that his glass had been coated with poison and he will be dead in a few minutes. Bishop asks Steve if he is doing this as payback for killing Steve's father. He is actually surprised, and says, "You killed him? I thought he just died."

Rick and Morty:
In one scene, Morty shoots Rick in the head. Then Rick shoots the villains to death while they're gloating and reveals Morty's gun had a label reading "FAKE GUN — SHOOT ME IN STANDOFF". Morty nervously chuckles and says "Good thing I saw that note!"
In "Total Rickall", Rick shoots Cousin Nicky, a memory-injecting parasite, killing it. When asked how he knew it was a parasite and not a real person, Rick says he guessed and had aimed at its shoulder for that reason.

By sheer coincidence, both sets of Rogues hold their heists in the same building, allowing Batman to catch both. When Riddler asks how Batman solved his riddle, Batman just tells him, "I didn't" and Riddler is so happy to think he stumped Batman that he goes to jail singing a jaunty tune.

Unforgiven actively subverts a scene from The Outlaw Josey Wales in which Wales survives an assault from a dangerous posse, then explains how he carefully chose which member he had to shoot first based on a Sherlock Scan of which one was the most dangerous. In Unforgiven, after Munny survives a similar encounter, he just shrugs and says that he got lucky when asked.

This speech follows pretty much every victory of Irresponsible Captain Tylor. It comes to the point where his second-in-command begins to anticipate the "I didn't" reply.

The player gets an opportunity to have his own How Did You Know? moment in the (chronological) beginning of Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne. No game mechanic prevents you from killing an innocent bystander at a crime site, a cleaner. In fact, you will be rewarded for doing so by him not leading you into an ambush.
Max himself gets one when he shoots his partner when she confronts him and his fugitive love interest. Only later does he actually find any evidence that she was going to kill them both by order of the big bad. Max, ever the melodramatic sort, states that thinking for even a moment that the future revelation justified his prior actions damns him just that much more.

Wizards of Waverly Place: In the episode "Wizard for a Day", Alex gives Jerry Merlin's hat as a birthday present which can grant wishes for one day, much to Justin's jealousy. She later makes an even bigger present by using the hat to transform the Substation into her father's childhood astronaut-themed milkshake restaurant which completely changes the family business. Unfortunately, the reopening of the milkshake restaurant attracts the attention of Human Aliens who want to steal the milkshake machine for themselves. Justin (unintentionally) saves the day by using one of the aliens' laser guns to shoot at Merlin's hat, transforming the milkshake restaurant back into Waverly Substation and forcing the aliens to retreat.

Red Dwarf: In "Can of Worms", Lister, Rimmer, and Kryten are hunting shapeshifters when they are approached by the Cat. Lister (who is temporarily emotionless) blows him away without a second thought, revealing him to be a polymorph. Rimmer asks how he knew he wasn't the Cat, and Lister calmly replies "I didn't." It should be noted that unlike other examples, this was a deliberate act. Lister had his emotions drained to make him immune to the polymorphs, so he literally didn't care who he shot.

He didn't, and instead waited until the room was clear so that he could attempt suicide.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In "Soldiers of the Empire", when Worf realizes that General Martok is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of his imprisonment, he challenges Martok's leadership in the Klingon tradition, then lets him win the subsequent knife fight. Reinvigorated, Martok rallies to his command and saves the day. Later, knowing that Worf lowered his guard deliberately, Martok asks how Worf knew he wouldn't kill him. Worf replies simply, "I didn't". Realizing that Worf was literally willing to die to bring Martok out of his slump, the general is so impressed that he officially adopts Worf as a member of his House.

Alien³: A bit before the climax, Dillon off-handedly asks about Ripley having slept with Dr. Clemens in a way that implies he already knew. When she replies that he's obviously been a peeping tom, he says that he wasn't, but her response did confirm his suspicions.

The Legend of Vox Machina: After rescuing Percy from being possessed by Orthax, Scanlan confiscates his pepperbox. Percy claims that Orthax is gone and the gun is safe to use, and Scanlan moves to hand it back... then pitches it into a vat of acid. As Percy is yelling at him, Orthax suddenly bursts out of the acid and screeches before melting into sludge. When Keyleth asks how Scanlan knew Orthax was still in the pepperbox, Scanlan just shrugs and replies "Total guess."

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide has Cookie as the "new kid" posing as a British person to seem more interesting to his new class. Turns out the class already has a British kid, who calls him out on it. Cue Cookie stammering and then trying to save face by sputtering miscellaneous stereotypical and nonsensical Britishisms. Then it turns out he was faking as well; he's from Ohio, not Britain. Cookie asks "Then how did you know I wasn't British?" The response? "I didn't. I just took a stab and you caved."

How L manages to pinpoint Kira's location in Death Note. L only had a few assumptions about Kira: that he can kill people without being present, that he won't tolerate being called out, and that the earliest death possibly related to Kira happened in Kanto, Japan. Thus, L decides to fake a worldwide Interpol announcement, with a criminal posing as L and taunting Kira. The announcement would only be broadcast in one place at a time, so that when the criminal is killed (presumably by a pissed-off Kira), L would know where he lives in. Not only was the plan almost instantly successful, but L was positively baffled at how flawlessly it went, beside himself at having already caught Kira in what was initially just supposed to be a test run.

A variant in Bugs happens when the team's weapons expert is wired with a bomb to force him to act as a sniper to remove someone for the Big Bad. While the tech specialist is trying to disarm it the Big Bad realizes he's not going to make the shot and moves to kill the target himself. The weapons expert pulls away from the tech and kills the Big Bad, then the tech removes a chip from the bomb and it deactivates. Cue the tech being lambasted for taking so long and replying that she just removed anything, choosing probably being blown to bits over certainly being.

NCIS:
In the episode "Chimera", an incident involving a top-secret naval ship and Russian pirates ends with a missile blowing up the ship and killing the pirates after Team Gibbs has escaped. As the team wonders how the U.S. Navy knew that they'd gotten off the ship, Gibbs says, "I don't think they did."
In "Baltimore", Tony flashbacks to when he learned his partner was dirty. When Gibbs shows up, Tony name-drops the first half of this trope while Gibbs does the second, adding on, "I had a hunch."

In Hunters of Justice, Team RWBY, Qrow, and Saturn Girl are working with Jonah Hex to stop a train robbery being pulled by the time traveling thief Chronos. While riding on horseback among Chronos' Mooks, Ruby can't take the shot because she doesn't want to kill people if it can be avoided. Jonah wastes no time and shoots a mook in the head. The spray of oil reveals that they're Mecha-Mooks dressed in period clothing. Being mindless drones, the heroes have no reservations in tearing them apart. When Qrow asks if Hex knew they weren't living people, the Combat Pragmatist simply says he didn't.

Family Matters: The episode "Boom!" has Carl stepping onto a treadmill rigged up with a bomb by a criminal his boss previously imprisoned, which will go off the moment the rider steps off. The Bomb Squad is too scared to show up, and after Carl and his boss trade places to keep the treadmill active so the bomb doesn't go off, they have no choice but to disarm it themselves. Three wires were in there: red, blue and yellow. Carl determined it was the yellow wire that had to be cut, and when the two officers are successful, his boss asks him how he knew which wire to pull. Carl's response? "I didn't; I guessed!".

In the Daredevil (2015) episode "In the Blood", Karen Page goes to an auction where Union Allied assets are being auctioned off. While she's there, Ben Urich sits down behind her and tells her to avoid looking suspicious by bidding on some of the smaller lots. When they reconvene at the diner that they'd had a meeting at earlier in the day, Karen asks Ben how he knew she was there, and Ben replies, "I wasn't looking for you."

The Bureau of Magical Things: After Professor Maxwell is defeated by a possessed suit of armor, he tells Kyra to get the sword that belonged to the person who used to wear the armor. Kyra presents the sword to the armor, completing the spirit's Unfinished Business and allowing it to move on to the afterlife. In the ensuing discussion, Kyra claims that Professor Maxwell obviously knew this would happen, otherwise he wouldn't have told her to get the sword. Professor Maxwell chimes in to point out that he meant for Kyra to flee with the sword, and he, like everyone else, was expecting the possessed armor to skewer her once it had the sword back.

In Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: Shattered Grid, Lord Drakkon sneaks into Corinth and confronts Dr. K while his forces are attempting to invade. During the confrontation, he makes the mistake of hitting K's Berserk Button over the creation of the Venjix Virus, causing Dr. K to haul out a cannon and blast Drakkon, revealing him to be a robot double. When the other Ranger Series Operators arrive, Scott asks how she knew it wasn't a real person. The murderous look on her face suggests she didn't and she didn't care.

Super Sentai/Power Rangers:
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, "The Amazing Silver Man": The crew accidentally stumbles upon an Action Commander planting a bomb to blow up the city and demands to know how they knew his plans. They didn't, he just told them.
Power Rangers Jungle Fury has this in "Arise the Crystal Eyes"; after Red Ranger Casey pulls a Big Damn Heroes moment to save the other rangers from Grizzaka, a very powerful Starscream that had successfully taken the post of Big Bad at that point. Casey asks White Ranger Dom for his Rhino Morpher and attempts to merge it with his own weapon, succeeding flashily.
Power Rangers Dino Fury has this too. When Slyther confronts Amelia, he tells her she'll pay for infiltrating the Voids' base, an abandoned military facility called Area 62. When Amelia shows surprise that it was the villains' lair, having come there just to learn about her parents, Slyther is sheepish he let it slip.

Human Revolution has a similar case where one way to complete a sidequest is to knock out or kill two drug dealers, but gives a special response if you had done so already after being given their names (unlike Dowd, though, Tindall just thinks you're overly violent).

In Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Blackbeard forces Jack to play a variant of Russian Roulette with four unloaded pistols and two loaded ones, and Angelica (his daughter, Jack's love interest) as the target. When Jack takes the option to jump instead, Angelica asks her father if he knew which guns were loaded. He (unconvincingly) says he did, but considering his later actions, there's no reason to believe that he would care about putting his daughter in danger.

Fullmetal Alchemist
In an OVA from Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), Ed and Al get caught up with the Homunculi after Envy shapeshifts to pretend to be a captured Winry. They escape, chaos ensues, and Edward ends up taking out Envy who's disguised as Roy Mustang.
Similarly, in Brotherhood, Riza Hawkeye corners Roy when they're alone, and she points a gun to his head. Roy calls her "Lieutenant" during the exchange, but she claims that the real Roy calls her by her first name whenever they are alone. As she might have guessed, this Roy turns out to Envy, but...

Robin of Sherwood in "The Sheriff of Nottingham", the new Sheriff of Nottingham captures Robin Hood and all the outlaws, except for Nasir, who had gone to have a duel to the death with Sarak, the new Sheriff's Saracen servant who Nasir had some unfinished business with from way before the show began. (Sarak, conveniently, usually wore clothes that hid his face.) The outlaws are about to be executed when a figure wearing Sarak's clothes walks in. The Sheriff offers Robin and the outlaws a chance to go free if he manages to kill Sarak. Robin takes the crossbow but hesitates to take action, while the Sheriff urges Sarak to kill Robin. "Sarak" then throws a sword into the Sheriff's stomach and takes the veil off his face, revealing himself as Nasir. Later on...

In the second half of the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic pilot, "Elements of Harmony", the main characters are attacked by a manticore. They fight back until Fluttershy calls for them to stop, much to their surprise. She approaches the monster, nuzzles it, and the manticore reveals the source of its fury: a thorn in its paw. After she removes the thorn, the manticore lets them pass. Twilight Sparkle asks how Fluttershy knew about the thorn, and the pegasus replies that she didn't, but assumed the manticore just needed to be shown kindness.

Doctor Who:
"Amy's Choice": The Doctor, Amy, and Rory are trapped between two dream worlds, and have to work out which is the dream and which is reality so that they can free themselves by dying in the dream world. After Rory dies, Amy decides to kill herself and the Doctor in that world. They all wake up in reality, and Rory asks Amy how she knew the world he died in was the dream world...
Played for Laughs in "The Unicorn and the Wasp". Agatha Christie questions every visitor separately. Colonel Curbishley admits immediately that he only faked being paralyzed and is not actually bound to a wheelchair. Angrily he asks her how she found out, she replies, visibly embarrassed: "Uhm, I didn't actually, I was gonna say that you are absolutely innocent"
"Spyfall": When his house is attacked by mysterious glowing aliens with the power of intangibility, former MI6 analyst O manages to hold them off with his security systems. This trope is his response when asked how he knew that would work. It turns out later that this is a lie.

A similar example in Deus Ex. If you kill a doorkeeper at the gates of the cemetery housing Dowd's crypt on sight, the guy will later turn out to be a spy, and Dowd will even praise you for being just the right type of trigger-happy paranoiac they need.
Human Revolution has a similar case where one way to complete a sidequest is to knock out or kill two drug dealers, but gives a special response if you had done so already after being given their names (unlike Dowd, though, Tindall just thinks you're overly violent).

On the way to the Hunter Exam in Hunter × Hunter, Kurapika hits Leorio in the face with his nunchucks. "Leorio" then transforms into a monstrous creature and asks how Kurapika knew he was an imposter. Kurapika responds that he didn't know, he just wanted to hit Leorio in the face. (Because Kurapika assumed that Leorio had abandoned the wounded man he had promised to take care of.)

A Sailor Moon SuperS special starring Haruka and Michiru has Sailor Neptune fighting a living puppet and his master at a hotel, and the puppet holding an ill Haruka hostage. Neptune is about to save her by destroying the puppet's source of power but warns her that doing so will cause the shadows of every person on earth to kill their hosts. But Neptune destroys the power source anyway and sarcastically asks if "the shadows have begun to run rampant yet". The puppet asks how she knew he was lying, but it turns out she didn't. The bad guys call her out on risking the lives of other people, but Neptune simply responds, "A world without Haruka isn't worth saving."

In Papillon (1973), the titular character takes shelter in a leper colony after his escape and is invited to share a cigar by their leader. Despite his fear of catching the disease, Papillon does so. There's a moment of silence from the leader (who clearly expected him to refuse) before he asks how Papillon knew he had dry leprosy, which isn't contagious. When Papillon replies that he didn't know, it breaks the ice between the two men.

Played very cleverly during the second arc of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: All the little kids in the orphanage are depressed about how Martha and others have been taken by the Earthbound Gods. Yusei sounds like he knows about No Ontological Inertia when he assures them that when they defeat the villains, everyone will return and be all right. After the kids leave, his adult and teenage allies ask him how he knows that. He sheepishly admits he doesn't — he just said it to cheer them up. To say they're not too happy is an understatement. Fortunately for everyone, it does turn out to be true.

An extreme example occurred in Saiyuki when the entire group sans Gojyo decide that the next time they see Gojyo, they'd beat the crap out of him for leaving their group and throwing off the dynamic. They meet an evil doppelganger Gojyo and naturally start to beat the crap out of it. When they discover it isn't Gojyo, they decide to pretend it is and proceed to tear it to shreds as a catharsis. Especially funny because the guy disguised as Gojyo fully expected them to pull the "How can I bring myself to fight my friend?" act... Ehehe.

Implied in Watchmen (2019) when Laurie Blake shoots a vigilante in the back. A colleague asks her afterward how she knew he was wearing body armor that protected him from the bullet; Laurie walks away without answering.

In Jon Sable, Freelance #5, Sable and a courier named Cynthia are fighting at the ends of ropes dangling from a hot air balloon, and the two ropes have gotten twisted around each other. The balloon is losing altitude and they need to lose weight so Sable's ally Milo cuts one of the ropes, sending Cynthia plunging to her death. After they have landed, Jon asks Milo how he knew which rope to cut and Milo walks away, without answering.

An issue of Fantastic Four has a future version of Namor and Black Panther coming to the present for some reason or another. It's revealed that Reed's devotion to his work would eventually drive his family away from him, culminating in Susan running off with Namor (as she's been on the verge of doing before). Reed takes this news calmly, then shoots Namor in the head. In this case, he suspected, but did not know for certain, that this was a plot orchestrated by Doom, and that the future Namor and Black Panther were robot impostors. Reed based his decision on "well I can't believe Doom solved that external power supply problem for that type of force field so Namor and Black Panther must be androids holding the power supplies." He was so certain Doom couldn't have solved a problem he couldn't even from decades into the future that he was willing to risk killing what was possibly the real Namor to prove himself right. Presumably, he shot the Namor android because he'd care a lot less about Namor dying if he turned out to be wrong.

A variant occurs in one episode of Voltron: Legendary Defender, Lance and Keith are in a control room in the Balmera, trying to close the hatch. At one point, Keith puts his hand on the handprint and the hatch closes. Lance asks him how he did, and Keith responds that he doesn't know.

Invoked in The Batman where Batman punches an old lady florist (actually a Plant Person guarding Poison Ivy's lair). Batgirl is surprised Batman knew she was a fake. Batman is silent as usual as Batgirl continues questioning.

On YuYu Hakusho Yusuke is faced with a Spot the Imposter predicament and is told he has to punch the culprit as hard as he can to expose him. He narrows it down to two, and correctly chooses Kuwabara, but only did so because punching Kuwabara would make him feel the least bad if he was wrong.
