A Stock Phrase wherein a character acknowledges a past missed opportunity just as they are about to do what they were unable to (or chose not to) all those years ago. Often, the character spared a foe's life in the past and has since come to regret letting the Ungrateful Bastard live, in which case the phrase usually comes during a Sword over Head moment and may be accompanied by Prepare to Die. Bonus points if the character in question is a villain who foolishly killed one of his enemies in the Back Story but left their child, now The Hero, alive out of scorn, or a Mentor who couldn't bring himself to kill his beloved pupil, now the Big Bad, even when their Omnicidal Maniac tendencies became apparent. It can also be used by a henchman who served the Big Bad faithfully, despite any mistreatment only to be tossed aside once they got what they wanted, prompting said henchman to turn to the light side. Note that the phrase may be used in regards to plenty of things other than murder: a risk not taken, a path not followed, a highschool sweetheart not smooched - any of these may provoke the phrase years later, optionally accompanied by a wistful expression and/or a tear in the eye. This trope can also appear in more disguised forms, without having to invoke the Stock Phrase. "I have a certain phone call to make"/"there's a family waiting for me"/"I just realised I need to visit an old friend"/etc. are all stock sentences that stem directly from this concept. Loosely related to I Always Wanted to Say That. |

Lampshaded by The Simpsons. Marge writes a novel with the main cast as expies of herself, Homer and Flanders. Events play out in a way which mirrors the novel, resulting in Homer confronting Flanders on a cliff (in the book, the expies fall off a cliff in a fight over expy Marge). Homer cites the phrase. He asks Flanders how to be a good husband. Episode "Homer Goes to College" Episode "Treehouse of Horror VIII" |

Parodied in one Cyanide and Happiness strip, in which the phrase is spoken by a man named Procrastinator Pete while holding a gun. What's the thing he should have done a long time ago? File his taxes. He gives the gun to the other person so they can hold him at gunpoint and force him to do it. | |

In Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame: At the climax, Frollo finally reveals to Quasimodo that he killed his mother who was trying to save him (rather than abandoning him like Frollo had always told him). Frollo then delivers the famous line, "And now, I'm going to do what I should have done... TWENTY YEARS AGO!" and proceeds to throw poor Quasi off the cathedral balcony. Too bad he ended up dying instead of killing Quasi. | |

A Feast for Crows: In his last conversation with Jaime Lannister, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen laments that he should have done more to rein in his psychotic father, King Aerys before the latter started a Civil War by murdering the loved ones of several major nobles on a whim. Rhaegar infers to Jaime he has plans to make that right which he would discuss further when he returned from what ended up being the battle at which he was killed. | |

In Disney’s Tarzan, after the fight between Tarzan and Kerchak, the former is especially conflicted between his loyalty to his gorilla family and his newfound love in Jane. His mother, Kala, sighs and says, "Come with me. There's something I should've shown you long ago." She then takes him to the treehouse she found him in as a baby. | |

Red Dead Redemption 2: Happens twice in Chapter 6. Partway through the chapter, when Arthur Morgan kicks Herr Strauss out of the gang, the latter asks, "What are you doing?!" and the former replies, "Something I shoulda done a long time ago." During the climax, when John Marston hears of Micah Bell's treachery from Arthur while they are fleeing from the Pinkertons, John's furious reaction is: "We should have killed him months ago!" |

One event chain in Stellaris can appear after you settle on a new planet in which the pollen of a native plant is found to give your colonists a mild high, which is good for morale but bad for productivity. The player is then given a choice of whether to spend credits on stamping out the plant or letting things be. If the player leaves it alone, what follows is a long chain of events where things on the colony go haywire as most people get addicted and stop working, raising the threat of insurrection and even a team from the homeworld gets afflicted and stops obeying your orders. It finally culminates in rallying the non-afflicted population into retaking control and stamping out the pollen's effects at much greater cost than before — the only choice available at this point is simply "We should have done this a long time ago". | |

Amphibia: In the Season 1 finale "Reunion", Anne, who's let Sasha push her around for long time, musters up the courage to stand up to her after the latter threatens Sprig's life. In the Grand Finale "The Hardest Thing", when The Core demands Andrias (who by that point had come to a Heel Realization in the previous episode) to help them stop the girls from destroying them, Andrias finally had enough of serving his abusive master and calls them out in a Meaningful Echo of Anne's response above. |

StacheBros: In the Super Mario 3D Land episode of "Luigi Time!!!", after Luigi injures Mario (to the point of briefly killing him only to be revived with 1-UPs) for keeping a Nintendo 3DS to himself instead of giving it to him for his birthday, Mario gives it to Luigi, which makes him very excited. When Luigi sees that Mario has been playing Super Mario 3D Land on it, Luigi says "I should've killed my brother years ago! Wait...". | |
