A character is (sometimes, quite specifically) warned of the horrible things that can happen if they do Action A. They blow off the warnings and the evidence to back it up. After the terrible things happen, The Cassandra then informs them they have no-one to blame but themselves. Depending on Alice's personality, the tone of the work and what the consequences are, she might be smug about being right or angry that Bob didn't listen, among other reactions. That statement, whether or not it uses the Stock Phrase "I Warned You" or "I Told You So" is this trope, provided the warning took place. If it did not, due to Poor Communication Kills, Not Now, Kiddo, or the warning not reaching its intended recipient, but the Stock Phrase is dropped anyway, the trope has been inverted, not played straight. Generally — though not always — Played for Drama if played straight. The victim may ask The Cassandra for help in solving whatever problem they caused, much to the Cassandra's aggravation. The Cassandra may also say Screw This, I'm Outta Here and flat-out refuse to help the victim with their predicament, particularly if they've been pushed to the breaking point by the victim insulting their warnings or just the victim's sheer stupidity. Even the Only Sane Man can only take so much abuse. If Played for Laughs, expect The Cassandra to be an exaggeratively smug or jerkish in using this trope (a likely consistent trait that lent to no-one listening to them in the first place) and at least one indignant victim to try and silence them (usually by yelling a bitter "Oh, Shut Up!"). Due to often gloat-heavy context of this trope (and the likely two-way arrogance that caused them to be ignored in the first place), the previously dismissive characters at the very least will often be a Sore Loser and only admit The Cassandra was right and apologise very begrudgingly at best (unless they need to beg them to fix the problem caused by this). Subverted, The Cassandra has every opportunity to say "I warned you!", but doesn't even bat an eye because they know they won't be believed. This trope is often used after one of the various Threatening Tropes appears only to be ignored, or after a seemingly-mundane threat that is taken lightly turns out to be Not Hyperbole. Contrast Poor Communication Kills, Not Now, Kiddo, where the information doesn't reach its intended destination. Compare Cassandra Truth and Ignored Expert. Overlaps with Can't You Read the Sign? if the person who originally posted the sign points it out to the characters who got into trouble by ignoring it. |

In Hogyoku ex Machina, when Ishida warns Mayuri (not very hard, mind you) that it wouldn't be a good idea to have Ichigo attempt to place his reiatsu into a rare and valuable crystal because he's clumsy, Mayuri blows him off. Then Ichigo (having a massive amount of reiatsu and no control over it, hence "clumsy") makes the crystal explode. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW): When first introduced, Shadow was convinced that Eggman, at the time suffering amnesia and going under the moniker Mr. Tinker, was too much of a liability to keep alive and wanted to take him out right then and there lest he regain his memories. Sonic convinces him otherwise, but ultimately his fears were justified as later Eggman does indeed regain his memories thanks to Dr. Starline and Metal Sonic and continues his evil actions, leading to the Metal Virus outbreak. Shadow does not miss the chance to remind Sonic of his warning the next time they meet. The Chaotix, who found Eggman first, also had misgivings about sparing Eggman, amnesiac or not. Their fears are also proven correct when Eggman returns, and Vector doesn't hesitate to remind Sonic of their warning. Espio is even harsher about it after losing Vector and Charmy to the Metal Virus, angrily condemning Sonic for his poor judgment. After the Zeti gain control of the Zombots thanks to Starline, Eggman, as part of his truce with the heroes, suggests using Starline's Warp Topaz and the Chaos Emeralds to get rid of the Metal Virus for good. Starline objects, fearing exposure to the Chaos Emeralds' power could overtax the Warp Topaz with disastrous results, but is ignored and given the boot. However, Starline later turns out to have been half-right: although Super Sonic and Super Silver destroy the Metal Virus, they overload the Warp Topaz in the process and it explodes before they can dispose of it. While the outcome isn't as bad as Starline feared, Sonic goes M.I.A. in the aftermath. |

Sunrider 4: The Captain's Return: During the battle of the World Fountain, Admiral Kuushana notices that Kayto Shields is trying to break through PACT's lines to reach the Fountain itself and realizes that something isn't right. She orders the fleet to move away from the Fountain, but Veniczar Fontana countermands the order, not willing to let this chance to finally bring down Shields and the Prototypes slip away. Then Kayto fires a graviton torpedo into the Fountain, triggering a chain reaction which transforms it into a new star and annihilates half of Fontana's navy. When Kuushana and Fontana reconvene in the aftermath, she archly reminds him that she told him to move the fleet away. | |

At the beginning of Madame Butterfly, Sharpless warns Pinkerton unsuccessfully against taking advantage of the naivety of the titular heroine and marrying her the Japanese way meaning he can undo his vow by leaving her. When Pinkerton comes back three years later with a new American wife to learn that Butterfly has been waiting for him all this time, Sharpless bitterly reminds him of his words. | |

Aftermath of the Games: In Intergration, Luna warned Celestia about keeping Twilight Locked Out of the Loop regarding the existence of the secret organizations S.M.I.L.E. and F.R.O.W.N., predicting that she'd inevitably find out and be upset at having this hidden from her. Sure enough, Twilight doesn't take the revelation well, and Celestia notes that she expects Luna to greet her with a smug smile and an "I told you so" once she returns to Canterlot. | |

Bleach: Mayuri was the first to realize that Quincies would eventually attack Soul Society again after Uryu's infiltration, but Yamamoto dismissed him as paranoid and thus did nothing to prepare. Come the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, Yhwach and the Vandenreich attack Soul Society just as Mayuri feared, and when he tries to blame Mayuri for the mess, Mayuri quickly turns it around by reminding Yamamoto that he warned him that such a thing would happen, stating outright that the current situation is entirely Yamamoto's fault for not listening to him in the first place. | |

Angel: Hinted at, but ultimately subverted in the episode "Disharmony"; Cordelia insists on giving Harmony a fair chance despite her being a complete pest to the team; Angel explicitly tells her that, as a vampire, Harmony will inevitably turn on her, but Cordelia blows him off. Angel is proven right when Harmony sells the Angel Investigations team out to the vampire cult she was supposed to help them investigate. Cordelia allows Harmony to leave out of respect for their former friendship, and Angel approaches, apparently intending to give her one of these, but Cordelia explicitly tells him not to say a word. | |

The Simpsons: "Lisa the Vegetarian", after Lisa has twice questioned the use of meat and her teacher/Lunchlady pressed the "Independent thought alarm." From "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bangalore": In "Trash of the Titans", Springfield's incumbent sanitation commissioner Ray Patterson loses his reelection to Homer. True to Patterson's warnings, Homer proves extremely incompetent, first spending a year's budget in one month, which he recoups by having other cities cramming their trash beneath Springfield, to the point that it erupts all around, leaving Springfield in shambles. Homer is removed and Mayor Quimby calls back Patterson, who has this to say: In "Simpson Tide", after Homer sails a nuclear submarine into Russian waters, the Springfield News' report on the matter speculating Homer is a communist sympathiser uses as its stock photo of Homer a picture of him dressed and dancing like a Russian Cossack, holding a bottle of vodka in front of St. Basil's Cathedral. Lisa's deadpan response is "I told him that photo would come back to haunt him." |

The Dragon and the Butterfly: Astrid's first plan to get Hiccup to come back to Berk is to either kidnap him and take him by force or kidnap Mirabel and use her as bait and use her to lure him to Berk. Fishlegs is horrified and (after telling her how horrible such a plan is) warns her that it wouldn't work, because both Hiccup and Mirabel have a Night Fury and an enormous family of magical people ready to defend them at a moment's notice. He's proven right when, after Dolores overheard this plan, she, Isabella, and Alma come and capture Astrid and Fishlegs. | |

They don't believe him thinking he's being superstitious. Of course Imhotep gets loose and starts draining the life of those that opened the casket. One of the Americans manages to escape but with his eyes and tongue taken. As the surviving American rests at a hotel, Beni (now working for Imhotep) tricks said American into meeting with a healer who is really Imhotep in disguise. Before the American is drained, Beni tells him that he did warn them not to open the tomb. Earlier, Rick is wary of Evie reading the Book of the Dead's incantations, but Evie dismisses him, stating that "no harm could come from reading a book." Evie ends up awakening Imhotep as a result, and when they escape, Rick explicitly states, "Didn't I tell you not to play around with that thing?" Gets a Call-Back in the sequel, when Rick and Evie are exploring a tomb and find a treasure chest. Sure enough, opening it sets off a trap that nearly kills them. |

The Cat in the Hat movie narrowly averts but still plays with this trope when the Fish appears just as the Cat himself has finally been sent away by the understandably angry Sally and Conrad for completely destroying their home, the Fish having earlier warned them about trusting the Cat. However just before he can go through with saying anything snide, he quickly backs off and leaves the kids alone. | |

Community: Jeff has this variation in the season one episode "Physical Education". In keeping with Britta's rather smug-yet-misguided conviction of the inherent moral superiority of all women (particularly herself), in the Halloween story she tells in "Horror in Seven Spooky Steps" her Author Avatar feels the need to point this out to the avatar she creates for Jeff. While he's in the middle of being stabbed to death by a psycho with a hook for a hand. |

RWBY: In Volume 4, Qrow has a tense meeting with his twin sister Raven, where they discuss what happened in Volume 3 and try to figure out what intel the other is keeping from them. Raven accuses Qrow and Ozpin of ignoring her warnings about the danger they were in and the feasibility of Ozpin's plans, but Qrow refuses to play along. In Volume 5, Cinder wants Raven to open the Vault to the Relic of Knowledge, but Raven demands she kill Qrow first. Cinder agrees, primarily because it will give her a shot at vengeance against Ruby Rose (Qrow's niece), but Watts warns that this agreement may cost them the Relic. Sure enough, the debacle ends with poorly for Cinder, which Watts throws in her face during Volume 8. In Volume 8, an inversion occurs. In Volume 6, Ozpin warns the heroes that he keeps his secrets because he's so used to the betrayal and fallout that occurs when allies learn the Awful Truth about the Big Bad. They don't believe him, but instantly turn on him when they learn the truth. They later struggle with the exact same issue Ozpin had during the Atlas Arc, over whether to tell Ironwood and he eventually turns on them they same way they turned on Ozpin. When the heroes and Ozpin reconcile in Volume 8, Ozpin doesn't tell them he warned them, he simply apologises for not trusting them; it's the heroes who say that they now understand what he was trying to tell them about how risky trust can be. |

Calvin and Hobbes: In one strip, Calvin imagines himself as a volcano spewing lava into the air. The last panel reveals that Calvin is frantically gulping down water after having drunk a bottle of chili sauce, while being scolded by his parents. In one Sunday strip, Calvin and Hobbes are about to sled down a snowy hill, but Hobbes secretly jumps off at the last second. Hobbes watches Calvin's disastrous journey with his expression changing between horror and amazement, until eventually an angry stick-and-snow covered Calvin crawls back into frame. |

In The Dresden Files, one of the conditions Harry sets when offering Molly apprenticeship is that she must obey his orders: she can question them, but she can't disobey. He tells her to stay out of a particularly dangerous situation, but she ignores him and sneaks along. Dresden, being an accomplished wizard, figures out that she did sonote He throws his staff in the back seat and hits her by accident while she's invisible, and gets so mad that she's not following instructions (in addition to being ramped up on anger from the situation already), that he torments her with a tiny but incredibly hot ball of fire that slowly inches towards her, taunting her to stop it with her power. She is completely unable to do so, and he's utters the trope line, pointing out that it's dangerous out in the world and she's not ready for it. He contemplates letting the ball of fire incinerate her for a few dangerous seconds before he's called out on it by Murphy. | |

When Quaid resists his own plan to reformat his mind and risks destroying his power, Richter smugly asks whether he wants to reconsider: | |

Sesame Street: Big Bird goes into a bit of this when the adults meet Snuffy for the first time and realize he had been telling the truth all these years about his existence, but in this case, Big Bird isn't exactly gloating as he is just glad to find he was actually right. In one episode, Bob is throwing a grownup party and Big Bird is upset he cannot attend, so he tells this to Snuffy and laments all the supposed fun he's missing. Snuffy warns Big Bird that grownup parties are not as fun as he suspects; when Bob lets him come anyway, Big Bird discovers Snuffy was right and the party just consists of the grownups mingling and eating together, which he finds completely boring. Big Bird goes back to Snuffy who says this word-per-word to him, and he apologizes for not listening to him. |

The Karma of Lies: Plagg spends much of the story repeatedly warning Adrien that the world doesn't work the way he thinks it does, and that he needs to make amends while he still has the chance. Adrien repeatedly blows him off, insisting he hasn't done anything wrong. Eventually, Plagg gives up; when Adrien notices, Plagg states that his karma is already set in stone at this point. On a related note, Ladybug constantly entreated Chat Noir to take their duty to Paris more seriously and stop goofing around, as well as asking him to stop harassing her about hooking up, as she wasn't interested. This finally culminates in her giving him a "The Reason You Suck" Speech during a live interview post-Final Battle. When Adrien complains that he didn't realize how she felt and that she should have made her feelings clearer beforehand, Plagg points out that she did tell him, constantly and consistently. It's not her fault that he never listened. Marinette tried to warn her classmates about Lila, only to get brushed off. Once the truth comes out and they find themselves dealing with the fallout, Marinette makes clear that it's not her responsibility to save them from the consequences. |

Infinity Train: Blossoming Trail: Mr. Bradbury, Chloe's English teacher, saw how troubled she was and reached out to her father, advising Professor Cerise to get her professional counseling. The Professor ignored this and decided to just place Chloe in his Institute to be supervised without considering that Chloe might want to do something for a bit of catharsis. Much later, after things have seriously gone downhill for the whole family and Vermillion City in general, Mr. Bradbury sends him the number for the same counselor he'd recommended before — though this time, he's recommending them for Parker. The Professor screams in Angrish at the reminder. Eventually, Professor Cerise asks him to stop doing this; he's far from the only one criticizing how he handled his daughter, and the repeated snide remarks are making it seem as though he's more interested in rubbing salt in the wound than anything else. |

Midway through Chapter 5 of Disgaea 5, the group runs into, and eliminates, zombified rabbits, presumed to be from Toto Bunny, and Majorita is known to be on the Netherworld they're currently investigating. Killia advises Usalia to back down, lest she "witness something you don't want to see". His guess as to what that is: Usalia's zombified parents. Mercifully, he doesn't chide her, at all, when the inevitable happens by chapter's end. | |

A serious example comes up in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Albus Dumbledore constantly warns Cornelius Fudge of Voldemort's return, and Fudge dismisses it despite overwhelming evidence, instead leading a smear campaign against Dumbledore and Harry. When Voldemort shows up in person at the Ministry, Dumbledore wastes no time in telling Fudge to his face that he wasted the entire year chasing around the wrong man despite his constant warnings. | |

In Origins, a Mass Effect/Star Wars/Borderlands/Halo Massive Multiplayer Crossover, Admiral Grayson tells off the rest of the Citadel Council for blindly trusting Sarah and possibly the Dark Side of the Force in what seems to be an attempt to make up for their Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering and Head-in-the-Sand Management tendencies. He warned them offscreen about how dangerous this set of powers (and those who wield it) have been in his own galaxy, but they didn't listen to someone who probably knows more about this than they do. That a graphic scene of Mind Rape/Cold-Blooded Torture/Drunk on the Dark Side just occurred only serves to buttress his arguments. | |

If Wishes Were Ponies: After leaving Harry with the Dursleys, Dumbledore relied on a protection spell that would prevent anyone from trying to remove Harry from the Dursleys' custody plus several monitors that told him about Harry's physical and mental state. Minerva told him numerous times that it would be much better if he actually went and checked on Harry himself instead of watching the monitors, but Dumbledore kept insisting that the monitors couldn't be wrong. He learns later that he accidentally shot himself in the foot, as the Durselys were abusing Harry, but the protection spell canceled out the monitors (as Dumbledore would have removed Harry from their custody if he'd known about the abuse) and caused them to always say that Harry was fine. Once Minerva learns about this, she's furious with Albus and spends the next several weeks hexing him behind his back for not checking on Harry. | |

In Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Asajj Ventress and two of the Nightsisters attempt to assassinate Count Dooku. Ventress warns the Nightsisters not to underestimate Dooku, but they assume they have it in the bag because Dooku is old and in their culture, men are inferior to women. Dooku defeats and throws the three out of his home. The Nightsisters express surprise at how strong he was, and Ventress points out that she warned them. | |

The Order of the Stick: "Nuthin' but Net": Elan, Durkon and Daigo are caught in a trap left by island orcs. Durkon and Daigo get out and try to leave, despite Elan begging them to return under the net... Cue the orcs immediately catching Durkon and Daigo and beating them up. Subverted in "Goliath Falls": During Book 5, Durkon was killed and turned into a vampire. However, only Belkar suspects that "Durkon Thundershield" is just pretending to be their lovable dwarf cleric as part of a scheme, but everyone else thinks the halfling is just stirring up trouble like he did with Miko in Azure City. However, when Roy realizes the truth himself, he doesn't give Belkar the satisfaction of an "I told you so"; he freely admits that Belkar was right, he was wrong, but they need to move because "Durkon" is planning to end the world. |

Ethan Carter The Third was the only wrestler to go straight to the source and warn TNA President Dixie Carter about the GFW partnership really being an invasion (no one likes Dixie, but Ethan is her nephew, you see). Dixie, trying to turn a new leaf, dismissed him, believing it would make up for the disgrace they brought the company through her previous nepotism. In the end, Ethan did ultimately ensure Jeff Jarrett and the GFW group were ran out, but not before reminding auntie it was her fault for not listening. | |

In the No Mercy ending of Undertale, the Final Boss, Sans the skeleton, says this verbatim after the final blow is struck but before he dies, after cryptically spending the fight warning you against continuing. If you proceed through the ending anyway, you'll find he was entirely right, as the world is destroyed by your player character and the only way to get it back is to sell your SOUL and permanently lose the ability to get the best ending. | |

Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade has a minor case in the Ilia route. Bishop Martel orders Niime to use a spell tome to make it rain and flood the rivers to push back the Lycian Army. Niime warns him that the effects of the tome may be unpredictable and could potentially ruin his plans, but he insists. The spell instead freezes the rivers, allowing Roy's army to advance faster, and when Niime points out that she repeatedly warned him that she had no idea what would happen, Martel angrily orders her to be thrown into the dungeon. | |

In the next chapter, Tsukune approaches them, hoping to talk things over; unfortunately, Dark is done talking and promptly attacks him, explicitly telling Tsukune that he should have heeded his warnings and stayed away: In Act VI, Ceal has Jenner restrained using Xarai, going on about how he's making a mistake targeting him and his friends and how they're the ones who can stop the real evil monsters out there. The minute Ceal releases him, Jenner panics and tries to shoot him, only for Xarai to restrain him again and toss him out a window into the jaws of a dragon sent by Babylon: |

Finally, in the wrap-up mini-series, he unleashes a wormhole weapon, which appears to function like a black hole that doubles in size every few minutes. It's only then that everyone finally realizes that using such weapons is utter madness. All Crichton can do is laugh and use this trope. | |

Mung Daal tells her that the sport has no winners. Specifically, neither team is supposed to score a point, but Truffles, in her rage, creates a chain of events that leads to the team she's leading actually scoring a point. This provokes a giant turtle monster to rise from the ground underneath the stadium announcing "Game Over" and literally throw the whole sports stadium in the trash at which, Mung reprimands her for destroying the sport. Truffles replies that she thought Mung was being figurative. | |

Phineas and Ferb: In "Hip Hip Parade", Candace joins Linda for a girls' day out but is forced to promise to not think about Phineas and Ferb, or she'll suffer the "Pharaoh's curse". She struggles all day but eventually gives in and tries to bring Linda to the tricked out parade only to miss it as usual. Then a guy in a Pharaoh costume shows up and "curses" Candace, leading Linda to tell her daughter she tried to warn her. In "Run, Candace, Run", Doofenshmirtz is once about to lose his home for not paying the mortgage. When Agent P suggests him to ask his ex-wife for money, he refuses, in order to avoid the trope. She warned him not to spend money on the gargoyle statues. In the end, however, he gives in to Agent P's request, but not before sternly warning him not to gloat. |

His mother Mitsuki notes that both she and Masaru warned him that he needed to apply to other places so he'd have a 'Plan B' to fall back upon if his top pick didn't pan out, but he'd blown them off. | |

In My Hero Academia, just before the U.A. Sports Festival finals begin, Ojiro warns Midoriya that his first opponent, Shinso, can use his brainwashing quirk if Midoriya responds to anything Shinso says, and uses his tail to stop Midoriya from answering him. When the match begins, Shinso mocks Ojiro for having withdrawn from the tournament due to not feeling as though he deserved to be there (since Shinso manipulated him during the match), causing Midoriya to lose his temper, and angrily respond. Ojiro then says, "Dammit, Midoriya. I warned you!" | |

It's an indirect warning, but Olympia ignores it and is eventually demoted to the Food and Beverage department after bargaining with Oprah fails. Otis smugly tells her that he warned her not to get involved, but his smugness soon drops when Olympia tells him that he's also involved. | |

In the Weird route of Deltarune, a parallel to Undertale's No Mercy route, Spamton NEO, Superboss turned Final Boss, gives you a similar warning in his own way at the end of Chapter 2. Specifically, that if Kris/the Player thinks being a murderous, manipulative maniac in this way will get them the freedom they crave... they'll get it, but they will regret everything in the way so badly they shouldn't be surprised if they end up "[Crying] in a [Broken Home]", wishing they had let Spamton kill them when he still had the chance. As of the end of the same chapter, these consequences remain to be seen. | |

Malcolm in the Middle: Francis' friend, Richie, is sent to the same Military School, and when he meets Commandant Spangler, Spangler treats him like a buddy, allowing him to go about out of uniform while on campus, decorate his room any way he wants, and talk to him in a very casual manner, things that would generally lead to other cadets suffering some sort of cruel and unusual punishment. When Francis confronts Spangler over the Double Standard surrounding Richie's behavior, Spangler confesses that treating Richie better than the other cadets is the only way to fix him, since the others will hate him so much, that Richie will have no choice but to willingly conform, lest he attract the wrath of the other cadets. When Francis warns Richie of what Spangler is doing, Richie says that Francis is just jealous and share this exchange: In the Season 6 episode "No Motorcycles", after the brothers can't work out which of their particular pranks has gotten one of the local bullies after them, Reese points out that he said several years early they needed to better co-ordinate the timing of their pranks to avoid such a situation. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Subverted during Joffrey's eventful reign. Both Tyrion and Tywin Lannisters attempt various lessons amounting to "if you continue with this hare-brained idiocy, you will wind up dead, you fool!", but Joff doesn't usually let them finish. By the time the chickens come home to roost, neither Tyrion nor Tywin manage the "told you so" bit, being way too busy dealing with the fall-out to find the time. Nevertheless, the phrase looms, unspoken. Cersei gets in on this act, too. Except it's her uncle, Kevan, who is unable to bask in the rosy glow of being right about the looming disaster her ham-fisted stacking of the Small Council with Yes-Men during her time as the unbridled Queen Regent promised. He's too busy being dead after being murdered because he was trying his best to start fixing it, weeks after giving her a huge, if sarcastically polite, Take That!. Being ultimately proved right in Westeros doesn't seem to do you many favours, nor do you get much chance to get smug. During A Game of Thrones Littlefinger at one point openly tells Eddard Stark that he is extremely wise not to trust him, with the underlying implication that in the Decadent Court of the capital he'll be wise not to trust anyone. When it turns out Littlefinger has decided to throw his lot in with the Lannisters and backstabs Eddard at the worst possible moment, he comments to Ned that "I did warn you not to trust me, you know" as the latter is arrested. Also from A Game of Thrones, Robert says the phrase practically verbatim to Ned after learning that Daenerys, a princess of the ousted Targaryen dynasty(which Robert overthrew) married Dothraki horselord Khal Drogo and is pregnant with his child. Knowing that she will eventually invade the Seven Kingdoms with her Dothraki forces, he orders her assassinated. In the backstory novel Fire & Blood set in the same universe, a detachment of soldiers led by the corrupt Kingsguard knight Ser Amaury Peake are en route to arrest Lady Larra Rogare on false charges when they find their path blocked by her husband, Prince Viserys Targaryen, holding a battleaxe. Viserys bluntly says they're not touching his wife, slams the axe into the drawbridge they're standing on and warns anyone who goes past the axe will die. Peake and his men laugh off the threat and advance...at which point Larra's personal bodyguard, Sandoq the Shadow charges out and, as promised, kills the lot of them (ironically, Peake, the last man standing, gets his head split open with said axe). When the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard challenges Viserys's brother, King Aegon III, over letting one of his Kingsguard die in such a manner, Aegon retorts that Peake and his men were warned what would happen if they walked past the axe and still chose to disobey a royal command, so they brought their deaths on themselves as far as Aegon was concerned. Fire and Blood: After an extremely nasty argument between his daughter Rhaenyra's and his second wife Alicent's sides of the family over the legitimacy of Rhaenyra's sons, King Viserys I Targaryen puts his foot down and declares anyone who calls his grandsons by Rhaenyra bastards will lose their tongue for it. Several years later, when Rhaenyra asks her father-in-law, Corlys Velaryon, to make her second son Lucerys his heir, Corlys's nephew Vaemond protests he should be the heir because Lucerys is a bastard who can't inherit. Rhaenyra has Vaemond executed on the spot for his words, and Vaemond's family went to King's Landing to protest Rhaneyra's actions...and made the same mistake of calling the king's grandson a bastard in his presence. Viserys heard their petition in a stony silence and then ordered his guards to take them away and have their tongues cut out, insisting he had made it very clear what would happen to anyone who disobeyed his command on the subject. |

One Piece: Just before an iconic scene, a drunk taking a leak outside MockTown finds the latest wanted posters. He finds Luffy and Zoro's, and the amount they're worth sobers him up fast — these were the same pair the bar's patrons, egged on by the Bellamy Pirates, mocked and abused earlier! The drunk goes to warn Bellamy, but the pirate merely dismisses the issue. Those two from before didn't fight back, and anyway, some pirates print up fake wanted posters to bluff others. However, Luffy shows up for completely unrelated reasons and puts a knuckle-shaped dent in Bellamy's cheekbone. As the sheer weight of what happened sinks into the onlookers, all the drunk can say is, "I told you so." In Franky's backstory, he repeatedly built "Battle Franky" warships in hopes of taking down the Sea Kings around Water 7. Franky's fellow apprentice Iceberg complained about Franky's hobby, saying that he should get rid of them before someone gets hurt. Years later, Cipher Pol steals the latest batch of Battle Frankies to frame Tom's Workers for attacking the judicial ship, within a day of Iceberg's latest warning. In response, Iceberg reminds Franky about all the times he'd warned him to get rid of the Battle Frankies, but unlike many of these examples, he isn't feeling smug and vindicated, but is furious that the worst-case scenario happened because of Franky's negligence. |

The Thousand Year Door, Raven's newest card The Thief in the Shadows uses his effect to steal the top card of Stan's deck and add it to Raven's hand every time it deals damage. Raven takes Vivian's card this way, and dispite Stan's warning to not summon Vivian, Raven summons Vivian. During her next turn, Vivian refuses to attack Stan, and instead attacks Raven directly. | |

Escape From The Hokage's Hat has Shizune tell Tsunade, while they're travelling with Naruto and Hinata, that they need a proper base of operations so as to properly teach/train Hinata and rehabilitate Naruto (LongStory short, some idiots in Konoha placed multiple Power Limiter seals on Naruto to limit his growth and brainpower. The rehabilitation is taking place while they travel so no one in Konoha can sabotage Naruto's recovery, she won't be tempted to kill the villagers and prevent Naruto from being exiled from the village.) Tsunade brushes it off, saying a base would make for an easy target for the enemy. Fast forward 20 chapters later and the group has been tracked by 3 squads of Kiri hunter-nin (where Naruto and Hinata almost got caught), multiple bounty hunters, an Iwa death squad and other ninja villages want to capture them. Much to Tsunade's dismay and embarrassment, Shizune says "I told you so" whenever she gets the chance. | |

In Fate/Zero, Waver and Rider discover Ryuunosuke and Caster's hideout, only to find no trace of Master or Servant there. Waver insists on investigating to find any clues, but Rider who was able to sense what was amiss and is usually a bombastic fellow, takes a somber attitude and tries to discourage him from doing so. Ignoring Rider, Waver magically lights up the area and finds the bloody and mutilated remains of well over a dozen people, most of them children (and some of them still alive, in the manga or the novel) since Ryuunosuke is also a Serial Killer and a self-proclaimed Mad Artist. As Waver retches in disgust and horror, Rider somberly says that he did warn Waver. | |

On The West Wing, in the first season episode "Celestial Navigation", there's an awesome non-verbal example. C.J. has emergency root canal surgery, leaving her unable to do the afternoon press conference, so Josh says he'll do it instead (to C.J.'s horror). Danny, the regular White House beat reporter, warns Josh that he doesn't want to do the press conference, but Josh, in full Smug Snake role, brags that his education and background will allow him to handle anything the press can throw at him. Danny merely says, "Okie-dokie." Cue later, after Josh's Epic Fail of a press conference, he looks forlornly at Danny, who merely smiles at him. | |

Gremlins (1984): "With Mogwai, comes much responsibility. I cannot sell him at any price." Randall Peltzer acquires a mogwai anyway. Warnings about them are ignored and the gremlins run wild. Ironically, the warnings were heeded. The mistake came from trusting an analog clock that turned out to be stopped because the evil Mogwai (later Gremlin) Stripe had sabotaged it. The "do not get them wet" rule being broken was an accident. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: In "The 'Good Old Days'", there is a talking sun that warns people not to look at him, lest they go blind. At the end of the episode, when Timmy defeats Vicky (turned into a boy due to the rules of not beating girls up in old cartoons), she flees in terror and then suddenly screams, "THE SUN! I'M BLIIIIIIIIND!" The sun replies "I warned ya", then laughs. In "Just the Two of Us!", Timmy wishes that he and Trixie are the only two humans on Earth so he could have her all to himself. Wanda warns him how her need for attention would cause problems, but he doesn't listen. His enjoyment fades the longer Trixie craves for attention. Timmy is forced to admit his wish backfired, only for Wanda to do a long celebratory "I told you so". When Cosmo snatches her away out of jealousy, Timmy is forced to avoid a violently obsessed Trixie until he summons his fairies again to finally reverse his wish. |

In Origin Story, Tony Stark says this almost word-for-word to Henry Peter Gyrich after Alex Harris utterly annihilates the Thunderbolts when the attack Gyrich orders on Harris and her girlfriend Louise results in Louise's hospitalization. Likewise, when the Thing is cornered by SHIELD agents, he nonchalantly hands over a folder proving he's got diplomatic immunity as a French ambassador. While one of the agents freaks out, his superior orders him to proceed with the arrest. A few paragraphs later, Tony receives a phone call from an infuriated French official, and the US is slapped with major economic repercussions, with Stark Industries being the first targeted. |

Crimson and Noire: While calling out Gabriel, Nooroo reminds him that he was repeatedly warned by Duusu, the Guardians, and the previous Butterfly wielder that the Butterfly Miraculous had been damaged. Despite this, Emilie used it until its power put her into a coma. After it was fixed, Nooroo then warns him against using it, but Gabriel again ignored him, letting Nathalie use it to become Monarch. As a result, Nooroo makes clear that Gabriel is just as responsible for the fallout as Natalie is, specifically in regards to Nathalie getting Ezra deliberating akumatize and sending him after Adrien when suspecting the latter is Crimson Beetle. | |

More than two decades later, Izuku's relationship with his son Shikinori is extremely strained; not only does Shikinori resent how his parents' careers kept them away and destroyed their marriage, there's a fundamental disconnect between father and son, with Shikinori suspecting that Izuku expects him to become a Pro Hero despite his having no interest in it. When Izuku turns to his old mentor for support, Toshinori reminds him of his previous advice: | |

One rather long series of Peanuts comic strips starts with Charlie Brown volunteering for the school spelling bee. Violet (who's sitting behind him) whispers, "Don't do it, you'll just make a fool of yourself!" Charlie Brown doesn't listen, and sadly, he messes up royally in the first round (his love of baseball causes him to accidentally spell his word, "maze", M-A-Y-S). Violet tells him, "I told you you'd make a fool of yourself." (And the day only gets worse for poor Charlie Brown from there...) | |

Game of Thrones: King Robert isn't happy when his trusted but overly-honorable friend Ned Stark plays down the threat of a princess from the royal family he deposed marrying an Eastern horselord with an army of 40,000 riders. When a spy sends news that she's with child, the king is not amused. In Season 4 finale, Tyrion, aiming a crossbow at his father Tywin, warned him not to call Shae a "whore" again: Littlefinger's Wham Line, "I did warn you not to trust me..." in "You Win Or You Die." When he sees the wildling army in "The Watchers on the Wall", Ser Alliser Thorne tells Jon to go ahead and say this, but Jon lets it pass. |

An early FoxTrot storyline had Paige being asked out by a senior student who is known to be a sleazebag, which she accepted even though Peter repeatedly warned her, which Paige dismissed. Of course, he tried to make moves on her, despite saying no, and he only relented after she threatened to mace him (which Paige only brought because Peter made her). After telling Peter what happened, his only response is that he's going to spend weeks taunting her and saying "I told you so," which only made Paige's night worse. | |

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Claudia's Jerkass (former) boyfriend Ducio (who Ezio beat the crap out of for abusing her) makes a return as a ship captain that got his hands on three of Da Vinci's paintings that Ezio needs. Ducio, who has no idea that Ezio has become a master Assassin, begins mouthing off, thinking that his crew will back him up. Ezio drops a rather ominous "I am warning you...", and Ducio, not taking the hint, begins trashing Claudia. Ezio decks Ducio with a punch to the face and proceeds to mop the floor with him and his crew. Much fun is had for the player. | |

Taken. After getting his daughter kidnapped, Brian Mills warns the attackers that they really should let her go because if they don't, he will look for them, he will find them, and he will kill them. He only gets "good luck" in response. Two days later he meets a bunch of Albanian guys whom he believes to be involved in the attack and asks one of them to translate a phrase from Albanian to English, which the guy does, the phrase being "good luck". Recognizing the voice, Brian reminds the guy of their earlier chat on the phone, saying "I told you I would find you". | |

When even he can no longer deny this the looks of "I told you so" from everyone say it all. Ridge and Pritti are also warned by their Only Sane Man repeatedly that this is irresponsible and wrong and is completely ignored. When them being proven wrong results in Ridge being sued into poverty and Pritti losing her job he comments that he hopes, some day, they can actually grow as human beings from this. |

In the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Plankton's Army", Plankton and his brethren manage to incapacitate Mr. Krabs, break into his safe, and steal the Krabby Patty recipe. Krabs warns Plankton that "some things in this world weren't meant for mortal eyes", but Plankton ignores him and reads the recipe anyway. When the secret ingredient turns out to be ground plankton, Plankton and his ilk flee the restaurant in terror, but not before Mr. Krabs delivers a blunt "I warned ya". Considering the recipe was a fake, however, Krabs' warnings may well have been Reverse Psychology to goad Plankton on. | |

For His Own Sake: Naru's mother Saori tried to convince her daughter that she needed to learn how to control her Hair-Trigger Temper. Not only did Naru refuse to listen, she made a point of blaming her and Mei for her problems when they attempted to help her out, hitting her stepsister with a Breaking Speech accusing her of being upset when things didn't revolve completely around HER. After finally destroying her relationship with Granny Hina, who cuts her off after she helps kidnap Keitaro and nearly gets him murdered, Naru starts trying to cross the bridges she torched, only to find that nobody's willing to take her in and put up with her abuse any further. Saori notes that she'd warned her about this very possibility. | |

Son of the Sannin has a comical example during the Chunin Exams arc. Tsunade constantly bets on Naruto and wastes no time in cashing in her gambling tickets, despite Shizune telling her she should stop and keep the money she's earned. Predictably, when Naruto loses in the finals to Gaara, Shizune has absolutely No Sympathy for her: | |

In Everyone Is Home, Cloud warns everyone to not trust Sephiroth just because he did a Heel–Face Turn. No one believes him and this lets Sephiroth poison practically the entire Smash roster with ease. Once Cloud is revived (being the last one, even), he is pissed off at what happened and begins shouting "I warned you!" at everyone for not taking his warnings seriously. | |

Doctor Who: "The Web of Fear" starts with Professor Travers, previously featured on "The Abominable Snowmen", warning Julius Silverstein of the massive danger posed by the Robot Yeti shell owned by the latter now that a control sphere has been reactivated and is on the loose. Silverstein turns him away, which predictably results in the control sphere breaking in and reanimating the Yeti, leading to an apocalyptic takeover of London. The exchange between the two, which includes the trope name verbatim, became a minor meme thanks to the Twitch Classic Doctor Who marathon trailers. "School Reunion": The Doctor also plays this line for drama all the time. Especially Ten. It goes with his "I'm giving you a chance" mantra, which the Monster of the Week almost invariably ignores. He says it verbatim in "The Runaway Bride" after blowing up and drowning the last of the Racnoss. In "The Power of the Doctor", the Master gives the Doctor a somber warning to flee Earth because he has an Evil Plan to wipe his former friend-turned Arch-Enemy from existence. The Master then immediately points out that this will only ensure the Doctor stays to find out what his plan is and stop it. |

Sealab 2021: A Running Gag in the episode "In the Closet", in which Murphy sucker-punches everyone who enters the utility closet they're locked in, declaring "I warned him," when the closest he comes to a warning is "stop it," and then only half the time. In the same episode, however, the trope is played straight when Marco warns Sparks that the door is broken. |

The Love Live! Superstar!! fancomic political stupidity has Wien wanting to win a subunit poll on her own rather than be in KALEIDOSCORE with Keke and Ren, despite Keke pointing out that doing so would just split the votes. In the second panel, not only are Keke and Ren along with Wien are in the bottom two spots, but their number of votes shows they could have gotten first place if Wien remained with her subunit. The normally proud Wien has a sheepish expression as the other two glare at her. | |

She must have told them off-camera because we sure didn't hear it. In the crossover with Supernatural, when the Winchesters reveal the existence of real ghosts and monsters to the Scooby Gang, Shaggy and Scooby are quick to read the riot act to the others about it, shouting they Knew It All Along. |

Fengshen Yanyi: During the entirety of the Zhou's war against Shang and the continuous victories against the various Passes, King Zhou blissfully ignores the crisis or, under Daji's advice, ignores the warnings as nothing more than trickery from greedy commanders who want to receive more resources. By the time King Wu's army has breached the final fortress of Mengjin and has crossed the Yellow River, King Zhou finally panics and takes the situation seriously, only for his surviving ministers to remind him that they did warned him about the danger posed by Jiang Ziya and King Wu in the past. | |

Codename: Kids Next Door: In the first of many confrontations, Numbuh Five has a candy stolen by her former candy-hunting partner now rival, Heinrich. And tracks him to a temple where he wishes to use said candy in a ritual to become the king of sweets (it's an odd series). Before he does, he disregards the hieroglyphs, in which Numbuh Five enters and warns him that if he is greedy the candy will taste like asparagus. Heinrich doesn't believe her and proceeds with the ritual. Once it's done, of course, the aforementioned curse takes effect and he blames her. She retorts she did warn him, which only enrages him further. (Ironically, in a much later episode, it's revealed that the incident in Guatemala that started their rivalry was also caused by him being selfish. That seems to be Heinrich's defining trait.) In "Operation: F.L.A.V.O.R.", when the Delightful Children find the sacred Fourth Flavor, Numbuh Five frantically tells them not to put jimmies on it before tasting it (knowing that putting toppings on ice cream like this would be sacrilege). They ignore this warning, and bring the wrath of the ice cream gods down upon them. (One of many examples of Stupid Evil that has caused their plans to fail, although just like all the other times, they fail to learn from it.) Numbuh Five again in "Operation C.A.K.E.D.T.H.R.E.E", where her plan to steal the Delightful Children's cake is for Sector V build a giant robot so they could fight it against the giant robot the DCFDTL will likely have waiting for their arrival. In the climax, she's right. |

Lila completely blows her off, only to learn firsthand just how bad it can get when Hawk Moth has one of his akuma take her hostage. The situation is further complicated by another one of her lies, as Chat Noir parrots her claim of having a Miraculous of her own right in front of the villain, forcing her to come clean. After rescuing her, Ladybug calmly reminds her that she warned her while Lila sulks. | |

Etra chan saw it!: Both Yuri and Karin try to warn Akane to stop having an affair, but she ignores them until it was too late when the wife found out. She blames them for not warning her sooner, before Yuri quickly shuts her up. In this story, Akamatsu tries to invest in real estate, despite warnings from both his family and real estate workers, Karin and Hiiragi, about the risk of failure. Unsurprisingly, Akamatsu's investment fails miserably, and he is forced a lifetime worth of debt, as both Karin and Hiiragi predicted, and his family abandoned him before they become collateral damage when he inevitably fails. |

Knowing that revealing the list would endanger the lives of the returnees, Dennis twice demands the reporter to return the list and not report the returnees names as there will be consequences. The reporter doesn't heed his warnings and releases the names on the list. In retaliation, Dennis later reveals to the reporter that he obtained evidence that she tried to cover up a hit and run she was involved where the victim died and has sent it to the press, telling the shocked reporter that, had she listened to him, her dark past would have not been revealed and her career forever ruined. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In "Passion", Xander goes off on a rant about this after Angelus kills Giles' Love Interest Jenny Calendar, having never liked Angel and openly supporting Giles' Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Xander got in another one with regards to his relationship with Angel. After Angel punched out Xander, the latter went back to the gang to report the return of Angelus. Unbeknownst to Xander, Angel was pretending to be Angelus to expose Faith and the Mayor. In "Doomed", when an earthquake strikes, Buffy is paranoid and convinced the world is going to end, especially since the last time an earthquake hit Sunnydale, it led to her Disney Death at the hands of the Master; when she tells Giles, however, he dismisses her concerns, reminding her that earthquakes are a common Southern California occurrence. When Willow later comes across a body with an arcane symbol carved into its chest, Giles does some research and discovers that it is indeed the end of the world again; Buffy does not let him live it down. |

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows has Moran say this after he shoots a soldier who is blocking his line of fire as he is trying to shoot Watson. Inverted in that there was no way for the soldier to hear the warning. Moran was simply commenting. | |

Ben 10: Unlimited: A rare version where the one commiting the action is also the one giving the warning. Hamilton becomes extremely interested in the Ultimatrix, and becomes desperate to see and experiment on it. Waller already knows that Ben Tennyson won't willingly leave the Justice League, and believes that the Ultimatrix is too complex and alien for them to understand. Still, to humor Hamilton, she tries to recruit Ben...and he not only tells her no, but tells her all of the reasons why CADMUS is a bigger threat than the Justice League is. She expected him to say no, and isn't fazed. Still, she gives a subtle version to Hamilton when she tells him that Ben won't be joining (leaving the scientist near tears note Don't feel bad for him; the experiments he planned on the Ultimatrix might have killed Ben and what's more, he was planning on human experimentation to give the powers of Ben's alien forms to normal humans. | |

Dragon Ball Z: Gohan says this to Cell, after the Cell Juniors torturing the other heroes and Cell murdering Android 16 causes Gohan to go Super Saiyan 2. Gohan did warn Cell about his hidden power, and that Cell shouldn't try to awaken it, but those pesky Blood Knight tendencies Cell inherited from the Saiyans just wouldn't let him turn down the challenge. During the Buu Saga, the Old Kai expresses disapproval of using the Dragon Balls to fix all of the damage Buu has done, believing that their overuse would lead to trouble. Come Dragon Ball GT, when the Z-Fighters unleash the Shadow Dragons upon the world by trying to summon Shenron, the Old Kai promptly goes off on a rant about how he tried to warn them of the dangers. |

Fantastic Four: In their college years, Reed Richards warned Victor von Doom that he made a few miscalculations that would cause his new invention to malfunction. Victor didn't listen and the machine blew up in his face. Literally. Victor's oh-so-reasonable response was to drop out of college, build a suit of Powered Armor, take over a country, and spend the rest of his life trying to ruin the lives of Reed Richards and his loved ones in revenge for causing the failure. | |

Breaking Bad: In Season 4, Hank stumbles across circumstantial evidence which suggests Gus is linked to the local drug trade. Although an interview with Gus clears him of suspicion with the DEA, Hank is personally not convinced and mounts a one-man, off the books investigation to find tangible proof of Gus' criminal activities. Everyone else thinks his suspicions are ridiculous and totally unfounded, since Gus is an active financial supporter of the DEA and a pillar of the community, although part of this has to do with Walt secretly sabotaging Hank's investigation whenever possible, because if Hank actually does find evidence incriminating Gus, they'll all be in mortal peril. When Gus is killed in a cartel suicide bombing at the end of the season, Hank is proven totally correct. In the beginning of Season 5, as the DEA is investigating the ruins of Gus' meth lab, Hank's partner Gomez tells Hank to just get it over with and say "I told you so" before he needs dialysis from holding it in so long. | |

The Cat Who... Series: Early on in book #11 (The Cat Who Lived High), when Qwill is making plans to go back to Down Below for a while, pretty much everyone he knows tells him it's a bad idea and advises him not to go. When the police call them to inform them Qwill is dead (it's actually a thief who stole his car and was misidentified), everyone is deeply distressed, and Chief Andrew Brodie even cries "I warned him!" | |

In an episode of Frasier, Roz ends up producing Bulldog's show, and the two start really gelling. Frasier is convinced that Bulldog is only keeping Roz around so he can seduce her, Roz is convinced that Frasier is merely jealous, and eventually breaks off her friendship with Frasier over it. Of course, Bulldog is only keeping Roz around so he can seduce her, he tries it on later that night, and who should come along while Roz is throwing Bulldog out of her apartment than Frasier, who has ironically come around to apologize to Roz only to get plenty of evidence that he was right all along. In a variation on the trope, Frasier decides he's going to let her acknowledge he was right first: | |

In Lady Luck, Chloé and Plagg both suggest delaying on taking down the Bubbler despite Tikki's protest, since the Bubbler seems only interested in throwing a great party and it gives Adrien the chance to have a normal birthday. They later learn from Marinette that the Bubbler has been bubbling adults and sending them to the stratosphere, which forces the heroes to action. Chloé tells Tikki not to give them an "I told you speech," which Tikki says it fine because it's clear they got the idea... which feels much worse than the speech. | |

Nemesis (BeaconHill): Emma made a deal with Cauldron so that she could Trigger and become a "hero". She also selected Taylor to be her Arch-Enemy, forcing her to Trigger with the intent of making her favorite victim become a supervillain that she could beat up for fame and glory. When Taylor proves to be smarter than she expected, becoming a Joke/Humor villain who's beloved by their community, Emma throws a temper tantrum over how Bumblebee is making her look bad. Doctor Mother bluntly reminds Emma that they'd warned her that her plans could backfire. | |
