A sister trope to Luke, I Am Your Father, this is when the revelation exists not that a person in question is a character's father, but he might be. It turns out that they had sex with the character's mother at about the same time as the fertilization, so the possibility exists. The thing is, they probably aren't the only person who did so. A common result of the invocation of this trope is that someone uses either science or magic to determine who the real father is. How long this takes depends on the speed of the plot. As it is predicated on Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe it is an Always Male trope in most cases. Female cases are still possible, when the mother is separated from her child shortly after birth. See also Ambiguously Related. Note that DNA testing good enough to establish the truth is relatively recent.note Blood group testing, a somewhat unreliable early form of paternity testing, was developed in the 1930s, while higher quality DNA paternity tests with accuracy rates over 99% have only been around since the late 1980s. In historical settings, possible father and child will often be left hanging and have to do their best to work things out without knowing. Obviously, spoilers are involved here. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Godzilla suspects, but has no way of confirming, that Dagon/Raijin — the long-fallen member of his species presented in Godzilla (2014) and Godzilla: Aftershock — might have been his father. | |

Wonder Woman (1987): During The Contest Diana gets a bunch of visions implying Hercules is her father, and Hippolyta repeatedly makes it clear her word can't be trusted and that she's mislead Diana about her past so when Diana confronts her mother and Hippolyta insists she was born of clay and that Herc isn't her father her words are undermined by her own actions and the situation is left ambiguous, though the obvious editorial intent was that the clay origin should be considered the most likely. | |

In the first season of Dimension 20 it's a running gag that Gorgug keeps asking people if they're his real father no matter how absurd the question is in context, him being a half-orc and his adoptive parents being gnomes. But one person he asks is Bill Seacaster, father of Fabian and self-admitted lover of hundreds of orcish women, who can't rule out that he might be Gorgug's father. He turns out not to be, and in Sophmore Year it's indicated that all of Fabian's half-siblings were hunted down by Jim Whitclaw. There's also a rather bizarre case spawned from the same Running Gag of Luke, You Might Be My Father where Gorgug asks Arthur Aegfort if he's his father. Aegfort responds "I was going to ask you the same thing," which might be just another example of Aegfort being a Cloudcuckoolander but given Aegfort's nature as a Time Master and his inexplicably hostile attitude towards Gorgug after this moment, it's entirely within the realm of possibility that Aegfort is actually Gorgug's Kid from the Future. |

On House, it's established that House's mother often cheated on his father. House is aware of this, and wonders if the man who raised him is really his biological father. When his father dies, House manages to secretly cut off a little bit of the corpse's hair to do a DNA test. It turns out the dead man isn't House's biological father, and so House develops a theory that a Unitarian minister that is a long-time friend of his parents might actually be his dad. He gets especially suspicious of this when his mother starts an open relationship with the minister after his legal father's death. He manages to sneak a napkin that the minister used out of the restaurant after having dinner with the man and his mother, and does a DNA test on that, but it turns out negative. It is never established after that who House's biological father is. | |

In Umineko: When They Cry, with the revelations that Kyrie apparently had a stillborn child on the same day that Battler was born and later that Asumu is not Battler's mother, it's heavily implied from EP4 onwards that Kyrie isn't Battler's stepmother so much as his actual mother. This is later confirmed in EP8. | |

In an episode of The Simpsons, Homer meets one of his mother's old flames and starts wondering if this man, and not Abe Simpson, is his real father. A DNA test proves that this is the case because Abe switched the labels on the samples, wanting Homer to have a father he could be proud of. | |

A persistent fan theory among the Guilty Gear fandom was that the identity of Dizzy's father is none other than series lead Sol Badguy. This is mainly because, back when he was still a human named Frederick, Sol was romantically linked with a fellow scientist named Aria, who was heavily implied to the true identity of Dizzy's mother, the Commander Gear Justice, although the timeline muddies things due to Dizzy's suggested parentage both being full Gears (Dizzy is only half-Gear) and having a mutually antagonistic relationship around the time Justice would've likely given birth to Dizzy. The guy in question does have an odd but subtly paternal way of dealing with Dizzy (his Story Path 2 and Dizzy's Story Path 3 in XX are two of the most frequently-cited examples among several), never mind some shared powers that are too coincidental to ignore, but it was left deliberately open until Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- definitively confirmed Justice to be Aria and therefore that Sol is Dizzy's father, making Sol father-in-law to his rival and Dizzy's husband Ky Kiske (to their mutual dismay) and grandfather to Ky and Dizzy's son Sin, who he was already a mentor and father figure to. | |

Shirley became pregnant in season 2 of Community, and was uncertain whether the father was her ex-husband Andre (they had recently reconciled) or Senor Chang (they had gotten drunk and had sex at a Halloween party). When the baby was delivered at the end of the season, they deduced that the father was Andre. In another episode, Professors Hickey and Duncan are having a drink and talking. It turns out that Hickey had spent quite a lot of time in the English town that Duncan is originally from, especially at a particular pub where Duncan's mom worked as a prostitute. Hickey mentions losing his virginity to one such prostitute, around the time Duncan would have been conceived. An awkward silence follows until Hickey mentions that the woman he slept with only had one thumb. An extremely relieved Duncan says that his mother still has both her thumbs. He does, however, have an aunt with one thumb, and his cousin's personality is a lot like Hickey's... |

In Arrested Development, Oscar Bluth is certain that he's Buster's real father. He expresses this by constantly dropping laughably obvious hints which Buster is too Genre Blind and oblivious to notice. Lucille seems convinced of it too but since Oscar and George Sr. are identical twins it could be either way and not really make much of a difference. | |

The tenth and final series of Spooks featured Sasha Gavrik, a Russian FSB operative whose father was either Ilya Gavrik, the lead negotiator in the proposed partnership between Russia and Britain, or Sir Harry Pearce, who'd gotten sucked into the intrigue surrounding The Parnership due to his connection to Elena Gavrik. Sasha himself doesn't know of this upon his initial introduction, and finds out via a secure file in the fourth episode. The final episode has Elena reveal that that she knew Ilya was Sasha's father, and that she deliberately complicated the situation in order to further the goals of the KGB (back in the 80s) and later the Ultranationlist faction that was trying to sink The Partnership. The revelation leads directly to Elena's death at the hands of Ilya - which in turn leads to Sasha going after Harry and killing Ruth instead. | |

The Supernatural episode "The Kids are Alright" has Dean meet up with a woman he slept with once and find out that she's now a single mother. Her son is about the right age to be Dean's and even acts a little like him, has similar tastes, etc. It turns out he's not the father, though-she explains the similarities as her having a type, i.e. the actual father was like Dean because that was the kind of guy she went for. This was later given an "Or Is He" when said woman and her son were brought back as recurring characters in the sixth season. A demon possessing her taunts Dean with the knowledge that he might actually have been the father and Lisa had lied (or been mistaken) about it for whatever reason, but the demon is exorcised and Lisa's memory wiped before Dean can find out for certain either way. |

The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress is set on the Moon, where men massively outnumber women, and multiple marriages are the norm. The main character explains that it's common for a Loonie to not know who their father is. And in some cases, they may not be sure who their mother is. At another point, he talks about one of his "sons," and how it's possible the boy resembles him. | |

A Slap On Titan: It is ambiguous whether or not Hannes is Eren's father. Eren doesn't like Hannes for being a ginger and claiming that his mother Carla was "a massive whore back in the day". During the Fall of Shinganshina, Eren learns that his mother slept with Hannes in the past, and Hannes tells Eren that he has to accept him because he "might be [his] father", which Eren denies. Despite the ambiguity, Hannes keeps trying to claim Eren as his son which causes Eren to correct him by saying that he is merely his "potential father". The desire to prove that Hannes isn't his father is one of Eren's reasons for wanting to return to his basement, as his ostensible father Grisha told him that there he would find the truth about his mother's past. | |

In Avengers Academy, Finesse and Taskmaster think they might be related because of their similar special abilities. Taskmaster doesn't deny the possibility but states that he's been with quite a few women and he couldn't possibly narrow down Finesse's mother even if he didn't have memory problems. He also refuses to take a Daddy DNA Test because he doesn't want the government to get a sample of his DNA. Taskmaster still spars with Finesse once to memorize her movements, since it's the only surefire way he will remember her. | |

The Victors Project: Ben Cooper's "secret" is that he suspects his mentee and fellow Victor Abram Mills might be his biological son from a one night stand he had with Abram's mother Caramel. It's actually why he came out of retirement to mentor Abram in the first place. Whether it's true or not, Abram certainly took after Ben in the end when he rallied District 9 during the revolution and led them against the Capitol forces, ultimately dying after taking down a literal mountain of peacekeepers with him. | |

Used on Archer, who has at least three potential fathers. The one most interested in building a relationship with him (and at least trying to prove his paternity), and thus falling into this trope, is the head of the KGB, Nikolai Jakov. Though DNA testing exists, his sample was deliberately contaminated when tested by the KGB. The other possibilities are rival spymaster Len Trexxler and jazz drummer Buddy Rich, though he is apparently the least likely. A fourth man was revealed to have had an affair with Malory just before WWII, but was executed for speaking out against fascist Italy. When Archer runs away following his fiancée's death, his mother sends Rip Riley to find him. Rip eventually reveals he had an affair with Archer's mother, but Archer would have to be 15 to be his son. | |

However, they are some contradictions that Witch's child is present Shiki, given that Shiki has a different hair color than either of them and that said baby was concieved 20,000 years before the main story. | |

Final Fantasy VI takes this trope and stretches it as thin as it can get. A series of hidden flashbacks reveals that Shadow was injured at an unspecified point in the past and nursed back to health by an unspecified young woman in Thamasa. It's not even specified that they slept together, but the Law of Conservation of Detail (and a cute doggy) suggests that the woman was Relm's mother, and Shadow is her father. Another popular theory holds that the Memento Ring relics are evidence of a connection between Shadow and Relm, as only those two can equip it. Relm has one initially equipped, and you can find another hidden in Strago's house. (You can actually steal a third ring from Wrexsoul, but that's neither here nor there.) Its flavor text mentions a mother's love acting as protection from fatal magical attacks. |

In the post-storyline portions of Pokémon Black and White, a parental relationship that was thought to be clear is called into question. One of the captured Sages of Team Plasma recalls that he doesn't know where N came from, and speculates that Ghetsis might not be N's father. Considering what Ghetsis was doing to N, this might even be more horrifying. | |

In Rob Roy MacGregor's wife is raped by Cunningham, who keeps it a secret from her husband knowing that it was intended as an attack against him. When she is subsequently pregnant, Cunningham's associate Killearn threatens to tell MacGregor not only about the rape, but that Cunningham may well be the father of the unborn child. She doesn't take this threat well. Even though this threat turns out to be a bit pointless, because she tells him anyway and he refuses to hold it against her or the child. Cunningham is another matter. | |

Ultimate X-Men: Wolverine met Magda and had sex with her, which angered her husband, Magneto. He simply threw him out of the window, down a mountain. Many years later Wolverine joined the Brotherhood, with Magneto ignoring that Wolverine was Magda's lover (since by this point Magneto was determined to ignore the fact he'd ever been in a relationship with a filthy non-mutant). Wolverine was shocked to see Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch (especially the latter, as she looked so similar to her mother and even used a similar costume), and wondered if they may be his children. As of Ultimate Wolverine, it turns out that they did have a child, but it's not the twins, it was Jimmy Hudson. | |

Shortly after, Zissou hilariously introduces Plimpton saying, "This is Ned. He's my son, probably." Turns out he's not as it is later revealed that Zissou is sterile, but by that point in the story, he and Ned have become as close as father and son. | |

Still Game: The primary plot of Who's The Daddy has the Clansman threatened to be demolished by a developer looking to build cottages in honor of his late mother. His mother was quite promiscuous having had relationships with Jack, Victor and Winston just before she left Craiglang after being impregnated. The three spend the episode trying to deduce who the father might be in hopes of convincing him not to tear down their pub. The only problem is the developer shares traits with all of them. At the end of the episode, it's revealed his biological father is in fact Pete the Jakey. This allows the Clansman to stay standing, being renamed after the developer's mother. | |

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker heavily implies, although never outright confirms, the possibility of Strangelove being Otacon's birthmother in the second ending due to apparently expressing an attraction to Huey. This is confirmed in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Albeit, Strangelove states that she purely used him for his body and raised Hal as her and the Boss's child instead, but this is from a deathbed monologue after Huey locked her in the AI Pod to die, and may not be an unbiased account of Huey. | |

One episode of Boston Legal dealt with the squick ensuing when Denny Crane meets a girlfriend's mother and realizes to his horror that he used to have a sexual relationship with her-at about the time his girlfriend would have been conceived. It's not him. | |

In Sonic X, it's heavily hinted (but never outright stated) that Dark Oak is Cosmos's father due to the fact she's the last child of Earthia, who was Dark Oak/Lucas' wife. | |

Two and a Half Men: Alan believes he is the father of his ex-wife's daughter, not her new husband, Herb. This is Left Hanging (aside from a dream sequence). Not quite related to potential parental lineage, but a Christmas episode had Charlie preparing to sleep with a blonde he met at a Christmas party (mostly just to spite his mother, who was strongly suggesting against it). It later turns out the blonde was potentially Charlie's half-sister by Charlie's late father (Charlie's parents had a "wife swap" with their neighbours, which apparently resulted in the husband "losing interest in conventional sex"). This ended up having Charlie's bar on who to sleep with raised somewhat. Yet another episode had an old girlfriend of Charlie's — with whom he broke off around eight years ago — showing up in town with a little boy in tow who looks suspiciously like Charlie. She calls him Chuck, dresses him in Charlie's signature style, and casually mentions that he plays the piano (as Charlie does.) Charlie spends the episode wrestling with the idea that his irresponsibility might actually have serious repercussions this time, and finding it within himself to step up and offer to be in the boy's life, then paying her child support when she rebukes his offer. Turns out the kid isn't even hers; she's babysitting him and his name is Ryan. |

Dezi in Darkover 's mother boinked about six different guys while wasted one night, none of whom will claim him as his own (well, one of them was going to claim him as a son, but didn't live long enough to do it). Dezi is really, really pissed about that. | |

The South Park two-part episode (with Cliffhanger) "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut/Cartman's Mom is Still a Dirty Slut" - Cartman tries to find out who his father is. The thing is, Mrs. Cartman was really drunk that night and while she almost had sex with just about everyone at the party she was attending (except Halfy, but he doesn't have any legs so he doesn't count), she can't quite remember who she finally ended up with. The two-parter ended with the revelation that she's a hermaphrodite and Cartman's father, with the mother now unknown. However, a much later episode Ret Cons this to say that his father is Jack Tenorman, the father of Scott Tenorman, making Cartman a Self-Made Orphan. | |

In early-post Crisis Barbara Gordon was Jim Gordon's neice rather than daughter. Then she discovered that Jim might have been sleeping with his brother's wife (Barbara's mother) at the time Barbara was conceived. She decided not to pursue the matter any further. Later this was retconned back to to having Jim always be her dad and actually be married to her mother. | |

A version shows up in The Trials of Apollo, though it's a bit unusual in although it's the identity of the father that gets questioned, there's absolutely no clue as to the second father or biological mother's identity. Instead a character claims a child as his younger sibling and refuses to explain what he means- his mother died long before the child would have been conceived, but his father has no memory of fathering the child. | |

An episode of Airwolf featured a Vietnamese refugee who'd been in a relationship with St. John Hawke and her son who might have been his and thus Stringfellow's nephew. The episode ends with Archangel noting they might never know the truth.note In reality, this wouldn't be the case. HLA testing, available from the 1960s on, would have had an 80% chance of identifying if String and the boy were related or not, since String and Sinjin were brothers. RFLP testing, with 95%+ accuracy, came into use during the show's run. | |

RCN: Part of the plot of The Way to Glory involves Daniel Leary's estranged father Corder Leary believing that a midshipman whom Daniel's new CO, Commander Slidell, spaced for mutiny on his last voyage was Corder's bastard son from an affair, and demanding that Daniel avenge him (which Daniel is wholly against doing: he's a soldier, not a murderer). Post-climax, Adele Mundy digs through RCN records offscreen and is able to prove genetically that the midshipman was not a Leary by-blow, but in fact the son of Slidell's brother, whom Corder's mistress was also sleeping with. | |

Mentioned in the Belisarius Series as a potential threat to the stable future of Auxum. To avert it, after Eon dies, Ousanas makes a point of being away from the kingdom (and his new wife) for at least a year to ensure that there's no way any of his descendants can make a claim on the throne by arguing that they were plausibly conceived by the dead king: there'd simply be too much time between his death and the birth of the next child. | |

An episode of Frasier had an old friend of Niles and Frasier's (deceased) mother turn up. He is much closer in personality to the sons than their father, and, thanks to Roz, Martin begins to wonder if he could be their real father (in no small part because Hester did cheat on him once). Eventually the friend confides that he loved their mother because she never revealed his big secret: he's gay (and obviously never slept with her). | |

In the Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers episodes "Gift of Life" and "Sundancer," the disgraced Fatherly Scientist Max Sawyer asks Shane (an Artificial Human that Max helped create) to find Max's son, Billy. The kid appears to be ordinary, and Max did have a wife. However, during the climactic horse race, Billy appears to activate Supertrooper-like abilities. Seeing as Max Sawyer was a genius at genetic engineering, it leaves open the question as to whether Billy was conceived the natural way, or if the kid is really Shane's de facto brother. | |

An episode of Dharma & Greg featured Dharma becoming convinced that Greg was the father of his ex's son. It's all a big misunderstanding. In another episode Dharma's old friend shows up and starts spending a lot of time with Dharma's father, Larry. She eventually reveals that she thinks Larry might be her father, and she wants to spend some time with each of the possible candidates just so she's sure she got to know her dad at some point in her life. Larry turns out to be her favorite, and Dharma chooses not to reveal proof she found that Larry is not the real father. |

Used in Star Trek: The Next Generation as part of a plot by the Ferengi to blackmail Picard, although the idea came from somebody who was out for revenge from a previous episode. Nitpickers wonder about how much effort was required. Find a kid who Captain Picard might have fathered, the true identity of the father must be unknown, the mother must be out of the picture to prevent blabbing, and so forth. After all, for Kirk? Easiest mission ever. Picard, on the other hand, is a little too much of a responsible adult for it to be completely plausible. That the whole thing was motivated by Revenge Before Reason on the part of someone with a vendetta against Jean-Luc makes it slightly more plausible, however. And for the record, he wasn't the father. | |
