Everybody gets sad or sulky sometimes, but sometimes when a character appears to be in a bad mood to another character, they're actually perfectly content. This trope is when somebody is mistaken for being in an emotional funk by another character. Perhaps they have an expression that lends itself to being interpreted as being unhappy (maybe they're The Stoic, a Perpetual Frowner, or have the Face of a Thug) or aren't speaking much (which other characters misinterpret as Silence of Sadness) or are behaving in a reserved way or spending a lot of time alone or have a dark aesthetic (maybe they're a Perky Goth). Perhaps their eyes are watering but it's actually Onion Tears or Tears of Joy or an object stuck in the eye or something similar. They may even invoke it by deliberately pretending to be sad, sometimes through pretending to cry. On the other hand, they might be expressing their happiness readily, but other people think that they're lying. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Quite often, the plot will involve one or more characters trying to cheer the other one up (often without talking to them about it) before learning the truth, perhaps learning An Aesop about not jumping to conclusions. Or perhaps, the reason the character has been so standoffish lately is that they've been working on something, which they reveal at a pivotal moment. Occasionally, it's revealed that they were behaving oddly because they were sick, injured, or (especially with female pets) pregnant. Compare Mistaken for Suicidal and Bait-and-Switch Sentiment. Contrast Sand In My Eyes. Can happen as a result of Out-of-Context Eavesdropping or lead to a subversion of Cheer Up Episode (which is usually a "Shaggy Dog" Story). |

Fullmetal Alchemist: Mustang thinks back to Hughes' funeral, and remembers seeing Bradley's hands shaking in what he assumed was grief. While Mustang recounts it to Bradley, the fuhrer corrects him and explains his hands were shaking because he was barely containing his aggravation over Hughes' daughter's cries. | |

Sesame Street: When Telly's hamster Chuckie begins behaving less actively, he thinks Chuckie is sad, but it turns out that she is actually female and about to give birth. In one skit, Ernie isn't letting Bert into their shared apartment. Bert speculates on why this is the case, at one point wondering if Ernie is sad and wanting to be alone so he can sulk. It turns out, however, that Ernie was perfectly happy, and was in fact planning a Surprise Party. |

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: To demonstrate that Holt's mood is impossible to determine, a flashback showed Rosa comment that Holt seems down and asked him if he had a rough weekend. He actually just came back from vacation with his husband and had never felt better. Inverted in the same episode when Terry thinks Holt seems chipper, but actually there was a fire in Holt's home and he was devastated. Later Terry paints a picture of Holt which was meant to look serious, Holt is impressed that Terry was able to make him look so happy. | |

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl: In "Tears for Fears!", Chimchar wails Tears of Joy after Ash praises him for doing his best in a practice session. Ash is confused by his reaction and seems to think he's sad, but Brock points out that Chimchar is just releasing everything he's been holding back because he wasn't allowed to display any huge emotions around Paul (his former trainer who was abusive to him). | |

Sarah & Duck: In one episode, called "Cheer Up, Donkey", the main characters meet a donkey, who they believe is sad. After several failed attempts at cheering him up, however, it turns out that he just looks that way all the time (which, according to the book Sarah was reading, is normal for donkeys). | |

The Loud House: In "Home of the Fave", Lynn Sr. fears that his children think he's playing favourites, and while most of them really were unhappy (albeit for a different reason), this is played straight with Lincoln (who was simply looking at Lynn Sr. to acknowledge him) and Lucy (who frowns all the time anyway). In "Back Out There", Clyde, Liam, Rusty, and Zach think Lincoln is feeling down about Ronnie Anne moving because he's been frequenting her old house, so they stealthily try to cheer him up, and they even give him a vacation. He says he's not upset, but they don't believe him and make him catch the bus. Then Ronnie Anne calls them and reveals that he wasn't distraught after all, he's been going to her house often because he wanted to get a package she sent for him there. |

Rugrats: In "Family Tree", Chas sees Tommy playing on his own and believes that he's suffering from separation anxiety as the result of his parents being away. Actually, he just happens to be trying to retrieve a toy that had rolled under the hedge. In "Mutt's in a Name", the Finsters' puppy is lethargic, and everyone thinks she's having an identity crisis due to not being named, but actually she has a tummy ache because she swallowed a puzzle piece. In "Happy Taffy", the kids think Taffy is unhappy when they hear her playing off-key music, although she's really just struggling with songwriter's block. They spend the rest of the episode trying to find ways to cheer her up, like giving her "toys" (read: trash) and dancing for her. |

South Park: In "The Death of Eric Cartman", one of the events that make Cartman think he's dead is the sight of some men carrying something heavy out of his house, which is actually plumbers replacing a toilet that he broke with a massive dump. He then hears what sounds like his mother sobbing as she mourns her son, but she's actually having sex with one of the plumbers. In "Tonsil Trouble", Kyle hears that Cartman has HIV thanks to a mishap from a tonsillectomy, so he excuses himself to leave the room and bursts out laughing. Butters overhears this and thinks he's crying. |

In the Warrior Cats book River of Fire, Alderheart goes to sit outside when he can't sleep. The usually grumpy Jayfeather comes up to him and, thinking that Alderheart's lovesick for Velvet and considering leaving the Clan, starts praising Alderheart and telling him how much the Clan needs him. Alderheart tries to interrupt several times, and finally at the end explains that he had no intention of leaving and that he was simply deciding how to say goodbye to her. Jayfeather awkwardly thanks him and goes back to bed. | |

Fire Emblem Awakening: Possibly with Henry in the English release. In his B support with Olivia, she assumes that he's a Stepford Smiler, but he insists that his constant smiles are genuine. In the Japanese version, however, this is averted, as he really is faking his cheerful demeanor, but the English version seems to lean more towards him being a happy person who has major Blood Lust. | |

The Tangerine Bear: Tangie, the titular character, is a Perpetual Frowner due to his mouth having been sewn on upside down, but he's still cheerful overall. Some characters mistake his permanent frown for being gloomy. | |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: In "Peak Performance", after losing a game, Data starts spending a lot of time in his quarters by himself. Troi and Pulaski think he's just being a Sore Loser, but in actuality, he doesn't even have emotions, being an android. The reason he was sitting in his quarters was that he believed his loss was caused by a malfunction. | |
