A comedy gag where a character gets a warning to not perform a certain act or a heads-up about something nasty coming his way, but just too late for it to be useful. Either disaster has already occurred or it's too late to take the action back, and the disaster is moments away. Sometimes, for extra silliness, the nature of the warning is obscured until the discouraged action is taken, such as a message on the screen that warns you not to read the screen. Alternatively, the warned character might refuse to listen to the message until they're done with what they're doing... which is exactly what the warning was to be about. Can also be Played for Drama, often creating a very stinging sense of irony. It can also overlap with Remembered Too Late. Compare Can't You Read the Sign?, Cue Card Pause and You Didn't Ask, Poor Communication Kills. |

In Over the Garden Wall, the first few episodes have Wirt, Greg and Beatrice trying to find a witch named Adelaide who can seemingly get the former two back home and restore the latter to her human self. It ultimately turned out to be a trap, as Beatrice was just using the boys as bargaining chips to resolve her own problem, with the witch wanting to enslave the boys. The boys manage to beat Adelaide and end up meeting an old woman and her niece in the following episode. After solving that episode's dilemma, as the two prepare to continue their journey, the old woman reveals that Adelaide is her evil sister and to avoid her at all costs. Wirt's expression, understandably, has this trope all over it. | |

During the shooting of The Empire Strikes Back, this was practically director Irv Kirschner's catchphrase whenever one of the special effects failed spectacularly. R2-D2 is skidding all over the place? We didn't test to see if it could run on the artificial snow of the Echo Base set. One of the X-Wing's wings snapping off while Yoda is lifting it from the swamp, in full view of a horrified George Lucas? We forgot to test if the model could withstand being underwater. "Now you tell me!" Irv would snap. | |

Angel: Variation in "Epiphany". Cordelia is snooping around an empty house when she has a vision of being attacked by a big ugly demon. As she recovers from the headache, she turns around and finds herself face to face with the very same. "Real helpful!" * Concussion* In "Over the Rainbow", when the gang travels through a portal to another dimension, Wesley is glad that they made it without merging into a freakish four-man Siamese Twin. Gunn says in horror, "That was a risk!?" |

Looney Tunes: The cartoon "Tick Tock Tuckered" has Porky and Daffy efforting to not be late for work with the threat of termination looming over their heads. They arrive to their workplace on time, only to find a sign that says that it's closed because it's Saturday. (Daffy: "Mmmm... now he tells me!") Similarly done in the short's original edition, "Porky's Badtime Story" (with Porky and Gabby Goat, where they just shrug). Daffy gets another in the Merrie Melodies short "Don't Axe Me". He's about to get cooked for dinner by Elmer and his wife, only for their guest to announce he's a vegetarian. Daffy, who at this point got all his feathers ripped off, says this and leaves in disgust. In "Tortoise Wins by a Hare", a bunch of gangster rabbits stop Bugs from crossing the finish line because of his turtle disguise and get Cecil to win because of his rabbit disguise. When Bugs takes off his disguise in front of them, the rabbits say "Mmmm...now he tells us" and proceed to shoot themselves. Also, in a Speedy Gonzales short, two cats decide to capture Speedy's cousin Slowpoke Rodriquez. One cat tries to warn him of something, but the other cat ignores it and tries to eat Slowpoke, only for the mouse to shoot him in the face. When the cat says he meant to tell him that Slowpoke's a fast shooter, the other cat says this to the camera. The Wile E Coyote And The Roadrunner cartoon "Hopalong Casualty" sees Wile E. Coyote feeding the Road Runner a bunch of Acme Earthquake Pills. When this doesn't do anything to the Road Runner, Coyote swallows the rest of the pills in disgust. Only then does he notice the small print on the bottle: "Caution: Not Effective On Road Runners". At which point the Earthquake Pills start to take effect on Coyote with (of course) hilariously disastrous consequences. In "Satan's Waitin'", when Sylvester finally wises up on his last life, and decides to go in hiding in a bank vault with food supplies so he may live quietly there for years. However, by way of Diabolus ex Machina, that bank gets robbed by two Too Dumb to Live robbers who mishandle explosives, to disastrous effect. On the Journey to the Underworld, this gem of an exchange happens: |

This Bites!: Due to Luffy disliking spoilers to his adventures, a lot of Cross's canon knowledge is held off unless it's really important. This means that for most of the minor hiccups that happen in canon, Cross just lets them play out and then tells the crew after the fact. He does use his knowledge to defuse Vivi's tendency to use this trope, though. |

In The Order of the Stick, Roy's Outer Planar girlfriend Celia gives him a talisman that would let him summon her by breaking it. When Roy was falling to his doom, he tried to break it so Celia would save him, but was unable to do so, resulting in him splatting on the ground. Later on, the talisman accidentally breaks when it ends up getting zapped by lightning, with Celia explaining that the talisman was designed to be broken by magical energy, which she assumed all humans were capable of generating. Needless to say, both Hayley and Roy's spirit are a bit annoyed. | |

In Turning Red, Mei isn't told about the fact that women in her family gain a giant red panda form when they come of age until after she transforms very publicly. She also isn't informed that repeated transformations will make the ritual to seal it away harder until after she does so several times. | |

Subverted in Saints Row: The Third. During the mission "Trojan Whores", Oleg calls to warn The Boss about a raid about to occur. However, the raid has already occurred and the call comes after the last wave has been defeated. After The Boss tells Oleg about this, he replies "I should have known you could handle a few helicopters." The helicopters haven't attacked yet. | |

Slayers uses this when the gang is hunting through a dungeon of some sort. Lina is reading warnings out of a book, and Gourry keeps picking up on the first half of the warning instead of the whole. The first warning is something like "Pressing the button... is something you should not do." For the second, Gourry doesn't press the button, but the warning is something like "Don't walk past without pressing the button." | |

In Avengers: Infinity War, Rocket only tells Thor that the Electronic Eye he gave him to replace the one he lost to Hela needs to be washed after Thor already inserted it. In Doctor Strange after getting the villains hoisted by their own petard Strange repeats a line he said earlier when caught trying a spell from a restricted tome. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: Drax shouts "Mantis, look out!" almost ten seconds after Mantis gets bashed into unconsciousness by a piece of flaming debris. |

Treasure Planet: Shortly after Jim finds and restores B.E.N.'s memory, the latter remembers that Captain Flint rigged Treasure Planet to explode if anyone found his treasure. Of course, given that the trap was sprung the second the characters entered the treasure chamber in the planet's core, where Flint held on to B.E.N.'s memory unit long after his own death to prevent him from warning anyone in the first place, this trope was the only possible outcome. | |

It turns out to be a warning to not reunite the masks in one place, as doing so would break the masks and free all the Oni Generals. Naturally, they only learn about this after they did just that. | |

As it turns out, The Keepers were created by the Abusive Precursors and will let them come into Citadel space to destroy all organic life. If you complete the side quest, you get an email in the second game that gives you this info two years after it would have been useful. But it does demonstrate that the Council is Too Dumb to Live and It's Up to You. | |

In the classic Star Trek: The Original Series episode "The Trouble with Tribbles", the seemingly uncontrollably reproducing Tribbles have just eaten the entire stock of a space station's supply of genetically engineered grain, and Kirk has ended up buried in a pile of them when he goes to check on the grain. Moments later, McCoy enters and shouts "I've got it! All we have to do is quit feeding them! We quit feeding them, they stop breeding!" A Tribble-covered Kirk replies "Now he tells me." | |

In a Sliders episode where the main characters end up in a world where magic is real. During the final fight, the Big Bad turns into a dragon and starts breathing fire, pinning the sliders and his reluctant assistant behind a table. She point to a sword on the wall and says that this is the only weapon that can kill the sorcerer. Cue Rembrandt running for the sword, only to utterly fail at moving it. He runs back, and she continues that only a Mallory can wield it. Rembrandt is visibly annoyed at the late warning. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire does this to the audience twice. There is a murder and an attempted murder which the readers have just assumed were done by Cersei and Jamie. However we later learn that they were committed by other people. The attempted murder of Bran in his sickbed was actually ordered by Joffery, who intended it as a mercy-killing, in an attempt to impress the man he thought was his father. The other one, the murder of Jon Arryn—which Eddard Stark believed was to silence him when he discovered the incestuous relationship of Cersei and Jamie—was actually committed by his wife so she could marry Littlefinger. So in fact the civil war that ripped apart the Seven Kingdoms was started by misunderstandings (which were reinforced by Littlefinger). | |

Also Eyelashes the Camel has just delivered goods to the new enemy base ... and didn't tell the Straw Hats this until they had reached the old one. Then there is hilarious end to the Skypeia saga when Conis kindly warns the crew they're about to fall...mere moments before the crew looks down and discovers nothing but 7,000 meters of sky between them and the sea below. |

In A Place Further than the Universe, Kimari, Shirase and Hinata head to Shinjuku, where some members of the civilian expedition to Antarctica will be meeting up, and plan on seducing one of the male members to get a spot on the trip. After Kimari fails miserably, Shirase vehemently refuses to try, but Hinata and Kimari shove her out of their hiding place, in front of the expedition members. Too late, they realize why Shirase refused- since she was the daughter of an expedition member who went missing (which is why she's so determined to go to Antarctica), and had tried to get into the expedition before, the expedition members recognize her. | |

She pretty much breaks down when the next quest turns out to be playing the guide to a Non-Player Character, so the group's leader gives her leave to go the frontlines of an ongoing war against the antagonist faction. Right after she leaves, the rest of the group accepts the quest and finds out it's actually an Escort Mission. | |

In Futurama, Philip J. Fry is sent to deliver a package to the Emperor of a desert planet. He drinks from the first bottle he sees when he arrives in the throne room, which turns out to be their emperor (the aliens are liquids). Thus, according to the culture's laws, he is appointed the new Emperor for having killed the previous one. The package he originally came to deliver is now for him so he opens it and finds a sign reading "don't drink the emperor", which he hangs next to dozens of the same sign in various alien languages. | |

In a different message, Cave tells the subjects to be alert for a chemical reaction that might vitrify their frontal lobes after passing through an Emancipation Grill — and also to not think about that reaction, because thinking about it induces it as well. |

At the very end, Monty himself calls out to them from his mansion and informs them that they misheard him. He was actually saying "acne" because he had developed a really bad breakout. In the episode "No Toon Is an Island", the gang's boat collides with the shore and Plucky falls out onto the beach. Then Babs calls out, "Land ho!" leading Plucky to grumble, "Now she tells me." |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer In "Fear Itself", while the gang is attempting to stop the demon possessing a Halloween haunted house, Giles reads that "there are two ways of stopping the demon from being fully summoned. Destroying the mark of Gachnar—". Buffy promptly tears up the floorboards that the symbol is painted on. Giles continues "—is not one of them and will in fact bring forth the fear demon itself." Oops. Of course, the demon in question is only six inches tall. In "Pangs", Angel rings Giles to warn that the Villain of the Week is going to attack. As Giles is already crouched behind the sofa dodging arrows, he says he already knows. |

Shuuji later visits Izaya Orihara, asking for info about the toughest person in Ikebukuro, namely Shizuo. Being that Shizuo's not one of Izaya's favorite people, he gives the man information about a friend of his, Celty Sturluson, instead. Before Mr. Niekawa leaves, Izaya gives him a rather late warning. | |
