Or Was It a Dream?	comment	Sometimes, at the end of a Dream Sequence, Dream Episode, or an All Just a Dream episode, after the character in question has woken up and demonstrated any Aesop that the dream might have been communicating, there's some small hint that it wasn't a dream after all, even though it quite obviously was... right? That hint is often a Fantasy Keepsake, some kind of small object from the "dream world" that was given to the character there, innocently sitting on the bedside table. This kind of ending is quite often used by young children to create a Twist Ending, and as such it's fairly hard to execute well as a more mature writer, since it's considered a bit of a clichÃ© by some, and some detractors even consider it a Dead Horse Trope. Still, Tropes Are Not Bad, and when done well such an ending can be used very effectively. May be an example of The Ending Changes Everything, though those are usually even more of a Mind Screw. SchrÃ¶dinger's Butterfly may apply to what was, is, and will be the dream, and which one is real. Related to Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane, in that the mundane explanation has to be dreaming, yet it is not a subtrope, since not every Or Was it a Dream? scenario touches on the supernatural. Not to be confused with That Was Not a Dream, which is when a character talks about a dream they just had and is then told that they weren't dreaming. If the dream was a nightmare, and it's subverted by having it turn out to be a dream after all, see Shock-and-Switch Ending. Compare Real After All, Here We Go Again!, and The End... Or Is It? As with all Ending Tropes, beware of spoilers.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_114401d2	comment	In the first three seasons of Pretty Little Liars, Posthumous Character Alison would occasionally appear to her friends under circumstances where the friend would think they were dreaming or hallucinating, but always either left something behind that indicated she was really there or did something that, regardless of the ambiguous circumstances, someone obviously did (e.g., rescuing Emily from suffocation). In the fourth season, the girls are sufficiently unsure if Alison's actually dead or alive that they're determined to figure out which it is. She's alive, and all her appearances (except one that was an obvious figment of Hanna's imagination) were real.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_11b7db91	comment	Adventure Time: In the episode "Puhoy", Finn apparently discovers a portal to a pillow dimension in Jake's pillow fort. He tries to find a way back to his dimension, but eventually settles down with a pillow woman, has half-pillow kids, grows old, and dies. After he dies, he ends up a black void where a big red monster is floating, before being transported back to his world, having only been gone about an hour, and immediately forgets about his life in the pillow dimension, suggesting the whole thing was just a dream. However, this monster is the first appearance of GOLB, the God of Chaos, who Finn had no prior knowledge of and becomes much more important to the story later on, implying the experience wasn't as much a dream as it seemed...

This makes it appear to have been a prophetic dream. It's actually an inversion of that trope—it happened in the past, a previous timeline that Madoka only remembers subconsciously.

Many theorists have come to the conclusion that The Unknown is in between life and death, a limbo.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_18acb3a5	comment	The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: In a Halloween themed episode Will Smith wakes up from his nightmare (where he was "hexed" into causing horrible luck to everyone around him causing him to thrown out of the house) and goes to breakfast. At the breakfast table, every character repeats the exact same lines they said in the first scene of that episode with Will realizing this and trying to convince them to say other things and finally culminating in a Big "NO!". It's a very Groundhog Day moment for Will. In another episode Will breaks Jazz's concentration during a poker game by telling him a story about having witnessed a murder forcing him to go into Witness Protection in Alabama. He admits the lie to Jazz and makes off with his money...only for the killer to later suddenly show up in front of Will. Will runs...and it turns out to be Jazz in disguise (somehow looking EXACTLY like the killer Will imagined).

The narrator Ben Plotz isn't happy about this and eventually finds out that Sheep is the real villain, was actually able to talk, and intended to use Ben in a narrator-powered ray gun. In the end, Ben wakes up and concludes that it was just a dream, but looks down to see that he really is in a narrator-powered ray gun. This twist wasn't acknowledged at all in the second season.

Little Joe has quite the time convincing the townfolk they have to help him. In the battle to come, Little Joe is knocked off his horse. When he comes to, he's laying in the desert with his family nearby saying they'd been looking for him for days. When Little Joe tells them what happened, his father tells him the town is a ghost town that no one has lived for years. He takes his family back to the town to prove it's real, only to find abandoned buildings. Joe's brothers are convinced he had heat stroke and hallucinated it all. Ben says it doesn't matter; they're all back together and going home. Joe saddles up, ready to go, and realizes he still has his sheriff's badge.

It's a bit of a tall tale involving Vulcans meeting humans well before historical First Contact; Archer likens it to hearing that Neil Armstrong wasn't really the first man on the moon. They end up suspecting T'Pol made the whole thing up, and her vague answers seem to confirm this. But then we see her in her quarters contemplating T'Mir's handbag. T'Pol also claims in the episode that her ancestor "invented" Velcro by selling a Vulcan pouch with the fastener to a businessman.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_257f783b	comment	The Cars Toons series of Pixar Shorts actually all end this way. Here are all the examples: "Rescue Squad Mater": Nurse GTO visits Radiator Springs. "Mater the Greater": Lug and Nutty (Mater's assistant pitties) can be seen cleaning up the mess Mater made at the very beginning of the short. "El Materdor": The bulldozers notice Lightning McQueen and start chasing him. The two ladies appear behind Mater as well. "Tokyo Mater": DJ can be seen attending the dance party at the end of the short (there was a car shaped like him that appeared in the background several times). Also, several cars from this short, such as Kabuto, the short's villain, actually make cameo appearances in Cars 2. However for some reason, Kabuto somehow got all of his modifications back even though he lost them (as a result of him losing to Mater) at the end of this short. "UFM: Unidentified Flying Mater": Mater flies away as if he was a UFO. "Heavy Metal Mater": The inflatable Mater from the concert at the end of the short flies past Radiator Springs. "Monster Truck Mater": Tormentor's biggest fan visits Radiator Springs. "Moon Mater": Captain Roger the Space Shuttle flies away with Mater. "Mater: Private Eye": A colorized Carmen (the waitress at the nightclub Mater visited in the short) visits Radiator Springs. "Air Mater": The Falcon Hawks fly Mater away.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_2bbcacd9	comment	Looney Tunes cartoons "Water, Water Every Hare". At the end of the cartoon, Bugs Bunny wakes up in his bed and thinks the events of the cartoon were all just a dream. Then Gossamer, who Bugs had made small earlier, comes in on a boat his size and says, "Oh yeah? That's what you think!" "Knight-Mare Hare", in which during the dream portion Bugs had turned the wizard Merlin into a horse. When Bugs comes out of it, he sees a farmer calling his very similar-looking horse "Merlin". "Scrap Happy Daffy": Daffy thinks his encounter with a submarine full of Nazi saboteurs was just a dream. Then he hears the Nazis call out from atop a pile of junk "Next time you dream, include us out!" "The Aristo-Cat": the cat wakes up in his bed and says "What a terrible dream." Then the mice and dog appear in bed with him. "Rocket-bye Baby": A Panicky Expectant Father has a crazy dream about accidentally bringing home a Martian baby, where he and his wife eventually receive an ultimatum from the Martians that they will return his human son (which they've taken to calling "Yob") in exchange for the Martian tyke. Unfortunately, the Martian baby has built his own little flying saucer, and returns to the Martian mothership on his own. Dad, trying to catch him, falls from a high window, yelling for them to return his human baby. He then awakens from the nightmare to find himself back in the waiting room and seeing the nurses wheel his perfectly normal son in. The cartoon ends with a close-up of the baby wearing a bracelet that says "YOB". "The Wearing O' The Grin": Porky has a nightmare in which two leprechauns accuse him of planning to steal their pot of gold and sentence him to "the wearing o' the green shoes". This inspires Porky to hastily leave the castle where he'd been planning to stay the night... upon which the caretaker reveals he really is the two leprechauns in a long coat, who congratulate each other on scaring off a trespasser. "The Mouse That Jack Built" is a parody depicting Jack Benny and the cast of his show as mice. (Voiced by themselves — including Mel Blanc). At the end, a live-action Jack Benny wakes up from dreaming the entire short. He directly addresses the audience how silly the dream was — only for his animated mouse counterpart to suddenly pop up.

He almost gets a Heroic BSoD (he snaps out of it pretty quickly) when he briefly spots the witch flying on her broom.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_2f3d08a7	comment	Dennis the Menace: In "The Wizzer of Odd", after Alice reads Dennis the story of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Dennis has a dream that parodies the story, with his friends in the roles of the story's characters. When Dennis first arrives in the land of Odd, he meets the Munchies (the equivalent of the Munchkins). The episode ends with Dennis awakening from his dream and telling his parents about it, and after they leave, the Munchies can be seen eating cookies in Dennis' toy box. In "3D and Me", Dennis, Joey, and Tommy go to the movie theater to see Submarine of the Future, a movie they've seen 15 times before. On their way to see the beginning of the film, they cut in line in front of a man several times. During the movie, Dennis falls asleep and has a dream where he becomes the captain of the naval submarine, which a spy tries to destroy with explosives. Dennis recognizes the spy as the man he cut in front of in line, and is awarded a medal for saving the sub. When Dennis awakens from his dream, he discovers that his feet are wet, which he assumes is from having spilled his soda, but then he discovers that he still has his medal with him. The man Dennis cut in front of in line then discovers that his feet are wet as well.

The movie opens with someone being pursued in a dark alley by cannibals before waking up in a water tank. Most of the film then takes place in an Old, Dark House where they investigate paranormal occurrences, start hallucinating, and discover alien parasites that burrow in people's chests. At the end the female lead wakes up back in the laboratory after experiencing her own death. All seems normal until she tries to leave and finds herself back in the alien cave again. Like SchrÃ¶dinger's Butterfly, she doesn't know if she's still dreaming or lost her sanity completely.

Unfortunately, the Martian baby has built his own little flying saucer, and returns to the Martian mothership on his own. Dad, trying to catch him, falls from a high window, yelling for them to return his human baby. He then awakens from the nightmare to find himself back in the waiting room and seeing the nurses wheel his perfectly normal son in. The cartoon ends with a close-up of the baby wearing a bracelet that says "YOB".

He looks for Mario, and finds him in another room, still looking at the poop in shock. Luigi is excited to see the latter, until the doorbell rings. Luigi opens the door, and is shocked to find some characters from his dream (whom Mario thinks are his friends): a few of the Luigi lookalikes, the old man who found his hat, the Dorito Guy and the cop. They then beat up Luigi and shove him into a stove. A picture of Dorito Guy's Dorito bag underwater is then shown, accompanied with sad music and a message that says "in memorial of the lost dorito bag, 2013-2013", ending the video. In "Dreams", after the Toads steal Mario's clothes (making him naked), he wakes up back at the roof of the castle where the blooper started, revealing the whole blooper to be All Just a Dream (including Mario's own dreams). However, at the very end of the blooper, he drives on a boost pad which catapults him away, similar to his fates earlier on the blooper. In "A Trip to Teletubby Land", a few moments after SMG4 wakes him up, Mario hears a shady noise inside the castle, which turns to be a fact that the pipes weren't fixed yet. In "Ssenmodnar 5", after Mario thanks SMG4 for saving him from his Acid Reflux Nightmare, the latter's head is replaced with that of Toad.

He ends up saving the land from an usurper, finds a Love Interest, and is knighted by the Queen. Just then, the Queen shouts "clear!", and Jamal is shocked with defibrillator paddles by a paramedic who looks like the Queen. He assumes it was all a dream, but the experience turns his life around (he goes from a slacker out for easy money to a hard-working man with dreams who is taking night classes as the local community college). Six months later, he forgets the "dream" and meets a woman who looks remarkably like Victoria, his Love Interest from the "dream", whom he called Vicky. Unlike Vicky, Nicky speaks with an (over-the-top) American accent. He appears to recognize her from somewhere but can't remember where (he assumes he must've seen her at the community college where she works). He then notes a scar on her neck in the same place where Sir Percival drew Victoria's blood in the "dream". Nicky can't remember where she got the scar, only that it was a long time ago. He ends up chasing after her, falling into the same moat... and getting up in Ancient Grome being chased by lions in the Colosseum.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_41d55d7a	comment	The original Total Recall (1990) plays with this extensively. The protagonist Quaid goes to a place called Rekall, which can implant fake memories for people looking for an adventure but unable to actually have one. He wants a spy story, and he gets one — he wakes up in the same place, but now he's apparently accessed suppressed memories of actually being a spy and is being chased by other spies. He later encounters someone who claims to be from Rekall telling him that he's still in a virtual reality experience, but it's gone wrong and if he doesn't snap out of it he'll have to be lobotomized. And the films ends with a fade to white, in which he wakes up in his chair and asked if he enjoyed his vacation. So was it all a fake memory, or wasn't it? There's a lot of evidence in the film either way: A lot of questions are raised by Quaid waking up screaming that the Rekall people blew his cover, the only time we see Quaid's "Hauser" persona outside of Quaid looking at a screen. Is this real or not? But if it's not real, where does it fit into the whole Rekall experience? The escapade to Mars is part of Quaid's scenario if you look closely, and the specific title, "Blue Skies on Mars", foreshadows how Quaid restores the Martian atmosphere and turns the sky blue. Most of the characters whom Quaid meets on Mars appear in the movie sequences before the Rekall experience — even Quaid's Love Interest, who greatly resembles a news reporter Quaid spots on Earth. But not all of the characters do. The main doctor may or may not also be foreshadowing when he mentions "crooked taxi drivers". Quaid is asked to describe a Love Interest for his fake memories when he first goes to Rekall. The woman he creates, "model 41", bears a near-perfect resemblance to the one we see on Mars. As for his actual wife, she seems oddly preoccupied with flushing the idea of a trip to Mars out of Quaid's head, as if she knows about Quaid's psychological issues — which makes a lot more sense if she's actually in league with the spies chasing Quaid in the "dream". The lobotomy threat adds an extra layer on it — was he lobotomized or not? Even if it was a dream, did it really go wrong and end with his lobotomy, or was that all part of the dream, too?

At the end of the novel, Death states that the events of the novel had happened, but also not happened. The guy who was the center of it all had been a rock star, and at the same time worked at a fish-and-chip takeaway.

After collecting all of the shards, the ghost apologizes for his actions and Mickey invites him to come along back to his room. When Mickey returns to his sleeping body and wakes up the next morning, he dismisses the events as only a dream and left the room, but did not notice the ghost hanging around the ceiling fan.

After being bitten by the vampire Dala, vampire!Batman turns almost all the members of the Justice League into vampires. The Martian Manhunter moves their base close enough to the Sun to incinerate them. However the scene cuts to black and then to Batman waking up, back to normal. He looks at Jason Bard and Martian Manhunter, saying that it was nothing but a hallucination caused by Dalaâ€™s bite. It's unknown if Batmanâ€™s experience as a vampire was just a dream or real.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_5319ce6c	comment	The Spy X Family NSFW doujin "Whether Asleep or Awake" tells how Loid has been having erotic dreams involving Yor for the past several days, and is starting to wonder if he's falling in love with her. After accomplishing a mission with Frankie and parting ways after sharing a celebratory drink at a bar, Loid walks home and thinks of hiring a prostitute to "blow off some steam," but decides against it and goes home where he's grateful to have a family welcoming him back. After they put Anya to bed, Loid and Yor go to their respective bedrooms to sleep, and sometime later, Loid wakes up to find Yor naked and asking him to have sex. Thinking he's having a lucid dream Loid gets overly frisky to the point Yor gets nervous and knocks him to the ground by kicking him in the face, and after she apologizes for hurting him, they climb back onto the bed and have sex, falling asleep when they finish. The following morning, Loid wakes up and concludes the dreams mean that he is in love with Yor and decides to confess his feelings for her, but before he can say anything, Yor serves him a cup of tea. When Loid notices the tea tastes different, he asks Yor about it and she responds that a coworker went abroad for vacation and gave her the tea as a souvenir. When Loid sees the packaging, it's advertised to boost sex drive and after they finish their drinks, Yor strips down and comes on to him again, making him wonder if he's still asleep.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_53a0bd32	comment	The Twilight Zone (1959): In the episode "Where Is Everybody?", a man finds himself trapped in a deserted town. The Twist Ending is that the man is an Air Force pilot training for astronaut duty in an isolation booth, and he hallucinated the entire experience. When Rod Serling adapted "Where Is Everybody?" for a book of short stories based on his Twilight Zone scripts, he changed the ending slightly: after the pilot leaves the isolation booth, he inexplicably finds a ticket from a movie theater in the empty town in his pocket. In "King Nine Will Not Return", a former pilot hallucinates that he's in the North African desert at the site where his WW2 bomber crashed (he didn't go on the bombing mission because he was ill). When he's brought to a hospital, the doctors find desert sand in his shoes.

Nana licks her to wake her and she yawns before immediately telling her parents about what had happened (John and Michael, meanwhile, are still asleep and Nana and Mrs. Darling simply readjust their duvets). A pirate ship made of clouds sails across the moon shortly thereafter, only for the wind to break it into clouds itself. In the end it's left ambiguous whether Wendy and her brothers really did fly to Neverland or whether Wendy just dreamed it — although George, watching the ship, says he knows he's seen it before.

Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld has Doraemon and Nobita finding statues of themselves which suddenly appeared in their house during a dark and stormy night, and wondering if they both had the same bad dream. It turns out later in the story that those statues are their future selves, trying to escape Demon Lord Demaon's minions via Time Machine by escaping to the past, only to suffer a Taken for Granite fate. Doraemon: Nobita and the Animal Planet has Nobita sleepwalking into the titular planet via a portal of gas which inexplicably opened up in his bedroom. Nobita saw the residents of the other world, all of them andromorphic animals, picks up a flower, and makes his way back through the portal into his house before falling asleep outside the toilet. He dismisses the whole thing as a dream, but later Nobita sees the same flower he collected in a bottle. Doraemon: Nobita and the Tin Labyrinth has Nobita's father, Nobisuke, making reservations with the Hotel Burinkin while dozing off one night, and thinking he dreamt the whole thing up after looking through a number of travel guides and realizing there's no such hotel on earth. But later on, the mysterious briefcase from Hotel Burinkin arrives at Nobita's household, which Nobita found before his father did, at which point it turns out Hotel Burinkin is a facility on another planet. Doraemon: Great Adventure in the Antarctic Kachi Kochi has Nobita collecting Carla's enchanted bracelet after a short Antarctic adventure, before seeing Carla, then a stranger, beckoning him in his dreams, where Nobita's inexplicably in the Antarctic in his pajamas. He manages to convince Doraemon and friends to travel to the South Pole to investigate, but then they find the ruins of an ancient city with Carla in it.

If you beat the game without dying, at the end of the credits you see the character Marin flying around. The implication in this case is not that it wasn't a dream, but that one person from the dream became real (having wished during the game to become a seagull and travel the world). The DX version changes this to a picture of Marin that fades into a seagull, which flies off. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass ends with Link waking up aboard the pirate ship he began the game in, the shipmates oblivious to the events of the entire game and insisting that only a few moments have passed, but when Link peers to the horizon, he sees the ship of his ally in the game sailing away. Oh, and he still has the titular (now empty) hourglass.

However, in the light of the results, the reasoning as for how Grandis wound up in Hypnos' building mirror the ending of Chapter 16, and even then, about the only difference between Chapter 16 and Chapter 16B onward is that Brondramon, and the subsequent collateral damage it caused, are mysteriously absent entirely. In addition, considering Enigma's Your Mind Makes It Real powers being the cause of the warped reality observed in Chapter 16B, it also apparently caused Henry, Ruki, and Takato's Partner Digimon to suddenly go rogue, and even then, Hirokazu notes his own Partner Digimon is sleeping during the day despite being of a species that would've been wide awake now. Ryo had also vanished, but that was mercifully revealed to be under rather mundane circumstances fairly quickly. However, even then, Millenniumon is still unaccounted for, as only Ryo was directly addressed. And if one recalls Grandis being The Omnipresent, and that a Reality-Breaking Paradox would occur upon his death, one could merely assume the entire universe itself had experienced a glitch in which it outright went under a reboot to solve the problem, but was only able to correct certain "mistakes" and causes numerous other glitches to appear in their places, such as the aforementioned Partner Digimon behaving out of character all of a sudden.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_7aaf9e41	comment	Batman Legends of the Dark Knight: The story "Masks" features Batman apparently in an insane asylum, having imagined all his adventures after years of homelessness when his parents' debts left him penniless. It turns out that it was all a gaslight by a psychologist who blamed Bats for his criminal father killing his mom in a murder/suicide. The second to last page throws The DCU into doubt. "Legends of the Dark Mite", has a drug-runner being interrogated by Batman trying to blame the death of his confederates on Bat-Mite, which Batman dismisses as the man's drug-addled mind hallucinating. A later story, Mite-Fall, a parody of Knightfall has Bat-Mite show up again to recruit the drug-addled man in stopping Bane-Mite. The man stops the monster, but falls victim to the creature's drug "Toxik", sniffs it and his head explodes. While the ending suggests that it was probably a Dying Dream due to the man getting high on drugs and throwing himself off the top of a church, killing him, the last page shows Bat-Mite and other Mite-type heroes mourning him with a statue, which casts into question if the previous events really were real.

And the cut on her cheek that Annie received from the Ghost briefly reappeared, visible to a girl who sees things that shouldn't be there. It eventually turned out that the spirits who escort the dead arranged for Annie to receive the blinker stone so that she could help free the ghost to pass on.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_7c63d7e	comment	The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is the story of an old dreamer, and it takes the trope to new levels. Throughout the movie, the city has been besieged, with cannon-fire falling like rain and a sense of doom in the air. Its titular Baron finishes his ridiculous yet hilarious and moving yarn by stating that though he died, Death is Cheap to him and "everyone who had a talent for it lived Happily Ever After." He then mounts his horse and rides out of the city, which is as it had never been attacked. The townspeople are in awe, but his most devoted listener, Sally, states in wonder that, "It wasn't just a story, was it?". The Baron waves to them as he vanishes as if he was never there.

If you beat the game without dying, at the end of the credits you see the character Marin flying around. The implication in this case is not that it wasn't a dream, but that one person from the dream became real (having wished during the game to become a seagull and travel the world). The DX version changes this to a picture of Marin that fades into a seagull, which flies off.

In this state, she finds a critical clue just as she is brought back to consciousness. She wakes up thinking of a hint that leads to the clue, but no memory of how she got it. Horatio Caine figures that she saw it before she was injured, and her subconscious brought it to the forefront while she was in a coma. And that would be the accepted explanation...

As it turns out, for most of the episode it was All Just a Dream; Fry isn't really dead and Leela is in a fevered coma.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_a39e837a	comment	The PokÃ©mon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team manga ended with Ginji, who had been turned into a Torchic, waking up as a human again. He thinks it was a dream but he soon finds the badge that he received in the PokÃ©mon world. The one problem with this idea is that the beginning of the story shows Ginji searching for his hidden birthday present, which he never found... the present may be the badge, making the adventure All Just a Dream after all.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_a506a38b	comment	In Wayne's World 2, the story gets kicked off by Wayne having a dream where a "weird, naked Indian" walks him through the desert to a meeting with Jim Morrison. Jim tells Wayne that he should put on an outdoor concert in Aurora, IL, and that he should go to London to seek out Del Preston, King of the Roadies, to ask him for his help. Also that Garth's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and Football Phone got lost in the mail and that Garth will be be receiving both shortly. When Wayne wakes up in the morning, Garth shows up with the phone and swimsuit issue. Later, when they find Del, he tells them he had the same dream Wayne did.note This bit was adapted from Saturday Night Live, where more than once Wayne and Garth would emerge from a Flex-O-Tron vision to discover that one aspect of it had crept into real life.

A man named Big Bill Holbrook claims to serve as the dream avatar of Andrew Faulk of Glendale, California. He encounters the Saint in the High Sierras. Holbrook claims that the personages from a recurring dream Faulk had have started to manifest in the waking world. Templar takes a jewel off of Holbrook. When thugs searching for Holbrook open fire on Templar, he loses consciousness. When he awakens later, he has no injuries, but still feels the jewel he took from Holbrook in his pocket. When he searches for Andrew Faulk in Glendale, he discovers that Faulk died after slipping into a coma. Templar intends to show Faulk's widow the jewel from Holbrook, but it has disappeared from his pocket.

Ransom falls ill after his return to Earth from Mars, and afterwards considers the possibility that his entire adventure on Mars was actually a fever dream. The argument isn't enough to convince him, but it's enough to make him realize that no one will believe his story, so he decides to keep it all to himself. Then a colleague finds a reference to Oyarsa (who Ransom spoke with on Mars) in a 12th century manuscript, and this convinces Ransom to tell his story.

Then takes advantage of the situation by having them strip naked, though he covers Aki's nipples and nether region with heart shaped pasties. It lasts long enough for Usui to feel both of them upnote Espada was sober and said she was perfectly willing until he finally passes out from his nosebleed. When he awakes in the school infirmary and sees Aki is fully clothed, he laments that he had only dreamt it. But, after he leaves, one of the pasties is seen in the trashbin and Aki is visibly disturbed, suggesting the incident might've actually happened.

Wayne wakes up and declares "It was just a dream...[sees the grocery bags from the fantasy on the floor]...OR WAS IT? WOOOOAAAHHHH!" Another one has a dream sequence parodying Madonna's "Justify My Love" video, with Garth in tight black clothing doing a pelvic-thrusting dance to show off his bulge, just like the dancer in the original. After the dream ends, Garth's still dressed the same, and they repeat their "OR WAS IT?" ending as above, this time with Garth jumping up and resuming dancing.

Gonzo, however, is satisfied with not knowing his species and they drink milkshakes. It ends with Fozzie shaking Gonzo awake, indicating it was a dream, but then Gonzo states that he is not hungry because he's just had the milkshake.

Upon seemingly waking up back in time, being treated as a patient in the asylum, she quickly deduces that it's some kind of nightmare brought about by guilt regarding an argument she had with Dib (over his beliefs making people think he's crazy), which appears to be confirmed when she wakes up from the ordeal back in the present. However, just before she and Dib leave the asylum, she thinks she sees the ghost of another patient she befriended during the "nightmare"; combined with an earlier comment by Dib about the asylum's ghosts giving people hallucinations, it's unclear just how much paranormal activity was at play here.

A later story, Mite-Fall, a parody of Knightfall has Bat-Mite show up again to recruit the drug-addled man in stopping Bane-Mite. The man stops the monster, but falls victim to the creature's drug "Toxik", sniffs it and his head explodes. While the ending suggests that it was probably a Dying Dream due to the man getting high on drugs and throwing himself off the top of a church, killing him, the last page shows Bat-Mite and other Mite-type heroes mourning him with a statue, which casts into question if the previous events really were real.

In "This Was Your Life", Ben dreads the idea of having his tonsils removed — leading Ben to state that he doesn't "want to be a Seaver". After a cab driver brings him home, he discovers that his life was replaced with that of another boy. After waking up from his surgery, he sees the boy who replaced him on a gurney. In "Meet The Seavers", Ben is upset that his parents don't remove his punishment — even after hugging them, and saying that he loves them. As a result, he wishes that he could be in a TV show. He then finds himself on the set of Meet the Seavers — which is very similar to, well, Growing Pains. After he wakes up, he's relieved to be home. However, after turning on the television set, Mike/Kirk begs Ben to let him out.

Or Was It a Dream? / int_cbeea762	comment	Russian band Otava Yo's video for the song Ð§Ñ‚Ð¾ Ð·Ð° Ð¿ÐµÑ�Ð½Ð¸ (What Songs) has an eerie, haunting, other-world association about it, beginning in relative normality and introducing more and more surreal elements. The young man on a long bus ride is seen to drop off to sleep and wake up several times, suggesting he is only dreaming of the beautiful girl who keeps appearing and disappearing., as well as the repeated nightmarish elements that keep preventing him from getting closer to the girl. The suggestion is that he is trapped in dreams-within-dreams, nested Matryoshka Objects. However, he is certainly wide-awake for the denouement, at the side of a lake in the cold drab light of dawn.

The narrator, who had actually said "All just a dream", then says "Or was it?", as the camera zooms in to a necklace hanging out of the woman's drawer. The woman then walks over and opens it and there's the severed hand—which closes around the necklace.

That is to say, the man will have a ghastly nightmare, then as the most horrible part plays out, will startle awake and sigh in relief... only to realize he's in a worse nightmare. And suddenly wake up, etc... forever. As fates worse than death go, this is pretty bad. A few years later, however, when that iteration of Dream dies, the guy wakes up. For real. Presumably as a result of some belated mercy, he is not a completely psychotic broken shell of a man — instead he eventually simply forgets his dream(s).

Or Was It a Dream? / int_dbaabb61	comment	A couple of Mickey Mouse games pull off this trope in the endings of certain games: In Land of Illusion, Mickey falls asleep while reading a book of fairy tales, and has a dream where he winds up in the world from its stories, which is being ruled by an evil sorcerer called the Phantom. At the end of the game, after defeating the Phantom and recovering the magical crystal he stole, Mickey is rewarded with a kiss from the Good Princess Minnie. After the game's closing credits sequence, Mickey wakes up with lipstick marks on his cheek. In Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, a similar thing happens as in the above example, except he fell asleep while in bed, and is magically transported to the Kingdom of Beanwick to help solve the earthquake crisis. After finding out that the earthquakes are caused by a snoring giant, he awakens the giant with an alarm clock and befriends him. When Mickey wakes up back in bed, he took a gander at his book to see how it ended, and to his surprise it ended exactly how it did prior, leaving Mickey confused. In Disney's Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse, a ghost from a parallel universe lures an astral projection of Mickey while he's asleep in bed to his own world, trapping Mickey within the mirror world while the ghost shatters the mirror and sends its pieces flying across the mansion. After collecting all of the shards, the ghost apologizes for his actions and Mickey invites him to come along back to his room. When Mickey returns to his sleeping body and wakes up the next morning, he dismisses the events as only a dream and left the room, but did not notice the ghost hanging around the ceiling fan.

The movie also presented a hint that it WAS real: namely Ophelia getting out of a locked second floor room. The camera shows the chalk 'door' she drew and used to get out according to Word of God. The ending would be impossible if it wasn't for the magic. The Labyrinth must open to Ophelia for her to get away from Captain Vidal that quickly, leaving him confused at the dead end.

Then, she nearly drowns and a Crampy saves her, kisses her, and "Aunt Flo" melts and she wakes up having actually gotten her first period.

At the end he is revived, and all is back to normal... except a paramedic who looks just like Merlin is there, the bride of the guy he saved also looks like a woman from the dream and the paramedic has scissors and a pocket knife just like Mac's. He then reaches for his pocket (presumably for the knife) and an object from the dream is inexplicably there. Hmmm... This was a bit of a self-parody, since the show was already notorious for reusing actors of minor characters in very obvious ways, for no other reason than cheapness. A similar plot happens earlier, when he dreams of being in the Old West, and then wakes up and finds the bullet-holed Swiss army knife that saved his life in the dream. This may have been a reference to the Bugs Bunny Looney Tunes ep. listed below in the Western Animation section, which involved Merlin the wizard being changed into a horse.

But it's more ambiguous than that, because the main character, Dom, has a talisman that continues spinning indefinitely if he's in a dream, but eventually stops spinning if he's in real life. So, naturally, the last scene of the film shows the talisman spinning. And ends before we find out whether it stops.
