The Cake Is a Lie	comment	There will be cake for readers at the bottom of this page. A character, usually an antagonist, promises another character, usually the hero, a reward if they can complete some task for them. This can be anything from fame, to riches, to anything to do with a Love Interest, to frosted desserts, or pretty much anything generally considered desirable. But wait! "I Lied." It turns out that there is no reward! Upon either finding this out or completing the task, it's discovered that the villain simply wanted something to be done for them, and now plans to dispose of the hero now that their usefulness to the villain has ended. At this point the villain may taunt the hero about their foolish trust. Often a crucial part of many a Macguffin Delivery Service. May make use of False Reassurance. Sometimes employed by a Mission Control that is off its meds. The "cake" may consist of a promised Body Upgrade. When the other character isn't necessarily evil, doesn't plan on hurting the hero, and simply raises their standards whenever the other character comes near to completion, this becomes Moving the Goalposts. Compare Deal with the Devil, Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves, You Said You Would Let Them Go, Released to Elsewhere. Contrast Villains Never Lie. May double as Schmuck Bait if the lackey never had a logical reason to expect cake in the first place. See also Doom as Test Prize, when there is a reward at the end... just one you really don't want. Only overlaps with I Was Told There Would Be Cake when the reward the villain promises is actually cake. Caution: Since this trope involves plot twists, spoilers may be left unmarked.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_145d53f0	comment	Five Nights at Freddy's has a very literal example of this. It's implied heavily that the killer was able to lure his unfortunate child victims into a windowless, camera-less back room by dressing up in a mascot costume and promising the kids cake and pizza if they follow him, meaning the promise he made and then didn't follow through with was literally cake.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_196199a1	comment	Averted in the Portal level of LEGO Dimensions, possibly due to the Trope Naming line becoming a Discredited Meme. Not only does the cake exist, but it's an important part of the foundation of the entire multiverse. The free-roaming Portal Adventure World has a Quest in which a minifigure adept at technologyexamples The Doctor from Doctor Who, Doc Brown from Back to the Future, Benny from The LEGO Movie can help the Cake Core bake a new cake...though the use of "fish-shaped solid waste" as an ingredient makes one wonder if it actually seems edible. In the Portal 2 level, you can, of course, find Doug Ratman's (in)famous "The Cake Is A Lie" graffiti... but instead of trailing off ominously it ends with "The cake is in the kitchen on floor 2."

The Cake Is a Lie / int_1b386512	comment	Ranma Â½: When Cologne first appears, she traps Ranma in her female form via a special pressure point that makes her unable to stand any sort of heat, including hot water. Eventually she reveals she has a special pill that can cure Ranma of her affliction, but the only way to even get it would be to master a speed based attack. Ranma ultimately is able to do so and succeeds in getting the pill from Cologne, only for Cologne to reveal that at the last minute that she'd substituted the real pill for a candy drop. The three-legged race story involves a race with the prize being a trip to China. It was a race through crazy obstacles no one could possibly get through, in short, it was meant to be unwinnable. To the organizersâ€™ shock, they underestimated the tenacity of the Nerima Wrecking Crew since to them, the stakes were very high. They then try to sabotage the last remaining contestants to prevent any of them winning to get out of honoring the China trip prize.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_254af7ac	comment	Subverted in an arc of the Namor comic from The '90s. The Super-Skrull promises Ward Meachum "the most beautiful woman in the galaxy" to betray his species. Ward accepts, but when somebody points out to him, "Even if the Skrull was going to keep his promise, what's beautiful to a reptilian alien?" he turns on the Super-Skrull, accusing the latter of betrayal. Kl'rt insists he hasn't done anything of the sort, but an enraged Ward isn't listening and the Super-Skrull kills him before he destroys a vital piece of equipment. Then we see a beautiful Skrull woman waiting to be given away to some lowly human (out of love for the Super-Skrull). The Fridge Logic is, Skrulls are shapeshifters. Kl'rt could send the ugliest woman, and she could change into the most beautiful.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: Kamp Krusty turns out to be a dangerously unsafe hellhole where the campers are forced into indentured labor. Bart only holds on to his sanity due to the promise that Krusty the Klown will eventually visit them. When "Krusty" turns out to be Barney Gumble in a terrible costume Bart finally snaps. He leads the other kids in revolting against the counsellors and taking over the facility. Used in the episode "Whacking Day". On the same day that Superintendent Chalmers is due to visit the school for an inspection, Principal Skinner curiously announces via the intercom that the five most unruly boys in the school, including Bart, have inexplicably been awarded free mountain bikes, which they are to collect from a utility room in the basement. Skinner shuts them in and locks the door, revealing what should have been obvious all along: it was just a ploy to get them out the way for the inspection (even then, Nelson asks "when are we gonna get our mountain bikes?"). Becomes a Brick Joke at the end of the episode, when Skinner suddenly realizes that all of the boys except Bart are still locked in the room; he and Willie rush to the school with a collection of mountain bikes, hoping to trade them for their silence. Bikes—in fact, hover bikes!—are used again in "The Joy of Sect," when Marge tries to cure the kids from the Movementarians' brainwashing.

After being withheld from the sea without being told the reason, Melody runs away from home after an argument with Ariel about the issue, and goes out to sea in a boat, at which point Morgana lures her to her lair, where she uses some of Ursula's magic to temporarily turn her into a mermaid and promises that if she retrieves her stolen trident in Atlantica (actually King Triton's, as the audience knows), she will use it to make her a permanent mermaid. When she does so, not only does she not honor her agreement, but she imprisons her in a cave for her to drown when her mermaid transformation wears off.

According to legend, the winner is awarded the Ultimate Prize, which is rumored to grant any wish; from large-scale destruction to, perhaps, the resurrection of a loved one. However, the true nature of the Prize is not what it appears to be. As it turns out, the prize was to be the next Avatar. The Creators of ÅŒban were an ancient race who were almost wiped out by one of their own who turned Evil. And in order to maintain the evil one, ÅŒban and the universe, a new Avatar is chosen every 10,000 years. This revelation chattered the dreams of everyone who knew about the prize's true nature.

Jack and Victoria are technicians monitoring and repairing various machinery being used by a salvage operation administrated by a massive space station called "The Tet" (due to it being roughly a tetrahedron in shape). They're constantly dealing with stragglers of the alien invaders called "Scavs". They have two weeks to go before they're done with their stint and are off to Titan themselves. There is no colony on Titan. The Tet is the alien invader, and plans on disposing of the two. The remaining "Scavs" are actually remmants of humanity. And Jack and Victoria are clones of two crewmembers of a manned international mission to Titan who were intercepted by the Tet before the invasion and used as a clone army whose original memories are lost in oblivion.

These children are raised to be fanatically loyal to Marley, and believe that if they can prove their loyalty and rack up enough military achievements, their kinsmen still living in the ghettos will be given better treatment or even freed someday. This is a complete lie, of course. Marley leverages their families to keep the Warriors in line, and uses them as disposable resources. Once their usefulness as a military asset comes to an end, Marley intends to answer the Eldian Question by exterminating them all.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_3fd5d95d	comment	Subverted in the second issue of The Batman Adventures, the animated Batman spin-off comic from the 1990s. The Joker hijacks a cable television outlet and uses it to broadcast himself onto a closed-circuit TV set delivered to Selina Kyle's apartment. After revealing that he knows Selina is Catwoman, Joker tells her that he has concocted a foolproof plan for stealing the Crown Jewels from the Tower of London, and asks her if she'd like to attempt the feat. Selina, who relishes this ultimate test of her burglary skills, still feels suspicious, even asking Joker, "What's the catch?" Turns out, Joker also wants her to snatch something else for him while she's in London (we're never told exactly what this is, but it's apparently microcircuitry or something similarly electronic). Once Selina has heard all the details, she goes through with Joker's plan—but Batman outsmarts her and manages to prevent her from swiping the jewels, and Catwoman barely escapes capture. She does, however, manage to acquire the technology Joker requested, and sends it to him at the end of the comic. (In the next issue, it's finally revealed that whatever Joker had Catwoman steal for him allows him to override every other TV station in Gotham City, so that he can broadcast his sadistic variety show on every channel.) But even though Catwoman didn't get what she wanted, Joker didn't care: she managed to get him on TV, and whether or not she also got the Crown Jewels was irrelevant. As one of the more sympathetic villains in Batman's Rogues Gallery, Catwoman tends to have this happen to her from time to time. In Batman: Hush, the trope is double-subverted when Poison Ivy puts her under a love spell in order to make her a slave for one of her schemes. Catwoman does get her...uh, "cake" - but in this case it is something she did not desire, never asked for, and is very angry about receiving once she breaks free of the mind-control.

The angel Castiel makes a deal with the demon Crowley, the agreement being that the two of them would work together to open Purgatory to harness the power of the souls there, and each would then receive half of whatever souls were found. Crowley does most of the actual work/research towards getting to Purgatory, while his partner essentially provides protection for him during his machinations. When the plan is nearing completion, however, Castiel decides that giving a demon access to that much Soul Power would be stupid, and revokes the agreement (though it's never confirmed whether this was the plan all along, or if it was a last-minute decision), denying Crowley his share of the souls. This does not end well. For Crowley.

The four had been told by the gods that if they were part of the Power Group that brought the Black Tower down, they would get their hearts' desires, which mostly meant being able to take their magic home with them under the most favorable conditions possible. They were also told that even if they weren't part of the right group, if the Black Tower fell they would at least be sent home. However, they discover they're actually in a giant telepathic MMORPG and every single thing they were told was a lie.

After several casualties caused by "training accidents," and the fact that Mimori was "disposed of," they slowly, but surely, starts to wonder if she will follow through with her promise, even if they do manage to defeat the Demon King and get said jewel.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_638624c8	comment	This occurs to Lina Inverse in the first Slayers movie. The character in question isn't evil and doesn't plan on hurting Lina per se, but it's definitely not a case of Moving The Goalposts. Needing Lina to risk her life by going back in time hundreds of years in order to save a much younger version of himself, his love, and a group of elves from a mazoku, the elderly ghost of an adventurer promises Lina to show her the location of "the fountain of growth", which she interprets, and is led on to believe, will finally make her tall, curvy, and stacked. In reality, the ghost has lied, and the fountain in question is the reverse of the fountain of youth, aging things that touch its waters to death, making Lina's trials and tribulations completely meaningless (in her eyes). However, since Lina was particularly dumb for believing him, and since he's really the ancestor of her (not-yet-encountered-yet-at-the-time) love and life-long partner Gourry, it worked out in her favor anyways.

So he tricks his avid fan Patch into helping remind him of his heroic antics on the show under the guise that it is a "junior deputy test" to see if he's capable of starring in the series with him (as Patch believes that all of the heroic stuff Thunderbolt does on the show is real). When the two of them get captured while attempting to rescue the other puppies from Cruella, Lightning cruelly reveals Thunderbolt's true intentions to Patch, to which Thunderbolt sadly confirms, much to Patch's dismay.

Not only was the fortress in question in another country, and thus not an ally, the forest itself is home to many different species of monsters. Naturally, she never expected him to survive even if he somehow made it to the other side. For the rest of the class, she promised to reward and repatriate them if they managed to do their job as soldiers well enough, after she tricked them into putting on slave-bracelets. Turns out she never planned to keep that promise either. In fact, the repatriation spell doesn't even exist. When Kento found out, he nearly killed Camilla on the spot, only sparing her because his own undead summons stopped him.

Sivana wants some bouncy-bouncy in exchange. Despite her disgust, Satanna complies, and afterwards Sivana points out that they are both "bad guys," and as long as he got his, he doesn't care that she doesn't get anything. So not only has she debased herself for nothing, he adds injury to insult by making his robots beat her up and throw her out of a fourth-story window. So not only is Sivana a complete pig, he's made Satanna's list—he'll be showing up in revenge-oriented tropes in the near future.

Newly-eligible Fabricants are even given a lavish ceremony, complete with stunning white robes, heavenly choirs, and a personal escort to the ship that will carry them off to their new home. In reality, the ship is essentially a floating abattoir: the moment Fabricants take their seats on board, they are promptly executed via cattle gun, before being unceremoniously decapitated, flayed, and rendered down into recyclable biomatter. This biomatter, by the way, is either used in the creation of more Fabricants, or to make Soap - the only food that Fabricants are allowed.

Kevin agrees to allow them to join them on a jellyfishing expedition and says that if he proves his worth he'll be allowed in the club, but in actuality just wants to see SpongeBob continuously get stung throughout the whole ordeal and run home crying for his own amusement. While SpongeBob succeeds flawlessly with all of the tests (with Kevin being the one continuously hurt), when he reaches his final test of catching a queen jellyfish, he and the other members prank SpongeBob by flying around in a giant robotic queen jellyfish bent on finishing him off. After which, they reveal their true intentions and mock SpongeBob for actually thinking they'd let him join their club. In "Band Geeks", Squidward invites the town to become his marching band, with his ads promising free refreshments. On their first night, after Squidward makes a lame joke that earns no laughter from his bandmates, Mr. Krabs asks when they will get the free food. Squidward doesn't reply. In "Moving Bubble Bass", Spongebob and Patrick are offered lunch if they agree to move Bubble Bass' furniture from his basement to his new apartment. By the time Spongebob and Patrick have finished moving the furniture, Bubble Bass claims he got so tired and hungry that he ate the lunch by himself. After Spongebob and Pat give Bubble Bass a "The Reason You Suck" Speech, the last laugh is on Bubble Bass: Spongebob and Patrick wrecked Bubble Bass' furniture and collectibles as well as packing up Bubble Bass' mom, who nags him as she drags him back home. Given Bubble Bass' gluttony and conning the pair into doing all the hard work for him, he almost certainly never truly intended to give them the free lunch.

In the two-parter "The Sontaran Strategem"/"The Poison Sky", the Sontarans attempt to wipe out humanity by altering the atmosphere, and seek out the aid of Teen Genius Luke Rattigan so that they can covertly enact this scheme via a device fitted in cars supposedly to suppress carbon emissions. Luke helps them due to the alienation his brilliance invites, and is seduced with the promise of a new planet dubbed "Castor-36" that he and other young geniuses in the academy he set up can inhabit.note Luke dubbed it Earth.2, and more vainly, "Luke's World", though he was possibly joking. Once Luke gives the offer to them, they refuse, and upon returning to Sontarans, the general admits he was yanking his chain with that whole "Castor-36" thing, and would've had him and the whole group killed the moment they arrived on their ship. Indeed, Luke barely escapes with his life shortly after learning this.

He fails his mission, and the last thing he sees before Marik kills him is that he never intended to keep his end of the deal. To make it even worse for Arcana, Yugi continually told him during the duel that this was likely the case. Arcana actually seemed to have doubts once or twice, but never enough to truly believe him until the end. Noah Kaiba recruits the Big Five by promising to allow them to take over the bodies of the heroes if they can defeat them in duels so they can escape the virtual world. When the Big Five are all defeated, Noah deletes them, but not before laughing at them and revealing he never intended to give them bodies or let them leave the virtual world.

In return, he promises you a weapon that can kill anything. By this point, you probably know better how things work at the Colony... but if you are used to more "traditional" RPGs, you think quest=reward, especially since this particular quest is even named "Baloro's Weapon"; so you go all over the valley searching for the items he ordered — some of them surprisingly hard to find. Of course, when you deliver the goods and ask for the weapon, he just mocks you for your troubles and gives you nothing, not even some Ore. The bastard doesn't even invite you to the party!

The father, knowing it would be very foolish to say no to a lion, says he will consent if he agrees to have his claws and teeth removed so that he does not accidentally hurt her. The lion agrees, but after this is done, the father merely drives the neutralized lion away.

When the crane does so and asks for his reward, the wolf says that allowing him to stick his head into his mouth without biting it off was just that.

Note that there actually was cake—it just wasn't for you. Moreover, note the wording by GlaDOS: "There will be cake" (and similar vague statements, like "cake will be served" and "cake ... will be available"). It's not until later (when her lies become more transparent) does GLaDOS suggest that Chell will be the one to eat it ("Okay, the test is over now. You win! Go back to the recovery annex for your cake.") Averted in the Portal level of LEGO Dimensions, possibly due to the Trope Naming line becoming a Discredited Meme. Not only does the cake exist, but it's an important part of the foundation of the entire multiverse. The free-roaming Portal Adventure World has a Quest in which a minifigure adept at technologyexamples The Doctor from Doctor Who, Doc Brown from Back to the Future, Benny from The LEGO Movie can help the Cake Core bake a new cake...though the use of "fish-shaped solid waste" as an ingredient makes one wonder if it actually seems edible.

This isn't trickery or deceit (At first), it's the result of a wayward glass eyeball hitting a few extra zeros on the keyboard, and an open window and fan scattering the flyers before Buster could see them. And thus Buster is forced to find a way to raise the money before the contest or his contestants find out.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_ecd2d797	comment	Baldur's Gate The player is offered a quest with a 10,000 gp reward—big money at that point in the game—by Jierdan Firkraag. Once you reach the quest area, however, you're manipulated into killing several knights, and you find out that Firkraag is not only a dragon in disguise, but trying to destroy your reputation as payback for some half-explained slight. Several other characters do this as well, Kangaxx the Demi-Lich and the Chromatic Demon from Watcher's Keep come to mind. By the time of the Chromatic Demon, CHARNAME has apparently become wise to this, as (s)he observes in the diary: "As I expected, the Chromatic Demon attacked me as soon as I released it from its prison..." As a rule of thumb, almost every evil guy who gives you a quest in the Baldur's Gate series will end up fighting you. Which doesn't mean you shouldn't do the quest, since you will find the reward they promised you over their dead body anyway, as well as valuable loot that's probably more useful than the money.

The Cake Is a Lie / int_ed2a7866	comment	Sword Art Online The Fairy Dance Arc fits this well. According to given sources of Alfheim Online, one can try the "Grand Quest", which would give his or her race a meeting with the Fairy King Oberon and promote the entire aligned race to the powerful Alfs. However, because only one can complete such a task, there is a lot of competition between the races, despite the alliances. It turns out the whole thing is a hoax. The "Grand Quest" is an Impossible Task and the main entrance impassable to normal players. What's more, there is no city or castle at the top of the tree that was said in the game, as it is merely a research center for the psychopathic administrator and staff to experiment on human brains. In the Alicization Arc, Quinella motivates her henchman Chudelkin, who openly lusts after her, by swearing an oath to the goddess Stacia that if he can defeat the heroes, she will have sex with him. She later reveals she has no intention of giving him his reward; since she doesn't believe in Stacia, her oath is meaningless.

They're very grouchy later when they find out he lied.

When questioned by the press, Stan says "That's just a typo. GOODNIGHT, EVERYBODY!" and runs off with everyone's admission money, to the disappointment and frustration of the attendees—particularly a guy wearing a "Free Pizza" t-shirt.
