Our protagonist is going through a perfectly normal day. Only... something's wrong. The people around him are acting just a bit off. They keep mentioning a string of words, or are trying to herd him to a certain place. It looks like the town's been taken over by a Puppeteer Parasite, and our hero's the only one left. He attempts to either escape and warn the outside world, or find where the invaders are coming from and shut it down. But once he gets there, he discovers the horrifying truth: HE'S the fake! Cue screams of "What Have I Become?!" A robot, a clone, a robot clone, an alien, a ghost or nearly one or some other duplicate that forgot he wasn't the real thing, or was programmed to believe that he was, complete with Fake Memories of a Conveniently Unverifiable Cover Story. For extra oomph, expect the tomato to break the mirror in frustration. A special case is where the character comes to realize that they are in fact fictional, either of the work itself or of a Show Within a Show. It often appears in a Real-World Episode. For those examples, see Noticing the Fourth Wall. In an ongoing series, it'll be a duplicate of one of the main characters. In a self-contained work, it'll just be someone who thinks they're human. Either way, it's an effective inversion of Puppeteer Parasite. Assuming the duplicate works through the immediate identity issues, suicidal tendencies, and/or desire to lash out with murderous intent, they may find themselves having to ask a Trial Balloon Question to see if "their" friends and family would still accept them. Variation of the Tomato Surprise, hence the name (note the key difference is that here, the character doesn't know they're a tomato until the Internal Reveal). The opposite of this is And Then John Was a Zombie. Often includes a Once More, with Clarity moment, as the character runs through a series of previous events and realizes the things they (and the audience) missed that would have revealed their true identity. Compare I Am Who?, which is (usually) a much more pleasant surprise, as well as Future Self Reveal and You Are What You Hate. See also Expendable Clone and Dead All Along, in which case the truth may come out when they find "their" own body. If the surprise is the character discovering that they were the villain all along, that's The Killer in Me. If a lot of people experience this trope at once, you may have Everyone Is a Tomato. It may or may not involve a real mirror. The trope name comes from a set of writer's guidelines distributed circa 1980 by Asimov's Science Fiction magazine, written by its then-editor, George Scithers. The guidelines named the trope and gave as one of the examples hiding the fact that the hero is, in fact, a tomato. This is a Twist Ending trope. Expect your tomatoes to be spoiled! |

Daniel Johnston's "Devil Town" from his album "1990" seems to be about this trope—'I didn't know they were vampires/It turns out I was a vampire myself...' That is, unless it's actually about something else entirely over some people's heads. | |

The Torchwood: The Lost Files story "The House of the Dead" does this on a massive scale. The story is set after Children of Earth, not before it as it first appeared, Ianto, the point-of-view character is a ghost, and the version of Gwen talking to him by radio is actually an Eldritch Abomination impersonating her. Only Jack is the "real" version. | |

X-Men: During Jonathan Hickman's run, Vulcan is supposedly revived after his apparent death in War of Kings as his younger, non-crazy self. Then an issue focusing on him shows he really is the original Vulcan. After his supposed death he was found and recovered by a trio of mysterious aliens who thought the Ax-Crazy, nigh-unkillable energy manipulator would be a useful Manchurian Agent, so they put a shell personality in his head until their plans were ready. | |

Sluggy Freelance: Torg's comic book "Gunman Stan McKurt Vs. the Gates of the City of the Damned" has a variation applying to a whole place. It starts with some archaeologists having Dug Too Deep near a town and revealed "the gates of Hell itself". The protagonist is supposed to stop another character from opening them; in the end, she dies before being able to explain why opening these gates of the City of the Damned would actually help the people in the town. The reason is then revealed by a sign held by a demonic humanoid: "You are in the City of the Damned". Mind you, Stan McKurt never figures it out because he's illiterate. Many people have speculated that Oasis is actually a robot, but Oasis has strenuously denied it. Oasis is, in fact, an artificially intelligent Kill Sat. Her human body is a replaceable Remote Body created by cloning. Learning this leaves her distraught, but it ultimately helps her, breaking her free of all mental control. |

Justice League of America: The JLA's initial way of dealing with the White Martian threat was to hypnotize them into thinking that they are mere humans. This leads to an issue where Batman declares that several members of the JLA need to track down a great threat to the world: Bruce Wayne. Turns out that one of the brainwashed Martians was working for Wayne as an assistant. After being involved in a plane wreck it loses its memories again and decides (from papers it had) that it is Wayne and takes his form (making it a double example of this trope: a Martian who is forced to think it is human who then winds up thinking it is a different human). | |

After going with the flow like this for over thirty years, she eventually discovers that they weren't too far off the mark, as she was abducted and experimented on prior to starting school.

Finally "Linda" is confronted by Supergirl, who explains she is a clone of hers whom she fought in an earlier adventure.

In an early issue of The Sensational She-Hulk, our titular green goddess wakes up to see her headless body being used to provide a new mode of transportation for Chondu the Mystic's head. It turned out to be a cloned body, though. They couldn't find a saw that was able to cut She-Hulk's hair, let alone through her neck. | |

Shin Angyo Onshi: The third chapter of the manhwa and the last one-third part anime movie of invokes this. A young fisherman finds Munsu and tells him that a miracle-working physician in his island village is experimenting with the dead. Munsu and Sando investigate the matter, and find out that this is true. The twist comes when Munsu tells the young fisherman to kill his beloved sister, which he tearfully does...the illusion comes crashing down, and it turns out that the physician zombified the population of the whole village, who died when a plague swept over the area, and covered it with mandrake-induced illusion. Said young fisherman finally realizes that he is not the sole survivor, but a zombie like everyone else and promptly kills himself. It is speculated that this trope applies to Munsu's Sando (Chun Hyang) as well. Many stronger Sando are animals/magical beasts that can take human form, as is most clearly demonstrated by Hwang's Sando, who first can be seen as a giant wolf/bird hybrid beast but later presents herself as a little girl. The cute Chun Hyang was known as Mong Ryong's constant companion, and Mong Ryong himself is known as a veterinarian. It is not a far stretch to speculate that Chun Hyang is the same. |

In Rising Stars, Poet asks Clarence Mack what he knows about the murders of the other Specials. Clarence discusses his own theories and uses his ability to enter the minds of others to show Poet his findings, when he realizes that he saw exactly who the killer was, and was murdered only moments later for it. And that, while he was unaware of it until just now, he's only having this conversation because another Special who is a medium summoned his ghost. | |

My(stara's) Little Ponies: Friendship Is Adventuring: the Elements of Power are imperfect shadow clones of the Elements of Harmony (the characters, not the magical bling) who believe the Elements of Harmony are the imperfect clones. It takes a fair amount of both figurative and literal beating them over the head, including pointing out contradictions in their backstories and the forces of entropy trying to sever their mystical connection to their creator (which is providing the power that keeps them 'alive'), for them to accept their true status; once they do, they become more friendly rivals. | |

But it isn't until Kanaya contacts Rose with some distressing information does Rose learn the truth: The world was always corrupted from the start, and Rose, Kanaya and the rest of the uncorrupted characters have just become "enhanced". Rose does not take this information well. | |

Turns our he is actually a copy of the real Fai of that world whose heart has been poisoned by Ashura to kill the thunderbirds. To do that he planned to kill him and give them his heart to eat, which is a practice with strong magic users in that world. Cue a lot of tears and It's All My Fault and Kurogane having to pound some sense into his head. | |

Big Finish Doctor Who: In the audio drama "The Natural History of Fear", characters with the voices of the main cast live in a totalitarian city with its own version of Doctor Who. The listener is led to believe throughout the audio that the Doctor, Charley, and C'rizz have had their memories wiped and are trapped by the city using the roles they are placed in, the Editor, the Nurse and Conscience #1, respectively. However, at the end of the audio, when the Editor sees the memory of the Doctor and companions visiting Light City and the Doctor having to give up the group's memories to the city, he finds out the memories were only copied. The group only was in Light City for a day and the characters seen were created using their memories, revealed to the listener when the Editor mentions he has eight legs. In "Brave New Town", the inhabitants of the Uncanny Village all turn out to be plastic Autons with real emotions and a Weirdness Censor. This was later also used in series 5 of the revived TV show proper. In "The Holy Terror", the little boy has the same face as the scribe. |

Meta example: One of several ways for Dungeons & Dragons DMs to handle doppelganger infiltration into a party of PCs is to not inform the player they've been replaced until it's time for The Reveal. Needless to say, this isn't a popular option with players, although they're a lot less miffed if their character is only knocked out and tied up by the shapeshifting monster off-camera, not actually killed. | |

In The Unbelievable Gwenpool, when Gwen explains that their world is really a comic book, Batroc the Leaper dismisses this as nonsense. To prove it, Gwen asks him to tell her something about his life from before he met Captain America for the first time. He cannot recall anything, and she explains that he literally didn't exist before he was introduced in the comics. He takes the revelation in stride. Actually she is right for the wrong reasons though. Batroc should remember his backstory no matter when it was established relative to his first appearance (that's how retcons work), but unfortunately for Batroc no writer ever bothered to establish one for him. This probably just makes the revelation sadder. | |

When she ends up realizing the truth after a fight with the real Ahuizotl and losing badly due to the fictional one she's 'used to' being a Harmless Villain, she doesn't take it well. Thankfully for her, she lives in a world where Clones Are People, Too, but it still leaves her so shaken that she loses her Cutie Mark in her existential crisis and will have to re-earn it, or a different one. | |

It's quite likely that a player can be playing as a werewolf, vampire, tanner, or whatever without knowing it after a switch occurs.

In Girl Genius, Anevka knows she was nearly killed in one of her father's Mad Science experiments a while ago and now interacts with the world through a robot body her brother made, but doesn't realize her human body died years ago. "Anevka" is the robot, which imprinted with her personality and memories back when she was actually controlling it. She's pretty horrified when her brother tells her. | |

Snatcher pulls this off rather beautifully. So, Gillian Seed is a Deckard Expy working for an organization hunting down Snatchers, robots that look like humans. Also, you and your wife have amnesia and can't remember anything about your past. Well, it's quite obvious that You and your wife are amnesiac Snatchers. Except... Actually, neither of you are. You invented the Snatchers 50 years ago and were cryogenically stored. Hideo Kojima is so good a writer even the Genre Savvy are left in surprise. There are about five other Tomato Surprises that are subverted in the very same game too. | |

Superman: In Supergirl (1982) issue #19, there are two Supergirls: One of them is a depowered Linda Danvers and the other is a Supergirl who doesn't even remember having an alter ego. Finally "Linda" is confronted by Supergirl, who explains she is a clone of hers whom she fought in an earlier adventure. "Linda" gets upset, but she at last remembers putting a block on Supergirl's memories and attempting to steal her civilian identity because she had no one, only for forgetting her origins, too. The fake Linda has a breakdown, but the real Supergirl promises to help her find her own identity. The Phantom Zone: As being forced to watch visions of Krypton, Charlie Kweskill notices Quex-Ul, one of the criminals sentenced to the Phantom Zone, looks right like him. Throughout his and Superman's extra-dimensional journey, he remembers he is a Kryptonian. In an early Post-Crisis story, Superman shows up badly damaged somehow having been turned into a robot Superman. It turns out, of course, that this really is just a robot Superman who was so well programmed that he genuinely thinks he is Superman. In a World's Finest issue, Superman and Batman, after being put through a gauntlet of trials especially designed to mess with their heads, reveal their secret identities, and then ask to be destroyed. Turns out that these were actually robots meant to perfectly emulate the two heroes, and realize that they're just imperfect copies because they didn't have either hero's mental fortitude. Dead Again! has people discovering a Superman body inside his tomb, making everyone think that the Superman flying around since his resurrection isn't the real deal. Superman is certain something screwy is going on and tries to figure out which of his enemies is doing this. It turns out it's Brainiac, who had recovered from his psychic lobotomy at the hands of Maxima and was playing possum while messing with Superman. |

Danganronpa: In Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, no one could have predicted that the cast was really former members of the Apocalypse Cult Ultimate Despair, least of all Hajime Hinata, the protagonist who is merely a reconstruction of pre-surgery Izuru Kamukura, the former Ultimate Hope. Talentless? Not even close. Not only that, but Hajime/Izuru was the one who subverted the Neo World Program by installing the AI version of Junko. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony: According to the mastermind (who may or may not be an Unreliable Narrator), the entire cast was actually participating in a reality show the whole time, with their talents and memories implanted into them. In the Fan Game Danganronpa Another, like Izuru above, protagonist Yuki Maeda is revealed to be the mastermind with his Ninja Maid Love Interest Akane being The Dragon. In Super Danganronpa Another 2, the protagonist Sora is revealed to be the Virtual Ghost of Akane programmed by the Big Bad to ensure the Deadly Game went smoothly. |

The Kim Possible fic "You Kissed a Synthodrone" has Ron experience this by proxy when it turns out that everything he experienced with Kim after they were captured by Drakken in Bueno Nacho ("So the Drama") was actually with a synthodrone copy of Kim Drakken created. While the Kim copy is aware of her true nature, her programming glitches to the extent that she helps to stop Drakken's plan and then free him later on. Kim is thus left in the awkward situation of telling Ron that he was kissing a synthodrone while also dealing with the revelation of his feelings for her. | |

The Pony POV Series: In a way, this happens to Fluttercruel. She believed she was Fluttershy during the events of "The Return of Harmony", only to discover she's a spiritual clone of Fluttershy created by Discord after Twilight used the Memory Spell on her. In the Dark World, Twilight discovers the true identity of the Nameless Passenger is none other than her own potential future self, Nightmare Eclipse/Paradox, a Knight Templar seeking to punish Discord for eternity by creating the Dark World as Discord's Ironic Hell via "Groundhog Day" Loop. Pinkie Pie discovers she's the G2 Clover's Imaginary Friend brought to life. She doesn't take it well until Twilight Sparkle, Zecora, and Princess Luna assure her it doesn't matter where she came from, she's real in every way that matters. In the Shining Armor Arc, Shining Armor eventually discovers that he literally didn't exist before his story started, and his timeline's been filling itself in both ways ever since. This is why he's Immune to Fate, why Makarov's Charm Person abilities don't work on him, and why the Blank Wolf is after him. Minuette discovers that she's really a transformed, alternate personality of The Master. Fortunately, when the original personality tries to take her over, she manages to destroy him, earning a life independent of him. Queen Chrysalis started out life as Kifuko, a member of a small Zebra tribe. At an early age, she discovered that food did not feed her and she instead had to survive by absorbing love, but she assumed she was under some kind of curse. Eventually, she was captured by the Changelings, who assumed she was a deserter, and a Power Nullifier forced her to revert to her true Changeling form. She was horrified, but came to terms with her true nature and overthrew Queen Cocoon to become the new queen. In the Finale Arc, Rainbow Dash notices there's something wrong with the world and tries to figure out what is going on and how to fix it. It turns out she is not the Rainbow Dash the main story has been following, but Nightmare Manacle, Rainbow's Evil Counterpart from the Dark World timeline who has been brainwashed into believing she actually is Rainbow. The events leading up to the reveal are a Shout-Out to Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion. After she comes to terms with this, she helps Applejack and Pinkie Pie remember that they are really Nightmare Mirror and Nightmare Granfalloon. Most disturbing is Rarity: she turns out to really be Nightdrake Banneret, or Spike, who had been transformed into Rarity and given her memories. This happens to Sunny Day (an alternate persona of Princess Celestia who gained a life of her own), when she realizes she doesn't remember important details like her parents, her house, etc. Scootaloo eventually learns that one of her parents was a Changeling, and she inherited some of their traits. She is initially shocked and repulsed, before putting it aside and focusing on the battle at hand. |

Toy Story: Buzz Lightyear spends half the movie convinced that he really is a space ranger, and that all his nifty features are actual working gadgets. Then he encounters a TV set playing a Ridiculously Loud Commercial for his toy line, confirming that he is, in fact, a toy. Randy Newman narrates Buzz's thought processes in the subsequent BSoD Song as he tries to deny the revelation and use his space wings—the one feature he'd "proven" to work in a previous scene—to fly out a window, only to fall like a rock and break himself on the stairs below. | |

Security camera footage finds the villains Adu Du and Probe at the scene of the next attack, but they were just following the real arsonist, who turns out to be BoBoiBoy himself, as his fire elemental who was only recently unlocked due to his accumulating stress, and he couldn't recall his activities as BoBoiBoy Fire since he only emerged in his sleep. Upon this revelation, BoBoiBoy is distraught to recall the shadowy figure from his nightmares of the arsonist, but with him in place. | |

Werewolf: The Forsaken also has an element of this. What's that? You're just an ordinary person being stalked by werewolves, spirits and ghosts? No, you are a werewolf, and you always were one since birth - it's just been dormant. (The bite is so that they can track you down after you go through your violent First Change - it's not infectious, and the Change proceeds with or without the bite. A panic-stricken person post-Change might not realize this or be in the mood to listen to the explanation, so consumed with fear over being a monster.) | |

Each reacts to it in a different way; Anne wants to learn more about her species (because no-one in Amphibia knows what a human is), Sasha feels betrayed by her adoptive parents, and Marcy is horrified by the transformation process. | |

Spider-Man: The plot of The Clone Saga was going to originally resolve itself in this way, with the "clone" Ben Reilly finding out that he was the original and the "original" Peter Parker, whom comic book fans had been reading about since the original clone story in the '70s, would be revealed to actually have been the clone all along. And then Marvel Comics chickened out... (After the infamously long Clone Saga went back and forth at least a half-dozen times about which Spidey was the clone.) | |

There are several reveals of this type in Ruby Quest. In chronological order: Ruby was once very violent, and killed Stitches and Tom (they got better, sort of.) Both Ruby and Tom are infected by the substance that created the 'zombies' fought earlier. The zombies themselves were normal people who the substance mutated until they became near-mindless monsters. Their names were later discovered to be Stitches and Daisy. Finally, Tom Nook, who the players thought was the 'extremely dangerous' Subject #6, was actually Subject #5. Ruby's companion Tom was the real Subject #6 (although, in a variation, this reveal was only shown to the players themselves, not the characters). |

The Danny Phantom fanfiction Smokescreen begins with Danny waking up after a fight. He's pretty disoriented afterwards, and as time passes, he has more and more trouble with memory gaps and his powers going berserk. Eventually, he and his friends find out that he isn't Danny at all; he's D-17— one of Vlad's many experimental Danny-clones! Paranoia Fuel indeed; as the fanfic recommendation page says, "Who's to say that you aren't you, but somebody else?" | |

RWBY: Scars: 15-year-old Ruby didn't know that she is Yang's half-sister until Yang accidentally lets her biological mother Raven's name slip out. Ruby had always thought she and Yang were full sisters. It then turns out that they aren't half-sisters either; they're really cousins, as Raven's twin brother Qrow is actually Ruby's biological father, not her honorary uncle. Raven reveals this to Yang later on, but Qrow denies it and tells her not to believe his liar of a sister. | |

In Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, no one could have predicted that the cast was really former members of the Apocalypse Cult Ultimate Despair, least of all Hajime Hinata, the protagonist who is merely a reconstruction of pre-surgery Izuru Kamukura, the former Ultimate Hope. Talentless? Not even close. Not only that, but Hajime/Izuru was the one who subverted the Neo World Program by installing the AI version of Junko. | |

Child of the Storm has this Inverted with Maddie Pryor in the sequel; she was raised believing she was an Artificial Human created as a Living Weapon by Sinister, and her calm acceptance of this sub-human status (though under Gambit's influence, she started questioning and exercising her free will) is played for tragedy. Then, after pulling a Heel–Face Turn, she finds out the truth: her real name is Rachel Grey, twin sister of Jean Grey, and she was stolen and replaced at birth by Sinister. She quite literally collapses. | |

In The Prodigal Son, Atlas wakes up in the time period of BioShock 2 missing a chunk of memories about how the original game played out, scars from splicing he doesn't remember getting, and a few suspicious threads in what he does remember. It takes until chapter 29 for him to recall that BioShock ended with the twist that "Atlas" was really Frank Fontaine in disguise. Notably, this isn't a twist for the audience, as the previous story Getting Lost in the Con shows how Atlas performed a Split-Personality Takeover on Fontaine, and Brigid Tenenbaum's POV makes it quite clear that she knows Atlas's secret, but refuses to tell in order to give him a second chance. | |

Twenty years before The Darkness Hope, the stars suddenly shifted. Hope Estacado discovers that the night sky currently matches up with how the night sky should look 10,000 years from now, which suggests that they were transported to the future. Her father Jackie Estacado, aka The Darkness, tells her there was a terrible battle twenty years ago, and pointedly tells her to stop investigating. Hope keeps digging, and discovers the truth: she, like almost everyone else on the planet, is a Darkling, one of Jackie's demon spawn. 10,000 years ago, Jackie lost control of his powers and caused the extinction of the human race. It took him about that long to master his powers and repopulate the world with Darklings who thought that they were human; twenty years ago was when he could resume life as it was. To put the icing on the cake, this is not the first time Hope discovered the truth and it won't be the last; Jackie sadly destroys and recreates her, and she starts the day again. | |

The trope is played with throughout the first half of Doom 2099. Doom claims he jumped to the future due to a failed experiment, which also damaged some of his memory. People note strange discrepancies at first (he's too young, his face isn't scarred [at first], etc). Then Doom learns he was the son of a political enemy to Latveria, who was kidnapped by the REAL Doctor Doom and brainwashed into thinking he was the real Doom. Then it gets massively subverted. Doom really was the real deal; his youth and failed memories were because of a regeneration tank. There was no Gambit; it was just Doom's former lover getting bored and screwing with him. | |

Encanto: Abuela Alma was so traumatized by the loss of her husband Pedro, home, and town, that she unknowingly passed that emotional burden onto the rest of the Madrigals with believing their gifts were the miracle and not the family itself, and Mirabel not getting a gift only further drove Alma into putting more baggage on the rest of the family. Only when Mirabel finally snaps and tells Alma straight to her face that the miracle dying is all ''her'' fault does Alma realize she's right as all evidence points back to her, only for the Casita to collapse seconds later and Mirabel to vanish for hours until Alma finds her back at the river where Pedro died, where Alma apologizes and admits It's All My Fault to her alienated granddaughter. | |

Tangled: The prologue even states Gothel kidnapped Princess Rapunzel as a baby to have her hair all to herself to stay young, and lied to her about the outside world so she doesn't leave and can live forever. It takes Rapunzel all the way until the climax of the film to realize her true identity, something the audience already knew about her since the prologue. Especially helped by the "Kingdom Dance" sequence when Rapunzel is shocked to see the mosaic of the Royal Family — particularly the baby who strongly resembles her — unaware she was looking at herself. | |

New World of Darkness: This is a huge element of the fetches in Changeling: The Lost. They believe themselves to be ordinary humans, but they have the ability to see things others can't — that is, the people on the street who look like monsters. At some point, the fetch usually finds out that it's not a real person; it's a copy made by one of The Fair Folk to serve as a replacement for the human they took to Faerie to serve as their plaything. Those "monsters" they're seeing? They're the people who managed to escape from Faerie in the first place. And a lot of them aren't big fans of something fake living their life...The Changeling book also suggests this motif as a brilliant Twist Ending Prelude: the players start going through life, noticing really weird things, scary critters just outside of the reach of their perception. Surprise! All the players are fetches, and the "evil creatures" are their real, changeling selves, come to finish them off.And for the Rule of Three (appropriately), the final splatbook has a brilliant double-layered example. Changelings who manage to live long enough are frequently drawn back into Arcadia and realize they've become True Fae themselves. At the same time it's revealed that the Fae view everything as a collaborative/competitive role-playing game and interact with the world by making up characters, settings, and props to act out stories...like the players see the game world. Werewolf: The Forsaken also has an element of this. What's that? You're just an ordinary person being stalked by werewolves, spirits and ghosts? No, you are a werewolf, and you always were one since birth - it's just been dormant. (The bite is so that they can track you down after you go through your violent First Change - it's not infectious, and the Change proceeds with or without the bite. A panic-stricken person post-Change might not realize this or be in the mood to listen to the explanation, so consumed with fear over being a monster.) |

Creepypasta: The story titled "Mice" featured a narrator who had trained "mice" into becoming intelligent and making their own communities. He regularly kills some of the weaker ones to discourage any rebellion against him. In the end, it's revealed that the narrator is actually a robot and the mice are really people. Another relates the story of a kid being adopted into a family and the subsequent murder of his family members by an unknown man, except for himself, who turns out to be a dog. Another describes how victims of rape and torture will retreat into a catatonic state from which they cannot WAKE UP. In their minds, they live in a fantasy world just like the real one, except they're safe, until they find notes in the imaginary world, telling them to Please Wake Up. |
