It's not that difficult for a character in a work to jump to conclusions. They might believe that they're a certain trope, that a different character is a certain trope, or at least that a certain trope is happening around them. But it turns out that they are very much wrong. And unfortunately, it will often take them until the end of the story to realize their mistake. In a Darker and Edgier story, they might not even realize the truth until it's too late for them to get a Happy Ending. In a Lighter and Softer story, only the villain will really be a victim to this and meet his/her downfall. Some tropes in the The Wannabe Index (like Big Bad Wannabe, Casanova Wannabe, Prince Charming Wannabe etc) and Mistaken for Index are sub-tropes of this trope. There can be overlaps with Entertainingly Wrong, Hidden Depths, Horrible Judge of Character, Idiot Ball, One Dialogue, Two Conversations, and More than Meets the Eye as well. Compare also with Wrong Genre Savvy, where a character acts as if they're in a different genre than what they really are. Compare Tragic Mistake. |

Watchmen: After discovering that the recently murdered Edward Blake was actually the Comedian, Rorschach assumes that a "mask killer" is targeting ex-costumed heroes and is seemingly proven right when an assassin attacks Adrian Veidt. Blake was actually killed for knowing too much by Veidt himself, who then staged the attempt on his life to keep Rorschach on the wrong track. | |

Emma: The title character sees herself as the wise matchmaker with a keen insight into people and all their thoughts and feelings who can make the narrative play out exactly as she wishes and end in happy weddings for everyone. Every single one of her brilliant ideas fails horribly, many grave misunderstandings are created and exacerbated, her perception of situations is often completely wrong, and at times she can be outright insensitive. It is only once she stops meddling that everyone is able to resolve their romances, including Emma herself, entirely on their own. | |

In Gate, when Emperor Molt starts taking the JSDF seriously, he orders his army to use Scorched Earth tactics to deny the enemy supplies to make their journey harder. However, that old kind of tactic won't work with a modern force that uses helicopters, tanks, Humvees, jets, and a well-established supply line... or rather, it won't work because of the speed and range that the JSDF forces can bring to the table. Without matching abilities, the JSDF can leapfrog over those positions rather quickly. He also has no real concept of the kind of demented warfare Japan can unleash upon his country, and still thinks war with them is winnable. After the Senate building gets bombed to rubble, he eventually realizes it's better to negotiate with Japan than to see more bullet-filled corpses of his soldiers and possible rebellion from his own people and neighboring countries. Too bad his batshit crazy eldest son doesn't see it that way. | |

Advice and Trust: When Gendo fired Shinji and Asuka he was not concerned because he thought the Dummy Plugs would be an adequate substitute, and otherwise neither Shinji nor Asuka would leave or refuse pilot again because Shinji yearned for his approval and attention and Asuka's self-image was utterly tied to be a pilot. Oh, and he also thought Shinji's feelings toward Asuka were unrequited infatuation. However: the dummy plugs were NOT a good substitute; Shinji and Asuka's relationship was of the Belligerent Sexual Tension nature, and it had been resolved when he was not paying attention, so neither of them cared for or depended on his approval anymore. Cue freaking I-eat-Evas-for-breakfast Zeruel, easily destroying the Evas piloted by Dummy Plugs, nearly killing Rei, storming the Geofront and very nearly killing everyone because Gendo had been idiotic and suicidal enough to fire his best pilots. | |

X-Men: This happened when the X-Men had to deal with Dracula. Yes, using a cross on Drac is a good way to keep him back. But, it really doesn't work unless you have the faith behind it, which the very Jewish Kitty Pryde and the oh-so-unrepentant Wolverine find out. Luckily for the former, her Star of David necklace is equally effective as a cross at repelling Drac. | |

Ten Little Roosters: Adam teams up with Gavin, only to find out Gavin's clone (long story) is in trouble. Gavin and the clone die horribly by mousetraps. When Barbara confronts Adam and suggests they team up, Adam refuses because of what happened. The killer is later able to ambush him and strangle him to death. Miles believes that he can be the hero of the story by dressing up as Ruby Rose and trying to think like her. Even more, he believes that beating Skyrim eight times and getting all of the Chaos Emeralds makes him even more suitable for surviving. It doesn't. At all. The one time he tries to take action, fighting a puma, he freaks, drops his weapon, and runs. |

In Asteroid in Love, since Mira acts like a complete ditz during the club's welcoming barbecue, Yuu assumes that Mira would completely follow that archetype and isn't expecting anything intellectual from her. The problem is, while Mira isn't the smartest girl around, she is uncharacteristically curious for The Ditz, and her impulsivity can turn into motivation to learn what's needed to sate said curiosity. Cue Yuu's utter surprise in the thirty-fourth chapter when she learns that Mira is seriously into asteroid discovery and is able to perfectly summarize the process... | |

Supergirl: In Red Daughter of Krypton Lobo taunted Supergirl during their whole fight, thinking that she'd fight sloppily if she got angry. It turned out that blind rage makes her more dangerous instead of more ineffective. During the events of Superman: Doomed, Supergirl, who was using her anger to protect the galaxy, assumes Superman's just "getting in touch with his angry side" and can use his SuperDoom form for good. So she goaded him... and it made things worse. |

The Lament Series (ChaoticNeutral): Chloé's Lament has her making several after Wishing to switch places with Marinette: She mistakenly believes that Marinette will be a Spoiled Brat Hated by All just like she was, and that she must bully and belittle others the same way she did. In reality, the new reality's Marinette is a Spoiled Sweet girl whom Chloé still tried to bully, to little avail since she was no longer protected by her father's position. Since her father was Mayor before, Chloé presumes that Marinette's father Tom is in the same position, only to learn that it was actually Sabine who was cast into that role. She also assumes that Marinette became the Class Rep, only to find that Sabrina took that job instead. She also assumes that she'll now be this universe's Ladybug. Turns out she failed Master Fu's Secret Test of Character without even knowing it. Oh, and the new Ladybug hero is Sabrina, under the alias Red Queen. |

In The Dresden Files, when Harry's apprentice-of-sorts Kim comes to him with a major summoning/binding circle that she wants explained, he refuses to give her any more information than what the thing basically is, apparently thinking that he's the Wise Mentor dissuading his overly reckless student from meddling in stuff that she'd regret. It turns out that she was friends with the Loup-Garou Macfinn, and she needed that circle to stop Macfinn's wolf form from going on a rampage. This wasn't something that she could just put off, because for every full moon she failed to put up the circle, people would die. So, she does the circle anyways, but she doesn't have the know-how to make it work properly. It fails, and Macfinn kills her. When he found out, Harry was completely horrified with his mistake, realizing (and pointing out) that he was actually the self-important authority figure that refused to help the hero because the hero "wasn't ready yet". | |

Phoenix's Tear: Reignition: In Protectorate of the Color Pandora, C.P.'s village had little experience with how Muu's forces work beyond the raids Naga and Stone Dragon conducted. As a result, he initially mistakes the Searchers for working with the villains, assuming that Genki and Holly are both 'handlers', completely unaware that Muu doesn't employ any humans at all in his armies. Hare complains about this, unintentionally reminding Genki of how Allan originally intended to join Muu due to his own inaccurate assumptions. | |

In Puni Puni☆Poemi the eponymous character is convinced (apparently correctly) that she is the main character — and her voice actress. In the final scene ,the show's director (who is also a character) reveals that the main character is apparently her love interest. | |

In Beware the Batman, Magpie is the Dark Knight's Stalker with a Crush with psychotic tendencies. Apparently, since she's the show's equivalent of Catwoman, she seems to think she and Batman are in love and want to be together. She reacts violently when she's told Batman was just being nice to her because she was in prison and he hopes she can be redeemed. | |

In one episode of Bonkers, the titular cartoon cop must deal with a zany prankster-type character, who has been going on a crime spree. At first, Bonkers thinks he's unstoppable because the type of character always wins in his cartoons. But then, Bonkers comes to the realization that this is his cartoon, and so is able to defeat him. | |

One episode of Superfriends by Hanna-Barbera has an inventor named Goodfellow create a series of robots run by a master computer that could supplant almost all human activity. No one would have to mow the lawn, restock supplies, or pilot vehicles; the Effort Eliminating Computer would do it all. Goodfellow presumed that humanity, freed from drudgery and tedium, would embark on a new Renaissance. By the episode's end, Goodfellow gets the disturbing news that people grew bored at having nothing to do, and began fighting, looting, and general mayhem to stave off ennui. | |

In Iron Man 3, Tony deduces that Aldrich Killian is selling the Flawed Prototype Extremis technology to the Mandarin to use in suicide bombings. Considering that this is almost exactly how his antagonists teamed up in the previous two Iron Man films (the Ten Rings and Obadiah Stane with the prototype Iron Man suit, and Whiplash and Justin Hammer with Whiplash's arc reactor), he'd be forgiven for jumping to that conclusion. However his assumption is wrong: the "bombings" are all accidental and Killian used the Mandarin (not the real one, but a fake one) as a scapegoat to explain them, leading to a plan to overthrow the President of the United States and install a puppet to in effect control both sides of the War on Terror. | |

In Kung Fu Panda, Tai Lung grew up thinking he would be The Hero instead of the Big Bad. In fact, the entire story is a stereotypical action Hero's Journey when seen from his perspective. Set up to become The Chosen One, he is betrayed by his mentor and spends a long time in captivity. Then he breaks out of the predicament they put him in. He overcomes obstacles and beats up a whole lot of Mooks led by The Brute; then he beats up a Quirky Miniboss Squad led by his counterpart/Shadow Archetype by revealing an 11th-Hour Superpower he developed after his initial defeat; then he beats up the Big Bad, who was responsible for the things that happened to him at the beginning; then the Dragon Ascendant powered by an Artifact of Doom is revealed as the True Final Boss, He manages to wrest control of the artifact from the Dragon Ascendant, prepares to use it, and... his story crumbles around him because he does not have what it takes to be The Hero. The Dragon Warrior title he wanted so badly brings nothing with it. Being a true Dragon Warrior requires understanding that there isn't anything that can make you special beyond your own effort. His design also includes a Stealth Pun on the topic. According to creator commentary, the color gold throughout the film symbolizes heroism. The only gold in Tai Lung's design is his eyes because he's only a hero in his own eyes. | |

In Star Trek (2009), the "new" Kirk assumes that a Romulan from The Future would know what the Enterprise crew will do, so they should be unpredictable. His Vulcan shipmate more accurately recognizes that the Romulan and his ship are a Timeline-Altering MacGuffin, causing a new chain of events (though nonetheless failing to prevent the assemblage of the same Enterprise crew). Later, old-Spock takes advantage of Kirk's ignorance to falsely "imply" that Never the Selves Shall Meet is a rule of this particular Timey-Wimey Ball. | |

In Överenskommelser, Beatrice assumes that Seth is a Casanova, who doesn't care more for her than for any other woman. The truth is though that while Seth has had many meaningless affairs with many different women, he does have genuine feelings for Beatrice. Seth assumes that Beatrice is a shallow Gold Digger, who only sees him as a fun fling before she gets married to an old aristocrat and becomes a countess. The truth is though that she has been threatened into her betrothal to Count Rosenschiöld by her abusive uncle, and that her heart belongs to Seth... But several unfortunate circumstances (including her cousin completely screwing them over) only makes them even more sure that they can't trust each other. Of course, all of this could have been solved if they only had talked to each other, but it takes them twenty months to actually reach that point... | |

Mazinger Z: Baron Ashura and Count Brocken hated each other. Big Bad Dr. Hell thought it would be a good thing since they would surely try to destroy Mazinger-Z harder to upstage each other. Or course, what happened was many operations and schemes went by the wayside because they constantly fought and got in each other's way, and they were unable to work together, ruining many joined missions, too. Hell's mistake was born of him believing he and his troops were heroes instead of villains. In another episode, Count Brocken has one in which he took hostages, and used cheap tricks to defeat Koji, expecting Koji to be a straight, heroic, and honorable hero like pretty much most tv show protagonists at the time. This could have (and at times actually did) work well if not for the fact that this is Koji we're talking about. In fact, Brocken does mention it by complaining about how Koji's fans will cry because of that. Koji's reaction? Take it like a man. |

In Imperfect Metamorphosis, Team 9 is full of idiots, and they are also misinformed about what is actually going on. Yukari, though, has no excuse, as she seems convinced, against all evidence, that she actually can take on Rin Satsuki, who already defeated her, Reimu, Eirin, and some of Gensokyo's other powerhouses and possesses the power of a freakin' ARCHANGEL OF DEATH. Oh, and she apparently doesn't have any problems in trying to screw things over while she already has to deal with Yuuka, who placed a bounty on Rin Satsuki's head. If she had actually spent TWO SECONDS listening to what Eirin said, or, failing even that, had tried to find a peaceful solution, she wouldn't have ended up playing Yuuka's game. If Rin actually WAS the Omnicidal Maniac she believes her to be, Gensokyo would have been ANNIHILATED by now. | |

DuckTales (1987), "Hero For Hire". Launchpad assumes he's new talent who's been discovered and is going to be a big-time actor. He's actually the Fall Guy who's been duped by the villains. Fortunately, halfway through, he realizes what's actually going on and makes another role switch into the episode's hero — to the surprise of the Beagle Boys, who had made the false assumption that Launchpad was too dumb to pose a threat and hence missed the transition. | |

The Order of the Stick: Elan gets this sometimes. For example, the first time they defeated Xykon he activates a Self-Destruct Mechanism in order to invoke a Load-Bearing Boss situation. And then won't escape the castle until the last possible second to be more dramatic. On another occasion he correctly predicts the current villain will try the old abduct-the-love-interest ploy...but doesn't realize that he's the abductee Tarquin appears to have cast himself as the Big Bad and Elan as The Hero, unaware that it's Xykon and Roy respectively. Eventually Elan crushingly tells him that he's "not the real villain", and lets him drop off an airship, refusing to confront him in the epic showdown Tarquin wants. It is implied that Tarquin would be quite content being killed by Elan in a battle (the hero always defeats the villain, after all) but the anticlimax of being left in the desert causes him to lose both the plot and his cool, and he's left shouting "This is a terrible ending!" at his retreating son. |

The title character of Melody avoids seeing or talking to the protagonist for a few days after she sees Bethany in his apartment, thinking that there’s still something going on between the two exes. Bethany does everything to further this assumption, referring to herself as his fiancée rather than his ex.

Unfortunately, they did not count on the fact that unlike most of the rest of the world, Berk is fervently anti-slavery. It also does not help that Fishlegs was far from the kind of viking who would use a pleasure thrall, and is so tender-hearted that their spy Heather would eventually fall in-love with him and lead to Berk invading his city. Also they mixed up Fishlegs and Meatlug's names. | |

Two wrongful assumptions are made in Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas: 1) the tribune of Syracuse is certain that the pirate Sinbad is responsible for the theft of the Book of Peace. Sinbad's boyhood friend Proteus defies this assumption and puts himself in Sinbad's place on Death Row to allow Sinbad to recover the MacGuffin. 2) Eris, the goddess of discord, presumes Sinbad to be such a vain, selfish brigand that she wagers the Book of Peace that Sinbad would not likewise forfeit his life to save Proteus. Both the tribune and Eris are proven patently wrong because Sinbad is really a Jerk with a Heart of Gold. | |

Adrien, however, clings to the misconception because it better suits his personal fantasies of forcing her into a Relationship Upgrade. | |

In Frozen, everyone assumes that the "act of true love" needed as a Curse Escape Clause is True Love's Kiss, but it's not romantic love that ends up breaking the curse in the end, but sisterly love. What's more, the act isn't done for Anna, but by Anna, to keep Elsa from being killed by Prince Hans. | |

In Ultimate Sleepwalker: The New Dreams, the Ax-Crazy Psycho for Hire Bullseye revels in his supposed A-list status and looks down on C-List Fodder like the billiards-based 8-Ball. When they're hired by rival crime bosses who are fighting a Mob War, Bullseye and 8-Ball end up fighting. The cocky Bullseye thinks that, as the A-lister, he'll have an easy time against the C-list 8-Ball. However, Bullseye ends up impaled by a huge piece of metal and gets his head severed and knocked into a garbage can by 8-Ball, just to add insult to injury. | |

Androgyninja's A Drop of Poison: Played for Drama with Sakura's situation. While she had already noticed the natural advantages those from clans held over civilian-born shinobi like herself, after Sasuke coldly insists that she'll never amount to anything more than a 'paper ninja' with a desk job or Cannon Fodder, she becomes increasingly convinced that the majority of people around her feel the same way. Though there is bias and classism at work, Sakura tends to assume the worst, cutting herself off from potential allies due to Poor Communication Kills. This is possibly best illustrated in her relationship with Kakashi, whose questionable teaching methods leave her convinced that he considers her completely expendable and won't lift a finger to help or protect her. Kakashi does care about her, but is terrible at showing it. |

In Doki Doki! PreCure, when Aguri/Cure Ace discovers that she and Regina were once the same person, she immediately assume that they cannot co-exist at the same time and that one of them must die. Not only is this not the case, as Mana shows them, but Aguri and Regina going all out during their deathmatch, along with the entire team having to step in to stop them, leads to them being weakened enough for Bel to start his assault on Earth without opposition. | |

Girl Genius: Ottvar Tryggvassen, Gentleman Adventurer, is convinced that he's the leading man, Baron Wulfenbach and Gil Wulfenbach are the diabolical mastermind and the mastermind's fiendish right-hand man respectively, and Agatha Clay is the leading man's beautiful young sidekick (even if she's not the Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter like he originally thought). Unfortunately he's completely insane and doesn't realise that he's wrong on all counts, so his plans are almost always inappropriate. Once he realizes that Agatha is a Heterodyne, he changes on the last part and treats her as the Hero of Another Story (possibly with himself as some manner of Mentor Archetype) — which doesn't solve his problem, since he's still completely insane, and Agatha knows it and wants nothing to do with him. Word of God is that he's re-cast his delusion slightly, Agatha is now the tragic love interest (he's going to kill her last, in some sort of love-suicide pact). One of the radio plays questioned whether Othar really is delusional — after all, having Sparks in charge has been almost always catastrophic for common Europeans, and it's not at all clear that the heroes will be able to break that cycle. |

In the The Twelve Kingdoms anime, Yuka leaps to the immediate assumption that being transported into a fantasy realm means she is The Chosen One, even though all signs point to her classmate Youko Nakajima.

Sluggy Freelance: Commander Clown and his allies think he's the good guy. While that's standard for a Well-Intentioned Extremist, it's not usually discussed in such a meta fashion. In "The Sci-Fi Adventure", the otherwise-nameless Captain of a starship believes he'll be the sole survivor of an alien rampage because he's the "handsome masculine lead", but Torg questions the logic he used to reach that conclusion, calling him a "shallow, one-dimensional stereotype" and suggesting that Riff and Torg will be the sole survivors instead because they have the more interesting backstory. The captain shouts "What is this? A sci-fi thriller or a goofy buddy movie?" The alien promptly answers his question. |

The other half, she's terrified of becoming a has-been, not grasping she's a never-was. When she attends her high school reunion, Liz looks forward to showing up the kids she remembers always putting her down as a nerd. However, it turns out that what Liz remembers as self-defense humor instead came off as horrific insults, and thus, as far as her classmates are concerned, she's just the school bully grown up. |

In "History, Herstory, Bearstory" from Bear in the Big Blue House, Jeremiah Tortoise tells Bear, Ojo, and Tutter the story of his Great Grandfather Hephaestus Tortoise, who founded Woodland Valley over 200 years ago and who owned the old house that they found. They are so inspired that they go back and tell Treelo, Pip, and Pop about it, then decide to install a dedication plaque at the old house. Jeremiah is touched, then states that he can't wait to tell Hephaestus about it when he gets back. Given everyone's reactions, they clearly assumed that Hephaestus was dead. | |

Hell Is a Martial Artist: When Ranma comes across Belldandy, Urd, Skuld, and Hild together, he assumes the first three are bullying the latter since they're confronting her three-on-one. Everybody initially mistakes Urd for yet another one of Ranma's "fiances", and react accordingly, ignoring her protests to the contrary. Due to their similar appearances, many wind up confusing Urd and Hild, thinking that both women are the same person. Played for Drama when Akane makes clear that she will never give Ranma the benefit of the doubt, spelling out for him that she will always assume the absolute worst of him in any given situation no matter what. Soun and Genma believe that Hild is just "some witch", dismissing Cologne's warnings that she possesses a power they don't want to mess with. |

In Mansfield Park, Henry Crawford honestly seems to believe he's the Prince Charming character, who will marry the Cinderella-esque heroine and rescue her from her depressing life with her neglectful family. Thus he feels completely confident after she rejects his proposal that they'll still inevitably be married, and both he and his sister still consider the marriage a sure thing. Unfortunately, he's actually the Handsome Lech character, who only passes himself off as Prince Charming to seduce women for fun, which he can't give up even after supposedly falling in love with Fanny Price. He came so close to being the romantic hero he wanted to be... and he blew it. | |

Where We Don't Belong: Since the Ouroboros have no knowledge of their own homeworlds, they jump to quite a few incorrect conclusions. Mio and Sena don't realize there's anything weird about people with core crystals walking around openly, and so make some assumptions about Driver/Blade teams that turn out to be ... misinformed. Mio hears the name "consul" and immediately gets the worst possible impression of Mor Ardain. The consul in question is actually a minor bureaucrat, certainly not the secret master behind the throne. Mio has a dream of playing with Dromarch as a child, and specifically calling him her mother's Blade. Since they don't know they're in the past until Chapter 17, she assumes her parents were Dromarch's drivers before Nia, and are dead now. Noah assumes that Alvis is a consul (which, in fairness, Alvis plays up), and is immediately antagonistic to him as a result. Eunie doesn't know what half-Homs/half-High Entia are, nor what racism is, and it takes her a bit to get used to the idea that she's not considered the same as everyone else. Eunie is surprised to see the Queen of Keves, and reflexively calls her first by name, then by "Your Majesty." But Melia is a princess now, not a queen, and she practically kicks herself for not looking further into Melia's family tree when confronted with Prince Kallian. Lanz, while calculating his own age, assumes it would be normal to go by City growth rates. Except he's supposed to be a Machina, who age at a rate literally two orders of magnitude differently. With the exception of his preconceptions of Blades being challenged by the appearance of Adenine, Taion is the only one who avoids any major incorrect assumptions, taking the time to learn as much as he can before doing anything drastic. |

In Muhyo and Roji, during an early case, Muhyo sees a photo of a ghost reaching out to Nana and assumes she's being threatened. Upon seeing the actual ghost, Muhyo tries to sentence it for "unlawful entry to a residence and attempted bodily injury," but the envoys he uses to sentence it turn on Muhyo because the ghost hadn't committed that crime. The ghost was Nana's father, and he was returning to his own home and giving Nana an Affectionate Gesture to the Head, making him merely guilty of "unauthorized posterial floating." | |

Luckily for Izuku, the public, several heroes (including All Might and Endeavor) and even the HPSC not only disagree with Aizawa's claims, but all of them view Bakugou as having little potential or as a future villain in the making, while viewing Aizawa's actions as unjustified and downright idiotic. | |

Unfortunately, they're not after something so mundane as money; in fact, one of the things they're looking for is a kid about her age with the last name of Turner. Oops. She also expects pirates to honor the Code of the Brethren as if it were a binding rule of law, not realizing that Barbossa is a Rules Lawyer who sees the Code more as "guidelines." | |

My Hero School Adventure Is All Wrong As Expected: Neito Monoma already thought that all Class 1-A students were a bunch of stuck-up posers, so him seeing the whole lot of them stare down and not even verbally acknowledge a General Course student who asked if any of them wanted to team up just confirmed his beliefs. The student in question? Hitoshi Shinso, whose Compelling Voice Quirk requires the target to verbally respond to him. Monoma's assumptions come back to bite him when he tells the student his name later in the cavalry battle after a bit of flattery only for Shinso to subsequently force him to hand over all of his and Setsuna's headbands. | |

The adventurer assumes this is a Secret Test of Character to see if he is greedy enough to choose the flashiest-looking sword out of the collection, which is guaranteed to result in Death by Materialism or worse. He instead picks up a humble wooden sword thinking it's safe... only for his arm to turn wooden as well, much to the troll's amusement. | |

At one point in Babe, Farmer Hoggett believes Babe to be a sheep-killer, because he found one of his ewes lying dead in his pasture with a gaping wound, and fresh blood on Babe's snout. Hoggett takes Babe to the barn and prepares his shotgun to terminate the killer pig. Fortunately, Hoggett's wife announces that local police are seeking armed sheep rustlers in the area. She then notices her husband cradling his shotgun. | |

In Doom, Sarge thinks that he's The Hero and main character when it's actually Reaper. At one point, he even says "I'm not supposed to die!" when he's dragged off by a monster. He ultimately turns out to be the villain of the movie and Final Boss. | |

What If Krillin Became a Saiyan?: During the Saiyan Arc, Krillin isn't worried about running out of time to make the trip back down Snake Way, as he figures that Kami and the others gathered up the Dragon Balls so that they could wish him and Goku back to Earth directly from King Kai's instantly. When Kami admits that they hadn't considered making that kind of backup plan, Krillin immediately panics. | |

Danny Phantom: Valerie is a Well-Intentioned Extremist who thinks she's The Hero, thinks The Hero is the villain, and thinks the Big Bad is her Mentor. When she discovers the truth, she is not pleased by the way she's been manipulated. Not that she gets to do anything about it, since that episode came right before the Grand Finale. Jack also thinks this way. To him, he's the hero of Amity Park, Danny Phantom is a menace, and he's widely regarded as a threat to all ghosts. Obviously, the opposite is true. |

She-Ra: Princess of Power: In Reluctant Dragon this occurs twice with new character Sorrowful the Dragon. At first the heroes assume Sorrowful to be attacking the village he's found in in retaliation for being woken up (he was asleep in a cavern under their well that got accidentally blown up). In reality, Sorrowful is a very timid dragon who was clumsily trying to escape what he thought was an attack before he could be hurt. Once the dust settles, the Rebels decide to take advantage of the fearsome reputation dragons have and set Sorrowful up as a Fake Ultimate Hero for the village in order to protect it. The nearby Imp overhears the plan, though, and reports back that Sorrowful is a coward, prompting Leech and Mantenna to attack and get the upper hand. They even goad Sorrowful by telling him how his new friends will all soon be slaves and he'll probably end up a circus pet for the Horde. This turns out to be a mistake as Sorrowful is in fact a Cowardly Lion, and while he won't fight for himself, he will defend his friends. And he's still a powerful dragon. Cue three villains running off with their collective tail between their legs. | |

In a conversation with Elliot later on, Ellen explains how Magus may have reached that conclusion based on misinterpreting and projecting onto her Clone Angst from earlier in the series, and sets the record straight by pointing out there is nothing stopping her from using magic to change her sex if she actually wanted to. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "The Ticket Master", the Grand Galloping Gala is introduced as a huge party, which Twilight Sparkle and each of her friends want to attend due to their grand ideas about what it'll be like. Come the episode "The Best Night Ever", and each of them realizes they made very wrong assumptions: Applejack wanted to set up a stall selling snacks to raise funds to help her family. She didn't think the event would already be catered, or that the high-class ponies who'd attend such an event would consider themselves above eating commoner food. Rainbow Dash wanted to meet up with her idols, the Wonderbolts, who'd be special guests, and hang out with them. She didn't think that the other guests might also have the same idea, making them too busy to actually talk to her. Pinkie Pie wants to have wild, crazy fun, and assumed the biggest party in Equestria would be the perfect place for this. The party is actually a formal affair whose guests don't appreciate Pinkie's rowdiness. Rarity thinks Prince Blueblood will fall in love with her. Turns out he's actually a jerk who doesn't care about her. Fluttershy, being a Friend to All Living Things, is excited about the exotic creatures that will be present in the event's garden and thinks that since the animals of Ponyville love her, the Gala's will do the same. The animals are instead scared of her since they don't know her, frustrating her until she falls into an extreme rage. Twilight Sparkle just wants to have a chat with her mentor, Princess Celestia, who is too busy greeting every guest. "Power Ponies": The villain Mane-iac knows that Humdrum is the Plucky Comic Relief Useless Sidekick to the titular characters and doesn't bother to incapacitate or capture him. Normally she'd be right, but this time around Humdrum is actually Spike, who is far from useless. Surprise surprise, it bites her hard in the rear end. Spike makes the same assumptions about himself that the Mane-iac does before he manages to realize otherwise. In "Triple Threat", Spike assumes that Ember and Thorax won't get along and conspires to keep them apart with Two-Timer Date shenanigans. Not only do they notice very quickly what he's doing, but when circumstances end up having them meet anyway, they end up bonding and giving each other good advice as rulers. |

The main character of Life Ore Death has this almost as a character trait due to learning English during the story. Usually it's Played for Laughs, such as when Ferris believes Kaldur'ahm to be a clone instead of Conner, but it's Played for Drama in the second season when Ferris is under the impression that Dr. Fate is consensually sharing Zatara's body, and still taking days off for him to see Zatanna, which isn't the case. | |

In the first episode, he gets threatened by a gang of thugs and then sees Felt approaching them. He thinks this beauty must be the one who summoned him and that she is coming to save him, only to be shocked when she ignores and goes past them, then the thugs beat the crap out of him. | |

DuckTales: The comic has two examples during the story "The Once and Future Warlock": Launchpad assumes that Laird's influence on Doofus (who he's brainwashed) won't cause the young duck to make any moves against him, given that Doofus is a friend and fan of his. This nearly gets him zapped. In the same story, Scrooge and the boys assume that Laird's brainwashing has completely wiped away Doofus' real personality. They're wrong, and the real Doofus is ultimately saved. |

It takes him until the fight with Kid Buu to accept his destiny as Goku's lancer. Mr. Satan has basically everyone on Earth convinced that he is The Hero. In the end, he becomes a sort of lancer. To be fair, Goku doesn't hold it against him in the end - and it even works for the sake of the heroes once. |

Assuming that it must be his womanizing retainer Laslow, he marches off to lecture him again... only to find that it was actually Gray who was harassing the girls, and Laslow's been on his best behavior. In Chapter 78, Mikoto gives her granddaughter Kana a closed envelope as a gift, telling her if she's going to eat delicious food, she can use this. Kana's father, Corrin, assumes that Mikoto just gave her money and is spoiling her. When he gets his hands on the gift and opens it, however, he finds out that Mikoto just gave her chopsticks. Despite this misunderstanding, he is happy about this and goes out with his daughter to eat. |

In Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle, Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard often misreads the clues in a case, and has at least twice detained an innocent party. Fortunately, the Baker Street detective usually deduces the particulars and rightly names the culprit within a day. This cements the civil rivalry between Lestrade and Holmes. This actually happened to Holmes himself in one story where he and Watson are following tracks in the woods only for all of Holmes's deductions to be proven wrong when they find something completely innocent at the end of said tracks. Holmes offers this event to Watson as a way to chastise him if he ever becomes overly confident in his deductive powers. |

She's depressed because he doesn't fight for her but for her country. So, if she stages her own kidnapping and recruits Domon Kasshu, a rival that George spurned, he'll fight for her honor, right? WRONG! George does come for her, fully aware of her trick, and delivers a What the Hell, Hero? speech on how he's much more likely to be absorbed into fighting Domon than on Maria's honor as well as chewing her out for her recklessness. Domon's partner Rain has to bail Maria out, she's Put on a Bus until the second part of the series, and when she comes back she's learned from her mistakes. | |

Merlin: Arthur believes that he is the main character, any Monster of the Week can be defeated with his sword, Merlin is just his dumb sidekick, and his Knight Templar father has the right idea overall in trying to eliminate all wizards and witches. When Princess Mithian arrives in Camelot to marry King Arthur, she's under the impression that she's the Official Love Interest in a Perfectly Arranged Marriage, finding Arthur to be handsome and charming, and for her to genuinely come to care for him over the course of their engagement. From her perspective, her greatest challenge is to win over Merlin, a servant who seems oddly disgruntled at her presence and who she tries to make friends with, believing that he's either jealous of her relationship with Arthur or doubtful that she has sincere feelings for him. It's not until the end of the episode that she realizes she was the Romantic Runner-Up all along, and simply an impediment to the eventual marriage of Arthur to the woman he really loves. Merlin's dislike of her had nothing to do with her at all, but was a display of solidarity to Guinevere. |

In truth, Deadpool is acting on his own trying to provoke the Hulk into killing him, but even when he tells Hulk that nobody hired him, the Hulk still assumes it's part of some more elaborate scheme. Later in the same story, some somewhat smart soldiers see the Hulk rampaging and guess that Deadpool is the cause of it. They guess right, but when they see Deadpool in a bus full of children, they assume he's taken them hostage when he was actually trying to rescue them. | |

The other half he's at a normal high school playing bodyguard for his love interest, and he proves completely incapable of adjusting his behavior or his situation analyses to fit the undercover assignment. Someone has put something (a love letter) in your shoe locker? Follow standard procedure for dealing with suspected IEDs and blow it up. The gym teacher screams at you and treats you like scum? Clearly he is the local Drill Sergeant Nasty; salute and thank him honestly. | |

The Gravity Falls episode "Sock Opera" has Mabel setting up a huge puppet show to please her latest Guy of the Week, who has an unearthly fascination with puppets. When Mabel sets off a bundle of pyrotechnics and destroys the whole stage when trying to take down the episode's villain, she assumes that the audience will think it's All Part of the Show. In reality, they're less than pleased with the ending. | |

The Fugitive: Almost everyone believes that Doctor Kimble murdered his wife, especially the jury at his trial. They heard the recorded 9-1-1 call, with the dispatcher asking the victim if anyone else is there, and the distinct reply, "Richard, he's trying to kill me!" Surely, this was deathbed testimony as to her killer; in fact, it was a warning to Kimble that the murderer was still loose in their home. The most unswayable character is federal marshal Sam Gerard, who is determined to stuff the escaped Kimble back into prison or into a grave. When Kimble escapes through the storm drains and comes to a point where they bisect, he tosses his jacket down one tunnel and goes down the other one. The pursuing US Marshals aren't fooled for a second, they simply split up in order to check both passages. Later, when calling his lawyer, Kimble lies and says he's in St. Louis, correctly suspecting that the cops might be eavesdropping, but not that their equipment would determine that Kimble's in Chicago. |
