Someone seems at first to be saying one thing, but as they continue, they turn out to be saying something very different. Bonus points if what they turn out to be saying is the polar opposite of what they at first seemed to be saying.

{{quote| '''Leslie''' : Look, I don't like to throw around the word "butthead" often. If you call everyone a butthead, it kind of loses its impact. But I can say, without hesitation... that Tom is being a real dick.}}
* Very common in competition cooking shows. For example, "I have one big complaint about your dish... I can't stop eating it!" shows up a few times on [[
* In an episode of ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'', Ted is on a date with a girl who keeps drinking wine midsentence. She keeps saying things that can be perceived as racist remarks, confessions of fratricide, etc., then finishes the sentence after the wine sip so that it takes on a completely different meaning. As Ted is imagining literal baggage appear around the room every time she says something and it disappears when she finishes her sentence, the scene culminates with her saying something particularly bad and a suitcase appears labeled "LET HER FINISH HER DRINK, TED."
** By the time she says "That reminds me, I killed my brother (''sip'') with this joke I told him", it's hard to believe she's not doing it on purpose.

{{quote| '''Moss''': I spoke to the Elders of the Internet not one hour ago. I told them about Jen winning Employee of the Month, and they were ''so impressed'' that they wanted to do whatever they could to help.<br />

* Often used by Charlie in ''[[
** When Mac and Dennis inform him that they're going to train him to be a pit fighter, he says, "What?! ... That is ''brilliant!''"
** When Mac and Dennis argue about whether to hit him with a trashcan or if he's ready for a chair, Charlie breaks them up. "Guys, guys, guys... I can handle a chair."

{{quote| '''Homestar''': Strong Sad, you've had some bad ideas in your time, but this is the best idea you've ever had!}}
* There are several [[Memetic Mutation|Advice-Animal-style memes]] based around this, where the top line follows a stereotype of some sort and the bottom line changes the meaning. For instance, Successful Black Man ("I got Arrested... [[Arrested Development (TV series)|Development]] on DVD"), Ordinary Muslim Man ("We are going to blow up... a bouncy house for my daughter's birthday"), or Dating Site Murderer ("I will slice you... a delicious piece of this Thanksgiving turkey").

* Some [[Troll]] [[copypasta]] such as [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/5ever 5ever] have the intended recipient of the comment tragically dying after the bait but before the switch. [http://www.the-mainboard.com/index.php?threads/the-pop-tart-tragedy.102427/ For example], a man tells a woman he no longer wants to be her boyfriend, [[Disaster Dominoes|leading to her death]] before he can clarify that he wants to be her ''husband''.

** Actually used a LOT in ''Family Guy''. In the [[Stephen King]] episode, Peter, who is hosting and kicking off the next mini-story, described the plot of ''[[The Shining]]'' and speculates how Stewie would fit perfectly in the starring role, only to say that a parody of ''[[The Shawshank Redemption]]'' is up next.
** Another ''Family Guy'' example.

** In the episode "Don't Even Blink", Doofenshmirtz developed an Invisinator. He explained that he developed it because, whenever the Fireside Girls knock at his door with him at home watching TV and the blinds open, they can see him so he cannot pretend he's not at home. He then told Perry the Platypus he intended to use the invisinator on... the girls so he'd not have to see them.
Line 106:
** In one episode Hank Hill and his friends are playing guitar and singing in the alley. Bill suggests that Hank play "Puff The Magic Dragon", whose lyrics are famously considered to be a drug metaphor. Hank replies, "Bill, do you know what that song is about?" (Pause.) "It's about a dragon. We're grown men."
** Another instance involves the gang of four in the alley, where Bill is wearing dark sunglasses to conceal a black eye he received in a domestic dispute. Bill gives a poor excuse to Dale, which he describes as a "very interesting story", that he received it by accidentally walking into a door. Dale responds, "Hey, wait a minute..." An out of character moment where Dale actually figures out a cover-up is subverted when he concludes, "How was that interesting?"
** Speaking of Dale, he once went to John Redcorn's to talk about a dream. In that dream, Dale saw a Native-American having sex with Nancy. When Dale told that, John Redcorn had an [[Oh Crap]] moment fearing Dale figured out. When Dale reached the part of Nancy giving birth with a baby wearing a headdress, John Redcorn feared Dale figured this out as well. Dale said he saw this dream as a sign ''he'' was a Native American as well. John Redcorn, of course, [[Sure, Let's Go

{{quote| '''Spongebob:''' This...is...GREAT!}}
** Another had Spongebob help his friend Patrick submit a song which is shown to be so awful that it killed the band recording it and causes pain to everyone else within hearing distance. He plays it first with Spongebob by using a giant stereo that is so loud that it demolishes his pineapple. After Patrick asks him eagerly to give him his most honest opinion, Spongebob stares at him solemnly and moves his mouth as if to insult him.

** Another one, this time from "Just One Bite":

* [[Bad Boss|Mr. Burns]] on ''[[The Simpsons (
* Many episodes of [[Fairly Oddparents]] often have Timmy overhearing his parents' conversations, with him usually leaving either in grief or anger before they finish what they're saying. For example Timmy thought his parents hated him because he overheard talk about how much of a burden he was to them, yet after he leaves they then finish out loud that what they previously said is completely opposite of how they really feel about their son. Yeah, Timmy's parents are a bunch of [[Cloudcuckoolander|Cloud Cuckoolanders]].
Line 125:
* [[Mick Foley]] in his autobiography ''Have a Nice Day!'' relates the following from when he was in [[ECW]] and headed to [[WCW]]. The crowd chanted at him "You [[Sell Out|sold out]]! You sold out!" Foley responded by getting on the mic.
{{quote| I have a feeling that a year from now, I'm going to have to look in the mirror and admit in my heart that I sold out...I sold out the Garden, I sold out the Coliseum, I sold out every damn arena in this country!}}

{{quote| Republicans need to stop saying Barack Obama is an elitist, or looks down on rural people, and just admit you don’t like him because of something he can’t help, something that’s a result of the way he was born.

* When Madeleine L'Engle was asked whether the movie adaptation of [[A Wrinkle in Time]] measured up to her expectations, she reportedly said, "Yes, it did. [[Take That|I expected it to be bad, and it was.]]"
