Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': Someone is granted three wishes. The first wish is used on something trivial, [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor the second wish backfires horribly]], and the third wish is used to reverse the second wish.
* '''Straight''': Bob is granted three wishes by genie. To test out his wishes, he first wishes for a [[SatiatingSandwich sandwich]]. He puts a little bit more thought into his second wish, and wishes that his dead wife was alive again but the genie brings her back as a zombie. Bob then wishes that his wife was dead again for his third wish.
* '''Exaggerated''': ???
* '''Downplayed''': Bob wishes for a mansion full of money as his second wish, but loses his friends because he has nothing in common with them any more. He then wishes that he was just as poor as he was before he made the second wish, [[AnAesop because he values his friends more than money]].
* '''Justified''': Bob is impulsive and doesn't like to plan, so he wastes his wishes without properly thinking about the consequences.
* '''Inverted''': ???
* '''Subverted''': Bob wishes for his wife to be alive, but the genie feels sympathy for Bob as he's obviously grieving, so brings his wife back as she was before she died.
* '''Double Subverted''': Or so we thought- it turns out [[CameBackWrong his wife's body was brought back, but not her personality]]. She's now AxeCrazy and tries to murder Bob, forcing him to use his third wish to make her dead again.
* '''Parodied''': ???
* '''Zig Zagged''': Bob uses his first wish on something meaningful which greatly benefits him, but his second wish still backfires and he still reverses it with his third wish.
* '''Averted''': Bob is only granted one wish by the genie.
