'''Instead:''' That's exactly what happens, and King Boo somehow escapes the painting, makes another plan to destroy Luigi, and shatters the Dark Moon, which causes the ghosts of Evershade Valley to turn hostile, thus kicking off the events of the game. This your fault, E. Gadd!

'''Instead:''' Just like in chapter, she tells Vivian to get the bomb ready when it was clear that she never had it which she then gets into another pointless argument with her by accusing her of losing it and threatens her with punishment if she doesn't find it once she and Marilyn return. \\

** Bowser successfully invades Peach's castle, seals her and her entire staff into the walls, and disperses the Power Stars among his lieutenants.\\

'''Following This, You'd Expect:''' Bowser to wise up and either treat the bombs surrounding his other two boss arenas (i.e. the Fire Sea and the Sky) as the destructive weapons that they are, or get rid of them so they can't be used against him.\\

'''The Result:''' Her latest form of abuse against her ends up being the last resort for Vivian and when she meets with Mario, who recently lost his identity to [[spoiler: Doopliss]] and helps him fight his impersonator and ended up becoming Mario's partner from that point forward due to his unconditional kindness towards her which Beldam never did. [[SarcasmMode Congratulations, Beldam,]] [[NiceJobFixingItVillain you treated your poor sister so badly that she ended up finding family in your mortal enemy.]]

* A very humorous one; Bowser's segment after chapter five, he finds Lord Crump at Twilight Town, who is searching for the Superbombomb that Beldam had misplaced earlier, and they would end up clashing when they meet up and they each would summon their armies and Lord Crump throws the Superbombomb at Bowser, which did not go off. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' Bowser to realize that the Superbombomb, like all bombs, is flammable and refrain from trying to light it and use a different attack as an alternative. \\
'''Instead:''' Bowser, in an attempt to show off how a "real expert" pulls it off by ''literally breathing fire on it!'' Even Lord Crump realized that it was a bad move since he knew how powerful the bomb was. \\
'''You'd Then Expect:''' Bowser to realize what he just did and throw the Superbombomb at Lord Crump or better yet throw it as far away as he can before it explodes. \\
'''Instead:''' He just stands there and the Superbombomb ends up blowing up both armies.



* The Shadow Sirens [[spoiler:minus Vivian]] learn that the sixth Crystal Star is [[spoiler:in Poshley Heights and is at the famed Poshley Sanctum]] and they were able to find it there after Mario and his friends arrive. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' That the Shadow Sirens will realize that there is no maximum security at the [[spoiler:Poshley Sanctum]] which would make their theft too easy and check to make sure it is real first and investigate in case it wasn't. \\
'''Instead:''' They immediately steal the [[spoiler:red herring Crystal Star]] and flee without a second thought. \\
'''The Result:''' Detective Pennington, [[spoiler:the manager of the Poshley Sanctum]] informed Mario that what the Shadow Sirens stole was a fake and the necessary precautions were taken to ensure that the real Crystal Star is safe, [[spoiler:which was hiding in the mural version of the sanctum the whole time.]] Sir Grodus was NOT happy to hear that they were so easily fooled by a fake.
* Sir Grodus, despite being a careful planner throughout the game, isn't immune to this either. [[spoiler:After he successfully awakens the Shadow Queen, who demonically possessed Princess Peach, he ordered her to take out Mario and his partners and the Shadow Queen is annoyed at him for his disrespect towards her.]] \\
'''You'd Expect:''' [[spoiler: Grodus to ask for mercy and forgiveness and offer to be her right-hand man instead. He may not end up being a supreme ruler of the world, but he will at least be given some position of power to help her achieve world domination. But even if that doesn't work out considering that the Shadow Queen is willing to break any promise she makes and gets some form of punishment, he would have at least tried.]] \\
'''Instead:''' [[spoiler: He ends up learning the hard way that EvilIsNotAToy as he, a mortal being, tries to make the Shadow Queen, a demon with numerous supernatural powers, do what he says and had the absolute gall to threaten her to send her back to the depths.]] \\
'''The Result''' [[spoiler: He only ends up angering her enough for her to use her dark power to reduce him to a mere head. While he survives, it was still very much an idiotic move on his part.]]



** Mimi also does the same thing Kammy did before her final battle and asks you what you are afraid of.\\
'''You'd Expect''': That Mimi would know something was up.\\
'''Instead''': She gives you the items you've asked for, which can range from cute to creepy (even providing an optional rematch with Francis from chapter 3). At least she wises up before she challenges Peach to battle.
* In ''VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash'', [[spoiler:Bowser arrives at Port Prisma and gets an eyeful of the rainbow-hued Prisma Fountain, filled to the brim with life-giving paint provided by the Big Paint Stars, and gets the idea in his head to have a rainbow-colored shell]].\\

'''Instead''': She gives you the items you've asked for, which can range from cute to creepy (even providing an optional rematch with Francis from chapter 3). At least Princess Peach even points out that she recalls that she had already disguised herself as Merlee during their first encounter and her doing it again was enough to raise suspicions about her. At least, Mimi wises up before she challenges Peach to battle.
* In ''VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar'', after Kersti makes an entrance and sees that the Comet Star was destroyed by Bowser and the Royal Stickers were scattered across the land. She blames Mario, who then explains that it was Bowser who caused these events to unfold. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' Kersti to immediately listen to Mario's side of the story and apologize for the misunderstanding. \\
'''Instead:''' She accuses him of lying and only stops yelling at him when he agrees to help her find the Royal Stickers. [[spoiler:At least, during the ending when Bowser tries to get to the Comet Star the second time around, she immediately stops him from repeating the scenario all over again.]]

* ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'':
* Beldam is perhaps the worst offender in regard to many of her actions, which especially includes the drama that occurs between her and Vivian:
** In chapter two, when she tells Vivian to present the sketch of Mario to them, Vivian gets defensive and tells her that Beldam was entrusted with the sketch. At the same time, Mario and his partners arrive as they have their conversation. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' Beldam to check to see if she herself has the sketch to confirm Vivian's claim and pull it out. \\
'''Instead:''' She accuses Vivian of lying and refusing to show them the sketch and confiscates the necklace as punishment. During their argument, Mario and his friends quietly slip by at first.
** After Mario and his friends leave Flurrie's House to find her beloved necklace since she refuses to leave without it around her neck, Beldam continues her squabble with Vivian, and Beldam pulls out the sketch of Mario and they realize that they ended up realizing that Mario passed by. \\
'''You'd Then Expect:''' Beldam to realize that she had the sketch the whole time and apologize to Vivian for the misunderstanding, plus she literally pulled out the sketch a few seconds earlier which literally proves that Vivian was telling the truth. \\
'''Instead:''' She blames Vivian ''again'' for her supposed rebellion and never realized that she had it herself to begin with.
** During the confrontation with Mario when they learn who had Flurrie's necklace, Beldam agrees to introduce the Shadow Sirens to them when asked and they each recite their pieces of their title to them, with Vivian accidentally said "Shadow Beauties" when it was her turn. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' Beldam to calmly correct Vivian about who they are. \\
'''Instead:''' [[DisproportionateRetribution She rages at Vivian for getting it wrong, refuses to listen to Vivian's reasoning,]] and [[FelonyMisdemeanor punishes her further by refusing to return it to her]].
**During chapter four, the Shadow Sirens prepare the Superbombomb to use against Mario, Beldam was given the responsibility of holding onto it. \\
'''You'd Expect:''' Beldam to remember that she has the Superbombomb on her and keep it on her at all times. \\
'''Instead:''' Just like in chapter, she tells Vivian to get the bomb ready when it was clear that she never had it which she then gets into another pointless argument with her by accusing her of losing it and threatens her with punishment if she doesn't find it once she and Marilyn return. \\
'''The Result:''' Her latest form of abuse against her ends up being the last resort for Vivian and when she meets with Mario, who recently lost his identity to [[spoiler: Doopliss]] and helps him fight his impersonator and ended up becoming Mario's partner from that point forward due to his unconditional kindness towards her which Beldam never did. [[SarcasmMode Congratulations, Beldam,]] [[NiceJobFixingItVillain you treated your poor sister so badly that she ended up finding family in your mortal enemy.]]



'''The Result:''' Mario and a recently [[HeelFaceTurn side changed]] Vivian guess his real name, beat him up again, get Mario's body back and take his Crystal Star for good measure.

'''You'd Expect:''' [[spoiler:Beldam to realize that her mistreatment of her youngest sister has resulted in her leaving and resolve to treat Doopliss better.]] \\
'''Instead:''' [[spoiler: She clearly learned nothing from her mistakes and treats him just as bad as she did with Vivian.]]

'''You'd Expect:''' Beep-0 to stay on-topic and keep his reasons more innocent by telling her if she knew someone else besides the Spark Hunters about how to deal with the shields, which would have made the conversation less tense for Edge, [[spoiler: especially since she has a dark past that she never told anyone about.]]\\
