Whenever the antagonists comes up with a scheme to ruin the protagonist's life or get out of trouble, they never think about the long-term results nor to search for flaws that might ruin them. Therefore, this warrants Revenge Films a Didn't Think This Through subpage.
- "My dad was screwing my wife. My mom was congratulating them..."
: Jill willingly sleeps with her father-in-law in a desperate attempt to have a baby, even hoping her husband Jack would happily raise the resulting child even after he catches them red-handed.

After his father is arrested for attempting to rape his other daughter-in-law, Jill tries to get her ex back by claiming the man raped her, but Jack recorded her previous statement of deliberately cheating on him. In the end, Jill's wish for a baby ruined her life due to her failure to realize her husband wouldn't go along with her plans but instead would be disgusted with her. - "I got suspected of an affair I didn't have, everyone abandoned me, and I got mentally ill": Mrs. Stan's sister-in-law decided to frame her for her affairs with Mrs. Anderson's husband by having them in the former's house to ward off suspicion.

- "I had a miscarriage because my mother-in-law beat me": Kylie's mother-in-law forced her to miscarry her upcoming baby boy because she had it before her sister-in-law, whom she treated like a daughter.

However, she didn't take into account that the teacher she bedded would still have feelings for her, nor that Taylor was actually a virgin, which drove her plans into the ground. Moreover, she didn't foresee that Melanie would record her threats and expose her to the school. To top it off, the biggest flaw in Maria's plan would be that if she was successful, she could have ended up ruining Taylor's career as well.
- "She ruined her own wedding by revealing all sorts of stories about her past": Taylor exposes her entire past (where she was sexually assaulted when she was 12, had multiple affairs and abortions as a high schooler and had another affair before meeting her groom) at her own wedding, hoping everyone would feel sympathetic for her.

- "Friend cheated on her husband but had the stupid idea she was going to receive 10k dollars": Naomi McCormick planned to divorce her rich husband and marry her lover in the hopes she would receive huge sums of money in compensation because men were the ones working.

- "My sister stole all of my boyfriends and I was really hurt but then": After Sean repeatedly rejected her advances and called her out for being a shallow, manipulative vixen for attempting to steal him from Ariel, Erin posted a TikTok stating she was in a serious relationship with him but he dumped her, telling her fans that she won't give up, hoping they would support her. Even if Sean's talent agency hasn't released the statement that debunked her lies, Erin's male fans would still turn on her for dating, let alone going after a man who wasn't them, which eventually resulted in them posting revenge porn of her once she's been found out dating five men simultaneously.
- "My sister slept with my husband and so I invited our parents to teach her a lesson": OP's husband requested her to install a lock on their bedroom door for privacy reasons, but she soon finds out he wanted to keep her out while having his affairs with her sister, Mary.

Moreover, she even bragged about it to the whole neighborhood while her son told his friends about moving into Ali's house. However, Blair didn't take into account that Ali's husband had a twin brother who mooched off of women and was willing to impersonate him in order to do so, nor that she would end up suffering what boils down to rape by deception. In other words, Blair's plan was screwed from the word "go" and everything went downhill for her the moment Ali told her the truth.
- "Found out my husband was cheating on me, then…": Katy offered her daughter-in-law, Ali, a decent amount of money in exchange for divorcing Bob and letting him marry Blair instead.

- "My husband cheated on me and my mother-in-law offered me $40,000 to divorce him": The OP's abusive mother-in-law abused her for marrying Thomas and getting in the way of having him marry Melissa, going as far as encouraging affairs between the latter two behind the OP's back. When the MIL eventually cornered the OP into signing divorce papers in exchange for a sum of money, she gleefully accepted much to the abusive hag's surprise. It turns out that, unbeknownst to the MIL and Melissa's family, Thomas racked up $80,000 in debt from gambling at horse races and was infertile on top of that. It wasn't until Thomas remarried Melissa that the secret was exposed; therefore, the newlyweds' families fought over it.
