Opened.
It's a big improvement.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Really demonstrates the trope. from me.

Hmmm, I had to look twice to notice the red-stained handkerchief which is key for understanding the situation.
So, wait, did the villain actually do it or not? Because if he didn't, it's not an example.
It's a more clear illustration than the current, for sure.
Not a big improvement, but one nonetheless.
Check out my fanfiction!Lateral change for me.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanHuge improvement. The current is only dialog. Suggestion adds visuals.
Image Source. Please update whenever an image is changed.The suggestion is a bit better than the current, I believe. Sure, you have to look twice before you notice the blood, but that's the point and it's not so unnoticeable that you're likely to completely miss it.
Absent-minded professor and Neverwinter Nights DMI'm not sure if this is a good example? The way this trope usually plays out is that the guilty party is framed for the same crime he actually committed. In the comic, it appears the criminal is framed for a crime (murder) far more serious than the one he actually committed (theft), which feels like a different trope to me, maybe Disproportionate Retribution?

We could also point out the bloody handkerchief in the subtitle.
^ That.
Clock is set.
The clock is way past due on this one. I'm seeing general consensus that the suggestion is at least a slight improvement over the current, so can someone please swap them out so we can get this one over and done? Thanks in advance.

It's up and tagged. I think it works without a caption.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanHearing nothing, let's lock up.
I made a suggestion a while back for a change to this poorly illustrated trope, but didn't find the most telling picture for a replacement. No I have it: First panel of this comic.
