Is there a trope for "important episode in hindsight" or something like that? I'm doing some recap pages for Codename: Kids Next Door and want to mention how Operation: C.H.A.D., a episode in season 1, seemed not important to the show at the time due to being a simple Slice of Life story, the only to be important later down the line due to introducing a character that would become a major supporting character/villain later on.
