* Mental in ''Film/DumbAndDumber'', a kidnapper who stalks and plans to kill Harry and Lloyd after Lloyd swipes a briefcase full of [[spoiler:ransom money]]. He finally realizes that they're just a couple of idiots naively returning a briefcase to its rightful owner and ''not'' rival criminals -- unfortunately, [[spoiler:they accidentally poison him immediately after he figures this out]].

He finally realizes that they're just a couple of idiots naively returning a briefcase to its rightful owner and ''not'' rival criminals -- unfortunately, [[spoiler:they accidentally poison him immediately after he figures this out]]. Whether he intended to let them go is pretty questionable, though; after [[KickTheDog what he did to Petey]], it's entirely likely Mental would have whacked Harry and Lloyd anyway, just for wasting his time and being such a nuisance. All he says after he finds out the truth is "Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time!" which could go either way.

* ''Manhua/FengShenJi'' loves doing this to its villains:
** Gui Mu, the Great God of the Plague Affiliation, was a murderous asshole for most of the plot who reveled in bringing people suffering. After the first defeat of the gods, however, he has a revelation and decides to devote himself to helping humanity by building his godson, the only person he ever loved, into a good ruler. Unfortunately, his godson betrays him and locks him up simply because Gui Mu is no longer useful to him.
** Similarly, Bai Lian, Sage King and former Great God of the Plague Affiliation, murdered many people purely to torment the main character. After their final fight, Bai Lian has a revelation and realizes that he should reform his ways; before he can even say anything, however, the main character immediately kills him.

* ''TabletopGame/PrincessTheHopeful'': This is one of the fundamental flaws of the Court of Storms, and a large part of what makes them a [[WellIntentionedExtremist Twilight Court]] rather than a [[Ideal Hero Radiant]]. While Storms is under no obligation to punish someone who has successfully cleansed themselves of the Darkness, their Invocation forbids them to show any mercy to those still Tainted even if they are actively working towards redemption.
