** Episode #38 has Tsubasa discover [[spoiler: Tsuyoshi's SanitySlippage due to the Crane Juto's meddling in their lives]]. Mid-way into the episode, Taro approaches him and directly states that he encountered the ex-felon's Juto copy, asking about the circumstances.\\
'''You'd Expect''': Tsubasa to realize that Taro's knowledge of the Juto means a chance to alert the team to the Crane Juto's meddling in his and Kijino's lives.\\
'''Instead''': He decides ItsALongStory and doesn't elaborate, rebuffing Taro's inquiry.\\
'''As A Result''': [[LockedOutOfTheLoop Taro does the same when asked how he knows what a Juto is, needlessly leaving everyone in the dark]]; robbing the mind-addled Tsuyoshi of potential help and padding both mens' LoveTriangle plight out for even longer.

** Episode #30 sees the Noto attempting to invoke EnemyMine between them and the Donbrothers against the bigger threat of the Juto.\\
'''You'd Expect''': The Noto to be straightforward and honest about what they're doing, doing everything they can to make sure they secure enough good will to get the humans on their side - especially with Taro's VillainRespect of the late Sonoi as an easy selling point.\\
'''Instead''': [[IHaveYourWife They have the Anoni kidnap Haruka's aunt]] and send an Anoni representative to the Cafe, revealing that the Noto know full well [[SecretIdentity who the Donbrothers are]] while dumping the major bombshell of suspected Juto identities (namely, Tsuyoshi's wife Miho) onto the team blunt-force; turning what should be a call to action into blackmail.\\
'''As A Result''': The names on the Juto suspect list put Haruka and Tsuyoshi into a state of disarray while leaving everyone else confused, preventing them from taking much in the way of immediate action. [[FromBadToWorse Things go further downhill]] when the Juto invade the Anoni's crash-pad and hijack the ransom for themselves to demand Don Murasame. With his friends distracted by the panic of the situation, Taro is discreetly approached by the Crane Juto and [[TakeAThirdOption given an entirely separate appeal to leave the Juto to her]]. This causes the Noto's [[SarcasmMode definitely-not-blackmail]] to cave in on itself; Taro declining their alliance and the distraction caused by the Crane's invasion of the Cat group's compound giving Haruka enough time to save her aunt.

** At the end of episode 38, Juru congratulates Takamichi for finally defeating Galza in their Graduel while he still had the last Kanaema Stone, Illusia.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' That Juru either hid Illusia for safekeeping or had just gave the stone to Shiguru before the latter left with the Shiny Breaker to defeat Tooth Decay Jamen so the others could be free from the cavities.\\
'''Instead:''' He just congratulates Takamichi [[NiceJobBreakingItHero while holding out Illusia and stating that they had all four stones]]. He then immediately gets interrupted by Yodonna, who then liberates Illusia from him. As Juru and Takamichi fail to get Illusia back, Yodon orders Yodnna and Galza to return to base via Jouki.

* ''Series/TensouSentaiGoseiger'': Robogog of the 10sai had revived Buredoran and converted him into a cyborg renamed Buredo-RUN with all of his memories taken away from him.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Robogog to have either deleted/destroyed the memory drive containing Buredoran's memories or kept it with him wherever he goes. That way, even with a dangerous threat under his division, there's no way Buredo-RUN would be able to fully betray him.\\
'''Instead:''' He doesn't. Not helped by the fact that he also abused Metal Alice right in front of Buredo-RUN, the latter used his primal instinct to tell Metal Alice if there was a way to get his memories back and reinstalled them back to him without Robogog knowing before the final battle against Matrintis begun. By the time Robogog gets told of all this by Buredo-RUN, it's far too late as the leader was now just a talking head that gets decimated by the backstabber minutes after.
