Removed Like You Would Really Do It (there was no real reason for Stan to get his memories back besides making the ending happier; it wouldn’t disrupt the status quo, so it very well could have happened)


* LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt: If you stop and really think about it, there is simply no way the show is going to end with Stan never getting his memory back. Doesn't stop the scene from being any less heartbreaking though.

** The Zodiac Wheel finally appears, and its intention is confirmed to be destroying Bill.
** Each symbol on the Wheel representing a different character. Who each symbol represented had been correctly guessed as well, with varying degrees of certainty.

That's for infamous moments. Something like that is much more positive, though might not a hundred percent be this trope.


* NeverLiveItDown: Bill singing "We'll Meet Again." It lasts for ten seconds, and has no significant impact on the episode whatsoever. However, it quickly became one of Bill's most iconic moments in the entire show, even inspiring people to make [[https://youtu.be/-dPLCQDfIoY their own full length Bill Cipher song covers.]] For the ''Gravity Falls'' ten-year-anniversary, Alex Hirsch even made [[https://youtu.be/-RbkipgjqlU his own full length cover with Bill and other characters.]]

* AssPull: No real explanation is given as to why the llama represents Pacifica. She just happened to be wearing a sweater that had a llama on it. Even Wendy was given a reason as to how she was intrinsically connected to the ice. Granted, you could argue it represents her [[CharacterDevelopment character growth]], as Pacifica accepted the sweater as a gift from Mabel, but the fact that the sweater happens to have a llama on it still has nothing to do with anything.

The connection was briefly foreshadowed by the llama painting in "Northwest Mansion Mystery", but even that is rather easy to miss, and it otherwise isn't a motif associated with the character.

* HesJustHiding: The possibility that Bill survived the deletion immediately became a point of discussion. The two theories are:
** The Axolotl listened to his incantation, and he was reincarnated into a different being.
** Stanley's memory being brought back also brought Bill back, and he is now secretly living inside of Stan's head.

Oh, I just looked at the edit history and realized people were having a debate before I edited it. I think that was the trope you were looking for, you weird, weird sexyman worshippers.

* JerkassWoobie: While he's done more than enough to deserve it, it's hard not to feel a bit bad for Bill as he meets his final fate. His conceited, smart guy persona completely crumbles, and he becomes genuinely, truly ''terrified.''

okay, based on the description, pretty sure Jerkass Woobie was the trope OP wanted, but couldn't find, so just settled on Karmic Overkill. Besides, I haven't seen a single person say Bill's death was too harsh. Feel bad for him, yes, but everyone agrees he had it coming


* KarmicOverkill: Bill sounds genuinely ''terrified'' in his final scene. Despite all the hell he's put the cast through, it's hard not to feel bad for him as he's [[VillainsWantMercy begging for his life]].
* MoralEventHorizon: On the other hand, Bill definitely shows who he truly is when he blackmails Ford by threatening to kill the children if he does not comply.

Cry For The Devil is about learning a villain's past and feeling bad for him, that did not happen nor did the example explain how it did

* KarmicOverkill: Despite it being a KarmicDeath, many fans felt sorry for Bill when he started [[VillainsWantMercy begging for his life]].

** Stan's amnesia lasted all of 15 minutes. In fact, he pretty much regained his memories without indication of an amnesia in the first place.

** Stan's amnesia lasted all of 15 minutes. In fact, he pretty much regained his memories without indication of an amnesia in the first place. (Hirsch mentions on the DVD commentary that he considered drawing it out, and an entire epilogue episode was considered, but it was just too sad--"You didn't want to watch it. It was miserable.")
