Maybe also Ironic Echo Cut.
A common gag in humor fiction is a character or the narrator saying one thing, and then another character proving them right, using the exact same phrasing. I've seen it a bunch of times. For instance:
- Narrator/character: Alice looked so hungry she could eat a horse!
- cut to Alice.
- Alice: I'm so hungry I could eat a horse!
