Perhaps Didn't See That Coming? Alice had the reasonable expectation she'd get her bonus before being blindsided by the news she won't get it.

What's the trope for "buying in advance"?

For the general case, seconding Didn't See That Coming, and adding Diabolus ex Machina when its particularly out of the blue.
