Depending on how this plays out, this can also result in DoIReallySoundLikeThat and/or a [[JerkassRealization Jerkass]] or HeelRealization. The former for if the character simply takes note of how friend's freak out resembles or takes cues from their own, and the latter for if they realize that [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone by voicing their own agitation, they had unwittingly been ignoring their friend's, if not accidentally adding to it.]]

Usually a form of BaitAndSwitch. To add a twist, it's the character less likely to get angry, and may convey a TranquilFury.
