* This trope is one of the reasons why ''LetsPlay/{{Dream}}'' is so successful in Minecraft Manhunt. Dream plans where and what he will do in a specific situation for one of his videos. Then he tells no one until he actually executes his plan. Meanwhile the Hunters are multiple different human beings, and must coordinate plans between them in real time. This often leads them to speak their plan and thus ruin it by tipping Dream off, or spend time communicating it privately which is slower and buys Dream time. The trope is displayed in the different strategies in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tH4dyOPZnY first]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tylNqtyj0gs last]] 3 Hunters videos: in the former, [[spoiler: Bad tells nobody about his trap and Dream lets his guard down and falls for it]]; while in the latter, the Hunters [[spoiler: brag about how they're setting up an unbeatable trap, and Dream -- knowing that there's a trap -- figures out a way to beat it.]]

* Towards the end of the season season of ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', Eda, Lilith, Raine, their fellow Bards, Steve, Darius, and Eberwolf come up with a plan to stop the Emperor's [[FinalSolution Draining Spell]], which involves Eda getting a Bard Coven Sigil and disguising herself as Raine, taking their place among the other Coven Heads. Eda's curse would then hopefully interfere with the spell and prevent it from killing everyone. Since this plan is explained in detail onscreen, it fails easily; [[spoiler:Belos somehow knew about their plan and arranged for the Coven Heads to stand in a different position to make it easier for Eda to be exposed, as well as have some of his scouts capture the others]].

* ''Film/UnFlic'' has two unspoken plans, one goes better than the other.
** It starts with a vanilla bank robbery, which starts going wrong when the teller hits the alarm.
** Later, The robbers talk vaguely about a TrainJob. This turns out to involve their leader being lowered onto a speeding train from a helicopter at night, and goes perfectly.

* In ''Webcomic/Drowtales'', for unclear reasons (implied to involve a mixture of PoorCommunicationKills and Snadhya'rune's manipulations, but never actually explained), most of the Sarghress clan, lead by Sang, denounces their own colonists as traitors and sentences them to ThePurge. Ariel describes in advance her plan to lure Sang's forces to Felde, trick them into a war with their own Nidraa'chal allies, and then escape. Naturally, every single element of the plan completely backfires. Their airship gets hit beyond repair, so they lose the option of escaping. Felde's forces do in fact briefly mistake Sang for Ariel's reinforcements, but Sang's forces quickly manage to resolve the confusion. In the end, the only thing that saves Ariel's forces from mass execution is Sang's death and the fact that her son is less eager to kill fellow Sarghress, taking them prisoner instead.

** In "Prototype", Carter rigs the DHD on Khalek's planet to send him straight back to Earth if he attempts to go back there, but doesn't get the chance to tell anybody about it before all hell breaks loose. She later says that if she had mentioned it, the plan probably wouldn't have worked as Khalek, with his super hearing, would have overheard.
