Oh no. Ballerina Nina (Natalie Portman), subsisting on half-boiled eggs and paranoia, didn’t actually stab her rival Lily (Mila Kunis) in a fit of frustrated envy on the day of their performance of Swan Lake. Nina imagined most of her interactions with Lily, even THAT sex scene. Whom did Nina stab then? Herself.

Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) and Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) are both competing to be the best magician in Victorian London. They’ve used every trick in the book. Both used clones: Borden had a secret identical twin, who was involved in stunts, Angier had a special cloning machine, and killed his clones after a trick was performed. Presto!

Frightened altar-boy Aaron Stampler didn’t brutally murder Chicago’s beloved archbishop. It was his alter-ego, Roy. Defense attorney Martin Vail (Richard Gere) successfully proves Aaron’s innocence in court. It’s only later that Vail realises he’s been duped. “There never was a Roy?” he asks. The altar-boy replies: “There never was an Aaron”.

Akash (Ayushmann Khurrana) may or may not have lost his vision after Simi’s (Tabu) attempt to brutally murder him.

A woman (Urmila Matondkar) is alone at home on a stormy evening when she learns that a psychopathic murderer is at large. She jumps at every sound. Then, two strange men (Manoj Bajpayee and Sushant Singh) break into her home, blaming each other for the murders. Who’s the psychopath? It’s the woman all along.

Salman Khan makes a cameo. But it’s too soon. We won’t tell you as whom.

When Karthik talks about it to his girlfriend (Deepika Padukone) and shrink (Shefali Shah), he’s encouraged to not receive the calls, which only angers the telephone-Karthik, who threatens to destroy the suicidal Karthik. Turns out, Karthik is schizophrenic and was leaving phone messages for himself all along.

US Marshal Edward “Teddy” Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) is investigating a hospital for the criminally insane to find out what happened to a woman named Rachel Solando (Emily Mortimer). A storm, a busted vintage car, and a chase later, all is revealed to be an elaborate psychological experiment. Daniels, rendered insane from shooting his wife who drowned their kids in a bout of depression, invented his Teddy persona, preferring to die as a good man rather than “live as a monster”.

John Kramer, the “corpse” in the bathroom, was the Jigsaw Killer who egged Adam and Gordon on to kill each other, and he comes alive right at the end.

Who is Keyser Söze, feared heist master, ruthless killer and impossibly wily villain? Why, it’s petty con artist Verbal Kint (Kevin Spacey) who’s spun his entire yarn from bits and bobs drawn from items in the police precinct. His limp? Even that’s not real!

Samwise Gamgee doesn’t make it.

Jane’s (Shailene Woodley) son Ziggy isn’t the kid who’s been attacking mousey little Amabella at elementary school. Ziggy, however, was born of assault, and has two half-brothers in his classroom. One of them has learnt what Daddy does to Mommy and has been biting and choking Amabella. Oh, and Daddy is the dead guy they’ve been discussing all through the series.

He knows nothing. He’s high-born and doesn’t know it. He’s spared by the Night King and doesn’t know why. The dragon-mum he’s wooing is his aunt and he doesn’t know it.

It has to do with time travel, an alternate reality, a man in a rabbit mask, a fire, a motivational speaker who’s actually a paedophile, and Donnie realising that the only way to keep his world going is to sacrifice himself. Or something. We’re still not sure. Just hum Mad Word by Tears For Fears.

Norman Bates is both the shy, awkward owner of the shady Bates Motel and Mother, the alter-ego he’s taken on after he killed his abusive mother. Oh, and he stabbed Marion to death in the shower.

It’s not Adelaide (Lupita Nyong’o) who’s scared of being attacked by her doppelgänger. Adelaide herself is the fake one. She was swapped when she was a little girl. The woman in the real world, terrified of beaches, is the clone.
