My favourite part of Othello, shortly after the titular character smothers Desdemona with a pillow (spoiler alert!) and the maid Emilia finds her breathing her last:
EMILIA
123 Oh no, you're dying, Desdemona! Who did this to you?
DESDEMONA
124 Nobody. I did it. Peace out.
[she dies]
OTHELLO
125 Crap, why is she dead?
EMILIA
126 Dunno.
OTHELLO
127 Well, like she said, I didn't do it.
EMILIA
128 She did say that.
OTHELLO
129 ...She's a big liar, I definitely killed her!
EMILIA
130 Aw, you're an a-hole!
