10 TV Plot Twists That Were Hiding In Plain Sight

1. Buster's Arm Was Destined To Come Off - Arrested Development

Returning to those moments when a TV show decides to quite literally spell out a stunning twist earlier in the day, and to that time Arrested Development came armed with a hilariously blatant piece of foreshadowing in regards to one rather socially awkward Bluth.

With Buster unfortunately falling victim to a loose seal in Season 2's aptly named Out on a Limb episode, the hapless soul finds himself losing a hand to the sea-dwelling creature, much to the surprise of his family and fans.

However, in what would turn out to be some of the cheekiest clues you're ever likely to overlook within a much-loved sitcom, some six or so episodes before Buster became "all right", the show actually told you straight up what his future would entail.

Everything from Buster claiming a party will be "off the hook", his admiring of a hand-shaped seat, the playing of the claw arcade game and grabbing hold of a seal toy, and finally, Buster perching on a bench with the words "ARM OFF" brilliantly being positioned beside him all tell you precisely what is heading this unfortunate Buster's way down the road.
