A character says something innocuous, but can easily be misconstrued as something really dirty. Different from Innocent Innuendo in that the audience isn't misled--it's just the character him or herself not filtering her thoughts properly. Other, more dirty-minded characters may make fun of the speaker or chime in with "That's what she said!" More commonly, the speaker catches herself and, after a Beat, utters the title phrase. A related phenomenon is this sequence: "Can I rephrase that?" is a common stock phrase associated with this trope. Examples of That Came Out Wrong include:
