Alice has told Bob something very important. "Bob, I want you to take this money straight to the bank. Don't stop anywhere on the way, and especially don't stop to talk to that skank, Carol! Bob? Are you listening, Bob?" Unfortunately, Bob is either not listening, or he's kind of a ditz. As he walks to the bank, he tries to remember what Alice said... "Blah blah, I'm naggy and whiny, blah blah, talk to Carol." Oh, right! Compare Rashomon Style, in which multiple flashbacks fail to sync up with both the truth and each other. Examples

"Blah blah, I'm naggy and whiny, blah blah, talk to Carol." Oh, right! This trope is basically a flashback that doesn't quite match up to what was actually said in the prior scene or chapter. It's not necessarily a Self-Serving Memory, but may be a Super-Trope. Compare Rashomon Style, in which multiple flashbacks fail to sync up with both the truth and each other. Examples
