You know that moment when a character is about to reveal some vital information just to get taken out as he opens his mouth? I hate when shows or movies do that.

And it is so obvious it's coming. The character begins by saying things that start with the words "if I tell you this..." At that point I'm drumming my fingers just waiting for the mystery shooter to take his shot, not sitting at the edge of my seat waiting with baited breath for the big reveal.
