Can anyone name some mysteries in stories where the answer ended up delivering and was better than the mystery itself? - eviltoast

I’ve watched shows, movies, read comics or listened to podcasts where there is a lot of build up around a mystery, only for the end to be lackluster. In these the journey itself was more riveting than where we ended up. What are some instances where the answer lived up to the hype?

    There’s no way I’m the first person to think of this, but it’s just crossing my mind right now - imagine if his story is complete fiction and some certifiable lunatic somewhere is absolutely raging over stolen valor.
