What are the things you were certain you have forgotten and will never remember yet a few seconds later your brain spits out the right info?

For example names of people and places in the past that you were sure there’s no way you’ll recall and yet your brain does!

Earlier a friend asked me the name of Tom Cruise’s leading lady in the film The Firm and could have sworn I have no idea whatsoever. Not even a wild guess. Though I’ve seen her in maybe two other films I never bothered to remember her name.

For sure I read the name long ago, otherwise how else would I blurt out Jeanne Triplehorn a few seconds after I said there’s no chance I would know?

Apparently my brain did.
