BUT THEN...

used to describe a turning point in a situation. (For better or worse)

It only works when you say it dramatically, like some ESPN and Sports Analysts do.
It seemed the New England Patriots were going to win the super bowl, BUT THEN...Wes Welker dropped the ball.

It seemed The Heat were going to win the finals, BUT THEN...Dirk Nowvitzki scored 1,000 points.

It seemed that Yao Ming was going to be the last well known Asian in the NBA, BUT THEN...Jeremy Lin came along.

but then i ate an orange and it was k

This end of a sentence can be used to express that all turned out good in the end. (The orange is superior and can heal and stop all evil)

This phrase is based on a champion in the game "League of Legends". A Pirate called "Gangplank" has an ability where he eats an orange and dispells all CC effects from him (and heals in addition).
"I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee, but THEN i ate an orange and it was k!"

But then I took an arrow to the knee

the universal excuse for why you didn't do something. A.K.A the most common youtube comment.
Girl: Did you go to the store today.
Guy: I was going to, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

But then, where is the real me, after all is said and done? Oh, there is no real me. I guess that's it. I only exist inside of those people aware of my existence.

Don't quote this in therapy you filthy shinnie.
you know how Shinji Ikari once said: "Everything is simply a shape, a form, an identifier to let others recognize me as me! But then, what am I? Is this me? My true self? My fake self? What is it that I am? Nobody understands me!" yeah, I relate to that.
