Answer
The situation described is an example of dramatic irony. In dramatic irony, the audience is aware of information that the characters in the story are not aware of, creating tension and a sense of anticipation. In this case, the audience knows that Scar is the one who killed Mufasa, while Simba mistakenly believes he is responsible for his father's death due to Scar's manipulations.
