Context Main / FinaleTitleDrop

Go To

1A subtrope of TitleDrop, where the title of a work is used as the last line spoken or near its end. Often, the title drop will finally explain why the episode, book, etc. is called that way to begin with. You can probably find these mainly in thriller works, where it makes you sit up and think (and adds a bit of drama to the ending). It's also common in plays that were written during the Victorian era.
2
3TheNamesake could be this, when revealed in the final moments.
4
5Compare to ThemeMusicWithholding. Not to be confused with CloseOnTitle. When it's not dropped in-universe but rather as the ''title'' of the finale, it's a TitleDropChapter.

12* ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'': It's not the overall series finale, but there is a title drop during the conclusion of its initial MythArc (which involves solving the OntologicalMystery of the origin of the Titans and the Three Walls) where its revealed that the series title (Shingeki no Kyojin[[note]]lit. Attacking Titan(s), since Japanese doesn't differentiate between singular and plural forms.

17* The final episode's title for ''Anime/DarkerThanBlack'' is "Does the Reaper Dream of Darkness Darker than Black?".

47'''Doc Brown:''' Nope. Already been there!

80[[/folder]]
81
82[[folder: Literature ]]
83* ''Literature/TheHeroesOfOlympus''. Hera/Juno does it while speaking with Jason about his destiny in the last chapter of ''The Lost Hero'', the first book of the series.
84* The last five words of the novel ''Literature/TheSilenceOfTheLambs'' are "the silence of the lambs," in reference to an intense conversation Clarice had earlier on with Lecter about witnessing lambs being slaughtered as a child.
85* ''The Last Night in Twisted River'', by Creator/JohnIrving, ends with the narrator considering how "his father must have felt, in the throes and dire circumstances of his last night in Twisted River."
86%%How?* Done in ''Literature/IAmLegend''.
87* "... I stood there, shaky on my feet, rocking from the vibrations of their roars, proud as a peacock, listening numbly as they chanted my name and cheered for me -- me... [[Literature/TheSagaOfDarrenShan Darren Shan]]... [[spoiler: ''The Vampire Prince!'']]" (what's under the spoiler is the title of the installment in the series that the quote comes from).
88* ''Literature/IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream'': The original novella, and most endings to the game, end the narrator transformed into a featureless blob incapable of harming themself, communicating, or even doing anything but [[AndIMustScream silently bemoaning their fate]].
89-->I am a great soft jelly thing. Smoothly rounded, with no mouth, with pulsing white holes filled by fog where my eyes used to be. Rubbery appendages that were once my arms; bulks rounding down into legless humps of soft slippery matter. I leave a moist trail when I move. Blotches of diseased, evil gray come and go on my surface, as though light is being beamed from within. Outwardly: dumbly, I shamble about, a thing that could never have been known as human, a thing whose shape is so alien a travesty that humanity becomes more obscene for the vague resemblance. Inwardly: alone. Here. Living under the land, under the sea, in the belly of AM, whom we created because our time was badly spent and we must have known unconsciously that he could do it better. At least the four of them are safe at last. AM will be all the madder for that. It makes me a little happier. And yet ... AM has won, simply ... he has taken his revenge ... I have no mouth. And I must scream.
90* The Avi book ''Literature/SometimesIThinkIHearMyName'' uses itself as the last line spoken.
91* The title of ''Literature/AllQuietOnTheWesternFront'' appears on the last page. [[ItWasHisSled It's the official report of combat status on the day the narrator dies.]]
92* Happens in the short novel/novella ''Literature/TheyShootHorsesDontThey'', where the title is used in the last chapter as an explanation for why the main character shot his depressed girlfriend who couldn't kill herself; he had to put her out of her misery. (Don't worry, not a spoiler, it's the first thing in the book.)
93* ''Literature/TheCryingOfLot49'' plays with this. The title is the final line of text, and deliberately makes absolutely no sense until then. It turns out that [[spoiler: the 49th lot (property) at an auction is maybe relevant to the mystery, and Oedipa is waiting for that lot to be cried (sold).]] The book ends just before the crying starts, because Creator/ThomasPynchon likes doing that sort of thing, so [[NoEnding we never find out what happens]].
94* ''Literature/TheOnesWhoWalkAwayFromOmelas'': After explaining how wonderful and utopian Omelas is the essay ends with the revelation of the city's dark secret, [[spoiler:that all that is possible because of the torment of one innocent child]], and that every citizen of Omelas has that secret revealed to them at maturity and they're given a choice: To accept this price and stay, or leave the city and never return. The final paragraph following the ones who walk away from Omelas.
95* ''Literature/TillWeHaveFaces''. The explanation for the title only comes near the end of the final chapter:
96-->I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer. Till that word can be dug out of us, why should they hear the babble that we think we mean? How can they meet us face to face till we have faces?
97* ''Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot'' by Creator/AlFranken has this as the last paragraph of the original final chapter (not counting the four extra chapters added to the paperback edition):
98-->And as the plane turned and banked its wings, a stream of light pierced the window, bathing my face in the orange glow of the sun setting over the American continent. And I thought to myself, "You know, Rush Limbaugh ''is'' a big fat idiot."
99* Creator/IsaacAsimov:
100** "Literature/TheBicentennialMan": The phrase "bicentennial man" shows up near the end, in a heartfelt recognition of Andrew's very ''[[BecomeARealBoy human]]'' life.
101--->With mankind watching, the World President said, "Fifty years ago, you were declared The Sesquicentennial Robot, Andrew." After a pause, and in a more solemn tone, he continued, "Today we declare you The Bicentennial Man, Mr. Martin."
102** "Literature/DoesABeeCare": The last line of the story compares a StarfishAlien to a bee, and humanity to a flower.
103--->Does a bee care what has happened to a flower when the bee has done and gone its way?
104** "Literature/TheFeelingOfPower": The story ends with Programmer Shuman declaring to himself that knowing [[UsefulNotes/{{Mathematics}} graphitics]] gave him a wonderful feeling of power.
105---> And it was amazing the feeling of power that gave him.
106** ''Literature/FoundationSeries'':
107*** "Literature/TheMerchantPrinces": At the end of the story, Mayor Mallow casually mentions the original title ("The Big and the Little") when explaining the ProxyWar between Foundation and the Empire, with Korell as the Empire's proxy. The Foundation thinks and is "little", while the Empire thinks and was "big" (still the largest GalacticSuperpower, but much smaller than it was).
108*** "Literature/TheGeneralFoundation": When this story was [[OrwellianRetcon revised]] for publication in ''Literature/FoundationAndEmpire'', the original title "Dead Hand" was [[TitleDrop reused]] for chapter 3, "The Dead Hand". The last line of Chapter 3 is General Riose summarizing the conflict; "a dead hand against a living will".
109** ''Literature/ItsSuchABeautifulDay'': The story occurs in [[TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture a future]] where everyone uses a [[PortalDoor Door to teleport from place-to-place]]. It ends with the [[TheShrink psychiatrist]] deciding to walk home, so that they can enjoy the [[TitleDrop beautiful]] weather.
110--->So he said in a soft voice, as his hand fell away from the board and his feet turned away from the Door, "You know, it's such a beautiful day that I think I'll walk."
111** The last word of "[[Literature/Liar1941 Liar!]]" is... exactly that. Dr Calvin uses it as an invective against the robot for [[{{Gaslighting}} trying to drive her crazy]].
112** "Literature/NotFinal": This story is about Prosser, a scientist working on creating [[DeflectorShields force fields]] capable of holding an atmosphere against the vacuum of space. He declares that it is scientifically impossible, and repeats "That's final!" several times. This story [[SubvertedTrope subverts]] the trope by having an epilogue where another character has managed to do exactly that, showing [[DramaticIrony how wrong Prosser is]], and making the title a response to Prosser's claim.
113* ''Literature/GeorgesSecretKeyToTheUniverse'':
114** The title of the talk George gives at the end is ''My Secret Key To The Universe''.
115** In ''George and the Ship of Time'', the sixth and final book in the series, "ship of time" is dropped by [[spoiler: Annie]] in the last paragraph. Downplayed as it was dropped earlier in the book as well and it is not the full title.
116* ''Literature/MegLangslowMysteries'': The last line of ''Toucan Keep a Secret'' uses the title as the punchline of a joke.
117* ''Literature/VainqueurTheDragon'': The second chapter, [[https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/26534/vainqueur-the-dragon/chapter/391816/2-vv "V&V"]], the name of the guild that's formed at the chapter's end, named for the two principal characters, Victor and Vainqueur.

124-->'''Marisa:''' Vámonos, que aquí ya no hay quien viva.[[labelnote:Translation]]Let's go, nobody can live here anymore.[[/labelnote]]
125* The first half of Season 3 of ''Series/OddSquad'' ended with the Big O, Opal, Oswald, Orla, Omar, and [[spoiler: Olizabeth]] shouting “For Odd Squad!” in unison. Downplayed due to it not being the series finale.
126** The Season 1 finale also had Olive, Otto, Ms. O, Oscar and the other Precinct 13579 agents shout "For Odd Squad!" just before heading into battle against the various creatures invading their Headquarters. Like with the aforementioned example, it's downplayed since it's not the series finale.
127* ''Series/OrphanBlack'' is revealed to be the title of Helena's memoir in the series finale.
128* ''Series/PrivatePractice'' has this in the final episode in the form of Violet's book title.
129* ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'': Close to the end of the last episode...
130-->'''Q:''' It's time to put an end to your ''trek'' through the ''star''s.
131[[/folder]]
132
133[[folder: Music]]
134* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poKI_MY0Bkw "74"]], by Creator/ItokiHana and Creator/TobyFox: Despite its title, this song's ArcNumber is actually 7'''3'''. 73 months the princess has been locked in her tower, 73 floors filled with traps and monsters, 73 heroes who've tried and failed to save her. The number 74 comes up exactly once, ending the song [[spoiler:after she's revealed ''why'' they all failed -- it's ''her'' tower, they're ''her'' traps and monsters, and she doesn't actually want to be rescued. "The door swings open and my / Breath of fire fills the / Seventy-four."]]
135* "No End" by Sandy Denny - ''But the painter he just smiled / said 'I'll see you in a while' / This one has No End''
136* "Up The Junction" by Music/{{Squeeze|Band}} - ''And so it's my assumption / that I'm really up the junction''
137* "Virginia Plain" by Music/RoxyMusic - ''What's her name? / Virginia Plain''
138* ''Mercury Falling'' by Music/{{Sting}} combines this with BookEnds, in that the first and last words on the album are "Mercury falling."

140--> "The sun sets forever over Blackwater Park."
141* Music/{{BTS}}' ''Music/{{Wings|BTSAlbum}}'' has its AlbumTitleDrop given repeatedly in English at the end of "Interlude: Wings", the last track on the standard edition of the album.
142--> "Spread spread spread my '''wings'''\
143Spread spread spread my '''wings'''\
144'''Wings''' are made to fly fly fly\
145Fly fly fly\
146If my '''wings''' could fly"
147[[/folder]]
148
149[[folder: Theatre ]]
150* In ''Theatre/TheImportanceOfBeingEarnest'', the title drop is the final line of the play. Lady Bracknell reproaches Jack, who has just become engaged to the woman he loves, for displaying signs of levity, and he assures her that he now understands as never before "the vital importance of being earnest".
151-->'''Jack Worthing''': On the contrary, Aunt Augusta, I've now realised for the first time in my life the vital Importance of Being Earnest.
152* "You're a good man, [[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} Charlie Brown]]." Not only the first song, but the last line of the play (spoken by Lucy, of all people).

154[[/folder]]
155
156[[folder: Video Games ]]

158* ''VideoGame/BattleForWesnoth'':
159** The title of ''Secrets of the Ancient'' campaign refers to how lich-lords in the past could live forever which have became forbidden knowledge. By the end of the campaign, the protagonist has figured it out and wrote it in a journal so others can learn it. The epilogue of the campaign is the final pages of said journal and it has this to say:
160--->''"Tath, in particular, is home to many wizards. It is enough for one of them to be eager to learn the secrets of the ancients."''
161** ''The Rise of Wesnoth'' ends with the narrator saying that the story that has been told and will be remembered is called "the Rise of Wesnoth".
162* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'': The final spellcards of ''VideoGame/TouhouFuujinrokuMountainOfFaith'' and ''VideoGame/TouhouHisoutenScarletWeatherRhapsody'' share their names with the English half of their game's title. Similarly, ''VideoGame/TouhouShinreibyouTenDesires''' final card includes the Japanese portion of the title in its name. ''VideoGame/DoubleSpoilerTouhouBunkachou'' just has a regular TitleDrop in the last bit of dialogue.
163* ''VideoGame/{{OFF}}'' has this as the last text before the credits in the normal ending:
164-->The switch is now on OFF
165* Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog gets in ''two'' title drops during the final, minute-long cutscene of ''VideoGame/SonicHeroes'', one of which is the very last line of dialogue in the game. The subtitles even render them in all upper case to make them even more obvious.
166-->'''[[spoiler:Neo Metal Sonic]]''': It's no use... but why can't I defeat you?\
167'''Sonic''': Because... we're Sonic Heroes!\
168[''later'']\
169'''Sonic''': Alright! [[AndTheAdventureContinues Our next adventure awaits us]], so there's no time to waste! Yeah! We're Sonic Heroes!

172** ''VideoGame/EternalSeniaHydrangeaAfterTheRain'': Dropped both exactly, and by implication:
173*** The subtitle, "Hydragea After The Rain", is the [[TitleDropChapter title of the last chapter]], before the epilogue, seen in the "The Story So Far menu".
174*** In the final chapter before the epilogue, when Magaleta compares Senia to such hydrageas:
175---> You are just like the star in the night sky, the hydrangea that blooms in the rainy spring...\
176[[spoiler:Dainty, fragile]]\
177[[spoiler:I want to shield you from every terrible thing in this world]]\

180just like the hydrangea.
181* ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsIII'': The phrase "dark soul" comes up multiple times in ''The Ringed City'', the last DLC, which is intended as the GrandFinale of the series. Lapp, a.k.a [[spoiler: Patches]] even says "A fine dark soul to you" during your last encounter with him, as though he's telling the player goodbye, and the item you get for beating the final boss is called "The Dark Soul of Man".
182* ''VideoGame/TheLogomancer'': At the very end of the GoldenEnding, Ardus states that the working title of his new novel is "The Logomancer". Given that his new novel is a PlotParallel to the game itself, this is fitting.
183* The sequel to ''VideoGame/OsuTatakaeOuendan'' has an epic TitleScream as the two cheer squads reconcile their differences and cheer hard enough to [[spoiler: ''reignite the dying sun'']]:
184-->'''Leaders:''' OSU!\
185'''Other members:''' TATAKAE!\
186'''[[BackForTheFinale Everyone they helped]]:''' '''OUENDAAAAN!!'''
187* ''VideoGame/DarkestDungeonII'': While the first game drops a TitleDrop in the introductary cutscene, the second game has one in the last cutscene [[spoiler:after destroying the [[EnemyWithout Body of Work]] and [[AWorldHalfFull saving the world]]]], complete with Wayne June [[spoiler:[[EvilSoundsDeep deepening his tone to that of the Ancestor]]]]:
188-->''We slip and stumble, we fail and we falter. And yet, in each of us, a hopeful light, holding fast against the hellish shadows that gather between our good intentions. And in each of us, the limitless emptiness... of a Darkest Dungeon.''
189* The epilogue of ''VideoGame/MasterDetectiveArchivesRainCode'' is titled "RAIN CODE".
190[[/folder]]
191
192[[folder: Visual Novels ]]
193* The final chapter of ''VisualNovel/RoseGunsDays'' has the series' title with the Final Season's cover splashing on the screen (the "chapter change" animation also has several page flips instead of one normally). Just before it appears, Rose also declares "the final chapter of these days of roses and guns", which is the closest thing to a TitleDrop the dialogues can have.
194[[/folder]]
195
196[[folder: Webcomics ]]
197* ''Webcomic/DinosaurComics'': {{Conversed|Trope}} in [[http://www.qwantz.com/index.php?comic=2009 #2009]], where T-rex and his friends invent new last lines for famous novels that would be examples of this trope.
198-->'''T-rex:''' In the end, I guess we really had crossed... The Bridges of Madison County.
199* ''Webcomic/BetterDays'': In [[http://www.jaynaylor.com/betterdays/archives/2009/05/chapter-25-bett-9.html the end]], the last spoken words are a title drop:
200-->'''Fisk:''' With all I've been through, the future can only hold better days.
201* ''Webcomic/LeftoverSoup'' ends with Jamie offering to teach cooking to his new friend.
202-->'''Jamie:''' I think I've got some leftovers at home [...]. Let's go see what we can turn them into.
203[[/folder]]
204
205[[folder: Western Animation ]]
206* ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' titled one episode "Last Last One Forever and Ever", and one of the last lines of that episode is Carl commenting that Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad truly were an Aqua Teen Hunger Force. The creators believed this would be the show's final episode, but then the series was renewed. The hilarious part is that even so late into the show's run, the title still makes just as little sense as it always has.
207** The [[spoiler:second to]] last episode of the final season had Master Shake shouting the series's [[NewSeasonNewName current title]] as he's [[spoiler:devoured by clams]].
208-->'''Shake:''' AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE FOREVER!
209* The final episode of ''WesternAnimation/WordGirl'' had the narrator’s last lines of “Join us next time for another amazing, colossal adventure of... [=WordGirl=]!”
