12-->-- '''[[HarmlessVillain The Drab Lord,]]''' ''Webcomic/{{Captain SNES}}'' [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/06/26/153-the-drab-lord-appears/ episode 153]]
13
14A [[EvilLaugh villainous laugh]] so remarkably stupid-sounding that, instead of striking fear into the hearts of those who hear it, it causes bouts of [[{{Narm}} uncontrollable sniggering]]. A NotSoHarmlessVillain may do this on purpose to deflect suspicion. A MinionWithAnFInEvil is likely to do it by accident. The most pitiful form of the Un-evil Laugh is ReadingTheStageDirectionsOutLoud. In other cases, if there's no lampshade hanging, it may be hard to tell if the writers or actors meant for the laugh to be genuinely menacing and just missed the mark, but only examples that appear to be deliberate on the creators' part should be listed.
15
16Contrast {{Giggling Villain}}s, whose seemingly unimpressive laughs only make them ''creepier''. Also contrast AnnoyingLaugh, though it can sometimes coincide. Compare LaughWithMe in which the villain demands that someone else laugh as well.

19!!Example:
20[[foldercontrol]]
21
22[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
23* Depending on the dub. Light Yagami of ''Manga/DeathNote''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7ijFmLcck0 Some are better than others]].
24* The villain's laugh in the Creator/LeijiMatsumoto parody episode of ''Anime/ExcelSaga'' is notably and consistently thick and forced-sounding. [[TooLongDidntDub At least, it is in the original Japanese]].
25* The Japanese version of ''Anime/YuGiOh'' gives us Insector Haga's (dubbed as Weevil Underwood) "hyohyohyohyo!". Given the character, its likely he was at least ''trying'' to be sinister.
26* ''Manga/SgtFrog'' KEEERO KERO-KERO-KERO-KERO!
27* ''Manga/BoboboboBobobo'' tor..pedotorpedotorpedotorpedotorpedotorpedo!
28* Considering how many funny laughs there are in ''Manga/OnePiece'', villainous examples are there, at least in the audience's ears as they seldom get pointed out at all. Pica's laugh (which barely even ''sounds'' like one), however, is so ridiculous that [[NotSoStoic not even Zoro]] could just stand by and ignore it. The fact the man [[VocalDissonance has a voice like a squeaky toy]] doesn't help, either.
29-->'''Pica, now mountain-sized:''' Pika-pika-pikyararara! Now, can you get away from my atta-?\
30'''Zoro:''' ''Was that how you laugh!?''\
31'''Pica:''' What!? So what if that's how I laugh?\
32'''Zoro:''' I'm surprised because it sounded so stupid!\
33'''Pica:''' ''EEH!?''
34* The almost dramatic end of episode 12 of ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'' is humorously undermined when Corset's EvilLaugh runs past the "to be continued" card and starts turning into a hacking cough.
35* ''Manga/AyakashiTriangle'': [[spoiler:Mei Hirasaka]]'s EvilDoppelganger keeps the original's silly SignatureLaugh, though rather than being disarming it adds to her UncannyValleyGirl effect.
36* Boingo in ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders'' has an evil laugh that sounds more like a mixture of choking and hiccups, particularly evident in the anime adaptation.
37[[/folder]]
38
39[[folder:Comic Books]]
40* In an unintentional example of this trope, ComicBook/ChickTracts represent laughter in writing as '''HAW HAW HAW'''.
41* Originally, The [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Batman]] criminal known as The Penguin was given an effeminate giggle.
42* ''ComicBook/{{Empowered}}'': Minor supervillainess Hardpoint may or may not be subject to sexist discrimination by her male peers like she claims, but they [[JerkassHasAPoint at least have a point]] that her villainous laugh ("hyuk hyuk hyuk ''snort''!") is unlikely to strike fear into anyone's heart.
43[[/folder]]
44
45[[folder:Fan Works]]
46* ''Fanfic/ADivineRomanticComedy'': Charlie certainly ''attempts'' an EvilLaugh for her plans regarding her father's second date with Camila, but as Vaggie notes, the effort comes off as more adorable than menacing.
47* ''FanFic/LeaveForMendeleiev'': After learning about the hat designing contest, [[RichBitch Chloé]] schemes about using it to humiliate her favorite bullying target Marinette and starts sniggering to herself... but stops short when she chokes on her own spittle.
48* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7676709/2/Shinderella Shinderella]]'' (basically ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' meets ''{{Literature/Cinderella}}'' meets QuestionableCasting) features Matou Sakura attempting to laugh wickedly as one of the evil stepsisters. The stage directions note that she "actually sounds like someone who is PLAYING IN A SUNLIT FIELD with a group of KITTENS."
49[[/folder]]
50
51[[folder:Film -- Animated]]
52* Prince John from ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973'', with his highly affected and distinct "[[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud Ah-HA! Ah-HA!]]"
53[[/folder]]
54
55[[folder:Film -- Live-Action]]
56* In ''Film/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows Part 2'', Voldemort gloats over Harry's DisneyDeath with a bizarre [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UjuYtgMDIg "Eh-heh-heh!"]] -- since he's going through an extended VillainousBreakdown, it's likely totally intentional on the actor's part.
57* Evil Ed from ''Film/FrightNight1985'' has a voice crackling with pre-puberty and a laugh like a donkey on inhalants. As a vampire, the laugh gets more reverb, but it's still the same goofy laugh.
58* ''Film/AustinPowers'':
59** In the first movie, a big group EvilLaugh by Dr. Evil and his organization eventually peters out and becomes distinctly un-evil.
60** Intentionally done in ''Austin Powers in Goldmember'', in which Scott Evil's laugh sounds more like a mix between screaming and crying, is incredibly hilarious, and gets him reprimanded by Dr. Evil for doing it wrong. By the end, though, he's learned how to have an effective laugh.
61* Hedley Lamarr in ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' makes the mistake of starting an EvilLaugh while sucking on a candy, and almost chokes on it before spitting it out.
62* Dr. Flemyng, from ''Film/TheLostSkeletonOfCadavra''. The Skeleton itself has a far more traditional EvilLaugh.
63* From ''Film/PrinceOfSpace'', we have the Phantom's drawn-out, twangy chortle, which sounds like an unholy merger of [[Series/Batman1966 Burgess Meredith as the Penguin]] and a car with a bad starter motor. Haaaa-haaaa-haaaa-haaa-haaa-haaa-haaa-haa-haa-haa-haa-haaaa.
64* Tex Richman in ''Film/TheMuppets2011'' and his "maniacal laugh, maniacal laugh, maniacal laugh!" ([[UnsoundEffect He's not laughing. He's literally saying that]]). Lampshaded by one of his henchmen, who is proud of his own very EvilLaugh.
65* Thurman in ''Film/DinnerForSchmucks'' has a bizarre one which sounds more like a kettle whistling than laughter.
66[[/folder]]
67
68[[folder:Literature]]
69* In one of the ''Literature/ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents'' books, [[BigBad Count Olaf]] has begun practicing a bizarre evil laugh that involves interjecting random words that [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal start with the same letter]] as whatever onomatopoeia for laughter he happens to be using. He stops doing this in the next book in favor of a more conventional evil laugh, which is mentioned to be something of a relief to the Baudelaires.
70** Vice-Principle Nero in ''The Austre Academy'' is described having a very unrealistic laugh, Lemony Snicket going into detail about how his laughs are said as "te-he-he" is spelled.
71* ''Literature/JohannesCabal'': One villainous {{eunuch|sAreEvil}} wizard has a laugh "like a hyaena in a helium-rich atmosphere". Johannes is unimpressed, despite the wizard's power.
72[[/folder]]
73
74[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
75* Raj in ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'', when contemplating Sheldon's humiliation at the hands of Leslie Winkle, comes out with one of the most unconvincing "evil laughs" ever committed to sitcom.
76* Prince Edmund in the first series of ''Series/{{Blackadder}}'' has a slow, thin and high-pitched "Hah hah hah" that makes him sound like an utter wimp, which he emits when he plots to seize power or inflict misfortune on someone.
77* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''. The Nerd Trio do this to convince a demon that they're supervillains. As the script says, "It needs some work."
78* Phoebe and Joey from ''Series/{{Friends}}'' attempted to laugh evilly after concocting a scheme to bring Ross and Rachel back together. Unfortunately, Joey kills it.
79* Dara O Briain, the host of ''Series/MockTheWeek'', showed one off while recounting how he was mistaken for a burglar at Creator/EdByrne's house.
80-->''I looked like a gentleman burglar, right--like I'd left a note saying "[[ClassyCatBurglar The Cat]] has visited you! Hmnahahahahaaa!"''
81* ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus'': The Spanish Inquisition's "Diabolical Laughter", rapidly followed by [[BadBadActing "Diabolical]] [[MilkingTheGiantCow Acting"]].
82* The Count from ''Series/SesameStreet''. "''Ah-ah-ah.''" He did have a more sinister one when he started out, though.
83[[/folder]]
84
85[[folder:Radio]]
86* ''Radio/BleakExpectations:'' The Evil Laugh is an essential part of being evil. Mr. Benevolent's got a sort of evil chuckle. Pippa Bin has a truly impressive evil laugh, complete with echo. Harry Biscuit's is, by his own admission, terrible, because he's bad at being evil. At least, the first time around. The ''second'' time, however, when he really is evil, he gets it right.
87* ''Series/DeadRingers:'' Theresa May tries to gloatingly laugh at Boris Johnson's misfortune, but she's so incapable of experiencing joy it comes out as a sort of nervous cough. When she tries again, she can't even manage ''that''.
88[[/folder]]
89
90[[folder:Stand-Up Comedy]]
91* [[Creator/JeffDunham Achmed, the Dead Terrorist]] has a less-than-menacing evil laugh, which is usually used to punctuate a [[CrossesTheLineTwice particularly offensive joke]]. By contrast, one of the other puppets, the mean, grouchy old man Walter, has a laugh that scares ''him''.
92[[/folder]]
93
94[[folder:Video Games]]
95* In ''VideoGame/TheClueFinders4thGradeAdventuresThePuzzleOfThePyramid'', Sir Alistair Loveless starts off with a proper EvilLaugh at one point -- but then he starts coughing uncontrollably when he accidentally swallows his mint during said laugh.
96* In ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsII'', when the surviving members of Organization XIII first appear to the main character, one can clearly hear [[MinionWithAnFInEvil Demyx]]'s rather uninspired titter among the collection of otherwise decent {{Evil Laugh}}s.
97** In ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsBirthBySleep'' (or at least the Japanese version), Vanitas' laugh is even more ridiculous.
98* Alfred Ashford's [[GigglingVillain interesting]] laugh in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilCodeVeronica''.
99* ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'' parodies this in the outtakes with Gol. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YacDrcwDsVo "SICKLY. Evil laugh."]]
100* In ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'', Destroyman's laugh is a pretty good example, and given the setting probably ''intentional.''
101* Brady Culture from the adventure game ''[[VideoGame/SamAndMaxFreelancePolice Sam & Max: Culture Shock]]'' has a few false starts with his evil laugh before getting it down pat.
102* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
103** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', Heidegger and Scarlet are nicknamed "Gyaha" and "Kyaha" by Cait Sith. Hard to be worried when they're around.
104** "WUH HUH HUH HUH!!" MonsterClown he may be, but ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'''s Kefka lacks something in the terrifying laugh department. That was intentional, however, to showcase Kefka as a HarmlessVillain and a DirtyCoward. [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Then comes the second half of the game...]]
105** Ultros/Orthros from ''VI''. Even though it's only spelled out, there's something about his affected "Uwee hee hee!" that fails to inspire much in the way of fear.
106** Borghen from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyII'' either has ''the'' least evil laugh in the series, or else he's packing one mean turkey call.
107* ''VideoGame/SpiderManMilesMorales'': Before going away to Europe, Peter sets up a series of holographic training simulations for Miles to go through in order to hone his skills. The final one is a holographic boss fight against the Vulture, with Peter providing the Vulture's voice. He lets out an evil laugh... only to break out coughing in the middle of it before saying that evil laughs are harder to pull off than he was expecting.
108* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'', The Spy: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvLj2deytB8 "HON HON HON *snort* HON HON HON"]]
109** Pretty much every class has a laugh that is either supremely annoying or lacking in the intimidation department. Examples include the Scout's fratboy-like chuckles, the Engie's coughing, the Soldier running ''completely'' out of breath laughing, and the Medic occasionally sounding [[NoblewomansLaugh like an old lady]]. The Heavy generally has an impressively bellowing laugh, but it tends to devolve into a somewhat silly "''D'ohohoho!''"
110*** [[http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/9/9a/Demoman_laughlong01.wav?t=20110303112440 The Demoman]] [[http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/c/c4/Demoman_laughlong02.wav?t=20110303112439 lives]] [[http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/6/6a/Demoman_laughevil05.wav?t=20110303112438 this trope.]] Then again, he's [[DrunkenMaster drunk off his ass]], which would probably screw with ''anyone'''s EvilLaugh.
111* Most of the LaughablyEvil villains of the ''VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeon'' games, such as "Chaw-haw-haw!", "Whoa-ho-ho!", and "Heh heh heh!" The more sinister villains will have laughs like "Ooh hoo hoo hoo!", but the most terrifying laugh from those villains would be [[spoiler:"[=MuhehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehahahahahahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAAHAAHAA!!!"=]]]
112* Scorn, the stage 1 boss from ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheRound'' has a hilariously girlish cackle that he can't resist letting fly every so often.
113* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ftc_Pbhb3IE Goldman]] in ''VideoGame/HouseOfTheDead 2'' may have the best worst evil laugh ever.
114-->''"[[DullSurprise Hm, hm, hm]]."''
115* In ''VideoGame/MortalKombat4'', Jarek gives a weird, muffled laugh that sounds more like humming in his and Jax's endings.
116* Zarok in ''VideoGame/MediEvilResurrection'' has such a laugh, often sounding rather silly and nana-ish, not to mention that it tends to get interrupted by him having a coughing fit. He actually [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] it in the same cutscene. [[spoiler:He finally gets it right in the end after his defeat in the final battle.]]
117-->'''Zarok:''' "I really need to work on that mocking laugh..."
118* ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'': Lancer's signature "Ho ho ho!" laugh, which only emphasizes just how incompetent he is as a villain and serves to only make him more comical and endearing. Lampshaded at one point in Chapter 1 by Susie:
119-->'''Lancer:''' Ho ho ho!!! Are you ready to be...
120-->'''Susie:''' Stop. Stop talking. "Ho ho ho"? What is that. Why are you saying that.
121-->'''Lancer:''' "Ho ho ho"? It's my evil laugh! Scary, right!?
122-->'''Susie:''' You sound like baby SantaClaus.
123* Squid, the evil supercomputer from ''VideoGame/WillYouSnail'', tends to get voice cracks whenever he laughs, and while he has some exceptions, his evil laughter usually tends to sound too pitchy and goofy to truly come off as imposing. Though that sometimes still works in his favor and makes him sound [[GigglingVillain creepier]].
124* ''VideoGame/BulletStorm'': General Serano's laugh when he tricks Grey into setting the timer for the [[DepopulationBomb DNA]] [[WorldWreckingWave bomb]] is an oafish-sounding "Hu hu hu hu!", which is not at all what you'd expect from a loudmouthed, Texarkanne-accented HateSink of a soldier who still retains his DrillSergeantNasty tendencies several ranks above Sergeant.
125[[/folder]]
126
127[[folder:Webcomics]]
128* In ''Webcomic/{{Narbonic}}'', Helen Beta Narbon has a proper evil laugh... which lasts for about three seconds before devolving into giggles, titters, and snorts.
129* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
130** {{Defied|Trope}} by the skeletal BigBad Xykon: he declines to join his minions in an EvilLaugh because he hasn't been able to muster up a good one since his transformation into a [[OurLichesAreDifferent lich]] robbed him of his lungs.
131** The vampire [[spoiler:possessing Gontor]] tries for an evil laugh but can only manage an embarrassing "''Bwee hee hee hee hee hee!''". His patron GodOfEvil gripes about his poor grasp of "basic villain stuff" on the next page.
132* ''Webcomic/{{Spinnerette}}'''s [[MadScientist Doctor Universe]] commented that he often wished his laugh was more maniacal.
133[[/folder]]
134
135[[folder:Web Original]]
136* In ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog'', Dr. Horrible's laugh is like this at first, practicing in front of his webcam with little success (he has a vocal coach). Later on, [[NotSoHarmlessVillain after he decides to take things up a notch]], he finally pulls it off, striking fear into everyone present.
137* Wayne the goblin in ''Creator/LegendaryFrog'''s "One Ring to Rule them All" series had this when applying for the evil henchman position.
138* LetsPlay/ChuggaaConroy's take on evil laughter in Pokemon Emerald? "U. F U F U F U F U F U."
139* Creator/DougWalker's impersonation of Dr. Smith from ''Series/LostInSpace'' has a distinctly non-threatening laugh.
140* The only time where Rex Velvet's video unmistakably "blinks" from being a professed villain is when the camera changes focus as he awkwardly coughs in his closing evil laugh.
141* WebVideo/{{ProZD}}:
142** He has done [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myKPSHPLUBo several]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxULeLzgqxI skits]] about villains who lack the requisite villain laugh, much to their consternation. In the second of those linked skits, the villain is also secretly furious that his minion has a far better EvilLaugh.
143** Inverted in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vsuC5GkNis A man who's really nice, but has a supervillain laugh]] in which a NiceGuy has an EvilLaugh.
144* ''WebAnimation/EpithetErased'':
145** Sylvie's diabolical laugh during his brief period working with Mera trails off into what [[FunWithSubtitles the subtitles call "stupid clown laughter"]]. Even Mera can't pretend to be impressed.
146** Inverted with Rick Shades, whose maniacal cackle is just one of many ways in which he unintentionally comes across as evil. He's not, he's a good person who just has NoSocialSkills to such a degree he could convert putting in an order at KFC into jail time by mistake.
147[[/folder]]
148
149[[folder:Western Animation]]
150* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'': Beautiful Gorgeous' form of a villainous laugh consists of her giggling, chortling, horrible laughter while making weird and absurd faces with every chuckle.
151-->'''Sheen''': That laugh could get annoying.
152* {{Ma|dScientist}}n[[ChildProdigy dark]] in ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bjqbaybF3A HA haha! HA haha! HA haha haha!]]
153* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible''
154** Señor Senior, Junior's laugh (despite his father's best efforts to teach him a proper EvilLaugh).
155** Ron Stoppable gets turned evil in one episode and Shego is noticeably in pain from hearing his "evil laugh" because it's so terrible. Oddly enough, though, he's actually [[SuperpoweredEvilSide quite dangerous and competent]] in all other evil areas.
156* ''WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian''.
157** The haphazard chortling of Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy.
158** Dave's evil ex-girlfriend, Princess Irmaplotz, also botched the evil laugh. '''''BWO HO HO HO HO!!!''''' Never goes without being {{lampshade|Hanging}}d.
159* ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'': In "Presto Tina-O", Tina attempted to do an evil laugh while plotting to prank Jimmy Jr., but she's not very good at it.
160-->'''Louise''': Do you have something caught in your throat?
161-->'''Tina''': That was my evil laugh, I also have something caught in my throat.
162* The Antichrist in the Rapture episode of ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad.''
163* In ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'', Jack Spicer's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZF8ucW90MI "evil" laugh starts out decent, but ends up being rather pitiful]], as he tries too hard.
164* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'' episode "Flower Power". Austin, playing the villain [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast The Gloommeister]], performs his EvilLaugh. When asked why he laughs like that, he says that it sounds better than his normal one, and then demonstrates--with a giggle-snort that would have made [[Series/FamilyMatters Steve Urkel]] proud.
165* During his stint as a car salesman in ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' episode "Diatribe of a Mad Housewife," Homer attempted to do his own [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMchOpvbUbI evil laugh]] on what he thought were some unsuspecting customers. He didn't exactly miss any notes, but without any dramatic echo, music, or shadows, it came across as more awkward and silly than outright menacing.
166* In an early Halloween episode of ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'', Hank tries to get Bobby into character with his new devil costume by teaching him the proper evil laugh. Hank's own laugh is pathetic enough, but Bobby's bizarre, huffing chuckle is even worse. Hank's response when asked if it sounds evil enough? "Uh, it was... disturbing!"
167* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' when Max attempts and fails at evil laughs for a few episodes, but he manages to do a real one later on.
168* ''WesternAnimation/DocMcStuffins''
169** In "Boo-Hoo to You!," when Doc [=McStuffins's=] dad tries for an EvilLaugh, it comes out really weak and Doc tells him that he might want to keep trying on it.
170** In "Toy Hospital: Welcome to [=McStuffinsville=]," the half-lion/half-bunny toy Stanley gives a sort of weird barking/coughing laugh when trying for an evil laugh.
171-->'''Tiggley''': What was that?
172-->'''Stanley''': It's my laugh of evil.
173-->'''Tiggley''': Yeah, needs some work.
174* Downplayed by Queen Chrysalis in ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', who does cackle in a stereotypically evil way more than once. However, she also has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOLT_GPGi_I bubbly giggle]], to the point where it's been parodied in [[https://www.deviantart.com/mickeymonster/art/The-Evil-Villain-Laugh-325037716 fan-comics]].
175* Peridot in ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' has a laugh that's more of a dorky giggle than anything else. It fits in rather nicely with her rather nonthreatening... everything else.
176-->'''Peridot:''' I could call [Garnet]... Lots of things. I could call her ''(snrk)'' two things! ''Two'' clods! Ahahahaha! Walking around like she's... ''One'' clod! Nyeheheheheh!
177* Lampshaded in ''WesternAnimation/TrippingTheRift'' where Darph Bobo is aware of his unevil laugh and has been practicing. One episode he actually ''asks Chode and the crew how it's coming along'', and they tell him it "needs work and sounds forced".
178* ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBros'': a DiscussedTrope in "[[Recap/TheVentureBrosS7E6TheBellicoseProxy The Bellicose Proxy]]". The Monarch and Henchman 21 are trying to coach HarmlessVillain Augustus St Cloud into stepping up his supervillain game, which naturally includes practicing his EvilLaugh. The best St Cloud can do is an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PDz3LzFcSo awkward wheezing chuckle]] with a bizarre groan at the end, which 21 considers "scary, but in like, that gross way."
