This is trope shoehorning, as per Is This An Example?


* FiveStagesOfGrief: Following up with Tyrians' return to Salem to inform her of his failure to capture Ruby, he's seen talking to himself that Salem will forgive him ''(Denial)'', after hearing the news of his failure, Tyrian tries to point out that though he failed in his initial mission: he had poisoned Qrow and cites that he won't be a nuisance any longer ''(Bargaining)''. Salem unmoved by this, calmly notes her disappointment in him which reduces Tyrian to a quivering crying wreck ''(Depression)'' which draws the attention of a nearby Beowulf that tries to attack the Scorpion Faunus; only for to lash back and attack [[BerserkerTears while still crying his heart out]] ''(Anger)'', after pummeling at the dying Beowulf he starts to laugh insanely to himself ''(Acceptance)''.

That's not an armour-piercing question, that's a cliffhanger. We aren't allowed to hear Yang's answer because it sets up the bait-and-switch in Volume 5.


* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Yang is asked by her father whether or not she's going to go to her mother or her sister. Basically, Tai's asking whether finding her mother or sister is more important since she knows the general direction to find either one. Yang seems conflicted, with her segment ending before we hear her answer.

As per the "Is this an example?" thread, it was indeed a valid example of The Starscream. Restoring for now.

The trope description explicitly warns that it's misuse if it's not about the Big Bad and their underlings.


* TheStarscream: According to the scroll Illia had, Adam is planning to overthrow the current leadership of the White Fang in order to lead an attack on Haven.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Since Weiss does eventually returns to Atlas, this trope is no longer valid.


* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Weiss's segment ends with Klein pointing out that Winter is practically the only family she has left. If Weiss makes it across the border on time, it will be difficult for her to return to Atlas anyway.

one of my best. If she's telling me there's a threat in Mistral then I am not going to take that news lightly. She's been there for weeks, people are mobilising, sudden spikes in weapons and Dust trades. Someone is about to make a play and I do not trust Leo to stop them."''

Handicapped Badass shoehorn; there has to be an in-universe journey to overcome the handicap, but if anything is given that 'resets' or completely compensates without any disadvantages, then the trope does not apply. Both of them are only temporarily inconvenienced before being given replacements, and the eye mask is never shown to be a problem for Cinder. As a result, the trope is not in effect.


* HandicappedBadass: Two villainous versions:
** Despite losing an eye, her arm being horribly injured, and greatly weakened, Cinder is still able to fight the Grimm without help.
** While losing his stinger has hurt Tyrian tremendously, he can still use the tail to whip a Beowulf clean across a room and then savagely slash the creature to death.

Ironwood is shoehorned into this trope. What happened isn't his fault in the first place. The mistakes he did make in Vale are not this trope. Also, we don't yet know the story of Winter's departure from the home, and this episode doesn't tell us the reason, so we can't put this trope under this episode anyway.


* NeverMyFault: Both Ironwood and Jacques are guilty of this during their meeting.
** Jacques blames Ironwood for 'stealing' his daughter rather than considering it was his abusiveness that pushed her away.
** Ironwood blames Ozpin's refusal to listen to him for Beacon falling. While Ozpin's actions did lead to several critical errors, Ironwood seems to have completely disregarded any consequences that ''he'' caused by bringing his army and machines to Beacon where they were hacked and turned towards causing as much destruction as possible.
