'''What We've Done:'''

* There seems to be broad agreement that this ''is'' a trope and it ''isn't'' already covered.
* We've collected some fairly clear examples.

'''What Needs to Be Done:'''

* NeedsABetterDescription: The current description '''sucks!'''  I've tried re-writing it, but it still sounds like rubbish.  I know what I ''want'' it to mean, and I can give you lots of examples, but putting a definition into words seems to be beyond me.  Can anyone give me a hand here???
* NeedsABetterName: We still need to choose a name.  I'll make a crowner for that.
* RunningGagged: Although we seem to agree that this is different from RunningGagged, there ''is'' overlap between the two tropes.  For example, the incident from ''{{Film/Charade}}'' could qualify as both.  What shall we do about this?  Shall we say that it's an example of ''both'' tropes?  Or shall we request that people list it as one or the other?  Personally I think ''this'' should be the default trope for such incidents.  But that's because I think this is a way more interesting trope than RunningGagged.
