* ''Machinima/FreemansMind'' does this over two episodes. In Episode 2, 'Gordon' notices the helmet of his HEV suit has gone missing... [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63S3vacxI9c&t=8m39s He probably won't need it, right?]]
** In episode 13 he muses that he's a first generation [[Literature/TheTimeMachine Morlock]] since he's spending so much time underground. In Episode 48 he calls the soldiers surface dwellers as he guns them down.
* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' has a few.
** Nearby the beginning of [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/jailcartoon.html "Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon"]], Strong Sad says in a letter that he and Marzipan have a bakavla in the oven. At the end of the cartoon, Marzipan serves it to the other characters.
** At the beginning of [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/drivethru.html "Drive-Thru"]], Strong Bad is using an air compresser to launch a toy rocket to Europa, in the hopes that it'll return to Earth and bring him back some lobsters. At the end, sure enough, it falls back to Earth and cracks open, revealing a space lobster. The Drive-Thru Whale asks it to sever its leg, which it does, and the whale eats it (but not its severed leg, oddly) and flies into outer space. ...Yeah.
** In sbemail #38, titled [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail38.html helium]], we discover that Strong Mad's voice doesn't change at all when he sucks helium, to his annoyance. Exactly ''114 emails later'' in sbemail #152, [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail152.html isp]], we find out that [[spoiler:Strong Bad's internet connection is so slow because Strong Mad is siphoning his bandwidth through a garden hose. Apparently bandwidth acts like "super helium" and Strong Mad finally gets his helium voice]].
** The short "The Luau" begins with Homestar peeing behind Marzipan's gazebo. Later on in the short, when Homestar visits Strong Bad's party, and finds out that he can't get the wood to start on fire, Homestar then asks if Strong Bad got the wood from behind the gazebo, in which Strong Bad answers "Yes, why?". Homestar then explains "Well it all started when I drank 32 glasses of melonade..."
** In email #55, "cheat talk", Strong Bad waits patiently for Strong Mad (and The Cheat) to say the word "Douglas" (and jams his keyboard into Strong Sad's stomach to get him to say the word). In an EasterEgg for email #76, as Strong Bad tries to get other characters to say "Fhqwhgads", Strong Mad instead says, "DOUGLAS!", to which a surprised Strong Bad says, "Whoa! We've just had a breakthrough! You get a gold star."
** In short "Play Date", Homestar calls Bubs, who tells him that he's in federal prison. However he shows up in two scenes throughout the cartoon. In the EasterEgg, Homestar asks why he's not in prison, and he says he got time out for "snitchy behavior".
** In email #103, "haircut", Strong Bad, while coming up with various eyebrow-cuts for Strong Mad, randomly comes up with one looking like a character from ''Sweet Cuppin' Cakes'', a cartoon he invented in an earlier email, whom he immediately dubs "Ready for Primetime". Fast forward to the Decemberween in July ''Sweet Cuppin' Cakes'' short; at the very, very end, guess who makes an unexpected appearance?
** Near the beginning of the Strong Bad Email [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail189.html pet show]], Strong Bad catches Homestar trying to put relish on his boots ("Homestar's always trying to give me the old relish-foot.") Near the end of the cartoon, Strong Bad and the Cheat are disqualified from the pet show not because of the cheating they ''actually'' did, but for "flagrant use of relish-foot" (the cause of which is implied to be Homestar).
** In [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/hremail7.html hremail7]], Homestar offhandedly mentions he's contractually forbidden to even ''bathe'' in any liquid other than Melonade. At the end of the email, he walks off singing that he's going to take a bath in Melonade.
* In ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'' there are many of these. One starts in episode 14: Atem warns the man attacking Tea that he looks damn good in a tutu. A few years later we get episode 53. Kaiba is forced to admit it: he does look damn good in a tutu (we even get a card/photo to prove it).
* In ''WebVideo/StupidMarioBrothers'' "The Interactive Adventure", Luigi ended up [[ShoutOut inheriting a]] [[VideoGame/LuigisMansion mansion]]. In the first episode of Season 4 he sold it for a life supply of USB flash drives, [[spoiler:so he could never run out of memory]]. In Episode 53, [[spoiler:Mario returns after he gains his memory back, prompting Luigi to suggest a flash drive]].
* ''Literature/SkippysList'' has examples:
-->113. There is absolutely no need to emulate the people from ''[[Film/TheFullMonty Full Monty]]'' every time I hear the song "Hot Stuff".
-->131. No dancing in the turret. This especially applies in conjunction with rule #113.
* Website/FourChan had a few people do these--one example where someone mentioned something about ''Anime/CodeGeass'', then someone posted a Slowpoke picture saying he'll respond in two years. Two years later, he responded. He has continued to do so every year on the same date since then.
** A similar time travel post was done once.
* ''WebAnimation/ASDFMovie'':
** 2: "I like trains. ''[[[RunawayTrain is hit by train]]]''" Repeated, but then later: "Ha ha! Yes you do. ''[[[BaitAndSwitch glares]] [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou at]] [[SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou viewer]]]''" Next segment: "Hey! You know who's gay? Y-- ''[[[KilledMidSentence train]]]''."
** 2: Llama drives off cliff. 2 years later in 5: Llama finally hits ground.
* ''WebVideo/CodeMENT'' has a few of these:
** In episode 3, Milly says that Kallen is being "indicted" to the Student Council. Five episodes later...
--->'''Lelouch:''' Induction!
--->'''Milly''': Huh?
--->'''Lelouch:''' Induction--to formally admit to an organization or group. You said "indicted". Indictment--the formal accusation that a person has committed a crime.
--->'''Milly:''' But that was three months ago. And now all you did is prove that you didn't know both words at the time.
--->'''Lelouch:''' D'oh!
** And another:

--->'''Jeremiah:''' So that's where that thing went.
--->'''Guilford:''' Yeah, I lost it though.
--->'''Jeremiah:''' Dammit, that was a Rolex!

* The Phase novels in the Literature/WhateleyUniverse love the Chekhov's Gun tropes, so this pops up regularly. In the fourth Phase book, Phase considers the problems of a mutant-website-only web-spider. In the fifth book, Phase uses this as a trap. In the first Tennyo story, we learn something of her backstory, which is further fleshed out in a later Team Kimba adventure. Years later (real time), her backstory is weaponized against her in the seventh Phase story.
* Contesting ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater'' for longest one ever is ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'', with what actually happened to "poor Florida" from the first few episodes revealed at the end of ''Season 10'', almost a decade later.
* The WebAnimation/{{Animutation}} ''Irrational Exuberance'' starts by presenting a series of anthropomorphic fruit mascots under the slogan "Fruit Sells", such as "Rotten Apple Joe" ("Rotten Apple Computers"), "Applegrape Joe" ("Fruity Loom Incorporated"), and "Banana Joe" ("Banana Public Inc."). About halfway through, more fruit-themed mascots are presented, and the last one is..."fitness guru and short-shorts pioneer" Richard Simmons.

* Glasgow disappears at the beginning of the second Marvel arc of ''Roleplay/WeAreOurAdventuringAvatars'', and disappears from the plot for a while. When inside Brainiac's ship, the fate of the city becomes abundantly clear: It's part of his collection now.
* At the end of the first WebVideo/CharlieTheUnicorn video, Charlie wakes up to discover [[spoiler: the other two unicorns have stolen his kidney]]. At the end of the third video, released 3 1/2 years later, Charlie wakes up to discover [[spoiler:they've used his horn as a snowman's nose...and the snowman also has his kidney]].

* Used at the end of ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights''. At the beginning, WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic rounds up everyone at his house by tricking them into thinking that they won a car. At the end, however, everyone leaves after he finds yet another thing he wants their help in looking for. The very last scene?

-->'''WebVideo/JesuOtaku:''' I don't check my mail that often.
** Also in the TheStinger, where [[spoiler:Sci-Fi Guy is revealed to have survived...from his house being blown up 20 minutes in the movie]].
* ''Blog/WhatIf'' has a post discussing what would happen if [[http://what-if.xkcd.com/53/ Earth's oceans were drained]] through a portal to Mars. A RunningGag throughout the post is the suggestion that the Netherlands will somehow slowly take over the world. In [[http://what-if.xkcd.com/54/ the following post]], Randall discusses what would happen to Mars. The post concludes with the Netherlands colonizing Mars as well. [[http://what-if.xkcd.com/57/ A few more posts down the line]], we get to see what happens when gravity is misapplied to a mountain in space--it ends up impacting not Earth but Mars, AKA New Netherlands.
* Early on in ''[[WebVideo/TheCartoonMan Return of the Cartoon Man]]'', Peter asks Roy and Karen to "cut to the chase," and the scene immediately cuts to them chasing each other around the house. Much later, Roy interrupts Karen's exposition, looks at the camera, and says "Let's cut to the chase." The scene immediately cuts to the climactic chase sequence.

* ''Website/SFDebris'': during the ''Film/StarTrekVTheFinalFrontier'' review, Chuck refers to one character's field of holes in the ground as "dry ice mines", due to the smoke they emitted. About ten minutes later, another character is described thusly:

* The ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' WebAnimation/YouTubePoop ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNsWZsdADv8 Bobby's Sanity Meter is Low]]'' opens with an edit of an intro where the beer can Hank opens shoots out an arrow that sends Hank's head to the moon.

* LetsPlay/{{Raocow}} keeps meeting old and beloved bosses from his earlier videos in the newer hacks he plays, specially Black Plague (a hilariously ugly Big Boo) and the Key Boss (a broken leftover). In some cases, their comebacks happen over half a decade after their original appearances.

** In "Toys R' Us", Tyler kept telling customers that whatever they were looking for was in aisle 12B.

* Early in Season 10 of ''[[http://www.whatnottosing.com/library/camp/camp_shouldabeen.asp Camp Should-A-Been]]'', the counselors hold the entire semifinals in four minutes (parodying ''Series/AmericanIdol'''s new one-week semifinals format) and mention wanting to get back to the Rec Cabin to catch the Phillies game on Creator/{{ESPN}}-HD.

* In the 10000 views celebration of ''WebVideo/TheMostStupidDeathsInSuperMario64'', Clone 4 says, in relation to their fight on Hyrule Castle, that if Link notices anything, they'll just leave a note blaming Clone 2.
