Sub-trope of AlternateTimeline, AlternateUniverse and FlashSideways. Compare RashomonStyle (which depicts different perspectives on the same events), WhatIf (which examines an alternate timeline in a manner that doesn't necessarily overtake the main plot), MissedTheBus (which may examine the consequences of a character missing their bus in a similar fashion), or TwoLinesNoWaiting (if it only uses two timelines). Contrast GroundhogDayLoop (where time keeps repeating regardless of one's actions).

Oftentimes, there will be parallels between the variants; however, the main appeal is [[ForWantOfANail seeing how the event causes radical changes in the plot.]] This can be done for either dramatic or comedic purposes, with the latter generally using more ridiculous diverging points and/or subsequent changes.
