1 | '''Basic Trope''': There is a situation which, when described, sounds so strange that it's close to being a NoodleIncident, but when properly described it ends up making logical sense. |
2 | * '''Straight''': In ''Troper Heroes'', [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower Bob]] beat [[BigBad General Evulz]] with [[BlowYouAway the ability to create wind]] and a specially written document. That's it. As it turned out, the ink was poison, so Bob burned the paper and directed a breeze at Evulz. |
3 | * '''Exaggerated''': The defeat of Evulz [[NoodleImplements involved puppies, a bag of nuts, and Bob's ability to create wind,]] and the falling apart of the fortress which resulted in a giant egg that hatched into a dragon emerging from the rubble after. Evulz is allergic to nuts, [[KickTheDog the puppies were a distraction]]. During the attack of allergy after, Evulz accidentally hit the collapse switch, causing a magic gem to get knocked over and hit an egg, transforming it to the dragon egg. |
4 | * '''Downplayed''': Bob beat Evulz with wind powers. There were a lot of fumes in the area of the fight, allowing Bob to take control of the fight easily. |
5 | * '''Justified''': The ending isn't always as reliable as the beginning. |
6 | * '''Inverted''': |
7 | ** MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext ("It Still Doesn't Make Sense in Context") |
8 | ** Bob beat General Evulz with [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]]. As it turned out, he melted the ceiling above Evulz, causing a piece to fall on him. In other words, Makes Less Sense In Context. |
9 | * '''Subverted''': As it turned out Bob brought a {{BFG}} to the fight, so his victory over Evulz isn't as confusing. |
10 | * '''Double Subverted''': But the gun was broken beforehand, so the most use it got was as a bludgeon. |
11 | * '''Parodied''': The conclusion is so confusing [[TakeOurWordForIt only the characters hear it and they look a small push away from a madhouse visit.]] After it's explained how we reach the conclusion, it turns out the explanation was so potent and logical it cured everybody who listened of mental problems. |
12 | * '''Zig Zagged''': The plot seems to make no sense at first, then it all gets explained, [[VoodooShark but the explanation for why that happened makes even less sense than what just happened]]. |
13 | * '''Averted''': |
14 | ** The ending makes sense in the first place. |
15 | ** MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext ("Nothing Makes Sense in Context") |
16 | * '''Enforced''': The author finds easily-explained plots to be boring. |
17 | * '''Lampshaded''': |
18 | ** "Right, everybody, explain what happened in the future, because that made ''no'' sense at all without the explanation." |
19 | ** ARareSentence |
20 | * '''Invoked''': Bob wants to give himself a sense of grandeur because he only has rather lame powers compared to the rest, so he develops a convoluted way to end Evulz so it will be notable. |
21 | * '''Exploited''': Bob uses his confusing victory to scare away others who might cause trouble, lest they invoke the wrath of "the man who [[OnceKilledAManWithANoodleImplement killed Evulz with a piece of paper]]." |
22 | * '''Defied''': "Right, I'm just gonna say I poisoned him." |
23 | * '''Discussed''': |
24 | -->'''Bob''': LetMeGetThisStraight, you wound up naked in the desert because you were attacked by three peanut butter ninja land-squids after you stole a magical orb from them, and you needed the orb because you lost a bet to a Crime-Lord?\ |
25 | '''Alice''': [[BluntYes Yup.]] |
26 | * '''Conversed''': "Wow, good luck explaining that ending to anyone [[ContinuityLockout without having to go over the first three seasons]]." |
