Left Hanging, No Ending and Aborted Arc
Edited by AlexThePrettyGood Everything can be found on the Internet... except common sense.
Is there a trope for when a question pertinent to the plot is just plain left unanswered, either due to all the involved parties being killed off or Put on a Bus, or due to the point-of-view character just being out of the loop?
Not quite What Happened to the Mouse?, as that refers more to unimportant things that just never get followed up on.
