The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.

So Alice does something only mildly out of the ordinary or makes some minor change to her routine, either for practical reasons or just because she wants to do something different. Bob, however, decides to make a major issue of this and says that this minor change means that something is seriously wrong. An example would be an episode of Star Trek: Voyager when some Red Shirt decides to change his Drink Order and Neelix starts thinking that the guy is possessed by an Energy Being.
