Two characters are in a room having a conversation. One of them makes to leave. But as this character reaches the door, they turn back to deliver a final line. Often this is some bit of exposition that sets up something later in the episode ("the starboard discombobulator's on the fritz") but that the writer couldn't figure out how to work into the scene's main conversation. Other times, during an argument, it's used to reinforce a "The Reason You Suck" Speech with what usually equates to "The Reason I Don't Suck" and/or Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking. In some shows there might be several lines of dialog between the two characters as the departing actor tries desperately not to look as though he's loitering in the doorway. Just to mix things up a little bit, sometimes they'll do it the other way around: the character who remains in the room will call to the character who's leaving just as the latter reaches the door. This trope is distinctly different from a good old-fashioned exit line, because the line itself isn't dramatic ("You can't fire me! I quit!") and is often in fact something of a non sequitur, which must be eased into with a phrase like "and another thing", "oh yeah", or "by the way." Sometimes a character actually gets out the door, then comes back in to deliver a line, but this is usually for comedic effect. See Door Focus. Not to be confused with And Another Thing..., the sixth book in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy. |

Done in the third episode of Sherlock. Jim Moriarty tells Watson and Holmes that he isn't going to kill them right now, and leaves, apparently taking his unseen sniper with him. Holmes runs to Watson and gets off the explosive jacket he is wearing, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief... until Moriarty walks back in, the little red dots of death return, and he says he's changed his mind and he can't let them leave after all. | |

The medical version (the "doorknob question") appeared in House: according to the writers (and presumably their medical consultants), many patients come in for a trivial ailment, and then bring up the "other thing" (probably the serious illness they actually want treatment for, but which embarrasses them) as they reach for the door knob. | |

Kellerman got an awesome moment in his first case on Homicide: Life on the Street. Interviewing a suspected murderer/arsonist, he tells the suspect that they don't have much of a case beyond what he's already explained away, and that it looks like he's free to go. As the man is grabbing his coat, Kellerman asks, "Why'd you kill the dog?" The man's answer, "I didn't know the dog was there." | |

Discworld: Subverted in Men at Arms. Vimes, investigating an explosion at the Assassins' Guild, pulls an And Another Thing... moment to try to get Dr. Cruces, the Guild leader, to admit there was a theft as well. Dr. Cruces, however, doesn't fall for it, and flatly states, "I never said anything was stolen." It's true, he didn't say anything was stolen, but that doesn't mean that nothing was stolen. The key Plot Device was stolen. In fact Vimes expected Cruces to deny anything was stolen — doing so was what confirmed what was stolen was important. | |

During one episode of Metalocalypse, Dethklok walks in on a sadistic fashion designer skinning models alive. They can only stand there and scream. Except for Nathan, who makes sure to say: Made funnier by the fact that the entire episode beforehand was focused on the band working up the nerve to fire him in the first place (they found him too creepy). |

In the Daffy Duck cartoon "Birth of a Notion," instead of flying south for the winter, Daffy decides to stay over at a random house, but the owner is a Peter Lorre-type mad scientist, who needs a duck's wishbone for an experiment and naturally chooses Daffy. The resultant mad chase ends with Daffy feeling so mistreated that he soundly decides to just leave and tells the scientist so. As he leaves, he stops briefly to tell the scientist, "And another thing... you're a slovenly housekeeper!" | |

Perfected by Lieutenant Columbo as a means of turning the screw on a suspect who is already exasperated by Columbo's shenanigans, since an Exasperated Perp is liable to make a crucial mistake. Though this became Columbo's most distinctive character trait, it started as a mistake, with two stories on how it came to be. In one, during the filming of the Columbo pilot, "Prescription Murder", Peter Falk simply forgot to deliver his last line before leaving the set, so he turned around, came back, and said "One more thing..." The take was left in, and became a defining moment. In the other, it was the writers that forgot something they needed Columbo to say, so — this being a time of type-writers — rather than start the script page over they threw in "One more thing". | |

Uncle from Jackie Chan Adventures easily established "One more thing!" as one of his catchphrases by the end of his first scene in the series. In the French version, this is changed to "Je n'ai pas fini!" ("I'm not done yet!"), with similar results. Especially funny when the "one more thing" was to smack Jackie in the head. In fact, there was one episode in which Tohru actually called him out on this. As a result, the master and the apprentice could no longer do their teamwork, and Tohru was kidnapped. When it happened, Uncle blamed himself while noting his tendency to overrepeat "one more thing" (not without saying "one more thing" before, of course) and whacking himself in the head repeatedly. This seems to be something that Uncle picked up as he got older. When he wore the Dog Talisman of immortality in one episode, he regained the vitality and mindset of his youth, though his outside appearance remained unchanged. Jade notices that he hasn't said "And one more thing" for a while. |

Seinfeld: In the second part of "The Cadillac", Susan Ross, George's fiance, goes to Elaine's apartment to confront Elaine about what she suspects is an affair between Elaine and George (in reality, George was lying so he could go on a date with Marisa Tomei). Initially, the two of them seem to have cleared everything up, as Elaine gave the same story that George gave Susan (that Elaine was having issues with her boyfriend over his importing/exporting business), which pleases Susan, who then turns to leave. As soon as she gets to the door, however, she asks Elaine what the issue is with the business and, since this part of the lie wasn't explained, the lie begins to unravel. When George competes for sympathy points against a survivor of the Andrea Doria, he moves the condo board to tears by going through his lifetime of tragedies as a "short, stocky, slow witted, bald man." After concluding, he throws in: |

The Bugs Bunny cartoon "Hurdy Gurdy Hare" has Bugs going into business as an organ grinder but he fires his monkey for pocketing the take. He faces a gorilla who wants revenge on behalf of the monkey. When Bugs is done telling the gorilla off, he adds "And another thing... stop breathing on my cup!" Bob Clampett's Tortoise Wins By A Hare (1943) has Bugs disguised as an old timer trying to learn Cecil Turtle's method of beating the hare. His final line (indicating he knew it was Bugs all along): "Another thing... rabbits aren't very bright, either!" In the Daffy Duck cartoon "Birth of a Notion," instead of flying south for the winter, Daffy decides to stay over at a random house, but the owner is a Peter Lorre-type mad scientist, who needs a duck's wishbone for an experiment and naturally chooses Daffy.

Since Clouseau doesn't know it closed, he turns around as he says this, points at Dreyfus — and thus smashes the frosted glass window in the door. Embarrassed, he leaves without saying whatever that other thing was. | |

In Daria, Daria Morgendorffer's mother and her principal don't get along very well. When they end up in a tent alone together in one of the Class Trip episodes, it looks like they'll be at each other's throats immediately, but the show subverts expectations by showing them to have... a pleasant conversation. An awkward conversation, to be sure, but a pleasant one. Helen ends up (unintentionally) admitting her age and her insecurity about it, and that doesn't escape Ms. Li's notice when, moments later, the scene devolves into a shouting match. As Helen is turning to leave, Ms. Li stops her to say, "And by the way, you look fifty." Helen's mouth turns into an "O" of shock. | |

In The Jungle Book (1967), Bagheera is adamant to Baloo that Mowgli should leave the jungle for the man-village, arguing that Baloo cannot possibly take care of Mowgli, if his getting kidnapped by monkeys was any indication. Baloo tries to ignore Bagheera, until the latter further explains why Mowgli should go back to the man-village: | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Tywin tells Tyrion, "You will not take the whore to court." Subverted later in A Feast for Crows: Qyburn uses this to bring up to Cersei a play that seems to taunt the crown, leading her to order the performers be punished. This doesn't add anything to the plot and is never mentioned again. |

Old Biff to 1955 Biff in Back to the Future Part II: "There's one more thing. One day, a kid or a crazy old man who claims to be a scientist is going to come around asking...". This is a callback to an earlier point in the film (though it occurs later chronologically), when 1985A Biff says to Marty: "Oh, and he told me one more thing. He said, 'Someday a crazy, wild-eyed scientist, or a kid may show up asking about that book. 'And if that ever happens...' (pulls out a gun) Funny. I never thought it would be you." | |

Tywin Lannister from Game of Thrones ends some meetings with an afterthought. His hostile distaste for Tyrion's whoremonging ends two political conversations with his son, and when Tywin is heading for the door after a one-sided audience with King Joffrey, he feels the need to add a last second pleasantry, so he turns back and utters a condescending "Your Grace". | |

Also in "The Wedding Party", Basil bursts into the bedroom to tell the Lloyds and Jean and Alan that they'll have to leave the hotel, because they had accidentally double-booked the rooms, and he is so sorry. He leaves, and then re-enters to say that actually, he is not sorry at all. In "Basil the Rat", Mr Carnegie makes a closing comment to Basil, echoing Basil introducing him to Sybil as a gourmet scavenger: |

Doctor Who: In "Rose", the Doctor does this to Rose twice. After their first meeting, the Doctor ushers Rose out of the building and slams the door behind her, then opens it again to exchange the introductions they didn't have time for while being chased by Autons. At the end, the Doctor asks Rose to travel with him, but she turns him down, so he leaves, dematerializing the TARDIS. He then returns a moment later, leaning out of the TARDIS to say, "Did I mention it also travels in time?" That persuades her. |

In the court system of Phoenix Wright's setting, witnesses can be held responsible only for what they say while testifying (however obviously dishonest they may be otherwise). Therefore, the Fey method of lawyering involves asking a dishonest witness for more and more details about what they "saw", until that witness trips up and adds a detail incompatible with the rest of their story. Then the lawyer asks politely that they add [innocuous detail] to their official testimony, the witness does, and only then can their deceit be exposed. | |

Right before Jesse's dragged into their truck, Walt stops them for a second to let Jesse know that he was at Jesse's house the night Jane died, he saw her dying and chose not to save her when he easily could have, just to crush his spirit one last time out of spite. The show's creator considers this one small act of pointless last-second sadism the absolute cruelest thing Walt ever does. | |

Then, it fades into a clip showing a model of Mewtwo being rendered, with the video confirming that the Legendary Pokémon will finally be returning to the series as free DLC in Spring 2014.

Star Trek: The Next Generation often raised this to an art form, with whoever Picard was talking with in the ready room would say that one more thing at the door. And the reverse happens just as often, with Picard adding "one more thing" when whoever is in his ready room at the time is almost out the door, especially in the later seasons. In fact, near the end of the series, it's surprising to see anyone coming out of the ready room without Picard adding a comment. | |
