Things have been getting crazy, the plot has been thickening, and The Hero has been keeping calm the whole time, despite the fact that the one thing The Hero wants to do is to go off and scream for a little while. This trope is often prefaced with the character inhaling sharply and deeply as their Rage Breaking Point is reached, and may sometimes also be accompanied by them furiously gripping their head immediately before something snaps. Despite the similarity in name, has nothing to do whatsoever with And I Must Scream, or The Scream (which is a Fate Worse than Death and a horrific reaction, respectively. This is a frustration trope). May overlap with Skyward Scream and Angrish. Sister trope of Cathartic Crying. Has nothing to do with a Jerkass having a screaming breakdown to the satisfaction of the audience. That's Catharsis Factor. Examples |

In Tokyo Ghoul √ A, in the episode where Kaneki comes back, Hinami, who's kept her emotions bottled up, because, since she's so young, she didn't know how to confront him about what he's doing, so she unleashes two out the window after the conflict is somewhat resolved. | |

In one episode of Full House, when Jessie is stressed out because the opening night of the SMASH Club isn't going right, Rebecca tells him when she's in those kind of situations, she gets in her car, rolls up the windows, and lets out a good yell. Jesse's takeaway? From now on, he'd do the driving. | |

In the phobia confession scene, the contestants have cause to suspect that Courtney is afraid of green Jell-O as per canon.note In the original, her fear was to green jelly in general, as opposed to the Jell-O brand specifically. This leads to a running gag wherein various people refer to this suspected phobia in passing and Courtney vehemently denies it. The alleged phobia is finally mentioned once too often, and "[t]he camp rang with Courtney's scream of frustration." | |

At the end of Maskerade, the villain has been defeated, but everyone at the opera house is still hanging around instead of leaving. Agnes, the exceptionally-talented but decidedly stout singer who carried most of the weight in the story, is struggling to deal with the absurdities of opera, the least of which isn't that the conventionally beautiful, airheaded, and talentless Christine is getting all the credit for her work. Nanny Ogg suggests Agnes have a good yell, and she lets out in a truly spectacular scream that goes all the way up through her magically enhanced range. Then the audience leaves. Because it ain't over until the fat lady sings. | |

In X-Wing: Iron Fist, Imperial infiltrator Lara Nostil/Gara Petothel has a mental breakdown when her desire to make a Heel–Face Turn is complicated by her not being sure who she is anymore. She asks a fellow Wraith where to go to have a good scream, and is directed to an unused storage room in the asteroid base they're operating out of... and is warned not to go past a line marked on the deck, because that's where the artificial gravity cuts off. After yelling her lungs out, she's able to pull herself together enough to keep going, but is still affected by her Double Consciousness and remains mentally fragile for the rest of the series. | |

In the seventh chapter of the Lonely Wolf Treat series, Mochi is really upset by the revelation that her family lied to her about the death of her uncle Mango, and runs off to a nearby cliff in order to scream her anger out. The screaming actually helps her cheer up, and she encourages Treat (who feels guilty over Mochi getting upset) to do the same. | |

In 42, Jackie is brutally verbally harassed by a racist hick on the opposing team. You will want to punch the guy in the face, and maybe a few other places as well. After five straight minutes of this, Jackie calls a timeout, goes down to the dugout hallway, and screams his lungs out while slamming his bat into the walls so hard it breaks, and even after that he keeps hitting it. | |

Kaeloo: In one episode, the main four are informed that they've been fired from their jobs and spend the whole episode feeling stressed and anxious. Once everything clears up and they get their jobs back, Kaeloo pulls a pillow out of nowhere and screams into it. The buddies try to help Stumpy study for a test and he keeps failing to understand what they're teaching him. Eventually they nearly give up and Kaeloo says she's starting to feel exhausted. She asks Pretty if she feels the same way and Pretty runs away, screams angrily, and comes back saying she feels fine. |

Daredevil (2015): In season 3, one of Wilson Fisk's methods of gaining Dex's loyalty is to tell him that a primal scream may help him deal with the countless stresses his situation is putting on him, which he does. Note that Dex is a clinical psychopath who spent years genuinely trying to do good under the guidance of a therapist who died and left him without anyone to act as his non-existent conscience (which Fisk is fully aware of thanks to his contacts), so Fisk's apparently kindly suggestion of coping strategies is a major step to making the confused man come over to his side. We later see Dex doing it again after he fails to complete the task of assassinating Karen Page, but it becomes increasingly clear that it's only effective in the short-term. | |

Portnoy's Complaint has a rare example of this trope at the very end of a work. After spending the entire novel monologuing, Alex asks his psychoanalyst's permission to let out a scream of frustration over his perpetual guilt. "Because that's maybe what I need most of all, to howl. A pure howl, without any more words between me and it!" There follows a scream running several lines of type. Then comes the novel's final "Punch Line": | |

In Ergo Proxy, The Stoic detective Re-l keeps her calm throughout the series until a particular episode where nothing whatsoever happens for the entire episode. This forced idleness, multiplied by her lack of understanding of the overall plot and her companions' weirdly relaxed attitudes, finally drive her frustration over the edge. She decides to take it all out on the wind, which died at the beginning of the episode, stranding them in the middle of nowhere (since they are traveling on a wind-propelled land "boat"). The wind picks up immediately after she's done yelling. | |

Tidus states that it's really not going to help this time. Even Rikku, when you talk to her in the airship at the end of the game, admits it sometimes helps her to scream when she has a lot on her mind. |

Fluttershy does this in the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Green Isn't Your Color". Because she's so timid and quiet, her scream humorously came out as more of a long squeal. | |

In the last episode of Undergrads, Brody and Krueger are studying for exam week, when the social and academic pressures become too much for Brody. He opens up a window and starts screaming. Krueger declares it brilliant, and joins in, sparking a chain reaction which eventually causes the entire city to erupt in a massive chorus of screams. | |

The Legend of Total Drama Island: In the phobia confession scene, the contestants have cause to suspect that Courtney is afraid of green Jell-O as per canon.note In the original, her fear was to green jelly in general, as opposed to the Jell-O brand specifically. This leads to a running gag wherein various people refer to this suspected phobia in passing and Courtney vehemently denies it. The alleged phobia is finally mentioned once too often, and "[t]he camp rang with Courtney's scream of frustration." Various people are occasionally described as looking like they are about to scream due to tension or exasperation. The first such incident comes when Chris, who is losing patience with the dimwitted Lindsay, addresses her by saying, "look, bra", and she responds by looking down and inspecting her straining halter top. Chris looks ready to scream. |

Played for laughs in The Golden Girls, the episode where Rose fears she has AIDS. Blanche tells her to scream or throw something or whatever to let it all out, and it appears she's going to, but it's just a loud "HECK!". Possibly a subversion. Played straighter another time when Blanche, said "I'm so mad I could scream" and then did. Prompting a "that's the first time I ever heard someone say that and then do it" type comment from Rose. | |

In the film Bringing Down the House, Steve Martin's character listens to a (presumably long) confession from his teenage daughter about all the things in her life. After hearing this, he calmly walks upstairs, takes a pillow, holds it to his face, and screams. He then proceeds to take a couple of pills, then scream into the pillow again. | |

Do Revenge: Drea has been publicly humiliated after her boyfriend leaks a nude video of her. She meets Eleanor, who admits years ago a girl named Carissa outed her and cast her as a predatory lesbian. After Drea comments that "being outed by your own team" is pretty brutal, Eleanor suddenly screams. She then calms down, explains this trope to Drea, and encourages her to do it as well, which she eventually does. In truth, Eleanor was pissed that Drea doesn't remember that she started that rumor. | |
