Dramatic Drop | comment |
Dramatic Drop is kind of a step-sib to Dropped Glasses and Slow-Motion Drop. Something very startling or utterly shocking is announced or discovered — and the person encountering the shock literally drops what they're holding in astonishment. It most often falls ...and falls... and shatters at their feet — an aural punctuation mark to the bewildering announcement. It usually occurs in specific situations: The person is given shocking or bad news, or sees someone unexpected come into the room, and they drop what they're holding, so it falls to the floor, and breaks. The person was doing something and is in trouble. The person was minding their own business when the bad guy comes and yanks them out of their day. What they were doing falls to the ground, broken or otherwise ruined. In examples played for comedy, characters may drop things they're holding if an attractive character comes their way. If a younger character does something or says something outrageous or rude, you can expect this trope to be played out by their parents or people nearby. The person was minding their own business, and fell ill or succumbed to some injury or illness they were previously unaware of. What they were doing gets dropped. In particular, seizures, heart attacks, catatonia due to major emotional trauma (or Heroic BSoD), etc., are frequently announced by dropping crockery. The person dies. The person drops something in order to make a mad dash to save something more important/valuable. The person is suddenly the victim of Mind Control and turns immediately to the task they've been commanded to do. This is a very commonly used trope. It used to happen quite frequently with telephone receivers left dangling when someone gets shocking news, but the advent of cordless and cellphones has caused that usage to fall out of favor and usage. Used comedically in parodies of the ending of The Usual Suspects. See also Jaw Drop, Bowel-Breaking Bricks, Dramatic Shattering, Dramatic Sit-Down, Poisoned Drink Drop, Spit Take, The Comedy Drop, and Stopped Dead in Their Tracks. Not to be confused with Mic Drop. Sometimes subverted with a Desperate Object Catch. |

Sherlock. Done as a Rule of Three in "The Reichenbach Fall" when Moriarty breaks into the cabinet holding the Crown Jewels. First he takes out the CCTV cameras. The security guard monitoring them is holding a couple of coffee cups, which slop visibly as he quickly puts them down so as to call someone. Then Moriarty remotely opens the vault of the Bank of England; as the bank manager gapes at this impossibility, the cup he's holding tilts in his hand until it pours coffee into this lap. Finally someone bursts in on the Governor of Pentonville Prison to tell him that all the cells are unlocking. Cue the Governor knocking the coffee mug off his table as he leaps to his feet. | |

Chuck: In "Pilot", the hotness of Sarah is startling enough to Chuck that he drops the phone he's using. This develops into one of the series's Running Gags, becoming Chuck's standard reaction to anything unexpected Sarah does — like when she fake-outs with Bryce, or sneaks up on him at the Buy More, or walks into their living room wearing nothing but a corset and matching stockings. In one episode, Big Mike drops his danish (a huge shift in moment-to-moment priorities for the character) when the fire alarm is pulled at the Buy More. Similarly, in a later episode, Big Mike drops his fishing tackle box when he gets a text about a security breach at Buy More. |

The Order of the Stick: Malack drops the tray with bloodwart tea he was carrying at the sight of Nale. Firuk Blackore, upon hearing that the the lead vampire besieging the Firmament Temple of Thor is/was Durkon Thundershield, drops a tray of beers in shock. For a dwarven brewmaster to waste perfectly good beer, that certainly means the situation is serious. In a memory of Durkon's first day as a cleric, his mother Sigdi Thundershield drops her spoon when her son reveals that he saw her name on Thor's temple's Wall of Donors. |

A heartbreaking example occurs in Fushigi Yuugi. Just before Miaka and her Seishi leave for Hokkan, Tamahome pays a visit to his family with Miaka and Nuriko. He buys them a few gifts before heading to their home, but when he opens the door to their house, he is horrified to see that his entire family had been murdered. The ball he had bought for Yuiren rolls right out of his hands and bounces on the floor before reaching her barely-alive fingertips. | |

When Henry Blake's death is announced in the episode "Abyssinia, Henry", a nurse is heard dropping a scalpel amidst the shocked silence in the operating theatre. This was a case of Throw It In!. The actors had not been told prior to filming what would happen; they expected Radar to announce that Henry had made it back to the States safely. The actress's reaction in the first take was genuine, and the director decided to keep it in later takes. |

"Mr. Monk and the Genius": Linda Kloster is nervous because her husband has been threatening to kill her. Her housekeeper tries to calm her, then leaves the room to get her a sandwich. When the housekeeper reenters the room, she drops her tea tray as she sees Linda's dead body on the bed. Lampshaded and played with in the same episode: Randy tells Stottlemeyer to put down his coffee mug so he won't drop it when he hears the news. He puts it down, but when Randy tells him that Linda is dead, he picks it up again and hurls it against the wall. |

Criminologist Himura and Mystery Writer Arisugawa: After Moroboshi and Himura seem to have fatally shot each other, the scene cuts to Tokie dropping a glass in her home. While she doesn't know what's happened, her expression indicates that she can feel something off. Later, in the same episode, Tokie and Arisugawa are in her home when a surprising guest walks through the door. Tokie is so shocked that she once again drops the bowl that she's holding — this time, however, Arisugawa rushes forward to grab it just before it hits the ground. |

Fawlty Towers: In "Gourmet Night", Polly tries to get Basil to put down the bottle he's opening first, but he still ends up dropping it on his foot after she tells him that the chef has gotten drunk right before an important dinner. In the episode "Communication Problems", Basil drops an expensive vase when The Major tells Sybill that Basil had been betting on the horses behind her back. In "The Kipper and the Corpse", Manuel happens to be salting a plate of sausages. On hearing the news that a guest has died, he stands still, holding the salt jug, which empties its entire contents over the sausages. In "Basil the Rat", Basil has a wine bottle in his hand; he suddenly sees a box of rat poison in the presence of the health inspector; he grabs the poison box, dropping the bottle, which smashes. Moments later, he drops and smashes another bottle. |

Doctor Who: "Aliens of London": The Ninth Doctor brings Rose back to London after her first journey in the TARDIS. Problem is, he overshot the return date. He intended to drop her off only twelve hours after they left, but they arrive twelve months into the future. Rose's mum thought her daughter was dead, and she's so stunned at her daughter's sudden return (while Rose has no idea of how much time really passed) she drops her coffee mug and it smashes into pieces... what a waste of good Joe. And then she furiously bitch-slaps the Doctor when she hears that he's responsible for whisking away her beloved child for a year. "Boom Town" has it just offscreen: The Ninth Doctor goes to confront a previous enemy, who is currently Mayor of Cardiff, and asks her receptionist to tell her "The Doctor" is there to see her. He goes in, the Doctor turns, waits... and looks rather smug when he hears something shatter. "The Vampires of Venice": When the Eleventh Doctor turns up at Rory's stag night and casually mentions that he kissed his fiancée, we hear a beer glass being dropped offscreen. "The Pandorica Opens": It takes the Doctor a long time to notice that Rory's mysteriously come Back from the Dead, after being killed and Retgoned in "Cold Blood". So long that he walks out of the room carrying two Cyber guns before the penny drops — as do the guns, offscreen. "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" begins with the Doctor materializing the TARDIS around Amy and Rory while they're at home — helping Rory's dad Brian look at a broken lightbulb socket. When Brian realizes that he's in a different place, he drops the lightbulb he's holding in shock. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: When Giles discovers Jenny's corpse in "Passion", he drops the champagne bottle he was carrying. In "Earshot", Buffy is temporarily telepathic and suddenly hears someone in the cafeteria think about killing everyone in the school. She's so shocked by this that she drops her lunch tray, and the whole cafeteria applauds her (while she, of course, goes into a mindless panic). In "Out of My Mind", Joyce is preparing breakfast for Dawn before suddenly asking Dawn who she is and then dropping the plate and collapsing. |

He asks two other customers what they're giggling about on their phones, and when shown an online clip of the cause of the highway stoppage — a middle-aged woman in mid-nervous breakdown, standing on an overpass platform and alternately screaming at and flashing the road below — he immediately drops his purchases and takes off running, as the woman in the live viral footage is his own wife. | |

Kamen Rider Double: This is the Character Tic of Kazu, who drops whatever he's holding almost every single time he's asked a question or is told something even remotely dramatic. (This is in almost every scene he's in.) He hardly even seems to be fazed by this in any way, regardless of what he may be holding, be it a spoon, a suitcase, a teacup, etc., even if the object breaks. It seems to be foreshadowing towards his telekinetic powers, and becomes a Brick Joke when he transforms into the Utopia Dopant by dropping the Utopia Gaia Memory and letting his Gaia Driver suck the falling Memory in. | |

Defied in The Chronicles of Amber. Before telling another character some potentially shocking news over a long-distance call, Merlin advises that the person put down anything they're holding that might be fragile. | |

Justice League Unlimited uses this trope a fair bit: The Flash drops his autograph pen when the bad guys show up. Wonder Woman drops Superman's birthday present when she and Batman walk in and find him dangerously compromised by a Lotus Eater Plant. |

On an episode of Night Court, someone says, "Who's willing to drop everything and help me?" Roz drops her lunch tray, just before she passes out. Turns out she has diabetes. | |
