"Facing the Bullets" One-Liner | comment |
Before a character dies, they fire off a line essentially saying "I'm going to die, but our fight goes on," or otherwise demonstrating their continued defiance toward and disdain for their killers. Usually included in a Last Stand. Can be the last line of an entire series if it's a Bolivian Army Ending. The Doomed Moral Victor is... fond of this trope. A specific take is Regret Eating Me as well as See You in Hell. Very very often a Dying Moment of Awesome. Some do manage to live, which The Cavalry can help along, but there's significant overlap with Final Speech. A subtrope of Gallows Humor. See Face Death with Dignity. Similar to Defiant to the End, but employs humor rather than treating the situation with contempt or rage. See also Dying Declaration of Hate. Contrast Pre-Mortem One-Liner for when the giving end of the death blow does a one-liner. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

In Ansem Retort, Zexion, after being cornered by two werepires, proudly declared to Sho that he banged the Contessa, flipped them off, and said: "I shall die as I lived: a complete and utter tool". Granted, Axel intervenes and Zexion survives, but still. | |

In Worm: Regent does this just before getting swallowed by Echidna, who can create evil clones of the people she consumes. As he's getting swallowed he shouts "Do you think when you make my evil clone, you can give him a goatee?" Although it turns out this wasn't his death, as he's pulled out of Echidna's body later with no permanent harm done. Regent's last words when facing Behemoth are "Hey, shitcrumb! Easy-" He does this in an attempt to direct Behemoth's attention away from his implied romantic interest Imp, and probably an intentional sacrifice. Just before this quote, he says "Fuck it" and marches into the open. |

The Wicker Man (1973): Sgt. Howie is being dragged to be burnt alive as a human sacrifice, but defiantly affirms his faith in the face of the murderous villagers. The Affably Evil Magnificent Bastard Lord Summerisle immediately turns this around and reminds him it's that very piety that makes him such an ideal candidate for sacrifice - and that the only reward for his faithfulness is to die a martyr's death. Howie, shaken to the core, opts to pray aloud: "Dear God, I humbly entreat thee for the soul of this thy servant, Neil Howie, who will today depart from this world. Do not deliver me into the enemy's hands or put me out of mind forever. Let me not undergo the real pains of hell, dear God, because I die unshriven. And establish me in that bliss which knows no ending, O Christ, Our Lord..." | |

In the film, The Alamo, Davy Crockett is left the only survivor of the entire battle. Santa Anna offers him a chance to live by formally surrendering for his army, but Crockett rejects it and demands that Santa Ana's army surrender to him instead. Furious, the enemy commander orders him stabbed with bayonets, to which Davy's only reply is a warning that "I'm a screamer!" | |

"A ninja's duty in life... is death!" said in Usagi Yojimbo by Shingen of the Neko ninja clan, whose last chance to sabotage an armory is to light a pile of black powder while he and the corrupt government member he's shouting at are inside the building. Overlaps with Not Quite Dead and adds a hint of irony because that ninja had been struck down earlier. | |

Yeah, that's pretty much how I pictured it since I got assigned to this unit" Additionally 2 episodes later, Sarge told Grif about his measures in the event of his death, finishing with the words "-and always remember: Somebody hates you" |

In Umineko: When They Cry, at the end of the second arc, Rosa gives a heart-wrenching last line as she faces down a garden full of Mooks, reaffirming for the audience how much she loves her daughter. "Come on! Let the one of you who wants to eat this bullet Maria chambered for me come forward!" In the anime, that line is cut, and the One-Liner becomes "Maria, let's go together. Always together. You'll always be together with your Mama!" In a less heartwarming and more straight out awesome example, Will in episode 7. He is facing the strongest witch in the world who has vowed to kill Lion no matter what he does. He raises his sword, points it at the witch, and says a combination of three awesome one-liners, as his situation gets progressively worse, ultimately concluding with both him and Lion about to be killed before Lambadelta steps in. A literal one from Ep 6, Dawn of the golden witch: "Hi, pleased to meet you! I am Furudo Erika, the detective! I may be an uninvited guest, but please, welcome me! I am the visitor, the 18th human on Rokkenjima!" |

Justice League: "Gentlemen, it's been an honor." Spoken by Batman as he's manually piloting the Watchtower on a crash course with the Thanagarian hypergate during the series finale. Subverted in that Superman saves him at the last nanosecond (as usual), but though he claimed he "knew" Supes would pull through, he was obviously willing to go down with the ship to save Earth. | |

Les Misérables has Enjolras against a wall, flinging his gun away and baring his chest to the firing squad, saying "Shoot Me" and defying them to shoot him. Then Grantaire, having been completely cynical about the Republic cause Enjolras has been fighting for, picks this moment to wake up from a drunken slumber and shout "Vive La Republique! I'm one of them!" He deliberately puts himself in front of the squad and reconciles himself with Enjolras. | |

Phantasy Star II has one for every single party member, except the protagonist who just strikes a cool pose in the Bolivian Army Ending. In the PS2 remake, Nei is similarly silent in the ending. |

Tales of Vesperia: Thinking he's about to be eaten by a monster (after collapsing after a long traversal of a desert and a tough battle on top of that) Yuri says: "Heh... go ahead. Hope you choke... on my bones..." Lucky him this isn't the end and it's heavily implied said "monster" actually is the one to get him and the group to safety. | |

Before Danny was shot dead in Spooks, he went into a rant, calling his Iraqi captor a "death-worshipping fascist". Arguably a case of "provoking the bullets one-liner", as he went on the rant specifically in order to get shot dead and thus save his companion's life. | |

Kaji in Neon Genesis Evangelion: "You're a little late, aren't you?" Ritsuko: "Liar." We never find out what lie prompts this accusation. A version in another language says that she was told by Gendou, "I've always loved you." Maybe that's not what was said, but It Makes Sense in Context. |

Watkins in the Starship Troopers movie gets "Just trying to kill some bugs, sir!" before setting off a nuke to bring down as many bugs as he can (as he is too badly wounded to run with the main characters). Although really his last words are something along the lines of "want some? WANT SOME?" with added swearing and shooting thrown in (possibly as a nod to Aliens, see below), which might, in fact, be even better. |

Zack in Crisis Core, facing down half the Shinra army on his own - ...plus, his war cry of 'IRASSHAIMASSE!'/COME AND GET IT! has the added connotation in Japanese of being shouted out by staff at every shop and restaurant, and would probably be better translated as 'COME GET SERVED!' |

Batman: The Brave and the Bold: The Lighter and Softer Animated Adaptation of Emperor Joker has one. Batman is bound and dangling on a rope over an Acid Pool, Facing Death with Dignity, and the helpless, powerless Bat-Mite sadly apologizes to him, saying that he feels useless without his powers. The Dark Knight uses this one-liner as a response to try to encourage Bat-Mite: "The measure of a hero is his heart, not his POWERS!" As Batman is finishing his sentence, a blade cuts the rope, dropping him into the acid, where he gets Stripped to the Bone to Bat-Mite's horror. As the Joker laughs in glee on seeing this, he brings his nemesis back to life just to kill him all over again in a Death Montage. | |

The Order of the Stick: He gets saved at the last second, but Belkar spouts one when very recently Fallen Paladin Miko Miyazaki bears down on him. Lord Shojo delivers one to that same paladin right before being cut down for "treason". Even better are his actual last words after being mortally wounded, causing the gods to remove the paladin's powers for committing an evil act. |

Stargate SG-1's most memorable example is when There But For the Grace of God, AU Sam is trying to prevent a Goa'uld invasion of Earth/the SGC. When some Jaffa corner her in the briefing room, she at first claims to surrender and that she has valuable technology she's willing to share with Apophis. They cautiously lower their weapons, expecting this weak human woman to show them the tech, giving her time to pull out a grenade and say "Thank you. I also wish to blow us all to hell." Cue massive explosion. Every free Jaffa: "I die free!" Colonel O'Neill has some good ones: "Now what?" "Now we die." "Well, that's a bad plan." Hathor's last lines and O'Neill's response are pretty good. Colonel O'Neill grabs Hathor from behind. Ma'chello's very bittersweet goodbye. "Thank you, for my holiday." A slight subversion, O'Neill THINKS he and Teal'c are about to bite the big one. |

Moist von Lipwig aka Albert Spangler's last words before being hanged in Going Postal are "I commend my soul to any god that can find it", which everyone later agrees are pretty good as last words go. He doesn't actually die, but it's still a pretty cool line. Rather against tradition, and with a little huffiness from the executioner, he had been allowed an opportunity to improve on his original last words: "I wasn't actually expecting to die." | |

The Lord of the Rings has Gandalf's last words, "Fly, you fools", before he falls to the abyss dragged by the Balrog. The trope is subverted since Gandalf does not die right there and keeps on fighting, but his fellowship and the reader doesn't learn that until much later. | |

While a bit tricky on the heroic part, it's hard to fault that considering the nature of Full Metal Jacket. Namely, the drill sergeant staring down the barrel of a loaded M-14 being held by a visibly deranged recruit that had just that day gotten word that he made it through to proper infantry. He may have thought "Private Pyle" wasn't going to shoot at all, or that yelling him down would work as it always had, but you have to have a set in order to look your potential murderer in the eye and scream in a rage "WHAT IS YOUR MAJOR MALFUNCTION, NUMBNUTS?! DIDN'T MOMMY AND DADDY SHOW YOU ENOUGH ATTENTION WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD?!?!" | |

After Ben recites his list of grievances about how Jacob always ignored him even though Ben dutifully followed his orders, and that Ben has never been allowed to see him but Locke is marched straight to him, Ben asks "what about me?" Jacob replies "what ''about'' you?" Ben stabs him to death. Though these aren't actually his last words; those would be "they're coming" as he lies bleeding to death. |

One Piece: Late Pirate King Gold Roger moments before his execution, "You want my treasure? You can have it! I left everything I gathered together in one place. Now you just have to find it!" This prompts many young adventurers to become adventure-seeking pirates, and kicks off what is known as "The Great Pirate Era". As Whitebeard faces death at the hands of the Marines and Blackbeard Pirates, he loudly and proudly declares that "[The treasure of] The One Piece is real!" once again reigniting the flames of adventure and romance. Wano Country sees Kozuki Oden fire a zinger that's a variation of his catchphrase. He was being boiled alive for a whole hour before his execution: "Oden wouldn't be Oden..." Unfortunately, he didn't get to finish, forcing his retainers to deliver the punch line. "...if it wasn't boiled!" |

In Code Geass R2, Lelouch gives an insulting one to the Black Knights after they betray him designed to drive Kallen away from him to have her spared from the crossfire. The movie version has them suspect he's just saying it and don't want to shoot yet, but they're ignored by Schneizel's men. | |

Ghostbusters Ghostbusters (1984): Ray and Peter have this little exchange right before they cross the streams in a desperate, almost certainly suicidal gambit to stop Gozer: In another villainous example in Ghostbusters II, the Big Bad was poisoned, shot, stabbed, hung, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered.note Venkman: Ouch. Just before his head died, he said: "Death is but a door, time is but a window, I'll be back!" |

Darkest Dungeon: Each of the hero classes has a unique response to being chosen as a target for "Come Unto Your Maker", the One-Hit Kill attack used by the Final Boss. While some will express fear (like the Grave Digger or the Jester) or beg for their lives (like the Arbalest or the Vestal), most will react stoically (like the Bounty Hunter or the Highwayman) or defiantly (like the Crusader or the Hellion). | |

Get Smart has plenty of these comebacks in the face of danger such as Smart saying "And loving it!" when told of the dangers he's faced. One particularly good line is when he's told that if captured he'll be tortured. "Well, I can stand the pain if they can stand the screaming." | |

In the Blackadder Goes Forth episode "Corporal Punishment", Blackadder comes up with some snappy one-liners when he's facing the firing squad ("This side of the wall or the other side?"). However, when it starts to look like his planned last-minute reprieve isn't going to happen, his nerve breaks and his actual last words (had the reprieve not happened anyway) would have been "Okay, something's gone badly wrong here. Baldrick, you're mincemeat!" Played straight in "Goodbyeee"; just before Blackadder and his men go over the top, Baldrick comes up with a cunning plan to escape. Blackadder muses "Well, I'm afraid it'll have to wait. Whatever it was, I'm sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would've noticed another madman around here?", followed by him wishing the others good luck - a surprisingly warm statement, coming from our favorite Magnificent Bastard. Subverted in the Blackadder II episode "Head"; Percy says, regarding one of the day's executions: |

Doctor Who: In "Day of the Daleks", the Controller (the human leader of a Dalek puppet government who switched sides to aid the Doctor) says "Who knows? I may have helped to exterminate you," just before he gets, well, exterminated. Leela's response to imminent and agonizing death at the hands of Magnus Greel in "The Talons of Weng-Chiang" says rather a lot about her (she does, however, survive). Echoed in "Bad Wolf", after the Controller (the human controller of a Dalek puppet corporation who switched sides to aid the Doctor) says "Oh my masters! You can kill me, for I have brought your destruction!" just before she gets, well, destroyed. The Daleks elicit this type of reaction very, very often: "Tooth and Claw": Sir Robert MacLeish, while facing down an alien werewolf armed with nothing but an ornamental sword: "Last of the Time Lords": Once again delivered by Jack Harkness (who, by that point, has become immortal): "Ah, here we go again..." "The Stolen Earth": Harriet Jones, having had her location exposed to the Daleks while helping the Doctor's companions find him, is immediately faced by a squad as they crash into her house. Staring death in the face, she uses her last seconds to tell them who she is: |

Battlestar Galactica. When confronted by Cylon agent (and ex-lover) Gina, Admiral Cain's last words are short and rude, as befits her character. Boomer's death in the Grand Finale. She rebelled against Cavil and saved Hera from being experimented on in an attempt to bring back resurrection. She then returned Hera to Helo and Athena. Boomer then allowed Athena to execute her. |

Evillious Chronicles: In "Daughter of Evil", when Riliane is at the guillotine, she looks to the crowd and says, "Oh, it's time for tea", her signature line aside from "Bow down to me". "The Servant of Evil", however, reveals that it's actually Allen, Riliane's servant and twin, up there, disguised as her, with Riliane in the crowd, bawling her eyes out. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac, after the death of Christian, walks out into a battle between the French and the Spanish, rearing for a fight. His last words before they’re lost in the noise of battle: “They’re the Cadets of Gascony, of Carbon De Castel-Jaloux! Fighting and lying shamelessly ...” At which point falls the curtain. He gets better, if only for one more act, at the end of which he dies again—for real. | |
