This is where one character gives another character an item as the symbol of an express or implied promise, with the intent that it will be returned at the fulfillment of such promise. The item does not have to be valuable or important in any way except as a symbol of the promise. It may function as a #1 Dime, a Memento MacGuffin, or even an Iconic Item, but not always. Usually this promise is to be reunited later after some separation, such as one character being taken to jail. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This is generally a subtrope of Reunion Vow. Usually happens during a Heartwarming Moment. Examples |

A more subtle example in the very last scene of Hero. Bernie and his son are at the zoo, when he hears that a woman's son has fallen into the lion's pit. Bernie hollers for a zookeeper, but when it's clear there's no help coming, he has to step forth. But first, he tells his son to watch his shoes. | |
