Long-Lost Uncle Aesop	comment	The favorite relative/best friend character who appears in only a few episodes or just one Very Special Episode, was never mentioned before, and is never heard from again. They usually provide An Aesop, like "drunk driving is bad" or "beware of strange adults." The purpose of these characters seems to be delivering the moral without having to inflict the issue on a regular basis, or, in the case of a fatal Aesop, kill off anyone important. You get the 22 minutes of angst, but the writers never have to deal with it again. Long Lost Uncle Aesops don't sit well with shows that have loyal fandoms, and are incompatible with the Economy Cast. Please keep in mind that this trope isn't just the sudden appearance and disappearance of characters who would logically be significant; this trope involves characters who are billed as significant to the protagonists who appear, drop their Aesop, then go back into the aether. See also Compressed Vice (when the issue is inflicted on a regular for one episode), Remember the New Guy?, Forgotten Fallen Friend, New Neighbours as the Plot Demands. Gay Aesops tend to be this as well.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_111a44e	comment	Himitsu no Akko-chan, the original 1969 series, introduces into the small crew of friends of the schoolgirl Akko-chan a deaf-mute kid. He'll never be seen after episode 32, and his only role is apparently stir Akko-chan's compassion enough to wish on herself deaf-muteness to better understand him, only to start breaking apart when, unable to reverse her own wish, she finds herself unable to handle the condition her new friend was bearing. Upon imparting the main character the much needed Aesop, the kid abruptly vanishes, and he's never seen or talked about. Ever.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_2477688c	comment	A typical example from The Baby-Sitters Club series: Amelia, suddenly introduced as a close friend of Mary Anne, was never been mentioned before the book in which she's killed by a drunk driver to teach the moral of the story. The BSC used this a lot. A new baby-sitting client would be introduced at the beginning of the book, needing the services of the club, and naturally after a few sitting jobs the girls would realize something was up. The most pointed examples are Keep Out, Claudia!, dealing with a mother whose super-Aryanism would be comical if it wasn't so disconcerting, and Claudia and the Terrible Truth, where the girls learn that two boys are being physically abused by their father. The latter is one of the creepiest books in the entire series.

Cruella wins but, once she hears her mother announcing her intention to move there, undoes it all - no matter how much she loves money, it's not worth having to put up with her mother all the time. Once Cruella gets bold enough to say this to her mother, Malevola is unexpectedly proud of her for finally proving to be a De Vil, and makes Cruella her heiress anyway.

One episode features Wheeler's old friend, Trish, for a lesson about the wrongness of gang activity.

Mr. Gus, who has an extensive knowledge of magical beings, sets Uncle Grandpa straight by telling him that Steven's gem shield summoning is based on emotional clarity. When the Gems attack U.G., Steven, who has learned more about summoning his shield by defending U.G., tells them that they can't attack people just because you don't understand them, and that you should take time to listen to what the other person has to say.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_3e5de40b	comment	Scrubs: Scrubs takes place in a hospital, with a constant flow of patients, a setting almost tailor-made for introducing guest stars and Aesops. For some lessons, the emotional impact or context appropriateness of a random patient may not work for the Aesop so they'll say Remember the New Guy? and bring in a unmentioned family member or a hospital colleague who somehow never made it on camera. An interesting case is the patient trapped in an MRI machine with her face obscured. Cue the Aesop about taking chances for about the third time. Then they start dating and she appears in a later episode and they bring her into another plot and another Aesop by having her work as a social worker (or similar) who deals with patients. The two episodes could have easily been written for two different characters. And then she had a pill addiction, making it a threefer. Ryan Reynolds played J.D. and Turk's never-heard-of-before college roommate. Justified in that this was only halfway through the second season, but he's never heard of again despite the fact that the rest of the series has dozens of flashbacks to their college days, and despite his character being notable for accidentally telling Doctor Cox that Jordan's baby was his, which was a fairly significant plot point. Likewise, Doctor Cox in season 4 is given an old black best friend who Cox discovers has an autistic son, and promises to help out, but he is not seen again either (notably, Cox also passes him on to another old friend of his, whom we don't see at all, who specialises in helping autistic kids). It happens with their families too. Carla's brother has the distinction of lasting most of a season, but afterwards is never heard from again, not even to meet his baby niece; her sisters only make cameo appearances in a couple of episodes. Turk's brother gets one episode, and phones Turk in another confirming that he can make Turk's wedding (though as far as the audience can see, he doesn't). Their families do get mentions, but they seem to miss nearly every important occasion. Averted with J.D.'s brother Dan, who is a semi-recurring character, and Elliot's parents, who are mentioned frequently and appear on occasion. Justified with J.D.'s father, who was respectfully killed off thanks to The Character Died with Him, and Doctor Cox's sister, whom he simply doesn't like to talk about as she reminds him of their painful, abusive childhood. Also justified with Jordan's sister Dani, who was a recurring supporting character but vanished from the last seasons; this was mostly in-character. The Janitor likes to play with this trope. In one episode he puts on a fake mustache and denim jacket and tries to convince everyone that he is his own twin brother (nobody buys it); in another he pretends a nearby child is his son to make J.D. feel bad about insulting him. In a third he mentions his father died, causing J.D. to call him out by pointing out that he had met his father in a previous episode; the Janitor merely responds that "you met a man".

After Gregson returns, he discovers that one of his top female officers (who has also never appeared or been mentioned before) is leaving the force due to being sexually harassed by Dwyer.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_4f01368	comment	Static Shock: Apart from Static and Gear, most of the good Bang Babies simply stuck around long enough for us to learn their Special Problem, then disappeared into the ether. The show also had a rather anvilicious episode about school shootings, where Virgil and Richie befriend a boy who's badly bullied by a popular Jerk Jock. However, we have never seen these two before this episode and never see them again afterward, despite the latter's alleged popularity and the lengths Virgil and Richie go to befriend the former. There's also the fact that most school shooters in real life are morbid and unstable to begin with, not bullied kids pushed too far. There is an episode that reveals that Richie's father is racist and doesn't want him to bring his black best friend over. What gives this episode a touch of moral complexity is Richie's mother, who is not racist herself but still loves her husband.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_547f6bce	comment	Family Ties: Alex P. Keaton's Uncle Ned (played by Tom Hanks) appears twice; first as a fugitive who stole money from his company, and later as a raging alcoholic. The show addressed Teen Pregnancy, not by inflicting it on Mallory, but by bringing in Mallory's friend we've never seen before. Likewise, in another famed two-parter, Alex spends 40 minutes grieving over the sudden death of his close special friend... Whatshisname. Seriously, we'd never heard of him before, or ever would again. To a lesser extent, Season 3 featured brief appearances by "James" with the writers going to great lengths to try and convince the audience that he has been Alex's best friend/rival since childhood. Mallory would have a few of these episodes as well. A "beloved" aunt who was like a best friend to Mallory ends up dying. Another episode had Mallory dealing with the mother of a friend who committed suicide. Neither the aunt or friend were mentioned before or after their respective episodes. There was also an episode in which she was unsure of what to do when a character her parents' age whom she knew as "Uncle Arthur" (thankfully not an actual uncle) kissed her. He never showed up again either, although given what he did, it's not hard to imagine that the family cut off all contact with him.

One of the most overt examples was an early TNG with a race of drug addicts supplied by a race of providers. It falls short as an allegory of modern drug addiction as the addicted species were led to believe the drug was a treatment for a disease (which it technically was, but the providers neglected to tell the addicts that the disease had long since been wiped out and the only thing the drug was still treating was withdrawal symptoms, making the situation an addiction to prescription medicine prescribed by an unethical doctor who deliberately didn't warn his client about the risk of addiction).

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_8d814070	comment	MAS*H: In the first-season episode "Sometimes You Hear the Bullet", Hawkeye's happy-go-lucky best friend Tommy arrives just in time to get hit with the aforementioned noisy — and fatal — missile. Margaret's "best friend" from the army shows up in order to have a drinking problem so the writers can make An Aesop about alcoholism. This is despite the fact that the entire main cast drinks heavily; Hawkeye in particular is probably an alcoholic. Col. Potter has had more than one "old army buddy" show up, prove themselves incapable of leading their men, and thereby putting Col. Potter in an awkward situation where he is torn between friendship and his responsibility as an army officer. There is a slight subversion in the episode "Who Knew?" A nurse we never heard of before, whom we never saw on screen, is killed in order to give Hawkeye some character development and make him think about the way he treats women. Justified in that the entire point was that he never really got to know her, because he keeps himself emotionally distant from everybody.

Except that Robin's father Malcolm didn't die, and he's actually been wandering Sherwood all this time without ever bothering to help or get in contact with his own sons or the two orphaned children of the women he loved. He reappears to tell Robin and Guy that they need to work together in order to rescue their mutual half-brother Archer.

It's just as well that Pappy isn't ever seen again, as his rambling to Timmy's parents about their experiences causes Mrs. Turner to assume that Pappy has gone senile and forbids him from ever again being a viable alternative to having Vicky look after Timmy while his parents are away.

He comes to Earth to enlist the Titans to help him defeat some evil robotic aliens who, according to him, want to wipe all organic life. Unfortunately, he turns out to be a racist jerk who treats Starfire with contempt due to her species, calling her by the slur "Troq" , meaning "nothing" in her language. The rest of the Titans eventually find out about this and swiftly turn on Val-Yor. An aesop is dispensed about how being racist is bad and that some people will never change, and Val-Yor is never seen or heard from again after taking off back into space.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_c4282b71	comment	My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Griffon the Brush Off" has Gilda, a childhood friend of Rainbow Dash, who turns out to be a grump, a thief, and a bully. Eventually subverted in season 5's "The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone", where she makes another appearance. Pinkie Pie's phlegmatic sister Maud is introduced for the sole purpose of teaching the Mane Six that their shared love of Pinkie is reason enough for them to consider Maud a close friend, even though they share no common interests with her. Maud was mysteriously absent in the first Pinkie Pie fillyhood flashback as well. She does reappear in future episodes though. Fluttershy's brother shows up in one episode to teach the class "Don't be a freeloading tool" and promptly vanishes back into the void. Oddly, when he does appear in a later episode he's been reduced to Plucky Comic Relief and his genuine (if poor) attempt at holding down a job isn't enough to keep him from being fired. Rainbow Dash's parents are finally introduced for the sole purpose of showing that you should never take your parents for granted, no matter how embarrassing they can be.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_d7aab7c1	comment	Sailor Moon: Sailor Moon did this a lot, since the characters often doubled as a Victim of the Week. It's especially jarring as it's occasionally suggested the leads have trouble making friends and seem to have no real social life outside of their small group, despite meeting and getting along with people fairly quickly each episode. Urawa (Greg in the dub) shows up as a Victim of the Week who learns not to be fatalistic or cheat on tests just because he can see the future with perfect accuracy; he's one of the rare few to get a second appearance, but after that he drops off the face of the earth. It's especially weird because the senshi are later shown to keep in touch with villains they've healed, and Urawa is lucky enough to keep his magical powers even after his crystal's been removed. Who knows how many problems they might have averted if they kept a precognitive on the B-squad?

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_e293455a	comment	Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In the episode "Lie To Me" from season two, there is Ford, Buffy's "best friend" from her old high school in L.A. Ford is dying of a brain tumor, and bargains with Spike to be turned into a vampire in exchange for Buffy. Justified in that Buffy had moved a year ago, presumably leaving some her friends behind, and she'd spent the summer break back there, offscreen. In "Killed By Death", Buffy exhibits a phobic reaction to being in the hospital, and we learn that it's because of her cousin Celia's death when they were kids. They were close, and Buffy was traumatized as a result of watching her die. While some of this trauma is legitimately resolved in the episode (by finding and killing the invisible monster that killed Celia), the lack of mention of Celia before or after makes the whole thing seem to come out of nowhere. It is particularly jarring because Buffy spends a great deal of time visiting the hospital in Season Five, and shows no phobia beyond an appropriate reaction to the immediate circumstances. Nor does the First Evil ever manifest in Celia's form, which would seem an obvious way to get under Buffy's skin if the writers still remembered the character. Granted, the actress playing Celia - a long-deceased child character - could not conceivably return, since the First Evil was only prominent five years later. It might've worked in the Season 3 episode "Amends", but then the First was focusing more on Angel than Buffy. Buffy subverts this in the episode "The Puppet Show," however. When Emily (the dancer) is killed, Cordelia claims that she has lost "like, my best friend" - although Emily had never been mentioned on the show before. A subversion because Cordelia refers to Emily incorrectly as "Emma" during this speech and Xander calls her on never really having known the girl.

Long-Lost Uncle Aesop / int_ea4f62db	comment	Family Guy: In "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater," Lois's Aunt Margaritte comes to visit right at the beginning of the episode, but drops dead even before completing her first line, right there at the front door. On the commentary track, Seth MacFarlane explains that this scene was a direct parody of characters like this. Family Guy has also played this trope straight on a few occasions. Lois's brother appears in one episode as a maniac (also doubling as a Monster of the Week) before never being seen again aside from a parody of The Silence of the Lambs where he was brought out of jail to help hunt a killer who was murdering kids at a fat camp. Lois's sister shows up in one episode to have a baby before never appearing again, though this has been averted since Season 9 where she married Mayor West. Brenda Quagmire from the episode "The Story of Brenda Q" counts as well. Though she previously made a cameo in "Jerome is the New Black", when Brian sees her, beaten, and mistakenly thinks it's a woman Quagmire had a wild time with; Quagmire then explains that she gets abused by her boyfriend, who then shows up to beat her. The episode "Peter's Sister" introduces Karen, who is... well, guess. The justification is that Peter never mentions her because she used to bully him when they were kids. At the end of the episode, Peter is informed that she is in the hospital and he refuses to have his blood type checked to donate blood for her. So it's likely she will never be seen again. In another episode "Papa Has A Rollin' Son", Joe's father Bud, who has never been seen or mentioned, comes to Quahog with a Jerkass attitude towards people with disabilities... until he finds out that Joe is paralyzed and in a wheelchair himself. Bud immediately has a change of heart, after which he's never seen or mentioned again.

Neither of Dexter's friends were seen again, but Lucky's character design was a Reused Character Design for Dexter's uncle in "That Magic Moment". In any case, the rest of the characters couldn't be used for Values Dissonance reasons. The episode was mainly An Aesop on making fun of people due to accents. Dexter's "Magic Uncle" Ferguson "Fergle" O'Reilly, who appeared in "That Magic Moment" (and voiced by Mark Hamill) to teach magic to Dexter and Dee Dee.
