Misunderstandings are a big part of comedy. People hear part of a conversation, or hear it without context, and, well, Hilarity Ensues. Non Voyage Party is another trope from the comic misunderstandings family. Alice is throwing a party for Bob to celebrate some accomplishment or special occasion of Bob's. Of course Alice and company want it to be a happy surprise, so their circle of friends keeps it on the hushhush. Unfortunately Bob, overhearing part of the plans or seeing his friends sneak around without context, ends up with the mistaken idea that Alice is really trying to get rid of him and is throwing a party to celebrate his imminent departure. Of course the trope usually resolves with the confused party getting the story straight and being embarrassed and/or amused that they could have been so far off from the truth of the matter, and "Everybody Laughs" Ending closes it out as the silly misunderstanding is put to rest. Even in scenarios where commonplace technology would usually prevent this sort of thing from happening, malfunction or human error can be expected to keep the trope on track. If Alice sends a group text to the circle of friends about their plans, except for Bob, one of the friends will reply to it but forget to omit Bob's name so he gets one mysterious text, and no response from the friend who sent it and now realizes their mistake. Not to be confused with It's a Costume Party, I Swear!. Subtrope of Not What It Looks Like. |

When Eleanor visits in Three's Company, Jack thinks the party Janet and Chrissy are throwing is to celebrate her return (and thus, his departure.) He doesn't know it's really a party congratulating him for passing his cooking exam. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. In "Party of One", Pinkie misapprehends the other ponies blowing off her after-birthday party for Gummy and after seeing them sneak around, avoid her, and give her obvious, feeble lies to explain why they can't come to Gummy's afterparty, jumps to the conclusion that they no longer want to be her friends. This upsets her greatly, and she's surprised when her friends explain that the truth is they were throwing her a surprise birthday party. | |

Inverted in Frasier. The Cheers gang holds a going-away party for Cliff, who's set to retire to a tropical locale. But Cliff, so touched by the things said about him during the party, instead decides to stay in Boston, much to Carla's chagrin. | |
