The tendency of writers to have a character repeat dialogue spoken to them that the audience wasn't able to hear. This often happens with telephone conversations, or when the person speaking the unheard dialogue is The Unintelligible, speaks a different language, or is The Silent Bob. Sometimes this trope is justified when a character is surprised by the information, or are unsure that they heard correctly (or at least want to verify that they have), or when they need to relay that information to a third party (often cops) without the listener being aware of it. Done poorly, however, it can very easily sound ridiculous when characters are repeating what is essentially blatant exposition. See also Let Me Get This Straight.... Also, see Repeat to Confirm as one way this can be justified. If you can hear both sides, it's Parrot Exposition. A close relative of Voice for the Voiceless. Compare Sounding It Out for this trope applied to written documents. See also Translator Buddy. |

Mister Rogers' Neighborhood used this often to make sure the kids understood what was going on. He'd even double up on the effect - first repeating back into the phone whatever the (unheard by the audience) person had said, per this trope, and then pausing the phone conversation to explain to the viewers. E.g. (to the phone) "Hi, Dad" (to the viewers) "It's my father." | |

Adults in Rose is Rose tend to do this with Mimi, even though her approximated speech is usually close enough for readers to tell what she's trying to say. This might be more of an attempt at realism, though, as parents often do this with children who are learning how to talk (see below). Lately, they've stopped doing this every time, though. | |

In The Serial Murders, a notorious feature of the Show Within a Show The Northern Barstows is that whenever something happens that the writers couldn't afford, couldn't fit, or just couldn't be bothered to show on screen, they deliver the necessary exposition by writing a scene in which Ben Barstow receives a phone call telling him all about it — or rather, stands with a phone to his ear "repeating" the information for the benefit of the audience. "Morrie's Boom-Boom Room Hot Spot has burned down t' the ground? In a mysterious fire t' police say might well be arson? Eeh, I'm right astonished!" | |

In the Heroes season 4 episode "The Art of Deception," Claire hurriedly communicates time-sensitive information to an empath by touch. The empath says out loud everything that Claire communicated silently, and thus takes just as long as it would have taken for Claire to say it in the first place. | |

Although this trope does not appear as such in Lassie (closest to it is something along the lines of "I think she's trying to tell us something" followed by Lassie leading the characters to where the trouble is), many television parodies and Stand-Up Comedy acts about Lassie do invoke this trope. | |

Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People: In the second episode there are two layers of this - Strong Mad says something, then The Cheat (who is actually tasked as an interpreter) repeats it in his strange language, then Strong Bad (who can apparently understand The Cheat but not Strong Mad) repeats it in plain English for the benefit of the player. The post-game sequence features the following discussion: If you talk to The Cheat in the pandimensional photo booth, he "speaks" for a very, very long time. Strong Bad then says he couldn't handle it and asks The Paper to take note. The Paper comes down with a readable tutorial to the photo booth printed on it, which is apparently what The Cheat said. |

Beyond Silence: Lara, a hearing child of deaf parents, is given to saying both what she's signing to her parents and what her parents are signing back to her. This stands out most prominently in a scene where her father is telling a traumatic story from his childhood, and she is reciting it back as he tells it. Presumably the idea was to minimize the amount of subtitles that the German theater audience had to read. | |

The Daily Show: Jon Stewart uses a variant of this trope with an earpiece/microphone to talk with non-existent producers. Congressman Bill Thomas participated in a faux phone call skit during a televised press conference explaining a Social Security plan. It was promptly mocked mercilessly where the MST3K-style "other side of the conversation" was dubbed in. |

The Big Bang Theory can sometimes be pretty guilty of this. Due to his Selective Mutism, when a woman is in the room Raj has to resort to whispering in Howard's ear to communicate. It's often justified, because, in addition to the audience, the other characters want to hear, too, though there are some cases where the comment was meant almost exclusively for Howard and there's no reason to repeat what he said. Howard being Howard, it's not always the case that he's accurately repeating what Raj says. Raj sometimes gets visibly annoyed at what Howard chooses to repeat or how he phrases it. | |

Given the setting, it's no surprise that messages in Morse code pop up fairly often on The Wild Wild West. Since there are few, if any, people in the show's audience who can follow such messages, one of the characters will usually give a running translation into spoken English for no apparent reason. | |

Most exchanges between Rocket and Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy involve Rocket reiterating what his partner said, because all the audience can hear is "I am Groot." This is toned down in the second movie where they mostly let you infer what Groot said via context, or else he's explicitly translating for somebody (usually Yondu) who doesn't understand Groot. | |

Each Metal Gear game starting with Metal Gear Solid, by tradition, ends with a phone call. While we could hear both Snake and Otacon in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (not that it made anything less confusing), the other two games involve Double Agent Revolver Ocelot talking to the person he was really working for, in a way which involves a great deal of this. Part of this could be down to the speech habits of every other character in the games, however. This can be pretty hilarious, too; Ocelot tends to admit to war crimes and national secrets out loud. You'd think the Patriots could come up with, like, a code. Interestingly, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots avoided this, with Snake and Otacon talking together in person, and it's not confusing at all. | |

In the Fallout: New Vegas DLC "Old World Blues", the other members of the Think Tank (disembodied brains in robot bodies) do this for Dr. 8, whose voice modulator has been damaged such that he can only speak in unintelligible computer code. If the Player Character is appropriately skilled enough to understand him when speaking one-on-one, the options on the Dialogue Tree are like this as well. | |

Avoided in Stargate SG-1. For example, in Windows of Opportunity, Dr. Jackson picks up the phone: "Hello?" (pause) "Okay - we're on our way." (hangs up; to others in room) "Sam has something." This also avoids TV Telephone Etiquette - and it's perfectly informative without being redundant or unnatural. | |

However, on two occasions they speak within earshot of Koopa and reveal useful information about the stolen robo-suit he's using, which he then turns to his advantage. Except the second time Nerdnik lies so Koopa ends up defeating himself. | |

In a non-telephone example, this is often seen in many of The Office (US)'s confessionals with the characters. It's common for them to repeat what the in-universe's showrunners asked them before answering or reacting.

In Death Note, the instructions to use the eponymous Death Note is written in English (since Ryuk understands that English is an international language, thus the contents would be understood by a larger pool of potential users). Thus, when Light first picks up the Death Note, he translates the title so the Japanese audience can understand - "Death Note? [in English] As in a notebook of death [in Japanese]?". This is amusingly pointless in the English localization, as Light just rephrases it instead. | |

He repeats what everyone says in a way that SHOULD give him away and Caboose STILL doesn't realize he's what he's talking about. This quote is about half of their conversation. Season 14, "Fifty Shades of Red": The interview montage shows each answer given by the candidates in order — first candidate 1, then candidate 2, then candidate 3, then back to candidate 1 for the next question, etc. The interviewer's questions are left out, but candidate 1 repeats each one in some way, providing context for both his answer and the others'. |

Part of the reason is that her son Sheridan is The Unseen, and thus her repetitions are all we ever hear from him. It's also intentional in-universe, provided it's a phone call from her sister Violet (she's the one with the Olympic sized swimming pool and room for a pony) and she's got guests around. | |

Early in Independence Day, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff does a variation while in a meeting with the President. After receiving a message by phone from an AWACS pilot investigating one of the newly-arrived UFOs, he turns on the speakerphone and orders the pilot to repeat everything he just said, so the President can get the message first-hand. | |

Peanuts had to make extended use of this as all adults had no dialog, including all teachers (Peppermint Patty: "You want me to do the second problem on the blackboard, ma'am?"). Snoopy also does it with Woodstock and the other birds. It's handled slightly better in the comic than in the cartoons, generally speaking. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: SpongeBob does this when talking to his pet snail Gary, frequently in the series. Although whether he understands him or is making assumptions is up for debate. It might be he can understand him; in "Can You Spare a Dime?", Gary appears to call Squidward a freeloader which SpongeBob denies. Of course, Gary turns out to be right. | |

Stitch! has this happen in Episode 14: Yuna is trying to get Tarou to eat healthily and asks him what he normally eats. He whispers the answer in her ear, causing her to exclaim that he can't possibly grow big and strong on such a diet. Subverted in the dub. Although Tarou still whispers his favorite food, it is just about possible to hear him say that he likes to eat ketchup and candy. Yuna's response is still the same, however. |

A particularly ludicrous example occurred in the Doctor Who first season story "The Keys of Marinus." A police guard, Ayden, receives a telephone call on speakerphone. When he answers, the first thing he says is "Don't say any more, there are people here. I'll take it on the personal." He then lifts up the receiver and tells the party on the other end "Alright, go ahead." He then proceeds to repeat, aloud, everything the other person says. The scene even ends with him telling the other party "Well listen closely and I'll tell you what you may have to do", implying he is about to reveal the plot that he was concerned the "people here" would have heard the other party saying in the first place. | |

Pokémon: The Series: A particularly funny example... Also, when the Team Rocket trio's Meowth, who can speak "human" as well as fully understand everything fellow Mons say, feels compelled to respond to almost anything any other Pokémon says by saying "You're telling me..." and then evidently repeating exactly what the creature said. There's one time when he admits he's somewhat embellishing what the other 'mon says as he translates to Jessie and James, because he doesn't quite understand the dialect. There's another time when an exchange between Lombre and Wobbuffet winds up being a (suspiciously well-rehearsed!) standup comedy routine so bad that Meowth refuses to translate it all together. Mewtwo does this fairly frequently when communicating with his clones or with large groups of Pokémon. Slightly forgivable due to him being fairly introspective and thoughtful. |

During typical story scenes in Ensemble Stars!, the Player Character is never seen speaking. (Though players can choose dialogue options during Produce Events.) However, the characters react as if she does speak, often by repeating her words back to her. Early on these were typically short statements, but as the plot increased in complexity and the player character gained more of a substantial personality, some of the conversations start to come across like they must be rather repetitive. | |

South Park: Happens frequently with Kenny, despite the fact that he has been at least somewhat intelligible since Season 4. This also happened in the episode after Isaac Hayes, Chef's voice actor, had quit. In order to work around it, all of his lines were cut together from stock sound, which limited his vocabulary. Taken to the extreme in "Obama Wins!", when Butters' face swells due to an allergic reaction: |

Done in a revealingly inconsistent way in the Enemy at the Door episode "V for Victory". In one scene, Kluge takes a telephone report from an underling with a minimum of repetition, then immediately discusses the report with a colleague, letting the audience in on the details that way. In a later scene in the same episode, Kluge receives another telephone report with no colleagues handy, and this time the trope is played straight. | |

Wednesday: Happens every time Thing communicates with another character. While it's purely for the audience's benefit when communicating with Wednesday or another of the Adams Family, it's justified for Wednesday's friends. Since they haven't known Thing very long, they can't easily tell what Thing is saying and thus repeat everything to make sure they've got it correct. | |
