A character, usually in film or TV, is in a place with two or more other characters. This character asks others to leave in order to have a private conversation with one or more characters in the room. The banished characters are rarely offended at being excluded and dutifully leave when asked. This is sometimes ironic because the asker does not trust the banished characters enough to include them, but does trust that the banished characters will be understanding about being asked to leave. This trope is extremely common in media, serving a necessary narrative purpose, but relatively rare in real life. In a story, it is common for characters Alice, Bob, and Carol to be in the same place. If Alice needs to be alone with Bob for dramatic effect, i.e., the writer needs to have Alice and Bob talk without Carol overhearing, then having Alice banish Carol is often the most efficient means to this end. Also, it is common for Alice to want a private word with Bob so as not to embarrass Bob by dressing him down in front of others. In some cases, the characters who are asked to leave may become offended and refuse, or comply but become resentful. Thus, the trope becomes a way to generate tension and conflict among the characters. Another variation on this trope occurs when Alice asks Bob to leave so that she can be alone, sometimes to die in peace. It may also happen in Law Procedurals after an unexpected development in a trial: the lawyer whose case was adversely affected will say something like "Your Honor, may I have a moment to confer with my client?" and then try to plea-bargain or make some other major shift in legal strategy. Yet another variation is for something to go badly wrong in the private room and set up a Locked Room Mystery. If the narrative focus follows the banished characters while the asker and someone else collaborate on a scheme offscreen, and later that scheme is successful, that overlaps with Unspoken Plan Guarantee. This trope is very similar to Take Five. The difference is that in Request for Privacy, Alice explicitly tells Carol that she wants Carol to leave so she can talk to Bob alone. In Take Five, Alice does not explicitly tell Carol she needs to leave, and may make a phony request for Carol, e.g., asking her to check on something that doesn't really need to be checked on. See also Talk About That Thing and Not in Front of the Kid. Compare Stepping Out for a Quick Cup of Coffee, where the departing character leaves on their own initiative to give the others privacy.

Invoked and played with in Three Kingdoms, where on several occasions a character may meaningfully glance at other people present when addressing someone. Depending on who is involved, one of three things may happen: a) the other characters may take the hint and excuse themselves note An example can be seen when a subordinate of Liu Bei urgently interrupts a conversation between Zhuge Liang (Liu's chancellor) and his brother Zhuge Jin (who serves Liu's rival warlord Sun Quan and is visiting as an emissary). The subordinate meaningfully glances at Zhuge Jin, who politely excuses himself and walks a short distance away so the subordinate can deliver his report without being overheard. , b) the person being addressed assures the speaker they can be trusted note When a messenger arrives with a message for Cao Cao, his advisor Xun Yu moves to excuse himself. Cao tells him to stay and commands the messenger to deliver his message. or c) the addressee orders the others to leave note When a group of conspirators meet up to discuss an assassination attempt against Cao Cao, they dismiss their servants to speak privately. | |

You can almost play a drinking game with how often characters on Arrow ask "May I/ We have the room?" in order to clear the room of characters unnecessary for the current scene without having to come up with a good reason for the unnecessary characters to leave on their own. | |

Paranoia. This happened several times at the end of regular mission briefings in adventures. The Yellow Clearance Black Box Blues Mission 2. Doss-V-DAN dismisses the rest of the mission group, tells the team leader that the opposition has Mind Control powers, and gives him a Suicide Pill. Mission 3. All of the other Troubleshooters are dismissed from the room so the briefing officer Byre-B-WER can tell the team leader about the fake weapons that have been planted in a traitor's gear as a Secret Test. Vapors Never Shoot Back Mission 3. Briefing officer Gore-V-DAL has the rest of the Troubleshooters leave so he can give the team leader advice on how to carry out the mission and tell him the passcode to an armored door. |

Return of the Jedi: When Darth Vader brings Luke to Emperor Palpatine's throne room on the Death Star, Palpatine orders the guards to leave. His Strike Me Down with All of Your Hatred! ploy to turn Luke to the dark side would presumably have been less effective with the heavily armed Imperial Guardsmen present. | |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In "Once More Unto the Breach", Worf approaches Martok on the bridge of his ship to discuss a subject unpleasant to Martok: giving the elderly Kor a command in the Dominion War. Worf has barely started talking when Martok bellows, "Clear the bridge!" to get rid of everyone else, before privately explaining the reason for his dislike of Kor: Kor personally rejected him from the Military Academy for being a commoner, scuttling his entire career as a warrior until he was able to earn a battlefield commission. | |

The Office (US): At the climax of "Did I Stutter?", Michael asks everyone in the room to leave following a "The Reason You Suck" Speech from Stanley. Once they're alone, Michael tearfully asks Stanley why he keeps insulting him, to which Stanley responds that he doesn't respect him. Michael accepts this after regaining his composure but asserts his authority by telling him not to do it again because he's his boss. Stanley agrees, implying a newfound amount of respect, albeit a small one. | |

God of War Ragnarök: Odin regularly dismisses his fellow Aesir gods and servants whenever he feels the need to confide something of great importance to Atreus or discuss relevant topics, most notably the Rift under the Great Lodge and Mask tied to it.

In the Hitman World of Assassination Trilogy most of your targets will have at least one bodyguard trailing them at all times, and many Mission Stories set up an opportunity to have you and the target hold a private conversation as they dismiss their guards (or just dismiss themselves for whatever reason) to give you a chance to kill them unnoticed. | |

Dan and Gurgs happen to be in her chambers as this happens, so she asks them to leave. The camera cuts to outside her chambers, where you can hear a guttural scream of rage. | |

Subverted in The Obelisk Gate: Essun tells The Leader Ykka that they need to speak alone about a sensitive topic. Ykka refuses: first, to emphasize that she is the sole authority in the community; second, to show that she trusts the advisors who are present; and third, because the topic has to do with the heavily reviled Functional Magic they both possess, which she's trying to de-stigmatize by being open and up-front about it.

Game of Thrones: King Robert trusts Ned Stark to the point that he gives his most important commands when nobody is looking around, presumably because he takes for granted that his subjects won't question his decision even without witnesses. He names Ned his Hand in the Crypts of Winterfell halfway through the pilot and, a few episodes and a Hunting "Accident" later in "You Win or You Die", he asks him to write down his will before kicking the bucket. This proves to be the downfall of both characters: Robert's wife exploits the lack of witnesses to tear "Ned's shield" in pieces and arrest Ned before he would have told the truth about her children's real heritage. In the episode "Baelor", Catelyn Stark meets with Lord Walder Frey to discuss an alliance with her son Robb's army. Initially, the discussion is held in front of the incredibly large Frey family, with several of his descendants attempting to butt in. Catelyn requests to talk to Lord Frey only, and he orders the rest of his family to leave, who immediately hurry out of the room. Yara shows her control over the unruly Ironborn when she dismisses her men with a quiet, "Leave us", so she can give her brother a What the Hell, Hero? speech. On a couple of occasions Lord Tywin Lannister dismisses his underlings, but as his son Tyrion gets up to leave adds a quiet, "Not you." |

Deryni: In King Kelson's Bride, when Liam's uncle Matyas and the Torenthi ambassador Rasoul arrive in Kelson's court to escort him back to Torenth, Liam (who is fourteen and serving as a royal squire) expresses some anxiety. Kelson has Matyas and Rasoul conducted to the withdrawing room and takes the boy aside with Prince Nigel to find out what the problem is. Turns out there are three: Liam doesn't particularly want to rule Torenth, is uncomfortable facing an adult role and he wants to get his knightly accolade from Nigel. After some reassurances and a proposal to extend Liam's tenure as a simple squire for a bit longer, the three go into the withdrawing room with Matyas, Rasoul, and Morgan. | |

He awkwardly asks her to leave the room so he can ask Nina, which she's annoyed by at first, but gladly leaves after catching on. She returns as soon as they're done with the conversation, telling them that they're adorable, and she's starving. | |
