Retirony	comment	AKA: "Died with X days left until retirement". Retirony is a portmanteau of retirement and Irony, though how much of the latter it has is up for debate. Retirony is a way to make the audience feel sorry for a character's death without having to actually give him more than ten minutes of screen time. Anybody in a dangerous job who's only a few days away from retirement or flying one last mission before going home to marry their childhood sweetheart is absolutely doomed to death by Retirony, whether that takes the form of a cold-blooded criminal, an ace German fighter pilot or a great big robotic monster. Just alluding to the existence of a character's family or showing a photo of them is enough for the audience to get the idea: the guy has a life outside of being a Red Shirt. In the rare case that an exception is made, it is usually because the character is "going home to" a child, especially one his wife gave birth to after he shipped out — perhaps Improbable Infant Survival has a proxy effect? If enough of this happens, they essentially get "promoted" up to Mauve Shirt, or leave for good, alive. Retirony is rarely played straight anymore since it has become such a well-known and joked about trope. Probably not intentional on part of the authors, but one way to interpret Retirony is to think of how fitting it is, as a fate for the Cosmic Plaything. Suppose that God or Fate is a jerk who nevertheless cares a lot about whatever cause the "retiree" character is working for. In that case, it fits the purposes of fate perfectly to let him survive until it's time to retire, but as soon as he's got no more victories to win, then he's outlived his usefulness and there's no reason not to let him suffer if that's more fun to watch. Compare Died on Their Birthday, where death ironically coincides with another life milestone. See also Tempting Fate, Fatal Family Photo, If We Get Through Thisâ€¦, Nothing Can Stop Us Now!, Nothing Can Save Us Now and Resignations Not Accepted. Related to Yank the Dog's Chain. Contrast Crusading Widow, where the one to die is the cop's family. Also contrast First Day from Hell, where someone's new career starts on a very bad note instead of ending on one. For the equivalent in material goods, see some variants of Action Insurance Gag. Not to be confused with retroactive Irony. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

He shoots at enemies rather slowly, and can take a lot of damage (and refills his health every floor) but is mortal. His description mentions that he's close to retirement, and talking to him enough will confirm that he's three weeks away. Even if you manage to make him survive, he will keel over and die at the door of the High Dragun. This gets averted in Exit the Gungeon, where the cop has no hit box at all.

Retirony / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons has done this quite a few times (enough to list on a webpage): The first example is the Trope Naming exchange in the page quote from "Homer vs. Dignity". Police chief Clancy Wiggum doesn't have a retirement fund because he and his wife expect this to happen to him. The couple gets upset at a financial planner raising the scenario that Clancy lives to retirement. Parodied in a McBain movie seen in "Saturdays of Thunder", where McBain's sidekick Scoie talks of his retirement and shows a picture of his boat (christened "Live-4-Ever") seconds before he interrupts an assassination attempt on McBain. In "Homer to the Max", Wiggum's police car gets crushed by a tree at a protest rally, one day before the car would be retired. In "Natural Born Kissers", a police dog one day from retirement takes a sniff of Homer's clothing and bolts in fear. A Spinning Paper that shows up later in the episode mentions as a sidenote that the dog is "barely clinging to life". In "Homer and Apu", Homer accidentally smashes a giant novelty hat containing a hidden camera; the hat was one day from retirement. A technical subversion as, despite being thrown to the floor, the camera still functions enough to implicate Apu for selling expired foods. In "Marge Simpson in: "Screaming Yellow Honkers"", the prisoners that Marge frees when she accidentally runs her car into the prison walls are one day away from total rehabilitation. "The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons" opens with a man setting up a sign outside the Springfield Civic Center that reads "Tonight: CHARITY BACHELOR AUCTION // Tomorrow: I RETIRE, YA BASTARDS!". As soon as the man has finished adjusting the exclamation point, he loses his footing and falls off the ladder, landing with a loud thud.

Retirony / int_3c40bfef	comment	Sent up (like many cliches) in The Tower of Druaga. In the first episode, as they face the Crimson Knight, Black Knight (), poor, faceless armoured Utu completely out of the blue says he will go home and get married "just after they finish the battle with Crimson Knight, Black Knight." This despite having gone through many battles before this, without saying anything. He then charges straight at the Black/Crimson Knight by himself and gets skewered. Then, to show there is no possibility that he could have survived, there's a Say My Name moment (UTUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!) as well as an on-screen text which says "Utu has died". And again, later in the episode, after the earlier-defeated Crimson Knight, Black Knight saves the protagonist because he's The Only One Allowed to Defeat You, the Crimson Knight, Black Knight makes the mistake of saying the exact same thing. The caption "taboo words" flashes on the screen, and he is killed the next moment by dragonfire. Finally, in the protagonist's final confrontation with the Big Bad, the Big Bad says it too. It's referenced again in the very last episode of the last season, a sort of lampshading of the previous lampshading. Right before the big final battle, at a point where we could legitimately expect a main character to die in a non-joke scene (this being the final episode, and after some have already died earlier), Utu actually proposes to Fatina. Notably, she turns him down immediately, which is probably directly responsible for the fact that everyone survived that battle. Smart move.

Retirony / int_49aa2aa4	comment	Ace Combat seems to have a lot of this. In Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War, PJ announces that he's going to propose to his girlfriend after the last mission — he even bought flowers. Guess who happens to brake right into the path of the final boss's laser as he tried to move back into combat flight formation. Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War has an occurrence right after your squad rolls over the "impregnable" enemy fortress, where they would have been a mere two missions away from finishing the game if it wasn't for a third-enemy spy organization convincing their (now-usurped) government that they're traitors. Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation has it up the wazoo with Shamrock. During the Liberation of Gracemeria (the endgame), he talks about how he's going to introduce you to his family, going so far as reminding you to bring flowers for his daughter. When it's revealed that his family was killed during the operation, in the final mission, he goes all suicidal and flies right into a Death Star trench run-style alley to get important mission data. He gets hit several times and isn't seen to bail out. Subverted in that he doesn't die, but is now stuck in a wheelchair. When it comes to Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown, we continue the long tradition with Strider 3 Jaeger, who mentions telling his son about your wacky adventures across the Usean continent so often that he doesn't so much put up death flags as build a bunker out of them, nearly to the point of invoking the trope. Somehow, Jaeger actually survives the entire story, despite the final boss fight - and the post-Lighthouse intermission leading up to it - being lethal for a very high number of friendlies, including a few named ones, and this is not a game that has shied away from killing off allies you're attached to. Apparently, that bunker was tough enough to survive his blatant tempting of fate. Then again, his son, according to Word of Kono, is none other than fairly major character Erich Jaeger of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere fame, so perhaps his survival is justified.

Better yet, an ever-growing group of treasure hunters is doing all the work for him in finding the loot. Unfortunately, he learns that his pension has been cut down to a pittance, and, seeing no other choice, absconds with the briefcase full of cash himself. One madcap chase later, Culpeper ends up publicly humiliated, grievously injured, scorned by his wife and daughter, and facing substantial jail time. The brutal kicker is that while Culpeper was absconding with the cash, his boss was successfully negotiating his pension back, making every one of his illegal actions unnecessary.

Guess what happens? He freaks out after Daveth dies in the Joining, pulls a knife on the far-more-experienced Duncan, and gets killed in self-defense. And you later learn that Wardens don't get to live long enough to retire anyway.

In the first game, a scientist in Peak 15 — a research facility beset by acid-spitting bug-like aliens — bemoans the fact that her contract was up just when the bugs attacked. And then there's the crewman in the Crew Quarters of the ship talking to a friend for the first few missions about his newborn daughter and his wife living on a Terminus colony called New Canton before it's hit by the Collectors. However, it turns out the crewman was able to arrange his family to be moved to the safety of Earth, so it seems to be subverted. And then the entire crew's abducted, and it's up to the player whether or not they'll let this man see his family... In Mass Effect 3, Mordin muses about retiring, relaxing on a beach, and maybe collecting seashells. When Shepard replies that he'd go crazy from boredom within five minutes, he quips back that maybe he'll run tests on the seashells. Needless to say, unless you followed a particular chain of events in the two previous games, he's not going to get a chance to run those tests on the seashells — more likely, he either dies curing the krogan genophage, or trying to after Shepard shoots him in the back to stop him. Even if you did convince him to not follow up on the Genophage, he is forced to spend the rest of his days trying to undo the sabotage he did on the cure. Even Shepard isn't immune to this one. At the end of 3, Shepard may indicate in several conversations that s/he's getting pretty burnt out by having to save the galaxy, and is thinking of packing it in, and settling down with their love interest. And in four out of five endings, they die to stop the Reapers.

Just before he can pronounce them man and wife, a red alert sounds, forcing them to abort the ceremony. The rest of the episode deals with the Enterprise battling a Romulan ship. At the end of the episode, Kirk asks if any of the crew were killed. It turns out that everyone on the ship survived — except the guy who was about to get married. In "Relics" from Star Trek: The Next Generation, it turns out that this was Scotty's fate. He was on his way to a retirement colony when his ship crashed on a Dyson Sphere. Scotty ended up surviving by suspending himself in a transporter beam for nearly seventy years until he was rescued by the Enterprise-D. In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, O'Brien is brought to trial by the Cardassians, who are framing him and trying to tie him to the Maquis.

In the finale, he would Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence so he never gets to enjoy it. In Star Trek: Voyager, Joe Carey (the engineer who was shuffled aside in favor of B'Elanna Torres) would disappear for episodes — and seasons — at a time, only making appearances in flashback or alternate-reality episodes. In the late-seventh season episode "Friendship One", he shows up again, lamenting that he's one nacelle away from completing a model of Voyager, as well as discussing his family. He is then killed on an away mission by the alien-of-the-week. Interestingly, Carey is the final on-screen casualty from Voyager in the series — the crew makes it back home just a couple of episodes later. In Star Trek: Discovery, Saru is on one last mission as part of the Discovery crew before he retires from Starfleet to become an Ambassador for the Federation as well as marry Ni'Var President T'Rina.

The straightest example in the film is the story of George and Fred, two lifelong best friends who are looking forward to retiring together and spending time with their families. Unfortunately, George (who had been feeling unwell and decided to come to work instead of seeing a doctor) had a heart attack while operating heavy machinery, causing an accident and killing Fred.

This one is justified by the fact that they are all prisoners in a giant, sentient, psychopathic castle which thinks it has a sense of humor; it is entirely possible that announcing how close you are to freedom there could directly get you killed, and the other prisoners aren't much better; there's no need to give them a new reason to kill you. Carson von Mekkhan inverts the trope: he retired three days before his place of work was attacked and blown up. His replacement — who was, tragically, his son — died instead.

The player character is tasked with assassinating a notorious Legion commander who has spent the majority of his career being a thorn in the Dark Brotherhood's side but has just retired and is now on some kind of holiday. The Dark Brotherhood will not let him have this victory over them, so you go and catch up with him even after he is retired. Variation in Skyrim: Kodlak Whitemane wants to cure himself of his lycanthropy before he dies so he can go to Sovngarde. He sends the player on a quest to help prepare the ritual. While (s)he's away, the Silver Hand assaults Jorrvaskr, and, naturally, Kodlak is the only casualty.

There's a sequence where, whenever a soldier is confronted by an infernal, it abruptly cuts to a flashback of what the soldier's life was, with typical applications of the trope, followed by their unceremonious death. It's even Double Subverted when one soldier appears to survive because his only happy memories were promising himself to buy a sneaker, just to get killed immediately after. And then, just to stick it to this trope even further, it's averted completely when the one new character we had gotten to know is killed just as suddenly, without a happy flashback to go along with it.

Retirony / int_bf09bf33	comment	Arrowverse: In the Arrow episode "11:59", Laurel considers giving up being a vigilante to become the DA, and decides to go on "one last mission" to stop Damian Darhk from escaping prison. She's stabbed by Darhk in the riot, and and dies in the hospital shortly after. Played with, in that while she's in the hospital she decides she can't give up being the Black Canary as it "makes her feel alive inside". During the Crisis on Earth-X crossover, Martin Stein and Jefferson Jackson consider breaking up Firestorm so that Stein can leave the Legends to be with his family after the birth of his grandson. However, he gets shot during their escape from Earth-X and accepts his death to save Jax's life. Legends of Tomorrow: Hinted at in the episode "Romeo v Juliet: Dawn of Justness", given that Ray is doing "one last mission" before he leaves to marry Nora, as it would tie into the episode's title and central theme. Thankfully averted, and Ray and Nora survive.

Retirony / int_c090a117	comment	In Wing Commander: The Kilrathi Saga, Elizabeth "Shadow" Norwood is close to retirement when the Kilrathi kill her. Indeed, as soon as she mentions that she's retiring next month a Genre Savvy player knows exactly what's coming. If Paladin dies in the first game, Shotglass laments that he was a month away from retirement. Canonically averted; he takes up a non-combat position in Special Ops in WCII and survives the war with the Kilrathi. In the first game's Secret Missions 2 expansion, Bossman starts to repeatedly talk about wanting to see his family again. He dies soon after.

He was about to get married as well. Kerensky had intended it to be one last adventure before his departure and meant it as a gift; to the other characters who have realized that people always die on away missions, it comes across as an extraordinarily sadistic and cruel move and they have to restrain themselves from killing Kerensky afterwards.

A character named Flannigan is attacked almost immediately declaring he's expecting a long leave on Earth after he gets back. He's able to fight off one of the attackers but ends up mind controlled by the Cybermen. Ultimately subverted as he's also released from Cyberman control and helps the Doctor and Jamie save the day. Inverted in "Terror of the Vervoids": instead of being killed on his last voyage, Rudge threatens people with a gun and allies with the Vervoids. Subverted by The Brigadier in "Battlefield". While the early scenes showing the Brig enjoying a cozy retirement with his wife before answering the call of duty once more are designed to set up a tragic end, he miraculously survives the climatic face off with the Destroyer. Mercilessly lampshaded in "The Impossible Planet". ("'No turning back'? That's almost as bad as 'nothing can possibly go wrong', or 'This is gonna be the best Christmas Walford's ever had!'") "Smith and Jones": Dr. Stoker seals his fate when he mentions that he was planning to retire to Florida in two years and that he has a daughter still attending university.

In the late-seventh season episode "Friendship One", he shows up again, lamenting that he's one nacelle away from completing a model of Voyager, as well as discussing his family. He is then killed on an away mission by the alien-of-the-week. Interestingly, Carey is the final on-screen casualty from Voyager in the series — the crew makes it back home just a couple of episodes later.

After arresting Walt, he makes a phone call to his wife to tell her it's all over, and is then killed in a shootout by Walt's traitorous former underlings. Mike decides he's finally out of the drug trade business after selling off his share of the methylamine to another distributor, using a portion of it to pay off his guys, and the rest as a nest egg for his granddaughter, and retiring from his criminal past to a mundane life for good. Unfortunately, only a few days later, his lawyer gets arrested while depositing his dirty money and agrees to rat out Mike, forcing him to go on the run. Right as he's about to skip town, he rips into Walt for his selfish and egotistical choices causing all this, infuriating Walt, who shoots Mike dead in an impulsive fit of rage.

Retirony / int_f599977e	comment	When it comes to Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown, we continue the long tradition with Strider 3 Jaeger, who mentions telling his son about your wacky adventures across the Usean continent so often that he doesn't so much put up death flags as build a bunker out of them, nearly to the point of invoking the trope. Somehow, Jaeger actually survives the entire story, despite the final boss fight - and the post-Lighthouse intermission leading up to it - being lethal for a very high number of friendlies, including a few named ones, and this is not a game that has shied away from killing off allies you're attached to. Apparently, that bunker was tough enough to survive his blatant tempting of fate. Then again, his son, according to Word of Kono, is none other than fairly major character Erich Jaeger of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere fame, so perhaps his survival is justified.
