Someone is watching a video presentation or listening to a recording of themselves or someone else. They catch a moment on the recording of a crucial misstep, or something important. They rewind and play it again to be sure they heard it. They rewind and play it again, to get it for sure. They rewind and play it again to help commit it to memory. They rewind, and play it again, to be sure they can repeat it accurately. They rewind and play it again ... Sometimes The Hero will do this as a form of self-torture, replaying over and over and over again the moment they consider My Greatest Failure. While it can be Played for Laughs, the trope is often used in dramatic scenarios. Detectives who stumble across clues will rewind and replay. Grieving family members or lovers watching the last happy moment with a now-missing-or-departed loved one will rewind and replay. Determined people who wish to prove someone is guilty or innocent will rewind and replay in hopes of finding something to exonerate or condemn. This trope is used by heroes and villains alike and can be a Sister Trope to Engineered Public Confession or, in an entirely different way, to Enhance Button. Common in Crime and Punishment Series, and in Speculative Fiction, one can expect to see the video's speed slowed down to a frame at a time, and/or enhanced to focus on a tiny, miniscule but very important detail. If the movie is old enough, or the scene in the medium old enough, (or in completely inappropriate contexts, because of The Coconut Effect), expect to hear the gibberish noise of a tape being rewound. Since this trope is closely associated with The Reveal, expect unmarked spoilers ahead. |

In "The Adventures of the Road Runner," Wile E. Coyote is going through footage of an old Road Runner cartoon to examine his shortcomings (he apparently has the resources to record all his activities on film) and how to correct it. After the atypical end of a particular incident, Wile E. reverses the film and stops it at the crucial point and applies what went wrong for hopefully more positive returns. Of course, it doesn't work. | |

At the very beginning of Monsters, Inc., Flint actually notices that Phlegm Bile, a monster-in-training, had accidentally left the closet door open in the simulation room by watching his actions on her monitor. Later, at the end of the film, Mike Wazowski actually uses Flint's technique to expose Waternoose after Sulley and Boo lure him inside the simulation room as an attempt to get Boo back inside her "bedroom." Mike continuously replays one particular moment to drive home just how far Waternoose was willing to go. | |

In the New Jedi Order novel Rebel Dream, Danni Quee is doing this with a piece of footage recorded by holocam operator Tam Elgrin, which shows footage of Yuuzhan Vong soldiers pursuing Tam and his group. She eventually realizes the problem was that there were too few footsteps on the soundtrack; after she has the Wraiths analyze the recording, it's revealed that there only were enough footsteps in the recording for the eight Yuuzhan Vong warriors in pursuit, plus one more person—Tam himself. He'd not been part of a group as he'd claimed; he'd been alone, and had in fact been captured by the Yuuzhan Vong. | |

In the Discworld novel The Truth, William de Worde finds a Demonic Organiser that "recorded" a conversation between Mr. Pin and Mr. Tulip and their employers. He gets the imp to repeat the last sentence over and over, because it's his father's favourite phrase, and the clue that Lord de Worde is involved. Meaningfully, he also rewinds it slightly less each time, until "A lie can run around the world before the truth has got its boots on" has been reduced to "the truth has got its boots on". | |

In Avengers Academy, the more anti-heroey of the students decide to find the Hood, beat him up, and put him begging for mercy on YouTube, in revenge for his attack on Tigra. While Tigra believes this was a totally inappropriate action and chews them out for it, she can't resist watching the scene, again and again... | |

Sneakers. The protagonists are trying to find a "Little Black Box" that Dr. Gunter Janek is working on. They repeatedly watch a videotape of Janek in his office, trying to see him enter his computer password. A woman in the room is saying "I leave message here on service, but you do not call," each time. Finally one of the group realizes that since Janek uses a phone message service, he doesn't need an answering machine, so the answering machine on his desk must be something else - the Little Black Box. | |

After they become Fire-Forged Friends and then she ruins it with her bigoted comments about predators, she tearfully apologizes saying that "I really am a dumb bunny!". Nick uses the same recording carrot pen to play it back multiple times to rib her before assuring her she's forgiven. | |

The Michaelangelo Antonioni film Blowup is something of an Unbuilt Trope version, revolving around a detail in a photograph that may or may not indicate a murder, which the photographer obsessively enlarges and examines to no conclusion. It directly inspired The Conversation (which is the Trope Codifier) and the much later Brian De Palma film Blow Out. | |

While Laurie, Grace and Jerry are reviewing the surveillance footage the hotel sent them, Laurie spots something strange and tells Jerry to go back and replay it. They realise that the footage shows a man surreptitiously following Amanda hours before she was last seen, indicating she may have had a stalker, which wasn't uncovered by the original investigation. | |

In the third case of Dual Destinies, one of the central case points is that the threat "You're a goner!" was picked up on a recording around the time of death, believed to belong to the defendant, Juniper Woods. When they watch the recording of the mock trial, Juniper, who was acting as the role of the defendant during said mock trial, says "Yes, I admit I shouted "You're a goner!"..." Upon hearing it, Apollo asks for the recording to be rewound, then hearing it again, he goes to rewind it again, until Robin Newman interrupts him, wanting to know exactly what he's getting so excited again. | |

The Professionals In "Slush Fund", Cowley plays and replays a recording of a wire tap for Bodie. In a subversion audio analysis has already revealed all the relevant clues; he just wants Bodie's opinion (and isn't happy with the snarky comments he gets instead). In "Dead Reckoning", Doyle is attacked by Bulgarian intelligence agents while videoing a meeting at a Big Fancy House. He plays and replays the tape to find out what they didn't want him to see, eventually realising it's not the meeting but another man who happened to be looking out an upper window of the house at the time. |

NUMB3RS: Don begins the episode "Trust Metric" watching Colby's confession over and over, because something about it doesn't feel right to him but he can't quite figure out what. In a later episode, he does something similar, watching a suspect's prison psych interviews repeatedly in an attempt to find an angle. It ends up paying off hugely, as he uses the information he gleans to manipulate one of the suspect's disciples into giving up the location of their hideout. |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind: Abbachio's Stand, Moody Blues, has the ability to do this with real-life surroundings. Abbachio gives it a command, usually to replicate a person at a given time in the past, and this allows him and his allies to observe that person's actions as they occurred. Moody Blues can pause, fast-forward, and rewind the replication as necessary. | |

In more of a case of paying attention to detail than a case of Rewind, Replay, Repeat, the Marvel Scooby-Doo story "The Faceless Phantom" deals with the inventor of a chamber that can send its passenger from one coast of the country to the other in no time. Shaggy and Scooby are flown from California (where the mystery takes place) to New York and report to the gang via closed circuit TV. The inventor's assistant then puts them in the chamber at that end and they are transported immediately back to the chamber in California. Or were they? There was a clock in back of Shaggy that Fred spots which read the same time as where he, Velma and Daphne were when it should have been three hours ahead. The inventor turned out to be a scammer upon further evidence turning up. (Oh, the phantom? He was just a nutcase who tried to stop the invention because it would have made airplanes—and worse, stewardesses—obsolete.) | |

Life Is Strange: The main mechanic and plot base of the game is Max' ability to rewind time as often as she likes to play through situations again and again, in the process changing them until they have the outcome she wishes or until she has gained information without someone remembering talking to her at all. | |

In Portal 2 GLaDOS reveals that her memory was preserved in a black box that constantly replayed footage of the two minutes leading up to her demise at the hands of Chell in the previous game. It's implied that the time between the two games spanned several hundred years, meaning GLaDOS was replaying that a lot. | |

Click has at least these two: A debatably funny one. Michael uses the rewind function to serve his own Male Gaze and rewatch bouncing boobs and behinds over and over... And an extremely Tear Jerkery one. The magic remote given to Michael behaved according to his preferences — choices of how and when he used the remote. So since he had developed a habit for fast forwarding past moments he considered not worth living through — moments usually involving spending time with his family in favor of work, the remote fast forwarded him past several important and milestone moments in his life ... including the death of his father. Grief stricken, he tries repeatedly to rewind reality back to before that moment. The one who gave him the remote tells him it can't be done, because he wasn't there. So instead, Michael rewinds to the last time he ever saw his sweet, doting father alive. This also causes Michael to repeatedly watch himself be a huge Jerkass who gives his father a brusque, negligent brush-off, resulting in the poor old man having to hide his tears... and replays that moment over and over again. |

The Mighty B!: Honeybee Scouts founder and headmistress Miriam Breedlove watches a number of videos from Honeybee scouts all over the country trying to win a contest whose prize is lunch with her. Bessie Higgenbottom's retro-style video indicates Bessie knows the legend of "The Mighty B", which implies the Honeybee who earns every single badge will be endowed with superheroic powers. As Breedlove comes upon this part of the video, she pauses, rewinds, and replays several times so as to rewatch Bessie enthusiastically shouting, "The Mighty B!" over and over. | |

Ace Attorney: There are several points in trials where you need to review a tape to find the points on it where something either proves or disproves a theory, sometimes rewinding and replaying the same tape several times to find different important things. In the third case of Dual Destinies, one of the central case points is that the threat "You're a goner!" was picked up on a recording around the time of death, believed to belong to the defendant, Juniper Woods. When they watch the recording of the mock trial, Juniper, who was acting as the role of the defendant during said mock trial, says "Yes, I admit I shouted "You're a goner!"..." Upon hearing it, Apollo asks for the recording to be rewound, then hearing it again, he goes to rewind it again, until Robin Newman interrupts him, wanting to know exactly what he's getting so excited again. |

In the first Artemis Fowl book, this is done twice with Root's recording of Artemis during their conversation. The first time, they repeatedly replay his statement "I am special, because I know how to escape the time field" to try and work out whether he's telling the truth. The second time, they repeatedly replay his statement "None of you have permission to enter this building while I am alive" upon realising this means they will have permission to enter once he dies. Artemis counted on the fairies zeroing in on the latter statement, and evades their attempt to kill him by escaping the time field just as he said he could. | |

A variant during the Babylon 5 episode "Point of No Return": Sheridan gets a message from a superior, General Smits, that warns him of orders issued from the Political Office that would give more power to Nightwatch—specifically, all security personnel would have to become part of Nightwatch or turn in their badge. Later in the episode, Sheridan gets a "Eureka!" Moment which prompts him to replay parts of the conversation. It turns out General Smits was subtly trying to encourage Sheridan to Bother By the Book: the Political Office was outside the military chain of command, so their orders were illegal and could not be implemented. With the help of security officer Zack Allan, who was part of Nightwatch but uncomfortable with their policies, all the members of Nightwatch in Security (excluding those few who wouldn't "play ball") were lured to one place and imprisoned for following illegal orders. It could only buy time until President Clark himself issued the same orders, which he acknowledged freely. As it turned out, the events of the very next episode made the "chain of command" issue a moot point. | |
