Right Hand Versus Left Hand	comment	Communication is the key to life. Good communication will lead to productivity and fewer wasted resources. Bad communication will only lead to headaches and heartbreaks. In any sort of story, good communication will often be counterproductive to comedy and drama. But even in a dramatic sense, there are moments when the lack of communication is why two people are enemies, simply because they don't know what side the other is on. In a large organization, the intended goals are not always entirely clear to everyone. Sometimes the project is so secret that the two groups don't know the other is working on it. These will often lead to two parts of the same group doing counter-productive things, not knowing what the other is working towards. Hence the saying "The right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing." Sometimes this will lead to civil wars, a Faceâ€“Heel Turn, a Heelâ€“Face Turn or simply to follow the age-old goal that Hilarity Ensues. If you want to introduce likable but misguided antagonists to tangle with the heroes and villains, this is a good way to keep them fighting everyone and stay relatable. Usually, if it's one side that insists on not comparing notes, it's because they're an Ineffectual Loner who will sooner or later get creamed by the bad guys. Eventually, you can be sure that the protagonists' side will win out over the other, or both will eventually sit down and talk things out once a member of each group Go Karting and can vouch for the other. Expect someone to note "it could have been avoided". This doesn't need to be limited to two sides either, it gets very common with large casts with characters acting independently of each other, but constantly bumping into each other because they all share the story. Interestingly enough, there could almost be more Truth in Television examples than fictional examples. See also Two Rights Make a Wrong, Flock of Wolves, Poor Communication Kills, Let's You and Him Fight, Interservice Rivalry, Calling the Cops on the FBI, Mistakenly Attacked Mole (being unaware that a target is on their side), Civil Warcraft (often a result of this trope), Conflict Ball, Friend or Foe?, and We ARE Struggling Together. A romantic version is the Two-Person Love Triangle.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_10254bd5	comment	The Thick of It features endless disasters that could have been avoided if the various participants were willing to coordinate properly, (though admittedly things progress/degenerate so fast in their world that they often simply don't have time for anything but off-the-cuff responses,) but Season 4 has more than the previous ones because half of its time is spent with the coalition government. This latter case is made even worse than usual cases of this trope by the fact that the two ministers hate each other, follow violently opposing party principles, are constantly trying to score political points for their own party (usually at the expense of the other,) and the person who is meant to be liaising between them is a particularly unhelpful Obstructive Bureaucrat.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_222c2051	comment	This comes up on Chuck almost to the point of being a Running Gag. The CIA doesn't like the NSA, and both of them look down on the FBI. And then of course there's the DEA. The very first episode starts with Sarah (CIA) trying to keep Chuck out of Casey's (NSA) hands even though both were ordered by their superiors to locate the stolen Intersect, and the next episode involves Casey convincing Chuck that Sarah may be rogue. The team frequently butts heads with foreign intelligence agencies (MI6, the French Secret Service, etc.) precisely because no one has bothered to tell the team (or Beckman and Graham) that other agencies are even involved (and in at least one case the team was ordered to interfere regardless to get the credit first). And let's not even start on all the ways operations have been fouled up because one or more team members went off on a rogue mission.

The rank-and-file associates are often at a loss as to which brother's orders they're supposed to follow, and senior lieutenants like Violante lack the information to make proper decisions. This comes to a head when Josto and Violante are not told of the aborted hit on Lemuel Cannon that Gaetano authorized, so they fail to take extra precautions to secure an important weapons shipment against Loy's retaliation.

The fight to overthrow the Legislaturalists has all sorts of issues with differing factions in the government and the rebellion fighting. Later there's State Security and various different factions and heads often not keeping each other in the loop. It only gets worse as the second Manticore/Haven war could have been averted entirely. Granted we now know that most of the communication failures, both inside the Republic's government, between Manticore's allies, and between Manticore and Heaven themselves are all part of a plan to that exact purpose.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_28df3e79	comment	There Was Once an Avenger From Krypton: According to Coulson in Changing of the Guard, it's pretty standard for S.W.O.R.D. and S.H.I.E.L.D. to not communicate and to actively keep each other in the dark about their respective operations. When Julie comments how this seems to reduce their effectiveness, Coulson agrees — and given that S.W.O.R.D.'s withholding of information regarding everything happening in Arcadia means that S.H.I.E.L.D. is caught wholly unable to properly respond to Vilgax's invasion, they'd appear to be correct in their opinion on the matter. In Thanatos Scowled, Doctor Strange sends Nico to Amity Park to try and recruit Danny Phantom for his team of magical heroes. Fury had already known that Danny was living in New York City, and in fact had tried to recruit him for the Avengers after the Chitauri invasion, but got turned down, none of which he seems to have told Strange.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_36ee2abe	comment	Half the fun of a good game of Paranoia. (The other half is the ensuing hilarity). And it's not just the party...Friend Computer's programming has endured centuries of stress, disappointment, full-on disaster, Computer Phreak fiddling, the rivalries and politics of the Ultraviolet elite, and (naturally) paranoia, and as a result will frequently issue instructions that contradict themselves, such as issuing people with high explosives from R&D, ordering a field test, and announcing that failure to return them intact will be considered treason. (Naturally, this being Paranoia, it's quite likely the explosives will end up being used to kill off the rest of the party at some point). This is a lie spread by Commie Mutant Traitors. Friend Computer has never issued contradictory orders. Please report to the termination center in the nearest Violet section, Red Citizen. Always remember, Red Citizen, that Red Citizens do not have Violet access privileges. Failure to comply under any circumstances will be treated as treason and grounds for termination. Friend Computer wishes you to have a nice day.

After an electro-magnetic pulse stops technology, the government forcibly conscripts anyone capable of operating the Calculor, a human-powered computer. An Underground Railroad is formed, but it turns out to be run by the secret police to scoop up all those who escaped the net — this is only revealed after another agency arrests everyone in the mistaken belief that it's a real underground railway. When the two organisations are given a roasting for not speaking to each other, their leaders protest that they do...just not about their top-secret operations.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_3e14b5c0	comment	Eternal Champions became collateral damage of Sega's in-fighting. Successful enough in the west, SOA was preparing to start production of various licenses for it (including comics and a cartoon), along with a finale appropriately called Eternal Champions: The Final Chapter. However, Sega of Japan was heavily promoting Virtua Fighter as their flagship fighter, and they cancelled anything that might draw audiences away from it, which at the time was just Eternal Champions. Hypocritically, SOJ then went on to produce many other fighters, such as Fighting Vipers, Last Bronx, Golden Axe: The Duel and Sonic the Fighters, which all happily coexisted with Virtua Fighter.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_41963414	comment	The War Against the Chtorr. A major gripe of the protagonist, especially in "A Season for Slaughter", vis-a-vis his covert employers the Uncle Ira Group. The Uncle Ira Group on the other hand are constantly annoyed by his habit of going off half-cocked at Obstructive Bureaucrats instead of trusting them to handle things behind the scenes. He is constantly annoyed because for the past three-and-a-half books, they never bothered to correct his assumption that he was The Only One focused on the enemy instead of gaming the system. Very justifiably, too, as the literal previous time he met the actual leader of the group - the first time they met — the UIG tried to feed him to a giant alien worm. And the only reason he survived was because he, on his own initiative, actually learned how to use the weapon they gave him beforehand — a weapon was chosen specifically because it was nearly useless against giant alien worms. The only reason he survived was because he is Crazy-Prepared.

But NERV and SEELE wanted to be the ones in control of Instrumentality by themselves, to the point that they were constantly trying to figure out how to have an edge over the other group without showing their own hand too early (to the point SEELE pretty much tried to counter one of Gendo Ikari's measures (Rei) by allying themselves with one of the Angels (Kaworu/Tabris). And stuck in the middle was the JSSDF (and Kaji pulling double-agent duty), just trying to figure what the hell was going on and doing its duty to try to stop the Angels while distrusting the other groups (that used it as a source for cannon fodder).

Not long into the hunt, the Mandalorian starts running into other bounty hunters from his guild who are after the same target; the Client didn't want to take any chances, so he gave every hunter in the guild the same contract, figuring one of them would be good enough to get it. Further complicating matters, many of the other hunters are content to simply kill the target and be done with it, something that our hero understandably objects to given that said target is a baby.

If Saturos and Menardi only stated from the beginning that they're on a mission to save the world instead of leading it to doom, perhaps the elders of Vale have considered their pleas. If Felix had stated his motivation in assisting Saturos and Menardi in their mission while everyone was in the Sol Sanctum, perhaps Isaac, Garet, Jenna, and Kraden would have helped convincing the people of Vale in this journey. If everyone spoke up about their motivations while battling in Venus Lighthouse, Saturos and Menardi, and by extension, Agatio and Karst, would not need to die, etc.

Unfortunately for her, these doppelgangers also possess free will and the same ironclad certainty that they should be the only one making decisions, leading to them mostly plotting against each other rather than actually advancing the Allmother's schemes. Since they all have the exact same skills, experience, and personality, they also find themselves unable to make much headway against each other due to being stuck in a perfectly even match.

This is not helped by the fact that Ryou doesn't often wait around to get or give explanations. As a result, he spends at least as much time fighting would-be allies as he does fighting actual enemies. In addition, there was some initial confusion between Agito and G3. The former attacked the latter, branding him as an undesirable in the eyes of the police, despite frequently saving G3 afterwards.

Ex-Aid, a pediatrician, attempts to make the Victim of the Week feel better by understanding them. Brave, a surgeon, strives to make no emotional attachments to the victim because no surgeon is right all the time. Lazer, a coroner, is concerned with finding out the origin of the disease as a whole, and keeps things close to his chest as he's not sure of the full involvement of the other players. Snipe, an ex-radiologist is less concerned about saving lives, but "winning" the game, and is just as likely to put lives in danger as he is to save them. As Ex-Aid is the hero, this leads to Brave being the closest to his own motivation, but he can be callous towards the victim, Lazer being the easiest Rider to befriend, but the least trustworthy, and Snipe being the most knowledgeable about the Rider systems, but the most antagonistic of the four. And that's not getting into the motivations of Genm or the Bugsters.

Apparently they did so without informing their superiors, who realize that this could start a war and order Philip and Elizabeth to stop the assassin at all costs. Philip invokes this when he is impersonating an FBI agent from internal affairs to get close to Martha, a secretary in the FBI Counterintelligence unit. He complains that the other FBI divisions do not share information with them, and then internal affairs gets blamed because they do not know what is going on. This is a ploy to convince Martha to give him information FBI counterintelligence has gathered on an assassin. It grows even more complicated when he later marries his mark. Phillip and Elizabeth first approach Larrick posing as American intelligence agents, but he sees through the ruse fairly quickly, especially when he later discovers Phillip tailing him. In Season 6, factions within Russia begin working to opposing ends through KGB agents in America. Philip and Elizabeth side with opposite factions, at least for a time.

Basically, every single project run by the Alliance government is being supervised, but nobody's overseeing the big picture, and none of the people doing the supervising of the individual projects can compare notes because of security compartmentalization. This means that nobody realizes that things are going wrong until they start going spectacularly wrong in a way that nearly starts a war by accident. Victoria Rione explicitly tells Geary that he should refrain from thinking of government as one-giant-mind-many-hands, but instead as many minds with differing objectives and methods trying to control the one giant hand of government. In the backstory of the series, the moon of Europa is now totally uninhabitable and under perpetual quarantine because an organization decided to have their bio labs there create a deadly and rapidly contagious bioweapon that could pass all known bio-sensors... and forgot to tell their own bio-sensor development people about it until after it broke free and infected the entire design team.

Captain Shears, their spy on Corneria, is attempting to acquire information on the Arwing, an experimental new ship being designed by Space Dynamics. To do this, he sends two agents to detain James McCloud in order to interrogate him and steal his personal Arwing. Doctor Andross, their leader, is laying a trap for a Cornerian infiltration team that is about to acquire a set of valuable data disks that Andross needs. To do this, he has a second spy within the team, Pigma, lure the infiltrators into a trap where he can capture their team leaderâ€¦ who turns out to also be James McCloud. As a result, the two schemes end up colliding when Shears' agents accost James right as he's seconds away from walking into Andross' clutches with the disks in-hand. Horrifyingly, Andross responds by just having his agent Pigma kill the loyal agents to lull James into making the final steps into the trap.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_69d15cc0	comment	The Marvel Cinematic Universe suffered with this for half of the 2010s, with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige wanting certain movies but executives from parent company Marvel Entertainment shutting them down, with Black Panther (2018) and Captain Marvel (2019) (rejected for being too ethnic and centering around a woman) only being allowed to enter the slate by adding a project based on the franchise CEO Ike Perlmutter pushed, The Inhumans. The Executive Meddling by Marvel's "Creative Committee" also led to directors leaving due to Creative Differences (Patty Jenkins on Thor: The Dark World, Edgar Wright on Ant-Man), the widely divisive scripts of Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World, enough impositions on Avengers: Age of Ultron to make Joss Whedon burnt out, and Robert Downey Jr. nearly leaving the franchise because Perlmutter did not want to pay him a big salary. Marvel's parent Disney eventually intervened to make Marvel Studios answer directly to them and not need this sort of detrimental in-fighting. (It says something that while the Inhumans only became a brief and widely disliked TV show, the two projects Feige got as "collateral" both broke a billion dollars at the box office.)

It's expected that the diplomatic liaison will tell him what to do, and Wedge will mostly be there to look good. But he gets shut out of everything but flying duels, and he refuses to kill Adumari in these duels. The liaison tells him that he should kill them; it's native custom and by not doing it he makes the New Republic look weak. The Imperial pilots kill in duels, and they look strong. Wedge refuses. The liaison talks the leader of this particular Adumari nation into going to war with the others to unify the planet, and it's expected that Wedge and his pilots will fight in this war - the Imperial pilots are doing it. Wedge refuses, and the ruler basically calls open season on him and his pilots, letting everyone try to kill them. They escape through a combination Indy Ploy / Xanatos Speed Chess, find that the New Republic flagship in orbit won't respond when they comm it, and go to ground, where Wedge finds that the liaison told the ruler that Wedge wanted to fight, but had been ordered not to and wanted to be killed honorably.

The Expanded Universe indicates that the Covenant in general suffers from this so badly that they don't even have a unified military, just a diverse array of martial organizations, each controlled by one or more specific Ministries, who often wage war against each other. The Hierarchs themselves could and would keep secrets from each other (mostly Truth, which did not assuage Regret's justified fears that he and Mercy would someday wind up discarded by Truth). The expanded universe also shows that various parties within the UNSC do not agree with each other; the Office of Naval Intelligence even ends up acquiring enough power to effectively secede from the rest of the Navy.

Problem was the new building systems competing for limited shelf space/consumers interested in "buildable toys," and were usually not compatible with either each other and often were only partially compatible with traditional Lego bricks. Bionicle and Galidor in particular were both lines of science fiction themed buildable action figures coming out in 2001 and 2002 respectively, and the mass success of Bionicle seems to have been a contributing factor in the downfall of Galidor.

In theory, both groups should work together in the development of games but in practice they're fighting each other over resources (read: memory) to the point of becoming fierce enemies, making any kind of cooperation between them nigh impossible. It's up to Tarou Sega to patch things between the warring organizations. Easier said than done as the lead programmer lost his mind after an incident that involved a yellow bear suit, an unruly mob of customers and the guys from D. D. Crew and the lead designer became a tyrannical despot who rules over his underlings with an iron fist and executes anyone who dares to question his orders, like modeling a 200.000 polygon trashcan.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_7f8a38b6	comment	The Mobile Suit Gundam Wing spin-off manga G-Unit has a feud between OZ and its black ops division OZ Prize, the main conflict coming from the fact that Prize answers directly to the Romefeller Foundation, the military-industrial combine that created OZ in the first place. Things only get worse when, after months of Prize failing to deliver, Romefeller hands control of the organization over to Valder Farkill, a talented and extremely ruthless OZ commander, and he starts purging the old guard. The observers on colony MO-V (the object both factions are fighting over) even directly mention this trope when it first happens.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_81f5d35d	comment	A staple of Kamen Rider. Pretty much everyone is afraid of Gills in Kamen Rider Agito. Oftentimes, they assume he's an enemy and attack. This is not helped by the fact that Ryou doesn't often wait around to get or give explanations. As a result, he spends at least as much time fighting would-be allies as he does fighting actual enemies. In addition, there was some initial confusion between Agito and G3. The former attacked the latter, branding him as an undesirable in the eyes of the police, despite frequently saving G3 afterwards. In Kamen Rider 555, both Takumi Inui and Yuji Kiba were fighting against the evil Smart Brain corporation. But thanks to a whole heap of misunderstandings, Contrived Coincidences and stolen Transformation Trinkets, each thought that the other was The Dragon of Smart Brain. For a time, they were even friends in their human forms and enemies in their battle forms and never knowing. In Kamen Rider Kabuto, the Heroes "R" Us organization has some highly shady higher-ups that our heroes and their Reasonable Authority Figure don't realize they're fighting, though the viewer does. And it turns out their allies aren't on the level. Then it turns out that the non-shady side of ZECT is unknowingly working for the Natives, that is, the non-shady members of the monster race known as the Worms. But one of them is in fact very shady and has his own plan different from that of anybody else. In other words, it's ZECT versus ZECT from start to finish, Worm vs. Worm with the introduction of the Natives, and Native Worm vs. Native Worm with the revelation of that hidden scheme revealed near the end. On top of that, ZECT has a "with us or against us" policy, and not all Riders are working for ZECT, so it's Rider vs. Rider more often than in any other series other than Kamen Rider Ryuki and its Highlander-like situation despite no Rider wanting the Worms to exterminate and replace humanity. Even the Non-Serial Movie manages to pit ZECT against itself twice over: There's ZECT vs. Neo-ZECT (former ZECT members who want to create an organization that's like ZECT minus the douchebaggery) and then ZECT vs. the higher-up who wants the Worms to win because they store the memories of the humans they replace - he believes this is the only way for something of humanity to survive the post-apocalyptic world that occurred in the movie timeline. In Kamen Rider Kiva, The Beautiful Blue Sky Organization, and especially Nago, are bent on killing Kiva because they think he's an enemy of mankind. They're confusing him with the original Dark Kiva from 1986. Nago and Wataru almost kill each other several times before everything is cleared up. Several versions of this trope occur in Kamen Rider OOO, most of them unusual. In a rather literal example, Ankh and Lost Ankh fight each other at every opportunity, despite technically being the same person. In a still-odd but more traditional example, Eiji and Ankh frequently keep from each other important secrets, like the locations of Core Medals and plans to throw Eiji off buildings as bait. Weirdly, in this instance, the opposition is not at all due to accident and is, in fact, expected. They may have similar goals, but that doesn't mean that they won't undermine each other to reach said goals. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid has this in abundance with all four heroes working to different goals and motivations, and are motivated by their particular medical specialty. Ex-Aid, a pediatrician, attempts to make the Victim of the Week feel better by understanding them. Brave, a surgeon, strives to make no emotional attachments to the victim because no surgeon is right all the time. Lazer, a coroner, is concerned with finding out the origin of the disease as a whole, and keeps things close to his chest as he's not sure of the full involvement of the other players. Snipe, an ex-radiologist is less concerned about saving lives, but "winning" the game, and is just as likely to put lives in danger as he is to save them. As Ex-Aid is the hero, this leads to Brave being the closest to his own motivation, but he can be callous towards the victim, Lazer being the easiest Rider to befriend, but the least trustworthy, and Snipe being the most knowledgeable about the Rider systems, but the most antagonistic of the four. And that's not getting into the motivations of Genm or the Bugsters.

On the up side, they've pointedly averted this when it comes to lead Agatha and love interest Gil, by spilling the whole weird story to Gil as soon as possible. But this trope is still in full force when it comes to the Baron Wulfenbach, Gil's father - who not only doesn't have the whole story on Agatha, but now has good reason to believe that Agatha is brainwashing his son into following her. And a really good reason not to talk to her.

The local police commissioner explains to Poole that he was Locked Out of the Loop because they suspected a member of the local department being a Dirty Cop and couldn't risk informing him. Poole then loudly counters that he had only been on the island for less than a week and had spent the previous thirteen years miles away in London, so there wasn't much risk to keeping him informed.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_8d814070	comment	One of the funniest MAS*H episodes ever had an Army Intelligence officer and a CIA officer both show up in the 4077th — the CIA officer because he thought something suspicious, and the Army Intelligence officer because he assumed there must be something going on for the CIA guy to be there. Pierce and McIntyre have a lot of fun subtly pointing both officers towards Frank and then messing with his file to convince each of them that he was a threat (even more hilariously, they changed the documents so that each of them would see him as a completely different type of threat), culminating in a scene where both barge in and try to arrest him at the exact same time for contradictory reasons. There was an episode where the 4077th is being bombed by the Americans because American intelligence believes them to be North Korean and the one officer theyâ€™re able to call isnâ€™t able to get anyone up top to listen to him. Then there's Colonel Flagg. who is a one-man example. Who he actually works for is an open question (he routinely claims different affiliations), but here's a sample quote: He also once stated that "No one can get the truth out of me because even I don't know what it is. I keep myself in a constant state of utter confusion."

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_8d817ccb	comment	Lost: Jacob's utter refusal to communicate his intentions to anyone ends up ensuring a ridiculous amount of needless death in the long run. In particular, the Others believe they are fulfilling his orders by attacking the Flight 815 survivors, when it's later revealed that the survivors are the Candidates the Others are supposed to be protecting - every death from seasons 1 to 3 could have been avoided if everyone had known they were on the same side in the first place, which doesn't become apparent until Martin Keamy arrives to force an Enemy Mine. Similarly, Charles Widmore goes from an enemy of the survivors to an ally of the survivors during the three year Time Skip, but he makes no attempt to communicate this to anyone besides Jacob or change his militaristic methods in any way. This means that by the time he actually does bother to explain himself, nobody trusts him and the survivors steal his submarine to try to flee the Island, leading to Sayid, Jin, and Sun's deaths. By the time the survivors realize he was telling the truth and that he's an ally, Ben kills him both to avenge his daughter and keep his cover. When Jack and Locke split the camp in season four, they're both trying to do what they think is right for the group - Jack trusts the Freighter crew will save them, while Locke thinks they have ulterior motives and wants to hide - but their mutual pride means they stop communicating with each other. The result is that the Freighter crew ends up attacking Locke's camp, the camp that was trying to hide in the first place, and almost everyone there dies. Jin and Sun spend the entirety of season six trying to reunite, but because they are both constantly on the move looking for each other, they keep passing each other, some times by minutes, without every finding each other. They do finally reunite, but they die in the sinking submarine the next day.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_90f42a9b	comment	Half the plot of The Wheel of Time rests on this trope, for both sides. It would have been a much shorter series if people simply talked to each other. (The other half resting on those same people just not caring and feeling that they alone should be the ones running the show.) This is particularly infuriating from the Aes Sedai, part of whose function is meant to aid co-operation and lead the fight, but who are laughably incompetent and mind bogglingly arrogant, splitting into several factions and still demanding everyone follow their lead alone. Everyone else simply follows their lead in trying to deal with things. Luckily for the good guys, the bad guys are doing much the same thing, and not just because of Chronic Backstabbing Disorder. A lot of loyal villains, working toward the interest of the Big Bad, accidentally undermine the efforts of other villains due to lack of communication (which is not that surprising, since they're all in disguise). Ultimately, the bad guys may have been more directly responsible for the victory of the Light than anyone on the side of good.

A lot of the drama that culminated in Nelson & Murdock breaking up at the end of season 2 would've been avoided if Matt had just told Karen and Foggy right away about Elektra being back in town rather than keep her a secret from them. If he had, Foggy and Karen likely could've talked him out of several date night fights with ninjas and made Frank Castle's trial less of a disaster. By not telling them, Foggy ends up being blindsided when Elektra sabotages a key witness in Frank's trial, and Karen is led to think Matt is cheating on her when she finds a wounded Elektra recovering in his bed.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_a2f77c77	comment	According to Jim Cornette the relationship between WWE and their developmental promotion Ohio Valley Wrestling (which Cornette co-owned and was booker of) became this when Jim Ross was replaced as Head of Talent Relations by John Laurinaitis. There were elements of this to begin with, with OVW being run by wrestling traditionalists and WWE focusing more on the entertainment part of "sports entertainment", but while Ross was able to bridge this gap and make this a very productive partnership (see the pages for John Cena, Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar, and Batista for proof) Johnny Ace never really tried, Cornette says he knew they were in trouble when Stephanie McMahon was quoted as saying about Laurinaitis "We now have a head of talent relations that will work with the creative team, not against them." The partnership deteriorated from that point on (though Cornette admits that personal animosities on all sides didn't make things easier), Cornette would eventually be fired, sell his stake in OVW, and actually go back to working with Vince Russo in TNA out of spitenote And loyalty to Jeff Jarrett, who Cornette has always been close with because Jeff's father and grandmother brought him into the business. WWE would sever ties with OVW and bring everything in house to make sure everyone is on the same page, creating the WWE Performance Center in Orlando and their own developmental promotion in WWE NXT.note Though this trope came up again with NXT, as Triple H (who was running NXT and is now booking the main roster) forgot the whole point was to train future talent and instead ran it as a promotion catering to the Smart Mark fans, raiding the ROH roster and buying Evolve, and eventually getting into a ratings war with AEW. While this worked as intended in a sense (the NXT Takeover shows were showered with praise by smarks and ragsheets) it produced next to nothing as far as male main roster talent goes. In 2021 Vince McMahon finally demanded to know why his developmental promotion could only produce female stars, anyone who's familiar with Vince could probably guess his reaction to seeing a locker room full of guys under 6 feet and 200 pounds that can do all the athletic stuff but not much else, and with Triple H out on medical leave Vince cleaned house and rebooted NXT.

As per the original, he's right to be suspicious and try to apprehend him—turns out the man is actually the supposed victim. It gets weirder. The now-beggar is actually an undercover British Intelligence agent who had faked his death because his former identity was found out when he infiltrated a criminal organization. Then, British Intelligence shows up to take him away... only the men that turn up are fake British Intelligence agents who want to wipe his memory and ensure that the organization's secrets are lost. The real agent is rescued, however, and he admits he took Holmes for a criminal trying to silence him and fled instead of accepting Holmes' help, which would have gotten him back to safety sooner. New Scotland Yard was never told what was going on by their higher-ups and it very nearly led to a severe loss for them, but Holmes and Lestrade prove crafty enough to figure it out.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_aaa65d7e	comment	The final showdown of the third Rebuild of Evangelion movie. Both Shinji/Kaworu and Asuka/Mari were actually trying to save the world. But the first faction was given wrong intel, believing that grabbing two certain artifacts would return the post-apocalyptic Wasteland they live in to a habitable state, when all it will actually do is to devastate the earth for good. Shinji, greatly agonizing about having to fight a former comrade, even tried to talk and explain, but Asuka, probably believing that he was willingly working for the villains (not an unreasonable guess given earlier events), just charges him with a glaive to try and stop him and arrest him, putting him in a hopeless situation where he'd disregard the vague warnings of Kaworu (who'd noticed something was off, but was paralyzed figuring out what and why) and pull the doomsday devices. The original series was no better: the Instrumentality project required a single goal: that all Angels had to be destroyed first. But NERV and SEELE wanted to be the ones in control of Instrumentality by themselves, to the point that they were constantly trying to figure out how to have an edge over the other group without showing their own hand too early (to the point SEELE pretty much tried to counter one of Gendo Ikari's measures (Rei) by allying themselves with one of the Angels (Kaworu/Tabris). And stuck in the middle was the JSSDF (and Kaji pulling double-agent duty), just trying to figure what the hell was going on and doing its duty to try to stop the Angels while distrusting the other groups (that used it as a source for cannon fodder).

In another episode, in order to complete her mission early, 99 sent the KAOS agents chasing her on a Wild Goose Chase to Pier 42.

When she travels along the same railroad, she encounters another railroad worker who spent the last twenty years of his life disassembling the parts of the railroad the first worker had cleaned and maintained. Finally, she meets a railroad worker who spent the last twenty years of his life reassembling the same railroad after the second worker disassembled it.

It's eventually revealed that the giant death maze which the protagonists find themselves trapped in was—bizarrely—built without a genuine purpose. One of the architects who worked on the project concluded that there wasn't a malevolent master plan behind it, but was the result of a bureaucratic mix-up with separate agencies all working on different parts of the structure and putting people in it without knowing about each other's existence. Whether he's right is ultimately left up in the air.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_b4967d43	comment	This is also what some argue is the reason behind the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise's famously Broken Base: Sega licensed out use of the Sonic characters and settings to practically anybody who asked, and they were given free rein to do whatever they wanted with the license. The result was that dozens of companies created their own Sonic universes with little in common (DiC Entertainment alone created three separate shows, with the Archie Comics being a fusion of the first two early on before mostly going with a uncomfortable blend of SatAM and game elements), and kids of the time chose one of them as their favorite. This wasn't much of a problem at the time, as these fans were united against Nintendo and their mascot Super Mario, but it came crashing down when Sega's people decided they'll have a single continuity instead and tossed all of them out except for their own, upsetting the many Sonic fans who followed a continuity other than that of the video games.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Take any two major subfactions of the Imperium of Man from Warhammer 40,000. The Space Marines, the Inquisition, the Adeptus Mechanicus... any two. Chances are they're each working to undo something one of the others has done or is going to do. The Inquisition actually has Right Hand Versus Left Hand as departmental policy, and so much factional infighting occurs within that organization that they made an entire game about it. This is partly a pragmatic out-of-universe decision - you need to provide the opportunity for any two armies to be able to fight each other. There is an example in the game's fiction of an incident early in the history of the Imperium, before Imperial Guard equipment and uniforms were regulated (well, closer to regulation) in which two armies of Guardsmen from different worlds encountered one another, each deciding that the other must be a hostile force. Several thousand were killed before the commanders on either side realised what was going on. The Shira Calpurnia novels demonstrate this to almost depressing levels. The first novel alone demonstrates the minutia of political (and literal) conflict and vested interests between the Adeptus Arbites, Ministorum, Ecclesiarchy, Navy, Navigators, Astropaths, Sorroritas, and the Inquisition, all of whom are meant to work together. And this is just in one hive of one planet in one of innumerable sectors in the Imperium. There is actually a good reason why this is the case in the Imperium, during the Horus Heresy, Horus was able to turn roughly half the military (including ships, Space Marines, Mechanicus and Guard regiments) to his side without anyone noticing. This, and other incidents such as the Age of Apostasy, means that all Imperial organisations are encouraged to distrust and compete against each other, to make sure no one man can ever accumulate enough personal power to threaten the Imperium...but it also means that nothing short of the Not Quite Dead God-Emperor suddenly recovering from his corpse state on the Golden Throne will ever allow the Imperium to get out of the shit barrel of problems it's created for itself in the past 10,000 years. The return of Roboute Guilliman is about the closest thing they can get. He was in medical stasis for a long time but he has finally healed enough to make a big return, and to say he is not happy about the state of the Imperium is a massive understatement. The Inquisition gets another special mention, because they're just a gold mine of this trope. The Ordo Originatus wishes to investigate and uncover secrets that have been lost to time regarding the founding of the Inquisition itself, believing it will make the Inquisition as a whole more powerful and help cement humanity's victory. The Ordo Redactus seeks to obfuscate and destroy that very same information, fearing it'll fall into the hands of mankind's most dangerous foes. In fact, this is standard operating procedure for nearly everyone in 40k, to the point that one could argue the only reason any of races in the setting have survived for as long as they have is because everyone else is too busy with internal fighting to commit everything they have to warfare. The Eldar craftworlds regularly kill each other over conflicting visions of different farseers, the Chaos subfactions are, as the name implies, rather chaotic and opposed to each other, the Dark Eldar will rape and kill anything that moves and backstabbing is the primary way of advancement in Comorragh, the two active Necron star-gods (the rest were shattered and in one instance killed by the Necrons near the end of the War in Heaven) are distinctly opposed to each other, while the Necrons themselves have returned to the pre-unification dynastic rivalries after the 60 million year stasis they went under following the War in Heaven, and Tyranid forces from different splinter fleets will attack and consume one another on sight to test out each others' biological enhancements. Orks are always up for a fight, and the nearest other thing that looks like a good fight is usually the Ork right next to him, so they end up constantly fighting eachother unless a powerful Warboss unites them on a WAAAAAAAAGH! and that only goes on until the boss bites it whereupon the Nobs will immediately go at each other. The only faction that seems somewhat united are the Tau, who are about the smallest faction (smallest major faction that is, there are many minor alien species and even some equal powers to the Tau as well) to boot, and they've got Commander Farsight off doing his thing. With the Tyranid example, the winning side will then consume all of the bio-mass out there (from both sides), convert it into new warriors, and end up with a force of the same size of the two individual fleets combined but with only the more capable designs. This is an overall 'bad thing' for everyone else in the galaxy. Often, it's not. This is because dealing with one enemy is much easier than dealing with two. For example, the Imperium regularly wipes out smaller Hive Fleets using genetically engineered viruses. Each Hive Fleet requires a different virus. Therefore one Hive Fleet is easier to deal with than two. And of course, all too often, the new designs are only better for fighting other Tyranids Tzeentch, Chaos god of change, magic, backstabbing and hope, thrives on this. His every plan is designed to cause and/or require another to fail, even those that would ensure his complete victory over all other gods... because that would leave him no one to plot against and he ceases to be. Hell, Tzeentch backstabs himself on a fundamental level by fighting to maintain Status Quo Is God to ensure his own existence while being the god of change and hope.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_c43df4d8	comment	In the late 90s and early 2000s, it was generally assumed that even if anyone wanted to produce Doctor Who for television again, the television rights were too widely scattered to be feasible, given that several major characters—most obviously the Daleks, the Cybermen, and K9—were owned by the original writers and not the BBC. BBCi decided to produce a Doctor Who webcast for the 2003 40th anniversary, on the grounds that it didn't look like anybody else was ever going to make Doctor Who again. After much dodging of the question from legal, they managed to get hold of someone who could give them something resembling a straight answer: "The Terry Nation estate owns the Daleks, therefore you cannot do Doctor Who." After getting this person to comprehend the notion that they wanted to do a Doctor Who story without the Daleks, they got the straighter answer "Doctor Who itself is owned by the BBC and can be produced with no trouble at all, while certain races, villains, and characters are owned by their creators". BBCi went ahead with production. When the new BBCTV controller stated publicly that she would like to bring back Doctor Who, but the rights would likely be too thorny, fans hammered on BBCi's inbox with questions asking if they were sure they were okay legally. BBCi put up a page clearly explaining the status of the rights. BBCTV executives called in the head of BBCi demanding to know why he told the internet he thought he had the rights to make Doctor Who. He brought in all of his correspondence with legal that said it was alright. He left with the confidential information that the show was going to be returning to television. Suddenly the webcast BBCi was making because nobody else was ever going to do anything with Doctor Who on television again became a minor footnote next to the anniversary surprise that Doctor Who was returning to television in a few years' time.

This overreliance also led to instances where entertainers or video game producers were getting take-down notices for posting their own, original material, nevermind something like a Suspiciously Similar Song or a Standard Snippet that should be protected under Fair Use or public domain. Combinations of these technical difficulties and PR nightmares have led to the practices being slightly drawn back.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_ca08598f	comment	This is a major theme in The Wire. Time and again, organizations and people within those organizations fail to work together for the greater good of the whole due to personal ambition, poor communication, outright malice and simple incompetence. This is symbolized early on when the Major Crimes Unit cops fail to get a heavy and bulky desk through a doorway until they realize that both sides are trying to push the desk into the opposite room. More and more people kept coming in to help without anyone bothering to check or communicate what they were trying to do, and the result was about half of the officers trying to get it into the office and half trying to get it out, with it going nowhere the whole time. Late in season 2, the Sobotka detail's efforts to bring in one of the Greek's fences is hampered by the fact that Jay Landsman apprehended Ziggy for killing said fence, but failed to inform the detail. The detail have to learn about this through the newspaper. Daniels is not happy. Not limited to the police, as the Barksdale organization suffers from this in the second season as well. The group's Number Two, Stringer Bell made a deal with rival drug lord Prop Joe to share territory and product, but didn't tell Avon (the kingpin of the organization, who was in prison at that point), because he knew Avon needed more time before he could be convinced that this was the best path forward. Meanwhile Avon (without telling Stringer), used his connections to have Professional Killer Brother Mouzone come down to help the Barksdales defend their territory from "incursions" by Prop Joe and other gangs. Oops.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_f3732b8	comment	In Forspoken, Cuff's leaking ambient evil is the source of the Break and the Tantas' insanity, but he doesn't have any actual control over either, which is a challenge for him since he needs Frey to be his MacGuffin Delivery Service, which won't happen if she gets killed by a Break monster or one of the Tantas, and he needs the Tantas dead to take back the parts of his power they took for themselves. Hence why he actually helps the protagonist.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_f38f5664	comment	In The Lion Guard, Kion and the guard returned to the Pride Lands when they were told Zira and the outsiders were attacking. By the time they get there, the fight is over, Zira is dead, and the outlanders have joined Simbaâ€™s pride. Vitani, Ziraâ€™s daughter, makes her own Lion Guard to defend the Pride Lands. Kion and his guard plus the hyenas and vultures run into Vitaniâ€™s group and a fight ensues. Kionâ€™s guard still thinks Vitaniâ€™s is invading and Vitani assumes the same of Kionâ€™s group due to the outlanders with him. Neither group realizes theyâ€™re on the same side until Kiara arrives to stop Kion from using the roar and explain that they're on the same side.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_f4e799ee	comment	In the Burn Notice episode "Mind Games" Michael and Co. attempt to take down a loan shark. The first step of their plan: convince him that his trusted lieutenant is actually an undercover cop. Unfortunately, the guy actually is an undercover cop. So instead of framing him, they inadvertently blow his cover. Oops.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_f6093124	comment	Monstress: It's eventually shown that the Federation's army and navy are at complete ideological odds with each other. The army, which is run by if not completely composed of War Hawks, is very eager to restart the war with the Arcanics, and is thus aligned with the Cumea, who are pushing for that as well. By contrast, the navy's leadership is more reasonable and realistic about the cost of a war and are thus allied with the Prime Minister, who wants to maintain the peace as long as possible. The resulting political jockeying between these two factions feeds further into the series' Gambit Pileup. The Dawn and Dusk Courts are technically on the same side against the Federation, but each has its own agenda. This is best exemplified in the relationship between the Warlord and the Baroness after they get married to unite their respective military assets â€” aside from them not sharing information and running independent searches for Maika for their own reasons, during the siege of Ravenna the latter takes command of the former's air fleet to go after a separate target without letting her know in advance.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand / int_f9b9dfe4	comment	Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has a lot of this. Two nations are bound by a blood pact which forces them to work for the bad guys and apparently they can't even let the good guys (their former war buddies) know about it, even if they converse on the battlefield. Depending on the exact nature of the blood pacts though, most of that bloodshed probably would have had to happen even with good communication.

Hilarity Ensues, until eventually the bribe is consummated, and two groups of FBI men charge in. The first group grabs Dan and throws him to the ground, then the second group charges in:
