comment
A character receives some shocking news while holding a (usually breakable and valuable) object. The news causes them to drop the object, and we follow it in close up with the camera overcranked (slow-motion shot) all the way to the floor.
For extra credit, finish the shot with a slow-motion shot of the object shattering, with synchronized slow motion sound effects. For extra extra credit, throw in a Slow "NO!" and/or an attempted Desperate Object Catch while all of this is happening.
Subtrope of Dramatic Drop.
Compare with Slow-Motion Fall, Dramatic Shattering.

Sherlock, In Season 3 Episode 2 of Sherlock, "The Sign of Three", Sherlock is the best man at John Watson's wedding. He talks about an unsolved murder of a Royal Guard that was killed in a locked shower stall with no weapon found. At the end of his speech Sherlock remembers something he heard while investigating the case and drops a wine glass in slow-mo when he realizes that the killer is at the wedding and must be in the room.

This is one of many tropes frequently played up for melodrama on Clone High. In one example, Abe falls asleep during a standardized test, dropping his #2 pencil slowly to the floor, where it shatters (?) into four pieces.

The anime adaptation of Rurouni Kenshin does a variant slo-mo drop for a bead of sweat during the Kenshin vs. Soujirou battle: the camera follows a drop of cold sweat roll off Yumi's face, and by the time it splashes on the floor, the two combatants have already traded an insane amount of blows.

In The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Aragorn has a dream about Arwen dying and him dropping the Evenstar (which seems to represent Arwen's immortality), which breaks. In a much later scene in the Extended Edition, Aragorn looks into the Palantír to face Sauron, and he shows him the same scene of Arwen dying, to which he freaks out and steps back, dropping the Evenstar just as he had seen in the dream.

In an episode of The Simpsons, Marge buys a $400 bag to show off with and plans to return it as soon as possible. When Homer takes her to a expensive restaurant, he bites into a sauce-covered shrimp and a tiny speck of the sauce splashes onto Marge's bag, much to her horror.

Heroes:
Averted at the end of Season 2. The vial with strain 138 A is telekinetically caught by Peter right before it falls to the ground. This happens only because the writers' strike caused the devs to end the season prematurely; in the original version, the vial crashes to the floor in a spectacular display of this trope.
Played straight to the point of parody in season 1, when Sylar attempts to telekinetically carve open Peter Petrelli's skull, and his bangs fall to the ground with a disproportionately loud boom.

Run Lola Run:
It appeared to be initially subverted when Manni flings a red bag of stolen money into the air just before a twitchy poltzei shoots Lola in the chest. The bag isn't seen again throughout the dying scene. After a flashback and Lola's epiphany, then the bag is shown falling in slow motion, match cut with the falling of Lola's red telephone at the beginning.
This is played a little straighter later, when Lola drops a green bag of robbery money on witnessing Manni's shocking death, but again, the bag isn't actually seen hitting the ground. After another flashback and Manni's epiphany, the bag is seen falling from beneath before cutting to the telephone again.
The initial shot of the red phone spinning through the air in slow motion is the straight example. The camera cuts between its flight and Lola's face before dropping neatly into its cradle at the point that Lola comes to a decision.

The West Wing has this when Zoey is kidnapped. For added pathos (or Narm), the news is delivered while the Bartlets have family friends visiting and just after Zoey graduated from college; the President of the United States is looking through a collection of baby photos of Zoey as he's told about it, and they're what he drops.
Immediately followed by a Dramatic Shattering as the drink he was holding in his other hand smashes, in fast motion, on top of the stack of pictures, as he looks around at Abbey with a stricken look on his face. It may also be worth noting that the drop and shatter are how we know that he's learned the news, since there's no sound in this part of the scene.

The Daily Drop was a web series that was nothing but a new Slow Motion Drop every week. They vary from satisfyingly destructive (a toy robot dog gets the everloving crap beaten out of it), through otherworldly (Kooshes turn into alien life forms), to verging on comedic sociopathy (they drop a live cat, which lands safely. Then comes "Crowbar Is Ready"... at which point they throw up their hands and say "Nah.")

At the end of the final battle between D and Meier Link in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Leila takes Charlotte's ring and tosses it at the floor. The camera follows it as it slowly, slooowly comes down, leaving a trail of after-images, interspersed with flashes of D and Meier Link fighting. When the ring bounces off the floor, the camera follows it up and down again. And it continues to follow as it rolls on its side and D picks it up on the edge of his sword.

Babylon 5, with a snow globe being held by Delenn, on seeing that Sheridan's wife, previously thought dead, has stepped into his quarters.
We actually see it happen three times in as many episodes. Once as a Flash Forward, with the camera focusing on Delenn and a woman's voice off-screen saying "Hello." Then we see it again when it actually happens, again without knowing why Delenn was so shocked. Then in the next episode, they show that clip again as a Previously on…, but then this time finally provide the full context. Viewers had to wait half a season to find out why that damn snow globe was dropped. note Though some astute viewers were able to guess, due to J. Michael Straczynski dropping a very subtle hint.
