A character has a stutter or a stammer, and it affects how he communicates with others... badly. But then, usually at some key dramatic moment, his stammer disappears and he is able to speak with surprisingly smooth and eloquent diction. This is often Truth in Television, as many stutterers don't stutter at all (or do it much less) if they're acting, singing, or talking about something they know well. See also Porky Pig Pronunciation, Alternate Catchphrase Inflection, and Delusions of Eloquence. Can overlap with O.O.C. Is Serious Business if other characters consider their unhindered speech unusual. |

Wonder Woman (1942): When Byrna is truly furious her stutter all but disappears, as is shown when she volunteers to join Villainy Inc. She is understandably pissed at being imprisoned in a foreign country when all her crimes happened within the United States and strapped into a mind washing device that forced her to obey her captors and tried to force her to be happy about it. She's also the most clear example of the Aphrodite Girdle's failing, as she was able to fight off all the effects but obedience and secretly rebuild and improve on her arsenal and armor while imprisoned on Reformation Island. | |

Rick and Morty: The flashback at the beginning of "Unmortricken" shows that Evil Morty—who has never stammered in his previous appearances set in the present day—did in fact used to have the same anxious, stuttering voice as every other Morty. We see the moment he permanently drops the stutter completely as the first sign that he's snapped after putting up with his Rick's abuse for so long. | |

Professor Mmaa's Lecture: The termite Dr. Brillat-Beetonin, afflicted with a stutter which makes him into an anxious Nervous Wreck, eventually loses it apparently by sheer force of will and becomes a charismatic rebellious leader. He gains large amounts of power and influence until suddenly an actual crisis strikes the termite mound, at which point he panics and goes back to his old stutter, and presumably old personality. | |

Michael Palin's character K-k-k-Ken in A Fish Called Wanda has a terrible stutter throughout the movie. It vanishes when he gets his revenge on Otto, his major adversary, at the end of the movie. Final credits reveal he now works as an MC at Sea World. In an earlier scene, Jamie Lee Curtis' character kisses him while to get some information out of him, leaving him ironically un-tongue-tied for a few moments afterwards. Palin actually did quite a bit of research on how stuttering works in real life and incorporated it into his performance. Ken's stutter is not as bad when he's around people he's comfortable with (Wanda and George), and becomes worse when Otto (whom he can't stand and is scared of) is around. |

The title character of I, Claudius eventually trains himself so that he largely loses his stutter. What makes it fit this well is that he had achieved this well before most people thought he had... and so right up until becoming Roman Emperor, he's still seen as poor, stupid, stuttering C-C-C-Claudius. Soon after, he drops the Obfuscating Stupidity, much to his enemies' dismay. | |

Lieutenant Reginald Barclay in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager had a few scenes like this. It was usually evidence that he was really certain about what he was saying, but just couldn't get the words out. It wasn't nervousness that caused his stammer, it was his utter comprehension of the danger of the situation they were in. Although on some occasions it was evidence he'd been hit by the Negative Space Wedgie and was Not Himself. |
