When somebody is frozen in the middle of an action, they will always resume right where they left off in the middle of the action, often with hilarious results. May be a Brick Joke. When something is paused in the middle of a physical motion (as by magic), it sometimes retains its momentum when it's unpaused and sometimes loses it, usually depending on what would be funny or cool. Often a result of Time Stands Still. Can overlap with Waking Non Sequitur and may happen with Offscreen Inertia. Can also be invoked with a Time-Freeze Trolling Spree. |

Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid: When an anaconda carries Cole away, the others run after him and find it crushing him against a tree branch. After killing the snake, they administer CPR. Upon awakening, Cole starts right in on the terrified yelling he was presumably doing when crushed unconscious. | |

In the film Support Your Local Sheriff, James Garner escapes a brawl at a restaurant by yelling "Hold it!" and quietly stepping to one side, taking his food with him. Once he's out of harm's way, he says "Okay, go ahead on!" and the brawl resumes exactly where it stopped. | |

Near the end of The Colour of Magic, Rincewind and Twoflower's current captor uses a spell to freeze in midair a bottle hurled towards him, arresting its momentum. Eight hours later, when the spell wears off, he happens to be standing in the same spot... (Note that in TCOM this is intentional; the deity that the protagonists are speaking with specifically manipulates the laws of chance so that the bottle just happens to be in the exact place and time to hit the guard and allow them to escape.) | |

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. does a variant. Coulson and Ward are tossed off a train, and the bad guys throw a grenade after them, then the train disappears in front of their eyes. It's only in a flashback from another character's perspective that we discover the grenade actually paralyzed them for about an hour; the train rolled away at normal speed. | |

One Season 6 episode of Castle has the titular character called to hostage situation because the hostage-taker refuses to negotiate with anyone but him. Before he goes in, Castle dons his "Writer" Bulletproof Vest and is told to work the word "cheeseburger" into any of his phone calls in case he wants SWAT to storm the place. The whole things ends with the hostage-taker (accidentally) shooting Castle in the chest, knocking him unconscious for a minute or so. When he comes to, the first thing he does before he even opens his eyes is to scream "Cheeseburger!" at the top of his lungs, which he was probably about to do right before he was hit. As with most things in this series, it's completely Played for Laughs. | |

In an episode of the eighties Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, Donatello has invented a device that will freeze a person mid-action. Michaelangelo, skeptical, offers to test it out. He takes a leap into the air, and Donatello freezes him in mid jump. Donatello then tells the others that when Michaelangelo is unfrozen, he'll have no idea that any time has passed, and will probably say something like "See? I told you it wouldn't work!" Which is exactly what happens when he's unfrozen. | |

In the Justice League episode featuring Deadman, Superman gets possessed mid-sentence while talking about a restaurant in Smallville where "the milkshakes are so thick..." When he regains control of his body, Supe's first words are "...you have to eat them with a spoon! (glances around) What am I doing in Africa?" What makes the exchange even funnier is that, at the moment of possession, the first thing Deadman uses Superman's body to say is "I need your help," prompting odd glances from Batman and Wonder Woman. That's pretty thick, indeed. | |

Paranoia supplement Acute Paranoia, adventure "Me and My Shadow Mark IV". Markie (the Mark IV warbot) is talking to the PC's when a piece falls off of him, sending him into a catatonic state. When the piece is re-attached, Markie continues talking right where he left off. (It's a barometer. Having a piece missing messed with his superiority complex.) If they call him on it, he makes up a story about cosmic rays or something. If they keep pushing the issue, he blows them away with a tacnuke. | |

For example, when the "nightmare" of being pursued by cultists in the alps suddenly ends, he wakes up in a panic on his bed in London, as if just coming out of it... despite it being a day or two after these events, as discovered later. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Thor: Ragnarok: After years as the Champion of Sakaar, the Hulk is shaken into turning back into Bruce Banner by Thor playing a recording of Natasha in the Quinjet. The confused Bruce immediately asks if they saved the city, referencing the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron, and is surprised to hear it was two years ago. His consciousness had stayed entirely subsumed all the time Hulk was in control. (It's two years from Thor's viewpoint, but who knows how long in reality for Hulk, given how weirdly time works on Sakaar.) Ant-Man and the Wasp: After Janet has taken over Scott's mind from the Quantum Realm, Scott has no recollection of it. At first he reacts as if no time went by, and then he gets confused about how they left the control room and why Hank Pym is holding his hand. Avengers: Endgame: Per Peter's description after being undusted, the passage of time was nonexistent for all victims of the snap. He just felt dusty and then found himself after being brought back, presuming he must have passed out. All the dusted and un-snapped return at the same age and same state they were at that moment while the surviving half of the universe have aged five years ahead of them (with Doctor Strange the only one immediately aware of how much time has passed). This at least is useful for distinguishing who were "snapped" and who weren't. Since Spider-Man and his supporting cast at the end are the same age, they were among the dusted while Cassie Lang has gone from pre-teen to teenager. From Endgame, it is further explored as a gag in Spider-Man: Far From Home, where the school's marching band got dusted while playing in the basketball court, only to be brought back 5 years later exactly in the same court during the middle of a match. |

Dungeons & Dragons: The time stop spell stops time within a limited area. When it ends, the creatures inside have no idea any time has passed and continue acting as they were before. Rod of Inertia, the precursor of Immovable Rod back from Basic D&D (Companion Set) stops at one command and continues its movement on another. It also doubles as a spear +3... and yes, pre-set ambush/trap item was one of suggested uses — another being fall-stopping perch. |

Farscape. In the Season One episode "Throne for a Loss", Aeryn wants to go and rescue Rygel from the trigger-happy mercenaries holding him prisoner, and volunteers Crichton to come along. Crichton is nowhere near the badass he'll become in later seasons, so naturally he suggests they negotiate instead until Aeryn knocks him out with a "Pantak Jab". He wakes up in her Prowler on the way down to the planet trying to continue his conversation. | |

Stargate SG-1: At the beginning of the episode "Urgo", the team is going through the Stargate while O'Neill is making some joking aside. When they emerge from the event horizon, O'Neill is pursuing his monologue... except they're back at the SGC after a three-hour timelapse, and have no memory of visiting another planet. There is also the running gag of someone (usually O'Neill) being teleported mid-sentence by the Asgard. Upon arriving on the alien ship or back on Earth, they usually conclude whatever they were saying before looking around in annoyance. A very funny instance is of Carter yelling at Thor to not teleport her, only to pop up right back at the SGC in General O'Neill's office, who is quite puzzled by the sudden, shouting apparition. |

The Goodies. Graham Garden is working on an antidote to his New Improved Snooze, a sleeping draught that's so effective it's put most of Britain to sleep. Deciding to test the antidote himself, he takes a swig of New Improved Snooze, then goes to drink the antidote only to fall asleep. Hilarity Ensues as he then goes sleepwalking across the country, but Tim revives him and pours the antidote down his throat. Graham wakes up and immediately goes to take a swig of New Improved Snooze as part of his experiment, only to be stopped by an alarmed Tim. | |

Saved by the Bell has a Running Gag where Zack would say "Time out!", causing the other characters to freeze in place. Although this was normally only used only to address the audience, Zack wasn't above occasionally messing with the scene while it was frozen, such as using it to escape a punch (Mr. Belding, who had been behind him, got hit instead). | |

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: In the very first scene, some unknown calamity freezes the world around Noah. At the end of the game, we find out that this was the moment the two worlds collided. The worlds were frozen into Aionios, an "Endless Now" where no one had to confront the unknown future, for hundreds if not thousands of years. Once the Origin system is started again, separating the worlds as originally intended, the last scene has the world unpausing without anyone seeming to notice that anything happened. | |

In Rango, Beans has occasional catatonic fits. When she snaps out of them, she continues with whatever she was saying as if nothing had happened. Sometimes it's entirely different topics, such as Alien Abduction.

One Piece: A variation occurs with Foxy's Slow-Slow Beam, which allows him to slow down people/objects for 30 seconds. While slowed down, the target will appear to be doing the same thing, even if, say, a huge, powerful fist flies right into their face. When Hancock first appeared, she used her powers to turn a bunch of marines to stone as they were calling her name. A few episodes later she turned them back, resulting in them calling out "-cock-sama". |

Avengers: Endgame: Per Peter's description after being undusted, the passage of time was nonexistent for all victims of the snap. He just felt dusty and then found himself after being brought back, presuming he must have passed out. All the dusted and un-snapped return at the same age and same state they were at that moment while the surviving half of the universe have aged five years ahead of them (with Doctor Strange the only one immediately aware of how much time has passed). This at least is useful for distinguishing who were "snapped" and who weren't. Since Spider-Man and his supporting cast at the end are the same age, they were among the dusted while Cassie Lang has gone from pre-teen to teenager. | |

When the field lapses the ships don't know that time has stopped and continue maneuvering as they were before the field took effect.

Doctor Who: In "The Ark in Space", the Fourth Doctor attempts to talk Noah into shutting down the stack before the creature feeding off its energy is strong enough to break out, causing Noah to blast him unconscious with a stun pistol ("If you'd been down there with me, Noah, y—"). After several minutes of plot has elapsed, Sarah wakes him and he announces, "—ou wouldn't find it so amusing." He then complains he was "cut off mid-sentence! I could have been saying something important.... I was saying something important." Played for laughs when the Doctor has to leave Rory to take The Slow Path guarding the Pandorica. The Doctor warns Rory about various perils, concluding with "and however bored you get, stay out of—" before he's abruptly transported away. Rory must have spent almost 2000 years wondering what the Doctor was warning him about. However the last word was only "trouble", which the audience hears when the Doctor arrives at his destination in the present day. |

Used in the short term in Kill la Kill, where Aikuro briefly paralyzes Mako in the middle of one of her rambles with an acupuncture needle to give Ryuko some advice. She continues to ramble after he removes the needle and re-dons his disguise. | |

In the "Art Museum" episode of The Upside Down Show, Shane has a moment of artistic inspiration when he sees Mrs. Foil standing behind his transparent drawing complimenting it, and has the viewer use their Universal Remote Control to pause her mid-word to add to his art. He then has the viewer unpause her when he wants to hear her input, with her picking right back up where she left off. | |

Wander over Yonder: When Wander is constantly interrupting Hater from getting his once-a-millenium wish from a celestial building, he shuts him up in the middle of saying, "You always have to take a silly one, 'ca—", leading to the Wasteful Wishing. Once the wish ends, Wander resumes right where he left off: "—'cause a silly photo shows you're havin' fun." | |

In Charmed, this is Piper's primary witch power, to Freeze and Un-Freeze things and people. While useful for combating demons and warlocks, she uses it mostly to get a handle on various arguments between people or just to get a breather. | |
