Something the writers want to keep secret from the audience may be referred to using only pronouns or, when necessary, sufficiently ambiguous nouns, ignoring that this sounds ridiculous. A favorite tactic of some shadowy councils. Can occur no matter how secret the discussion is from other actual characters. Often such pronoun substitutes become emphasized by characters using it, conveying that they're aware of what they're doing and that they're not simply continuing an earlier conversation. Despite the lack of context, other parties to the talk have no trouble figuring out just what "that" or "him" is being referred to. The Japanese language makes it possible to drop subjects and objects from sentences entirely, making this a popular trope in anime (but headache-inducing for the translators). Subtrope of Cryptic Conversation. Whenever Vagueness Is Coming, it -er- this trope is usually invoked. See also Unspoken Plan Guarantee, Pronoun Trouble, and The Scottish Trope. Contrast As You Know, when the conversation is more expository than it would be in real life, and "Burly Detective" Syndrome, when flowery, descriptive epithets rather than vague nouns are used instead of names. Not to be confused with You Know The One Where, which formerly described this wiki's Trope Launch Pad. |

You Know the One / int_34dd5f3 | comment |
Likewise, La Résistance against Voldemort, the Order of the Phoenix, is never named until its proper introduction in the 5th book, to which it gives its name. | |

Big Bad | |
You Know the One / int_970c790a | comment |
The Big Bad of the Guilty Gear series is always referred to as "That Man." Guilty Gear 2: Overture lessens the effect, if only slightly, by occasionally referring to him as the "Gear Maker" instead. | |
