We Are Not Going Through That Again

The heroes just had the adventure of their lives and are finally relaxing after all perils they have faced. Suddenly, there's a knock on the door, or the phone rings or some indication of Here We Go Again as they find themselves apparently about to find themselves in more adventure.

But in this Ending Trope, the tired or alarmed heroes respond, "Forget it! We are not going through that again!" as they slam the door on their visitor, or hang up or go back to bed or run away. They have had all the adventure they could want and now they just want some peace and quiet.

This is a variant of Refusal of the Call, but only when it is at the end of the story and the call is clearly repeating the adventure they just experienced.

For the opposite, see Here We Go Again or And the Adventure Continues.
