Line 1:
{{trope}}
Two characters, maybe friends, maybe not, are skulking separately through back streets, participating in a [[Bar Brawl]] or some other combat situation. They back into each other, whirl, point weapons at each other -- thenother—then shout, simultaneously, "[[You!]]"
 
{{examples}}
* Variation in ''[[The Lion King]]'': Nala tries to hunt down Pumbaa, but Simba comes to rescue. They start a badass lion fight for some seconds, then Simba loses again and says "Nala!?".
* Parodied in ''[[Hsu and Chan]]''. When the titular Tanaka brothers encounter their lifelong rivals, Akira Yamamoto and his father, each of them says "YOU!" at least once, prompting a passerby to say, "...Me?". Chan slaps him upside the head and shoos him away so the confrontation can begin in earnest.
* Something similar to this happens in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode "Partners in Crime", in which the Doctor and Donna meet for a second time--excepttime—except they do it in mime, through a window.
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' demonstrates this (albeit silently) with Buffy and Riley in "Hush".
* [[Aladdin (Disney film)|"They're after me! They're after you?!"]]
