{{IndexTrope}}

You can't generalize on how people will behave. Even [[Too Dumb to Live|basic survival instincts]] are frequently [[Crosses the Line Twice|(and humorously!)]] [[Subverted Trope|subverted]] in [[Real Life]]; and [[Hidden Depths]] or a [[Mysterious Past]] mean characters have a lot of [[Out-of-Character Moment|leeway]] to act [[Out of Character]]. However... there are many things people are still ''unlikely'' to do, especially when previous characterization has given them [[Informed Ability|some measure of an attribute]] in contradiction to their new behaviour.

 

Below are a list of tropes relating the different ways characters break [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]] by pulling a 180 and doing really weird, nonsenseical and/or stupid. Why does this happen? Two reasons: the author sucks, and [[Rule of Drama|drama requires them to.]]

* [[Contrived Stupidity Tropes]]

* [[Dying Like Animals]]

* [[Poor Communication Kills]]
