Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends: Difference between revisions

* This trope appears to be Nora Ephron's bread and butter. In ''[[Sleepless in Seattle]]'', {{spoiler|Annie Reed and Walter come a mutual agreement that they are not all that in love and part amicably, leaving Annie free to hook up with Sam later that very night}}. Meanwhile, in ''[[You've Got Mail]]'', {{spoiler|Joe gives the boot to his shrill and unlikable girlfriend Patricia after being trapped in an elevator with her. Kathleen and Frank mutually agree that they are not all that in love and break off their engagement, leaving Kathleen free to hook up with Joe within a few weeks.}}

* ''[[Sky High]]''... dear lord ''[[Sky High]]''. At the climax of the film, pseudo-antagonist Warren Peace randomly hooks up with a girl who has ice powers and appears onscreen for exactly ten seconds prior, where she demonstrates said powers on two other students. Zero interaction between the two before this but hey, apparently [[All Girls Want Bad Boys|the bad boys need love too.]] Plus, fire and ice? [[Sarcasm Mode|What a twist!]]
