For extra points, add video to the transmission, and have it cut to snow a split second after you catch a glimpse of the horrible monsters that did the deed.
 
Essentially, it's an [[Apocalyptic Log]] broadcast live in real-time. It's a convenient way to pull off a dramatic, emotional death scene while the people on the other end conveniently can't do anything about it. It's also an excellent way to add drama when [[Mission Control]] doesn't actually know what did the killing -- butkilling—but now they know that whatever it is, it's obviously deadly.
 
This trope is often used in place of a [[Violence Discretion Shot]], though many times the violence on the victim's end ''is'' actually shown.
