Line 2: '''Basic Trope''': A character appears to have died, but is later revealed to be alive. * '''Straight''': Walter performs a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] so that Lilly can escape the [[Collapsing Lair]]. However, he was saved at the last second by a pixie [[Laser -Guided Karma\|they had helped earlier]]. * '''Exaggerated''': ** Walter gets turned into a fine red mist courtesy of [[Big Bad\|Emperor Evulz]], only to spontaneously develop the power to heal [[From a Single Cell]]. Line 22: * '''Averted''': Walter dies in a very definitive way, with [[Sorting Algorithm of Deadness\|no ground for misinterpretation]]. * '''Enforced''': It's a children's movie, so everyone who dies (not including the bad necessarily) comes back later. * '''Lampshaded''': "Golly gee Walter, you never seem to [[Never Say "Die"\|get ki]]-- hurt! You must win the lottery every time you buy a ticket, you're so lucky!" * '''Invoked''': Walter knows he's going to die, but to keep Lilly from losing hope he acts as though he'll come back later. Alternately, he [[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall\|notes that]] in stories like this, the brave character nobly sacrificing himself usually turns up fine later, and wouldn't it be a shame if the [[Moral Guardians]] found out otherwise? * '''Defied''': Walter [[Death Seeker\|wants to die]] for whatever reason, and purposely goes out with a bang to make sure the threat is taken care of and he doesn't come back. * '''Discussed''': "Walter, we don't live in one of your children's stories where no one ever dies! If you do something reckless or stupid to be heroic, you'll really die!"
