Have You Told Anyone Else?: Difference between revisions

 

{{quote|'''Joshua the Groundskeeper:''' Who else saw you come in?

 

Something's bothering you. You did some poking around, and you discovered a clue that just doesn't match up with what you know about the situation at large. It's almost as if your team has stumbled upon some sort of [[Evil Plan]]. So you decide to run this information past your trusted ally, [[Sdrawkcab Name|Nialliv]]. He listens, perhaps admits that this does indeed sound suspicious, and then casually asks: "Have you told anyone else?"

 

{{examples}}

* In ''20th Century Boys'' detective Chou has made a startling discovery about the the leader of an enigmatic cult named 'Friend'. Turns out the leader is actually {{spoiler|a childhood classmate of our peppy main character Kenji.}} Unfortunately he decided to discuss the matter with his assistant Yama first. Needless to say Yama turns out to be a member of said cult and "purified him." Making it even more tragic is the fact that Chou was [[Retirony|just one week away from retirement]].

* {{spoiler|Naomi Misora}} ''almost'' averts this in ''[[Death Note]]'', but almost doesn't cut it when your opponent is a [[Xanatos Speed Chess|Xanatos Speed]] [[The Chessmaster|Chessmaster]] who can kill you by writing your name on a scrap of paper.

 

== Live Action TV ==

* On ''[[Charmed]]'', Cole, in his role as a [[Big Bad]], asks this of one of his [[Mooks]] who reported some information to Cole that was incriminating to Cole's reputation. When the mook answers no, Cole [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|vanquishes him to keep him from telling anyone else.]]

** Note that this mook told him the information with plenty of other people in the room...so Cole kills them all.
