Line 4:
The implication isn't usually that there's any kind of mystical connection between the different versions of you. It's just that whatever you're saying is so characteristic of you that any possible version of you would have said it at that time.

== Film ==
* A bizarre version occurs in [[Bill and Ted|Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey]]; the two ''aren't'' the same person, but they're so close in personality they might as well be; so when they split off to propose to the [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Princesses|princesses]], they read out the same speech, changing only the basic metaphor (one of them uses ocean life, the other forest; they even both have a 'no, that's fresh water' / 'no, that's the desert' moment in unison.
* Similar to the above [[Bill and Ted]] trope, but for a blink-and-you'll-miss-it [[Not So Different]]: In ''[[Treasure Planet]]'', when Jim is put in Silver's care, both pinch the bridge of their respective noses at the exact same time, then look up with the same expression.
 
Line 33:
* Done with actions in ''[[Heroes (TV)|Heroes]]'', such as Hiro being in the background of Young!Hiro as both push up their glasses at the same time in the same way.
* ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'':
** When Mickey and his parallel-universe counterpart Rickey are running away from Cybermen in "The Age of Steel", they stop to catch their breath and each go off in [[One Scene, Two Monologues|their own panicked monologue]], culminating in a unison recitation of "They know where we are!"
** Done again in Series 6, with The 11th Doctor and "11.5", a clone created from sentient goo. They both have all the same memories and thought processes, leading to them almost always finishing the other one's sentences and saying the same thing at the same time. They actually don't mind, but it annoys Amy.
* Played for drama in ''[[Farscape (TV)|Farscape]]'', when {{spoiler|Crichton}} gets twinned, and the two talk and think so alike that when they resort to [[Rock -Paper -Scissors]] to decide which one is real, they end up spending several hours tied, before giving up. {{spoiler|After one of them dies and sends the other a holographic message, it ends with the hologram and living one playing [[Rock -Paper -Scissors]] and ending up tied again.}}
* In the ''[[Red Dwarf (TV)|Red Dwarf]]'' episode "The Inquisitor", Lister gets replaced by an alternative version of himself who never got to exist. When they meet each other, the original Lister is in the middle of trying to convince Rimmer of who he is, and the two end up chorusing "Rimmer, for smeg's sake!"
