Line 16:
One of the [[Money Tropes]]. Closely related to [[Broken Treasure]], where a borrowed ''possession'' is lost or broken, leading to similar problems. If the ill-advised borrowing is from a suspiciously helpful stranger, they will probably turn out to be [[All Devouring Black Hole Loan Sharks]].

== [[Film]] ==
* Subverted in ''[[A Bronx Tale]]''. Calogero is owed twenty dollars by a casual acquaintance, which escalates into such a tense issue that the kid ends up just running every time he sees "C" coming. C is venting about this one day to his [[Anti -Villain|men]][[Sensei for Scoundrels|tor]] Sonny, who asks C if he even particularly ''liked'' the guy to begin with. C replies that he never really did, and Sonny points out that he's free to just forget about it if he wants -- the other kid will continue avoiding C in order to avoid repaying the debt. "He's out of your life for twenty dollars."
