Line 2:
Normally, light moves so fast that it seemingly instantly jumps from point A to point B, or at least faster than the eye can follow. Not when this trope comes into action. In this case, you can see light bounce all over the place instead of instantly seeing the new setup.
When applied to beam/laser weapons, may overlap with [[Painfully Slow Projectile]] and/or [[Frickin' Laser Beams]], depending on just how slow the light goes.
Sometimes done for effect in [[Bullet Time]], or to establish causality for the viewer's convenience. Can be used to show off a [[Light and Mirrors Puzzle]]
