In fictionland, anyone caught unawares may be easily, instantaneously and noiselessly incapacitated with a single blow to the head (or alternatively, a karate chop to the neck). A character thus treated will usually be [[Hard Head|perfectly fine afterwards]]; at worst they may have a headache, dizziness, slightly blurred vision, or in the very worst cases, [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|laser guided amnesia]], or find themselves [[Strapped to An Operating Table|strapped to a table]] when they wake up. Minus the last two points, this will in no way hinder them for the rest of the plot.
