Line 208:
* [[Only a Flesh Wound]]: In his final battle with Count Rugen, Inigo twice deflects sword thrusts into his shoulder and yet seems to show no visible effect from it.
* [[Only Mostly Dead]]: [[Trope Namer]]. After Humperdinck kills Westley, his friends take him to Miracle Max, who diagnoses him as “only mostly dead” and thus a candidate for revival.
* [[Opposite Gender Protagonists]]: Buttercup and Westley. The two leads instantly fall in love in the first three minutes of the movie, and Westley's departure makes Buttercup worry about when he will return. Buttercup is put into an [[Arranged Marriage]] as Westley never returned and gets kidnapped, starting the conflict. Eventually, the two meet up again, and they help each other through their adventures, bringing them closer together, leading up to a [[Big Damn Kiss]].
* [[Our Hero Is Dead]]: {{spoiler|Well, it just so happens that your friend here is only mostly dead. There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead.}}
* [[Out-Gambitted]]: Go ahead and go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line {{spoiler|if you are immune to a poison you are using}}.
