* Tony Jr., who was on the first Frosted Flakes boxes with his father Tony (who replaced Katy the Kangaroo). He disappeared in 1956, only to come back as a [[Brick Joke]] in 1977 as the mascot of Frosted Rice.

* [[Aerith and Bob|Bob and Quienno]], the other two chefs of Cinnamon Toast Crunch; the most common and accepted of [[Epileptic Trees]] is that Wendell killed them.

* There was a British TV campaign in which an alien from the planet Zarg claimed his world was dying and could only be saved by a soft drink called Quosh. Nothing was ever heard from Zarg again, and one can only fear the worst.

 

== Films -- Live Action ==

* In ''The Short Second life of Bree Tanner'', Freaky Fred runs away before the newborn army is sent to fight the Cullens. He is never mentioned again in the series, even though the novella ends with Bree mentally begging Edward to be kind to Fred if they ever meet.

* [[Eddie Izzard]]'s Dress to Kill tour featured the 'Firework joke' which he repeatedly references throughout his performance then ends the show without telling it. It's lampshaded by several people in the audience who immediately begin asking for it. He doesn't.

 

** What more, the book revealed the Mana-Ko, formerly believed to be beastial guardians of the [[Big Bad]], were actually secret double agents for the Order (good guys), and would be called into war. The war did happen, but they were never mentioned again.

 

 

== Web Comics ==

* [[The Nostalgia Critic]] invokes this trope with his "but what happened to Boomer?" rants in various movie reviews, everytime a character's fate, especially if it was a dog, is not resolved in a movie, at least for a while. If it is before the end credits roll, a short "Boomer will live!" scene is shown. Boomer was a pet dog in one of the reviewed movies.
