Line 8:
When the action takes place before the beginning of the series, the flashback is often used to show [[Everyone Meets Everyone|how the characters met]]. Occasionally, it will be combined with [[A Day in the Limelight]], showing the true depths of a character while at the same time letting the audience see what made this person be like they are.
When the flashbacks consist of previously recorded footage, you get a [[Clip Show]]. If someone is telling the episode's story because they're being interrogated about it, you have [[Interrogation as Framing Device]].
Specific variants: [[How We Got Here]] and [[The Rashomon]].
