- He's in a dangerous or uncomfortable situation with other people who are less experienced or trustworthy than him, and he wants to make some things seriously clear. So he bluntly declares a numbered list of "rules" for the situation. Beginning, of course, with Rule Number One, and following it with Rule Number Two, and so forth. The implication of setting out these rules, and providing a semblance of structure by numbering them, is that they are resolute and unquestionable, and that breaking these rules will lead to dire consequences. There Are No Rules is a subversion.

- He's in a dangerous or uncomfortable situation with other people who are less experienced or trustworthy than him, and he wants to make some things seriously clear. So he bluntly declares a numbered list of "rules" for the situation. Beginning, of course, with Rule Number One, and following it with Rule Number Two, and so forth. The implication of setting out these rules, and providing a semblance of structure by numbering them, is that they are resolute and unquestionable, and that breaking these rules will lead to dire consequences. Of course, the character could just be using this stock phrase rhetorically, and simply conveying advice or admonishments. A recent version of this trope has become so popular that nowadays, 90% of these will be Stock Shout-Outs to Fight Club -- "Rule Number One of [X]: You do not talk about [X]" and/or "Rule Number One: [Y]. Rule Number Two: [Y]!" There Are No Rules is a subversion. The Thieves' Guild most often has each of its members adhere to certain numbered rules. For the other Rule Number One, see Badass Grandpa. Characters who live by The Rules are obviously on the Lawful side of Character Alignment, but there's nothing stopping them from being Lawful Good or Lawful Evil. In fact, expect the latter from the Obstructive Bureaucrat who can cite pretty much any Rule that justifies him/her not doing anything remotely reasonable or helpful. Examples of Rule Number One include:
