abstract | - Situation especially common in Final Battles where members of the cast slowly pick each other off until only a few characters are left alive. The last hero will beat the Big Bad and, somehow, find a way to bring the defeated or dead characters back to normal so they can all participate in one final all-out battle. Using this trope is risky because it can seem like a copout -- or worse, it can seem to undo an entire season of being unafraid of killing off characters. Doing it more than once is not unheard of but frowned upon. When writers know this is coming, it often leads to applications of the Second Law of Metafictional Thermodynamics.
