Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO SelfCloak. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Examples of Partner-in-Crime Who Got Caught Blackmails Partner-in-Crime Who Got Away with It include:


Exactly What It Says On The Tin: Alice and Bob were doing something illegal together. Alice got caught, didn't rat out Bob, and then served her sentence or escaped. Bob didn't get caught, and has usually gotten very successful in his career. Alice comes to Bob and blackmails him: help Alice do something illegal, or she'll tell on Bob.

Needs A Better (and shorter) Name.

Examples:

  • In the novel Night Heron, they were Chinese citizens, spying for British Intelligence.
  • In Blake's 7, brilliant hacker Avon was caught trying to steal a million credits, and sentenced to a prison colony. In the episode "Killer," he blackmails his partner-in-crime for assistance with one of Blake's guerrilla-warfare schemes against the Federation.
