@sloopjonb1960 I do like a trope that takes an unexpected turn. But often the unexpected turn is the writer leading the reader to believe a trope will play out, and then it never happens, e.g. the only one bed trope is foreshadowed, but there ends up being plenty of beds (probably to the relief/disappointment of the POV character).
