* ''Film/CommandoCodySkyMarshalOfTheUniverse'' (1953 FilmSerial). Dick Preston, the copilot for Cody's rocketship, does this all the time, except at the [[EverybodyLaughsEnding end of one chapter]] where Cody asks him to repeat some {{Technobabble}} he's just spouted off, only for Dick to admit that he can't.

* In ''Film/GalaxyQuest'', and the ShowWithinAShow at its core, Gwen's character's role was to liaise between the captain and the computer, even though the computer can hear anything said on the ship and vice versa. When on the ship in real life, she is frustrated at the pointlessness of the job but insists on doing it anyway, since it's the only one she has.

When on the ship in real life, she is frustrated at the pointlessness of the job but insists on doing it anyway, since it's the only one she has. (Although it turns out to be slightly less pointless than it was on the show; while everyone can still hear the computer just fine, the extremely LiteralMinded Thermians have rigged it so the computer only responds to verbal commands when given by Gwen. Because, they presumably figured, why else would she have to repeat everyone else's commands?)

* A plot point in the novel of ''2001: A Space Odyssey''. Frank Poole is performing an EVA and instructs HAL to adjust the angle of a spotlight so he can better see what he's doing. Aboard the main ship, Dave Bowman notices something odd but it takes him a moment to realise what it is. "Hal had executed the order, but he had not acknowledged it, as he invariably did. When Poole had finished, they'd have to look into this." However he never gets the chance as that's the moment that [[spoiler:HAL kills Poole and tries to kill Bowman, too.]]

* ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine''
** Justified in "For the Uniform". The ''Defiant's'' computer memory was wiped by a virus Michael Eddington planted, so a lot of systems aren't working right, including communications, which is a problem because due to the ''other'' malfunctions, the bridge will need to stay in contact with Engineering. O'Brien's solution is to put Nog on the bridge with a portable communicator and have him relay any necessary information to and from Engineering, which results in a number of instances of Nog audibly repeating Sisko's orders.
** In "Valiant", the Red Squad cadets do this to excess, subtly highlighting their inexperience at running a ship.

** It's worth noting that on the real life ship the computer tends to ignore anyone else attempting to speak to it, making Gwen's job slightly less useless.
