'''Basic Trope''': Making a ShoutOut by way of spoiling the events of the work.
* '''Straight''': Alice mentions in a conversation with Bob that ''Film/CitizenKane'' ends in the reveal that [[ItWasHisSled Rosebud was the name of Charles Foster Kane's sled]].
* '''Exaggerated''':
** Alice recaps the entire events of ''Citizen Kane''.
** A RunningGag consists of Alice spoiling a major plot point of another work.
* '''Downplayed''':
** Instead of revealing a movie's twist ending, Alice instead talks about something that happened roughly halfway through the movie.
** Alice doesn't say outright what the plot twist is, but heavily hints at it.
* '''Justified''': Alice has seen the movie, and is [[TheGadfly intentionally spoiling it for Bob]].
* '''Inverted''': Alice says what happens at the beginning of the movie.
* '''Subverted''':
** Alice is about to reveal the ending... but Bob stops her, because he wants to see the movie.
** Alice tells Bob the ending of the movie, but her explanation is full of BlatantLies.
* '''Double Subverted''':
** Alice tells him the ending anyway.
** Alice was spoiling the events of a different movie.
* '''Parodied''': ???
* '''Zig-Zagged''': ???
* '''Averted''':
** The work makes a ShoutOut, but doesn't bring up any major spoilers.

** "We should add a joke about how annoying it is when people spoil the endings![[note]]...[[HypocriticalHumor while spoiling the ending ourselves, of course]].[[/note]]"
