Suddenly Shouting

"Do not let my calm demeanor fool you, RANGER!"

— Marshal Stacker Pentecost, Pacific Rim

Describe Suddenly Shouting Here AS IF IT ISN'T ENTIRELY OBVIOUS!!!

Two characters are carrying on a conversation. Alice says something. Bob responds in his regular voice, but then SUDDENLY, HE'S SHOUTING!

Typically happens for one of three reasons:

• Anger: Something Alice said just really infuriates Bob, or perhaps simply made an already bad mood worse. Often this is preceded by other visual cues of anger, such as a twitching eye, giving the impression that despite his feelings Bob is still trying to maintain some sense of composure before finally giving in and letting loose with an impassioned tirade.
• Surprise / Fear: Bob is carrying on as normal, when suddenly a cold, dead hand settles on his shoulder, or someone sets off an explosive in his presence, or something else happens that he just didn't or couldn't expect. Often accompanied by an upward shift in pitch.
• Drama: Bob is naturally a Large Ham and wants you to know that what he is revealing is quite important, no matter how mundane it may actually be. This is a technique actually used by army trainers when scolding trainees, to keep them on their toes and to vary the tempo of the berating.

Compare Careful with That Axe and Last Note Nightmare, which apply a similar sort of logic to music. Sometimes overlaps with Punctuated! For! Emphasis!, Bait-and-Switch Comment, or HA HA HA—No.

• The Catcher in the Rye: Holden is a loud boy who is prone to screaming, even if he doesn't intend to. His Sanity Slippage also leads him to scream a lot.
• In The Divine Comedy, the voices floating through Purgatory's second terrace are at first quiet and soothing, but at a certain point, the voices turn loud as thunder and start following one after another.

• Harry Potter:
  • Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Fake Moody does this whenever he says "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!"
  • Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: The infamous scene in Grimmauld Place where Harry starts shouting at Ron and Hermione, rendered as a full page of dialogue in block capitals. It's even a meta example: in the American version, the shouting starts at the top of the page, which means that readers, after getting through a rather sedate conversation, are suddenly assaulted by an eye-searing passage when they turn the page.
• Taylor Mali's poem "I'll Fight You For The Library" is a series of four letters written by an English teacher who finds out that his classes' reservation of the school library for a project have been cancelled on him by Dr. Richard Blackstone, Dean of Instruction...for an administrative meeting about facility utilization. Mali's reading of the poem emphasizes the teacher's fury at this farce of a situation at several points in the second and third letters, addressed to Dr. Blackstone's secretary and Dr. Blackstone himself.
  I do not care if the library is the only place in the school big enough to hold your meeting — it's also the only place in the school WITH BOOKS!
• Journey to Chaos: One moment Retis soft-spoken and polite, and then the next "OPEN THE DOOR YOU OLD MUMMY!"
• In the Revenge of the Sith novelization, Palpatine is normally quite calm. It's a part of his manipulation of Anakin Skywalker that he seems to be breaking down over what he claims is a conspiracy against him.
  "Here—" The Chancellor rummaged around within his desk for a moment, then brought forth a document reader. "Do you know what this is?"
  Anakin recognized the seal Padmé had placed on it. "Yes, sir—that's the Petition of the Two Thousand—"
  "No, Anakin! No!" Palpatine slammed the document reader on his desktop hard enough to make Anakin jump. "It is a roll of traitors."
• In Mostly Harmless, when Arthur asks a seeress living in a cave for advice, she gives him a sheaf of papers containing her life story, with the most significant decisions highlighted, and advises him that if he just does the opposite, then he won't end up IN A SMELLY OLD CAVE LIKE THIS!

  • In "The Harvest of Kairos", Jarvik has seized the Liberator and left the crew stranded on a Death World where their only means of escape is an obsolete landing module without weaponry.
    Avon: Once your friend Jarvik teleports that's the last we'll see of the Liberator. A couple of plasma bolts will be the last we'll see of anything.
    Tarrant: But there's nothing I can do with this...
    Avon: YOU CAN GET IT OFF THE GROUND!

    "Harm, I've been wondering, just for my own curiosity, what's it take to get you to SHUT THE HELL UP?"
  • Willow's werewolf boyfriend Oz has only a singular display of anger throughout the three eventful seasons we see him. It wasn't when everyone else was freaking out at Buffy for skipping town at the end of Season 2, or even after witnessing Willow and Xander making out in the warehouse basement Spike locked them in. In the Season 4 episode "Wild at Heart", Willow is in tears over seeing Oz with another woman, fellow werewolf Veruca, in his cage after one of the nights where he transforms. Totally naked. While Oz explains that he needed to find a way to cage her up, given that she doesn't care about who she kills while in beast form, it doesn't really help his case much, especially given that Veruca did, in a way, succeed in tempting the beast in him. When Oz tells her to leave so he can explain the situation, Veruca feels the need to keep talking, prompting one incredibly loud "NOW" from Oz the likes of which have never been seen (or heard, rather). Even given her dangerously high snark levels, she apparently leaves so quickly that they didn't even need another shot of her to show it.
  • Played seriously in "The Gift". Giles is trying to get Buffy to acknowledge that killing her little sister Dawn may be necessary to save not only the world, but all of reality.

  • Trying to reassure a morose minister. "We're both in the business of helping people. DON'T MAKE ME HIT YOU!"
  • Lilith has been known to do it herself. Since Lilith's usually The Stoic, it's like a volcano going off.

    Frasier: NO, Lilith! Not the royal Dalton!
  • In a non-Frasier example, during their vicious argument at the end of season 2, Diane insists the faces Sam is making aren't bothering her. However, he keeps making them as she keeps speaking, and soon Diane shrieks at the top of her lungs for him to stop.
• Happens quite a lot in Chernobyl, particularly as the supervisors and power plant managers feign ignorance to the true calamity of the situation.

  Dyatlov: You didn't see graphite.
  Sitnikov: I did.
  Dyatlov: You didn't. You DIDN'T!!! Because it's NOT THERE!
• Cracker. A different take on this trope appears in "Men Should Weep". Fitz is complaining about his son's layabout ways.
  "You know Mark, you appear to be a symbol of the Lost Generation. Yes, that could well be the case. The crisis of Western capitalism has deprived you of work, motivation and the will to succeed but personally Mark, personally (cuts to someone listening outside the house to the faint voice of Fitz shouting inside) I think you're a bone-idle git!

  • Six pretty much embodies this trope.
  • "The Parting of the Ways": Nine, after being told to shut up by the Daleks.

I want children laughing outside your door because they've found the house of Colonel Runaway, and when people come to you, and ask if trying to get to ME through THE PEOPLE I LOVE... is in any way a good idea... I want you to tell them your name.
  • ''Flesh And Stone'' when the Doctor realises the only way to sate the crack in time is to sacrifice himself:
    The Doctor : We feed it.

    River Song : Like what, for instance?
    The Doctor: LIKE! ME! FOR INSTANCE!

    "Did you really think I wouldn't make that sonic-proof, Doctor?! Come on!"
• Drake & Josh: In many episodes this is Josh's default way of speaking. Other characters also get in on it. The episode "We're Married" features two major examples:
  • Crazy Steve after Josh tells him that he, Drake, and Yuka have changed their minds about seeing the foreign movie Ick Glockma:
    "Well, it's gonna be a little problem, see, 'cause when you asked me to find that movie for you, I... I spent five hours on the phone tracking it down and talking Helen into letting me screen it for you, so... now that I’ve done all that... SOMEBODY’S GONNA BE WATCHING ICK GLOCKMA TONIGHT!!! OR ELSE SOMEBODY’S GONNA BE AN ORGAN DONOR BEFORE THEIR SEVENTEENTH BIRTHDAY, JOSH... NICHOOOLS!!!"

• Fellow Travelers: Hawkins Fuller is normally self-controlled, so he rarely has an outburst, but when he sees his son Jackson eating dinner with his bare hand instead of utensils, Hawk snaps at this display of bad manners and yells "ENOUGH!" while slamming the table, which startles his family.
• Firefly Mal has a particularly good unexpected one during a stand off with his "wife" in the episode "Trash".

  • Another brilliant example, semi-Subverted in that he’d got some shouting in beforehand:

  Frasier: JUST GETTING UP??!! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! A GUN JUST WENT OFF IN HERE!!
  Marty: Niles bought a starter’s pistol.
  Niles: And there’s no need to get snippy. Accidents happen.
  Frasier: Oh I’m sorry, was I snippy? I didn’t realise it was too much to ask that there not be GUNPLAY IN MY LIVING ROOM!!!
• Freaky, in "Braces":
  Nathan: How about I give you five bucks, and you let me get to class?
  Bully: How about I... TELL EVERYONE THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO BRIBE ME!
• The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: Phil did this several times with both Carlton and Will, usually after one of their schemes went badly awry. One classic example is the Season 2 episode "Striptease For Two" (where Will and Carlton sell Vivian's heirloom bracelet to buy stock ... for a company that, later that day, goes bankrupt). Made to confess, Phil at first collapses into uncontrollable laughter, and so do Will and Carlton ... only Phil has gotten them to lower their guard, fulfilling the trope's Surprise/Fear category when, without warning, he screams at the top of his lungs, "DO I LOOK LIKE A WHITE GUY NAMED WARD???!!!???" When Will and Carlton try to apologize, an outraged Phil snaps back, "Now you get that bracelet back, and for the next six weeks, I don't want to hear you breathe ... OR I'M CALLING THE FEDS MYSELF!!!"

He says you then lost your nerve and ran from a small French patrol. He says you lost ten men, a major and two sergeants.

  Wellesley: [roaring] MAJOR LENNOX ANSWERED WITH HIS LIFE! As you should have done if you had any sense of honor! You shamed us sir! You disgraced us sir! You will answer. By God you will answer! The South Essex is stood down in name. If I wipe the name I may wipe the shame. I am making you a battalion of detachments, you will fetch and carry. The Light Company put up a fight, so I will let it stand under a new captain.
  Simmerson: To be commanded by the newly gazetted Captain Gibbons, sir?
  Wellesley: To be commanded by the newly gazetted Captain Sharpe, sir.
  Simmerson: I have a cousin at Horse Guards... and friends at court.
  Wellesley: [deathly quiet] A man who loses the King's Colours loses the King's friendship.
• In Sherlock, Moriarty does this more than once in "The Great Game".

After having made their way through Mr. Scott's entire supply of booze, the engineer has no choice but to break out a special bottle of scotch he had been saving for a special occasion. He speaks of it fondly, before briefly becoming inexplicably angry:
      Scotty: All I have is a bottle of very, very, very old scotch. WHISKY!
  • Star Trek: The Next Generation: In "Sarek", Vulcan ambassador Sarek is struggling with Bendii syndrome, which makes it harder for him to suppress his emotions at his advanced age, and this starts to affect the Enterprise crew, who get more easily enraged with one another, often having shouting matches with one another.
    • Picard and Riker arguing on the bridge:
      Riker: I don't understand this. Everyone is protecting Sarek. His wife, Mendrosan, even you!
      Picard: What would you have me do? March right down there and destroy the man?
      Riker: The mission with the Legarans cannot be carried out with Sarek in this condition!
      Picard: I know that!
      Riker: THEN TELL HIM THAT THERE IS NO WAY!
      Picard: DON'T YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO!
      Data: Captain... Commander...
    • Sarek, when Picard forces him to face his loss of emotional control:
      Picard: Sarek of Vulcan would never be afraid of looking straight at something he did not want to see.
      Sarek: I warn you, your efforts to discredit me will not succeed!
      Picard: Sarek of Vulcan never confused what he wanted with the truth.
      Sarek: I WILL NOT BE SPOKEN TO IN THIS MANNER!
      Picard: Do I hear anger in your voice?
      Sarek: It would be illogical for a Vulcan to show ANGER! It would be ILLOGICAL! ILLOGICAL! ILLOGICAL! ILLOGICAL!
  • Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In Dramatis Personae, the main cast are possessed by some mysterious entities that cause the DS9 crew to act out of character and turn against each other, one faction in Sisko's favor and another on Kira's side.

    Sisko: What can we do?

    O'Brien: Leave the station.

    Sisko: NEVER! GET ME A PHASER, I'LL GET RID OF KIRA!

  • Star Trek: Voyager:
    • In "Tuvix", a teleporter accident turns Tuvok and Neelix into the joined being known as Tuvix. When Voyager's crew figure out how to reverse the effect, Tuvix pleads with them to live as the person he is.
      Tuvix: Commander [Chakotay], are you going to stand by and do nothing while [Captain Janeway] commits murder? Mister Ayala? Yes, Lieutenant Paris, you... ([no one responds) DOESN'T ANYONE SEE THAT THIS IS WRONG?
    • In "Latent Image", the Doctor suffers a literal Heroic BSoD due to previously-deleted memories of a medical incident.

  • From the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Shuttlepod One":
    Malcolm: You know, I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure you use up a lot more oxygen WHEN YOU SHOUT LIKE THAT!
• Supernatural:
  • Crowley does this a lot.
    "Am I the only game piece on the board who doesn't underestimate those denim-wrapped nightmares?!"
  • So did Pestilence. "If Satan wants them so bad he can GLUE THEM BACK TOGETHER!"
  • Even angels get into the act.
    Zachariah: "I'd walk these halls and people would AVERT THEIR EYES — I HAD RESPECT!"
• The Thick of It features quite a few examples from both Malcolm and Jamie; arguably one of the most spectacular is the dressing-down of Hugh Abbot outside the goldfish bowl. Because there's a journalist in said conference room, Malcolm is trying to speak as quietly as possible so nothing ends up on the record, but he can't quite stop his anger at Hugh from boiling over; as such, half the conversation is conducted in deathly-quiet murmuring rendered almost inaudible by the conference room windows, and the other half, well...
  They're running about your fucking flat, I fucking told you about that. Why the fuck did you not tell me about it YOU STUPID CUNT! How am I supposed to do my job if I don't know WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?! YOU'RE A FUCKING PRICK! AN ABSOLUTE CUNT, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
• This was a criticism of Patrick Wayne's hosting on the 1990 version of Tic-Tac-Dough, as he would explain the game and read the questions in a dry monotone, but suddenly scream "YOU BLOOOOCK!" if a contestant placed an X or O to block their opponent, or "YOU WIIIIIIIIN!!!!" if they won.
• Stefán Karl Stefánsson's character in True Jackson, VP, an over the top villain like Robbie, has this line when True and her friends try to escape his castle.

  Gunslinger: *stomps around in anger, trying to reactivate his shield* GRRR!!!! YOU SHORTED MY SHIELD!!!! GRRRR!!! GRRRR!!!! GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
• On the episode "Take This Sabbath Day" in the first season of The West Wing, Donna does this to Josh to try and get him out of his hangover-induced mood to get ready for a meeting.
  Donna: Are you going to listen to me from now on?
  Josh: I'm not even listening to you now.
  Donna: I SAID, ARE YOU GOING TO LISTEN TO-
  Josh: Yes! Yes! Yes!
  • Also happens in the second season episode "In This White House", when Leo tells C.J. and Sam that President Bartlet wants to hire Ainsley Hayes:
    C.J.: Are you kidding?
    Leo: No.
    C.J.: Are you kidding?
    Leo: No.
    C.J.: Are you kidding?!?
    Leo: No!
    C.J.: WELL, WHAT THE HELL MAKES YOU THINK I WOULDN'T SCREAM WHERE THERE WERE PEOPLE?!?
• When seeing a "Charger" off to the board in Whew!, Tom Kennedy will remind them to give the level...and...the dollar amount—CHARGE!
• The White Queen: At Queen Anne's funeral, Elizabeth of York is downright startled by King Richard III's unexpected outburst (he barely speaks above a whisper throughout the scene), and she instinctively takes a step back when she hears his thunderous voice, which is loud enough to fill Westminster Abbey.
  Richard: (barely restrained fury) I am not Richard. I am your King. Now go. (notices that she's not moving) GO!!!!!!
• Word of Honor: Zhao Jing learns the Scorpion King didn't follow all his orders. When he confronts the Scorpion King about it he abruptly changes from speaking calmly to yelling.
  Zhao Jing: Xie'er, I remember telling you to destroy all the Drug Men. Did you take my words FOR NOTHING?
• In an episode of Workaholics, Ders dips into this trope while he's high on "Mexican steroids" (which are actually PCP).
  Ders: Adam had a heart attack. And the doctor said it's your fault, and not all the Mexican steroids. So if it's cool with you, I'M GONNA WARM UP NOW, MAN!

Musical COMPOSITIONS!

• This sometimes happens in any song that involves metal screaming. Sometimes just to scare the listener.
• Björk does this with her version of "It's Oh So Quiet"; she starts singing in a whispery voice, even making "Shh" sounds, and then belts out "You fall in love!"
• Butthole Surfers' "The Annoying Song" has some screaming along with its low-key vocals, but not as sudden as near the end:
  Go ahead and leave ya, when she had to see me
  Said ya gone ahead and leave ya baby
  Right on your gun, BUT HEY!
• Drowning Pool do this in the very beginning of their supposedly most known hit "Bodies". The song starts with the phrase "Let the bodies hit the floor" repeated 3 times in a whispery voice. Then, the singer pronounces "Let the bodies hit the..." in the same tone before erupting with a loud "FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRR!" as the instruments kick in.
• Amanda Palmer not infrequently, most notably "Colorblind", where she's practically whispering in the first and final thirds and screaming her lungs out in the middle.
• CG5 generally has a calm tone while singing, but sometimes briefly shouts:
  • "I Wanna Waa"
  "I'm not in the mood, so PLEASE SHUT UP!"
  • "Every Door"
  "It echoes through the halls, I think it's getting FASTER!"
  • "Area 51"
  "EVERYBODY SCATTER!"
• A hallmark of Hobo Johnson's style, which often goes from soft, conversationally-delivered lines to screamed phrases. The chorus to "Peach Scone" goes:
  "I love the thought of being with you"
  "Or maybe it's the thought OF NOT BEING SO ALONE"
• How Spike Jones' "Cocktails For Two" transitions from the slow opening to hyper.
  On some secluded rendezvous...
  (WHOOPEEEE! [whistle] [BANG])
• Tracy Bonham does this in "Mother, Mother". The verses have her reassuring her mother that she's doing okay, but the chorus has her admitting she's not:
  I'm hungry. I'm dirty.
  I'm losing my mind.
  EVERYTHING'S FINE!
• Eminem:
  • "Role Model" has him interspersing lyrics delivered in his 1999-era squeaky Subverted Kids' Show Slim Shady voice with howling, distorted screams of "don't you wanna grow up to be just like me?".
  • "Kim" (which according to Eminem was influenced by "Role Model") starts with Marshall gushing over his baby daughter, before screeching at his wife that if she moves he'll beat the shit out of her.
  • The hook in "Criminal" (from The Marshall Mathers LP) is based around Em rapping "(I'm a) CRIMINAL!" in a particular shriek on the last word. Referenced in the The Marshall Mathers LP 2 song "Rhyme or Reason", which ends with him screaming a few rhymes for "criminal" with the same cadence - "I still am a criminal ten-year-old degenerate grabbing on my genitals ...the last Mathers LP done went diamond, this time I'm predicting that this one'll go emerald!"
  • Throughout The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Eminem develops a habit of screaming his punchlines, sometimes with vocal distortion added. It seems to be a punky interpretation of the common 80s hip-hop delivery where a line's last syllable (the rhyming one) will be stressed. In "Berzerk", this is done in a particular high-pitched cadence and Brooklyn accent reminiscent of Beastie Boys.
• Chester Bennington did this on Linkin Park's "A Place For My Head". During the bridge, Chester whispers "you, try to take the best of me, go away" 3 times, then whispers the first 3 parts of the line again, before shouting "GO AWAY!" then launching into an angry scream of the lyrics another 4 times, with the last "go away" before the chorus becoming a bar-and-a-half Metal Scream.
• William Shatner screams "MR. TAMBOURINE MAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!" at the very end of his spoken-word cover of that song.
• "Low Budget Horror" by RedHook:
  Poor mental health is an excuse I can't acquit
  For BEING SUCH A PIECE OF SHIT!
  People like, people like you repulse me
  Treating pain, treating pain like it's currency
  You inflict damage 'cause you're damaged to the core
  I WON'T ACCEPT IT ANY MORE!
• The vocals of "The Thunder Answered Back" by Gabby's World are quite calm, even peaceful...up until the middle of the song.
  But I could never be so mad
  To shake you by the shoulders screaming
  YOU COWARD! YOU HUMMINGBIRD!
  YOU COWARD! YOU HUMMINGBIRD!
• This happens quite often during the argument in "We Cry Together" by Kendrick Lamar and Taylour Paige.
  Taylour: Give me my fuckin' keys
  Kendrick: Nah, I like you parked in that bitch
  Taylour: Give me my keys, bro
  Kendrick: On God, you ain't gettin' these keys
  Taylour: GIVE ME MY FUCKING KEYS!

Professional WRESTLING!

• Truth Martini and Jay Lethal's promo on ACH for the 2014 All-Star Extravaganza. Lethal started by telling Martini to keep calm and that they were not going to yell but neither of them could keep their cool.
• This infamous Nia Jax promo, with the build-up starting at the 2:42 mark.
  Nia: This hand that took Becky Lynch away from her adoring fans. This hand that's going to be holding MYYYYYYYYY!!!!! TITLE!!!! over my head when I erase the MYTH of Ronda Rousey at TLC!
• On the first Smackdown of 2023 following a loss to Kevin Owens and John Cena in a tag team match, Roman Reigns addresses the loss claiming he didn't lose but rather Sami Zayn did since Sami Zayn was the one who got pinned in that match and not Roman Reigns. Suddenly Roman begins questioning Sami's place in the Bloodline which causes Roman to lose his cool and start shouting at Sami. Kevin Owens interrupted before he could do anything else
  Reigns: Do you wanna be me? Do you wanna be the tribal chief? Do you think you're me? Do you think you're me? DO YOU THINK YOU'RE ME?! DO YOU WANNA BE ME?! DO YOU WANNA BE THE TRIBAL CHIEF?! HUH?! DO YOU WANNA RUN THE BLOODLINE?! DO YOU THINK YOU'RE TO TAKE ON THE PRODIG- *Kevin Owen's music interrupts Roman*

Puppet SHOWS!

• On Bear in the Big Blue House, Tutter the blue mouse tends to do this sometimes. For example, in "A Winter's Nap"...
  Tutter: Oh, and Bear, would you mind awfully, if it's not too much trouble, if you wouldn't mind, Bear...
  Bear: Hmm?
  Tutter: Would you please close the door? You know why?
  Bear: Why?
  Tutter: It's... freezing!
  Bear: Sorry.
  Tutter: Sorry, sorry, sorry! Huh! A bear for a rommate. Uncle Splutter tried to warn me, but no... (Bear shuts the door.) Thank you, Bear.
• Red Guy from Don't Hug Me I'm Scared has gained this tendency compared to the original webshow. While still usually emotionless and monotone, he isn't above raising his voice or straight up yelling when he's under stress.
  Red Guy: (Talking to someone on the phone) I told you, I can't help you. I don't work here. Okay. Fine. BYE!!!
• Boober on the Fraggle Rock episode "I Don't Care" after Red spills paint on his Security Blanket.
  Mokey: Oh... oh, Boober, please don't be angry.
  Boober: Oh, I'm not angry.
  Mokey: Good.
  Boober: I am FURIOUS!

PodCASTS!

• Suddenly Shouting:
  • Throughout the Quints episode, Luke and Andy get gradually more irritated by Jamie/Marnie's self-centered whingeing, but they manage to stay relatively composed. However, after Jamie/Marnie tries to steal her parents' attention away from their newborn child, who is in the midst of a fairly serious medical emergency, in order to focus the conversation on herself again, Luke's composure finally breaks:
    Luke: NOT F**KING NOW, MARNIE! Their infant son is in hospital!
  • Another instance from A Ring of Endless Light: because Andy and Luke are confused as to why the young protagonists call their guardian Grandfather, which the hosts consider to be a rather archaic form of address, they theorise that said Grandfather strictly corrected the children in their youth, leading to this imagined exchange:
  Luke: 'Oh, we're going to stay with our Granddad.'
  Andy: 'Grandfather.'
  Andy: 'Oh, Grandpa, can we-'.
  Luke/Andy: 'Grandfather.'
  Luke: 'Grandpa, can we have a yogurt from the fridge-'.
  Andy: ' GRANDFATHER! '
  • Luke breaks into a full-on rant when a character from the "US Intergalactic Patrol" shows up in Zenon: The Zequel, despite humans in this film canonically having neither gone further than the Moon and Zenon's space station, nor met any alien life.
    Luke: JUST HAVE HIM BE FROM THE ARMY! WHO ARE IN THE FILM!

RaDIO!

• Dead Ringers:
  • During an interview, Professor Chris Witty starts inexplicably yelling things like "PANIC" and "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!" mid-sentence. He admits it's because he dreads going back to obscurity, and his old office of a former broom cupboard in Downing Street.
  • Jeremy Vine has a habit (exaggerated in the sketch like most things are) of starting off a sentence nice and quiet, and then sharply raising his voice as he finishes the sentence, making for some pretty humorous conversations with people he interviews.
  • Andrew Neil ("custard that's become sentient and tried to assume human form") inevitably begins any segment he's in introducing a set of increasingly bizarre things. The final one is inevitably DIANE ABBOTT!!!

Real LIFE!

• It's not uncommon for people with certain disabilities, such as autism, to have trouble controlling or paying attention to the volume and pitch of their own speech. This can result in volume fluctuating for no apparent reason, sometimes within the same sentence.

RolePLAY!

• Inverted in Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues. When Mirielle asks what's happening in the school, Simon goes on a long, loud tirade essentially telling Mirielle to go find out herself because he's too damn freaked out to figure out what's going on. He then calmly takes a piece of bread from her, eats it, and politely tells her that it tastes nice.
• Sheriff Kyle Pred on NoPixel is known for going from calm to EXTREMELY LOUD AND SHOUTING with little to no reason.

TheaTRE!

• John Hancock in 1776 has several episodes of this as President of the Continental Congress when he has to deal with some pretty stupid stuff by its members to keep things going.
  • John Dickinson of Pennsylvania moves to postpone the vote on independence indefinitely, effectively killing it. Judge Wilson, also from Pennsylvania and effectively Dickinson's Yes-Man toady, seconds the motion.
    Hancock: Judge Wilson, in your eagerness to be loved, you seem to have forgotten that Pennsylvania CANNOT SECOND ITS OWN MOTION!
  • After New York has abstained (courteously) from one too many votes, this one on whether to delay a vote on independence temporarily until a Declaration is written. It leaves the Congress deadlocked at 6 colonies for, 6 against.
    Hancock: Mr. Morris...WHAT IN HELL GOES ON IN NEW YORK?!
  • Even at the end when the Declaration is to be signed. Hancock goes first while the other delegates are remarking about what they've just done, including possibly committing treason against the British crown for which they could be hanged. Notably, everyone is caught up in the moment and no one is actually doing any signing.
    Hancock: Gentlemen, forgive me if I don't join in the merriment, but if we are arrested now, my name is STILL THE ONLY ONE ON THE DAMN THING!

  Nick: This is what I'm dealing with! The man is not properly socialized. Frankie doesn't have to deal with it, Gaudio doesn't, I've had to deal with it TEN YEARS!!!
• In the musical adaptation of Legally Blonde, Paulette has a tendency to do this.
  Paulette: (after putting on an Enya CD for Elle) Isn't that relaxing? It's called "CELTIC MOODS"!
  (later)
  Emmet: Anyone who bakes their dog a birthday cake deserves nothing less.
  Paulette: And it's shaped LIKE A BONE!

Stand-Up COMEDY!

• Bill Engvall does this in one skit when he and his son go to a drugstore to find maxi-pads for his daughter. He can't find the pads, but his son does and yells "HERE'S THE LITTLE GIRL NARROW PADS, DADDYYYYY!!!" To which Bill responds, "...Appreciate that, boy. Listen, I don't think they heard you in SCOTLAND!!!"
• Sam Kinison's whole act centered around this trope. He'd go from soft tones to full tilt screaming in the blink of an eye.
  • Same with Lewis Black.
• How can we possibly forget Gilbert Gottfried?

Video GAMES!

• ANNO: Mutationem: C, in the midst of his Villainous Breakdown, is confronted by G, who tells him to give it up already.

  C: TO HELL WITH THE GATEKEEPER PROJECT!

  Hamilton: I'm going to take the Belkan nuke and terrify both sides into ending this foolish war... DON'T GET IN MY WAY!!!
• Baldi's Basics in Education and Learning has a terrifying, rather loud example.
  Baldi: Congratulations! You found all seven notebooks! Now all you need to do is... GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN!!! Haha!

  Orthopox: Shall I tell you a secret? Few of our people know this, but the DNA patterns in our clone banks are becoming more and more degraded with each new clone.
  Cryptosporidium: That's bad, right?
  Orthopox: Only if we want to retain our immortality through cloning. OF COURSE IT'S BAD!
  • Happens again in Destroy All Humans! 2 when Crypto falls for a bit of Pox's sarcasm regarding a giant mutated lizard-monster.
  Orthopox: Actually, I want you to find the source of its cognitive dissonance so we can give it counselling and over time teach it confidnece and self-esteem.
  Crypto: ... you're kidding, right?
  Orthopox: OF COURSE I AM, YOU MUTATION! Now go kill that thing!

  • And
    Kat: Vergil please...
    Vergil: Stay out of this!
• The Elder Scrolls
  • Going along with his extreme Mood-Swinging, this is a prominent trait of Sheogorath, the Daedric Prince of Madness.
    Sheogorath: "Since you're standing here, I assume you've succeeded. Or you're terribly confused. OR REALLY LACKING IN GOOD JUDGMENT!"
  • In Skyrim's Dragonborn DLC, Hermaeus Mora, the Daedric Prince of Knowledge who serves as the Greater-Scope Villain, is mostly rather affable. However, when he confronts Miraak after Miraak's betrayal, Mora raises his voice in anger for one of the only times. What follows is a gruesome example of Impaled with Extreme Prejudice, showing that Mora is not an Eldritch Abomination to be flipped off.
• The first Fallout has this gem if the player character stumbles upon the Thieves' Circle, makes it through a small gauntlet of traps and locked doors and engages in conversation with their leader Loxley.
  Loxley: Bloody fine job making it through the defenses, mate! I'm rather impressed. Toss me your name!
  Vault Dweller: I'm [insert name here].
  Loxley: Quite pleased to make your acquaintance, actually... for now. Let's get the other bit of politeness taken care of, shall we? WHAT THE BLOODY, BLOODY, BLOODY HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!
• Fallout: New Vegas gives us Muggy the neurotic mini-Securitron in the Old World Blues DLC, who's prone to this due to having been programmed to obsess over washing mugs... for scientists who have long abandoned any activities that require mugs.
  But you know, it's the neglect that hurts the most. 'Hey everybody, let's turn ourselves into robot brains in jars!' Do you know how many coffee cups giant robot brains in jars use on a daily basis? NOT FUCKING MANY!!!
• Far Cry 3: Hoyt Volker, the Amoral Afrikaner who's trying to sell protagonist Jason Brody's loved ones as slaves, is playing poker with Jason and his friend Sam Becker, both of whom are pretending to be new mercenary recruits.

  Hoyt: Foster, Jason Brody, whatever your name is, it's slipped my mind. HOW STUPID DO YOU THINK I AM?!
• Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned gives us a textbook example, as part of Billy Grey's Establishing Character Moment. In short, Billy has just come back from a lengthy, court-mandated stint in rehab, only to find out that Johnny sold his bike while he was gone.
  Billy: Y'know, coming off heroin's kinda hard. I think I acquired this touch of amnesia. What business is more important, Mr. 1980s yuppie big shot, than your best friend's bike when he's close to getting a fifteen-year stretch?
  Johnny: The business that pays his lawyer's fees! The business that puts food on all of our tables! The business that we are all in, while you're out pretending to be saved!
  Billy: *Slams whisky glass onto the bar* GET! MY! BIKE!
  Johnny: What am I, your fuckin' dog?!
• Halo 4 gives us this happening increasingly frequently as Cortana's Rampancy progresses. Also, we have Captain Andrew Del-Rio after the Chief refuses to give Cortana up for deletion in response to her condition:
  Del Rio: I... am ordering you... to SURRENDER THAT AI!!
  Master Chief: ...No, sir.
• Early on in Highway Blossoms, this happens during Amber and Marina's first meeting with the Trio, when they realize that Tess has a New Mexico license plate(Marina's home state) and that Mariah and Joe recently dismantled a car they found. Amber puts two and two together.
  Amber: So... YOU STOLE HER CAR AND DISMANTLED IT!
• In the Jak and Daxter games, Torn often exhibits this trait, going from delivering information (relatively) calmly, then switching to an angry outburst as the tension gets to him, before quickly returning to normal.
  Torn: We're seeing movement from both the KG and Metal Head forces. We've GOT to repel this assault or we're through!
• Joel's daughter, Sarah, dies about twenty minutes into The Last of Us and doesn't get brought up again until about 2/3 of the way through the story when you get to the town where his brother Tommy lives.

  Ellie: Maria told me about Sarah. And I-
  Joel: -ELLIE! You are treading on some mighty thin ice here.
• When the survivors in Left 4 Dead come across a church with another survivor who had holed himself up and refuses to let them in, Francis (if he is the one who tries to talk to him first) may suddenly start yelling at the church guy to let them in.

  Shepard: Anoleis paid me for it. Tough luck.
  Parisini: You're kidding. Do you have any I...WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!
  Shepard: Language, miss.
• The Medium: The eldritch monstrous entity known as "The Maw" hams a few of it's lines, but this bit near the end when it's pursuing Marianne seems to loudly establish it's a Tortured Monster:
  "No more hunger. No more cold. No more shame. Never again. Let them look. Let them know. Let them see. Let them feel... OUR PAIN!" ^note drag that last one out, in the cutscene it sounds more like OUR PAAAAAAAIIIIIIINNNN!
• Oddworld: In Soulstorm, Toby, a character that's usually just controlling the train in background and vary rarely chimes in with his opinion has suddenly devolved into a shouting wreck during the train ride to Soulstorm Brewery.

• Misfile: Due to Ash suffering from a Gender Bender, he and Emily spend a large chunk of the webcomic determined that any romance between them is futile due to Incompatible Orientation on her part and the awkwardness of being in the wrong body on his part.

  Emily: Missi, for the last time, I am not a romantic rival for Ash's... ASH IS WHAT?!

  • From "Down 'N Dirty":
    Mayor: Buttercup! Thank goodness we found you. As Mayor of Townsville, I feel it is my sworn duty to tell you that… YOU STINK! YOU SMELL! YOU REEK! You’re stinking up the whole town! So either take a bath or take a hike!
  • In "Los Dos Mojos," when Bubbles thinks she's Mojo Jojo, she steals his outfit and kicks him out of his lair while was taking a shower. Blossom and Buttercup grill Mojo on what they think he did to Bubbles. Mojo rightly denies responsibility, starting out quietly livid before exploding mid-sentence.
  Mojo: You've got to be kidding. I'm naked. I'm wet. Your sister is wearing my clothes. And this is all part of some evil plan to (full volume) RULE THE WORLD AS A SOGGY CHIMP IN MY BIRTHDAY SUIT???!!
  • In "Three Girls and a Monster", after listening to Blossom and Buttercup argue over whose fighting style best works against a monster stronger than most they've fought, Bubbles finally decides to take matters in her own hands by kindly asking him to leave. Which he does. It finally culminates in this:
  Bubbles: (sweetly) There. (full volume) THAT'S HOW YOU GET RID OF A MONSTER, YOU BIG FAT DOO DOO HEADED NINNIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• One of Ren Hoek's traits from The Ren & Stimpy Show:

    Ren: I'll watch some TV... it'll help me to RELAX! (grins maniacally, creepy BGM plays)
  • In "Big House Blues" (the original pilot episode), after another inmate at the pound is taken away for "the big sleep":
    Stimpy:^note In the pilot, he doesn't have many lines, and his stupidity is not as pronounced compared to the later series "What's the "big sleep" Ren?
    Ren: (pulls Stimpy in closer) He's... DEAD! DEAD, YOU EEDIOT! YOU KNOW WHAT DEAD IS?! JUST LIKE WE'LL BE IF WE DON'T GET OUT OF HERE!
• Max from Sam & Max: Freelance Police being a hyper-kinetic rabbity thing, apparently has as little control over his personal volume as his hyperactive behavior.
  Max : (after Sam explains his suspicions of a gorilla and a zebra driving a rover on the moon; namely that a real Zebra has hooves instead of hands and therefore cannot drive a moon rover) You're right! THE GORILLA SHOULD BE DRIVING!
• Samurai Jack:
  • Aku has just ordered a monster from "Rent-A-Minion", who is a bit unclear on his mission. Aku offers a curt response.
    Aku: ...Right. Well, let me refresh your memory: DEESTROY *SAMURAI JACK*!!
  • 50 years after Aku destroyed all the time portals that would help Jack get back home, he had hoped to just wait it out, thinking Jack would just DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!! But he didn't even age. He just grew that stupid beard.
  • Aku's Large Ham nature has him do this quite frequently, even when his voice is already naturally loud. Such as when reading some children fairy tales:
    "Once upon a time, there was a little girl with an adorable red cape and GREAT FLAMING EYEBROWS!!!"
• From the South Park "Mysterion Trilogy"
  Cartman: You can't kick me out of Coon & Friends. I'm the FUCKING COON!!!

    SpongeBob: "We did it, Patrick! Sandy's gonna be so proud of us. We got that horrible monster out of her house, and best of all, her pets are safe, 'cause that horrible creature is now HEADING STRAIGHT FOR THE KRUSTY KRAB!"
  • Too many examples to count from "My leg!", as in that episode, almost every instance of "MY LEG!" "HIS LEG!" "YOUR LEG!" and "FRED'S LEG!" is shouted regardless of the volume of the rest of the sentence.
  • In "Can You a Spare a Dime?", SpongeBob does this a couple of times to Squidward.
    SpongeBob: "You know, when you swatted that newspaper out of my hands, it reminded me of something a friend of mine did... at his JOB!"

• Steven Universe:
  • One moment Amethyst will be talking normally and the next she'll be shouting.
    Amethyst: Hey there, Steven! Why you standing there all sad like that?!
  • Done to terrifying effect in "Change Your Mind" when Steven is separated from his gem by White Diamond, expecting it to return Pink Diamond to her original self. Instead it results in an eerily emotionless Steven doppelgänger, and when White Diamond demands to know where Pink Diamond is, he just says "She's gone". When she doesn't believe him, he repeats himself, but suddenly screams loud enough to split White Diamond's throne room in half and leave a crater.
    White Diamond: What is this? Where is Pink?
    Pink Steven: She's gone.
    White Diamond: What did you say!? Answer me!
    Pink Steven: She's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012): Donatello often dips into this whenever he's stressed, such as in "Showdown, Part 1," when Leonardo attempts to blow up the Kraang's portal with a Disintegrator Ray, only to find out that it is protected by a force field.
  Leo: There's a force field?! Why didn't you tell me?!

  Spike: Do me, uh... a little favor, would ya, pal? GET OUT OF MY SALAD!
• Total Drama:
  • An hour into the challenge in "Evil Dread", the teams are still tied with no progress made since their initial finds. Chris narrates the situation with a soft whisper as if not to ruin anyone's concentration, then switches to frustrated shouting to wonder aloud why it's taking so long.
  • In "A Blast From the Past", Sugar answers Ella's pushy poem with one of her own. The two opening lines are a playful take on "Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue..." and she switches out the two closing lines with an aggressive "GET OUT MY FACE!".
• T.U.F.F. Puppy: In "Doom-Mates", after Dudley is told about the Chameleon's ability to shapeshift into anyone, he caps off any sentence he states to everyone he suspects of being him in disguise with "Or should I say...THE CHAMELEON!?".
• Work It Out Wombats!: In "Zadie's Shell Shuffle," Zadie wants to JunJun to sing a song about her, but in doing so, he gives away her hiding places, and she gets mad at him for this. JunJun's response:

• In Young Justice (2010), when the original Roy Harper discovers he's been a Human Popsicle for eight years and a clone replaced him and has been living his life, he goes from calmly reassuring the clone that he's not to blame for the whole mess to screaming at Green Arrow for abandoning him at the drop of a hat.
  Clone Roy Harper: I don't wanna be the cause of more conflict between you two. I'd understand if you never wanted to lay eyes on me again.
  Original Roy Harper: I dunno... Seems to me the clone didn't do anything wrong. He didn't ask to be created... plus he found me. I can't blame him for this. [to Green Arrow] BUT I CAN TOTALLY BLAME YOU!!! We were partners. Friends! How could you not know I'd been replaced?! How could you leave me in Luthor's hands for eight years?! ...And how did I not see how useless you are? Get out... GET OUT!!!
