Basic Trope: Someone has a talent or skill that they lacked in the source material.

  • Straight: Bob from Troperland isn't shown cooking, buht in Troperland X, he knows how to cook up delicious meals.
  • Exaggerated: Whenever Bob cooks in Troperland, he essentially causes a fire in the building he's in and gives everyone food poisoning with his meals, in Troperland X, it's the exact opposite.
  • Downplayed: Bob in Troperland X knows how to make a meal or two compared to his Troperland counterpart.
  • Justified: Troperland X takes place 10 years later than Troperland, giving Bob plenty of time to take cooking lessons.
