 +An occurrence within a story which is impossible according to the pre-established story.

 +===== Elaboration ===== 
 +Basically, this refers to an issue within a story where //payoff// exists without //setup//. I've heard it also described as ‘a sudden solution to a problem within the story’ (paraphrased), though I don't fully agree with that.\\ 
 +I think my definition is fairly straightforward. 
 +===== Examples ===== 
 +==== Sword Art Online ==== 
 +This will be the only example listed for a while, because I just can’t think of more of them right now.\\ 
 +In [[lb:sao]], Kirito being able to prevent Yui from being deleted – and then consequently turning her into a game item – is a plot hole, since there was zero prior indication that he had the skills to do this. Unless, somehow, you consider him being a //nerd// adequate setup.
