Orphaned punchline

When a scene (film/tv show etc) starts with someone telling the punchline of a joke, without the setup. Usually followed by loud, overly-dramatic laughter from those present.

(Name taken from Tv Tropes).

“So he says “do you love me?” and she says “no, but that's a real nice ski mask!” - Dumb and Dumber.

Orphan skirt

When you own a skirt that does not look good with any of your other clothes. Thus, you cannot complete the look.

I don't have any nice shirts, I guess this will have to stay an orphan skirt until I buy something that matches.
