A technique used in filmmaking where the director makes a character do something illogical or random for the situation in order to reveal vital information for the plot.
This phenomenon was found and named after a scene in the movie ‘Get Out’ when the main character, Chris, was being hypnotized in the chair but it was ineffective because he had cotton balls in his ears. Since the hypnosis was still a threat he should’ve left the cotton balls in but he removes them due to the director needing to reveal to the audience how he was able to beat it.

Why did Arnold throw away that weapon he could’ve used it moving forward?! Oh that’s just the director throwing a Cotton Ball at us to show he had it the whole time.

Get the Up balls mug.The other term for the Sun. The Scare Ball makes everything irritatingly hot, stirs up the cray with living creatures and critter humans, causes more turbulent air which shakes everyone’s snacks around on aeroplanes, does nothing good for migraines, and has freaked out past generations when it goes all eclipse-y.
The Scare Ball is hella bright today, and it’s making the local methheads even more animated. We should avoid interaction with the Scare Ball and stay inside with the blinds closed, like the higher powers intended when they created scientists who figured out window coverings.
