This phrase can be related to Comics, TV Shows, Movies, books, or to any story where the perspective shifts completely for a few moments to (a) superfluous character(‘s) being interjected into the middle of the story, and have
literally no significance nor bring any intrinsic value to the
plot whatsoever. The said Character(’s) or events pertaining to them will
NEVER come up again.
