When a hookup that was only intended to occur once, or occurred in an unexpected fashion, happens again at a later date. - Count it and one.
Wow, Andrew hooked up with that Freshman last semester and again last weekend. Good continuation on his part.

A lame plot device consisting of a disclaimer often seen at the unexplained or hasty ending of a TV programme informing the viewer that either:
-a main character may have possibly died or left permanently (but usually hasn't, if they have the actor likely quit working on the show due to pay disputes)
-the script writers are fresh out of ideas until next week/month
-the director of the TV show believes viewers actually have attention spans longer than goldfish, absolutely no lives and care enough about the characters & plot that they are willing to sit on their ass for days and nights patiently awaiting the conclusion of last week's cliff-hanger
-the director believes making an audience wait anywhere from 24 hours to 1 week for a continuation will actually build anticipation and suspense among them and generate more interest in his show (instead of actually annoying the living shit out of them)
-the script writers got over-ambitious or just plain fucking lazy, and couldn't finish the episode within the deadline
-the episode has gone over it's allotted TV channel timeslot and hence will be replayed sometime later
-there wasn't enough time to finish the episode within 5 minutes
-technical/financial/on-set/casting difficulties made finishing the episode impossible
-a cliff-hanger/what-if/multi-part story arc has been planned for future episodes (usually occurs when one season of a show ends, the following episode will begin with a recap of the previous one)

Actor 1: "But wait... I have the answer to the meaning of life of itself!"
Actor 2: "Oh my god! OH MY GOD! Quick... TELL ME!"
TO BE CONTINUED...
Jane: "Billy wait, before we get married... I have something I should tell you."
Billy: "Duh?"
Jane: "I'm actually cheating on you with your brother, pregnant with your son's child, an alien from Jupiter, the person responsible for killing your parents AND... I'm not actually Jane at all."
*Jane rips off her face*
Jane: "I'm your mother."
*Camera zooms in on Billy's gaping expression of shock and then fades to black"
TO BE CONTINUED...
Agent Mulder: "Scully, for the first time I can promise you behind this door lies a real, extraterrestrial, alien being... here on earth. See for your own eyes..."
Agent Scully: "Mulder, this is the 789th time you've said that... but okay, open the door. I'm ready."
*Agent Mulder opens the door to reveal...*
TO BE CONTINUED...
"The End?" can also be used a substitute for "To be Continued..."

Stephen: "George, you have to fix this film you made, the continuity is all wrong."
George:"How?"
Stephen:"In the last shot the clock said 2 P.M., In the next shot the clock says 1:15 P.M."

The most visited word in UD. The word on the orange button that signifies "I have understood the instructions and wish to proceed." The word that all UD editors click on before adding a definition.

For the normal-minded people:
'Continue' is defined as- 1. persist in an activity or process
2. recommence or resume after interruption
For the supremely dirty-minded people:
(Try saying the word out loud)
If you heard 'cunt in you', that means you are a supremely dirty-minded person. Give yourself a pat on the back for being so dirty-minded.
