I'll Explain Later

Did you notice most films — action, adventure, and everything else with rescue scenes — have this:

Hey, what's going on? Or, what's happened?

I'll explain later.

Although, clearly, there was plenty of time to explain everything.

Professor Barry (P. B.)

Student	:	Processor, what's that you're writing?
P. B.	:	Screw you.
Student	:	Why?
P. B.	:	Because it's S, C, R, E, and so on.
Student	:	Won't that be great if it isn't like that for a change?
P. B.	:	No.

Uh

In my opinion, half the time — if not, all of the time — the writers didn't have a clue on what to write for that scene.

Why did the talking dolphin have a map to the Vatican?

Lethargic response:

I'll explain later. (Scene changes.)

Properly deranged response:

Uh... 🤔 I'll ... uh. Look! 👉 (Pointing wall.) Clue.

👀 🤔🤔🤔 The dolphin built walls for the Vatican and while they were building them, one enlightened brick taught them to talk. Then the dolphins took cement as hostage, so the Vatican made a map for them? I KNEW IT! Those dolphins. (Camera crews flailing.)

Dramatising Urgency

So we would be immersed in their world of nothingness of course.

Tom, why are you bleeding?

Somnolent response:

I'll explain later. (Scene changes.)

Dementedly demented:

Because my skin is torn. Hence, my dear fellow, it cannot contain the blood which is supposed to be inside the skin. 🤷‍♂️

Oh. Indeed. What caused it?

I was shot. 🤷‍♂️

By whom?

People with guns. 🤷‍♂️

You're not making this clearer, are you?

Why not? 🤷‍♂️

(Raining quills and ink. Thunderstorm of seagulls.)

Because I Said So

This bit is quite common, thus writers "unconsciously" put it in the script. Well, that would be amusing looking at an unconscious bloke typing on a typewriter.
