The character's thoughts are dubbed into the soundtrack, often with a slight reverb. One frequently used subversion is when other characters hear what is said and respond in their own thoughts. It's mostly used when two characters use this device in the same scene. This can be milked for comedy if the character switches from inner to outer monologue accidentally. Also known as a Stream of Consciousness. In literature, of course, including an inner monologue is essentially the default state in a way that isn't the case in TV, movies, or other media. When a monologue is being emphasised in printed media for whatever reason, you'll often find the use of Think in Text to make it distinctive.

When a monologue is being emphasised in printed media for whatever reason, you'll often find the use of Think in Text to make it distinctive. If the character intentionally says this "out loud" to an empty room (the audience), then it is a simple Soliloquy. If another character responds or reacts, even though they shouldn't be able to, that's Inner Monologue Conversation. Compare with Narrator, Captain's Log, and Sounding It Out. A specific example is the Private Eye Monologue. Contrast Surrogate Soliloquy, when the thoughts are forced out at an inanimate or nonsentient target to avoid voiceover. A closely related Video Game trope is I Can't Use These Things Together. Examples of Inner Monologue include:
