A character talks to their reflection in the mirror. Usually, it's a male character giving himself a pep talk.

If the reflection talks back, it's a case of The Man in the Mirror Talks Back. If they're practicing a speech to someone else, it can be a Trick Dialogue — and may feature Unaccustomed as I Am to Public Speaking.... If it's delivered to some other object—a pet, a tombstone, a skull—it's a Surrogate Soliloquy. If the character winds up shattering the mirror in a fit of anger or sorrow, it's Rage Against the Reflection. If they say something along the lines of 'You Talkin' to Me?', it's a reference to the famous scene from Taxi Driver.

A variation of this trope does not involve the character speaking. This version of the trope shows a stressed character washing their face at a wash basin, then staring at themselves in the mirror.

Examples:

• Claire Stanfield in Baccano! has one while finishing off his Madness Makeover:
  'Lemures...The Russo family...Don't make me laugh. I'll be your monster. The one that will devour you all. From now on, just for you, I will be your Rail Tracer!'
• In Sailor Moon SuperS Sailor Jupiter's mind is increasingly befuddled in Nehelenia's lair and she finds herself having a conversation with her reflection. Her 'reflection' convinces her to give up, since it controlled by the Big Bad. Next goes on to Mercury, Venus and Jupiter, but only Moon is unconvinced for once.
• In the Death Note anime, Light does this while contemplating the likelihood that he'll have to kill his little sister. Misa listens outside.
• Lu Xiao from Infinity Game did this in a flashback in hopes she'd gain enough courage to talk to Long Wei.

Sample Monologue Script

• The Flash villain Mirror Master has an inner monologue in front of a bathroom mirror, where, for the first time, his history is divulged. He gets over his depression by doing some cocaine on a hand mirror, thinking 'I'm still in Wonderland.'
• In Preacher, Herr Starr psyched himself up before a fight by repeating the words 'Doom cock' in front of a mirror. It would be an understatement to claim that his Trauma Conga Line has led to a bit of Sanity Slippage.

• Showed up in cartoon strip Doonesbury, with the mirror talking back.
• The same gag was subconsciously stolen by Berkeley Breathed for Bloom County (Milo talking to the mirror).
• In Calvin and Hobbes, Susie is hit by a snowball, which was obviously thrown by Calvin. After getting trashed by her after she asked if he did it (Answered Calvin: 'Who, me?!'), he's next shown practicing various ways of saying 'Who, me?' in front of the mirror like a snowball-throwing 6-year-old Travis Bickle.

• In Silent Trio 4: Harry and the Return of Sirius Black Dumbledore orders Harry to apologize to the Muggle Studies professor for insulting her competence and walking out of class. He uses a mirror to practice, coming up with one Backhanded Apology after another.
  Harry: I apologise for knowing more about your subject than you do.
  I am sorry I made it obvious in class that you have no idea about the Muggle world.
  I am sorry for disrupting class by telling the truth.
  [Harry shrugs.]
  It's the thought that counts.
