This is a compound trope at best; sometimes there's a card, sometimes not. Sometimes it's just a membership card or other form of identification that's presented, but not given. Sometimes they say something else when it's presented... but you get the idea. If the card itself is important it occasionally becomes Chekhov's Gun if the recipient discovers later they need its information. * "Let me give you my card", the abbreviated version "My card", or the incredibly formal "Allow me to introduce myself" accompanies some physical device, usually a business card in the trope's purest form, to remember them by. * "Call Me" is often the dating version of the above business-like version. There is often a card, but just as often a phone number on any piece of paper. * "If you should happen to remember anything else", and its many variants, are distinctly reserved for detectives or other government agents finishing primary questioning of a witness that seems incomplete. * "I'm with" or "I'm from" followed by some company name usually precedes the displaying of identification, which may or may not be genuine.
