In the 2000 comedy hit 'Meet the Parents,' Jack Byrnes (played by Robert De Niro) intensely interrogates Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) about his honesty. In this iconic scene, Jack famously asks, 'Did I not clearly explain the Circle of Trust to you?' while creating a physical boundary with his hands. This moment captures the high-stakes, intimidating energy of a father-in-law vetting his daughter's partner. As a meme, it is used to represent feelings of exclusion, betrayal, or the consequences of breaking a social pact. It perfectly encapsulates the drama of being 'ousted' from a group or secret circle. Example captions include: 'When you find out the group chat has another group chat without you' or 'When your dog ignores the one boundary you set in the house.' It remains a go-to template for calling out someone who has violated a specific rule or expectation.
