Definition von throwaway line im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

A line of dialog that suggests new plot lines but that mean little or nothing in the current context

I was intrigued by the exchange in one of the opening scenes where the Warden says to Snake: You flew the wing-five over Leningrad, didn't you? It turns out to be just a throwaway line, but for a moment it worked like the best SF, where a casual reference can imply a lot. http://project.cyberpunk.ru/idb/gibson_interview.html.
