* At the beginning of ''[[Wolfenstein: The Old Blood]]'', protagonist [[Awesome McCoolname|B.J. Blazkowicz]] is caught by the enemy and tossed in the Jail Pit. Fortunately for him, there’s a pipe he can climb to the top, where the stupid guards have left the grate open. ''Unfortunately'', the pipe breaks when he tries it. ''Fortunately'', he can then use the broken pipe like climbing spikes to scale the wall, and find that the gate in front of the pit has also been left wide open. ''Unfortunately'', there’s a [[Killer Robot|nasty-looking robot]] patrolling the area. ''Fortunately'', all B.J. has to do to “defeat” it is throw a switch on a generator that shuts it off. Then the game truly begins, and he can start busting Nazi heads. |

* ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]''. Link’s attempt to rescue his sister from the Forsaken Fortress doesn’t start out very well. (He’s catapulted there, only to miss his target and collide with a wall with a loud splat, then tumbles into the water below, losing his sword in the process. ). A brief cutscene later, this ends with the guards throwing Link into a cell. Fortunately for Link, all he has to do to escape and continue his mission is break the vase on the shelf above the cot (and any Zelda fan knows that this is something Link does all the time) to reveal a hole in the wall he can crawl through. Even worse, for the remainder of the level, if the guards catch him, ''they throw him in the same cell''. |

* In ''[[Fallout New Vegas]]'', this is Zigzagged with Benny, who double-crosses the protagonist at the beginning of the story and ''tries'' to dispose of them with a bullet to the head. Unfotunately for him, he has bad aim and is not smart enough to take a pulse, so your character survives - with revenge on their mind later. |
