Leave Behind a Pistol: Difference between revisions

 

 

* An episode of ''[[Foyle's War]]'' has Foyle confront a businessman who'd been dealing with the Nazis with the fact that, as a result of his dirty dealings, his business empire is crumbling, his son's been arrested for murder, his wife has left him, and his reputation is ruined. He then leaves the businessman and walks outside—and we hear a shot. Foyle's lack of reaction indicates that he expected this.

** In another episode, he offers a gay airman implicated in a murder the chance to fly one last mission in The Battle Of Britain. His plane is shot down. He does not bail out.

* In ''[[Blake's 7|Blakes Seven]]'', Avon captures a professional Federation [[Torture Technician|torturer]] and teleports him to an underground cave with a limited air supply. He offers the man a "way out" if he tells him what he wants to know about his [[It's Personal|ex-lover]] who was supposedly tortured to death. After the man breaks down and tells Avon all he can, Avon coldly teleports away, leaving him his "way out": a loaded gun.

* In ''[[Mara Daughter of the Nile]]'', when Thutmose reclaims the throne from Hatsheput, he offers her a poisoned goblet. She accepts, on the condition she be allowed to drink it in the privacy of her chambers, although Thutmose accompanies her as a witness.
