A classic play by [[Jean-Paul Sartre]] that's highly popular in [[
{{tropelist}}
* [[Badass Pacifist]]: Garcin thinks he's this, but he's really a [[Dirty Coward]].
* [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]: Estelle
Line 14:
* [[Dead to Begin With]]: Our protagonists.
* [[Dirty Coward]]: Garcin deserted and met his end by firing squad.
* [["Everybody Laughs" Ending]]: A uniquely dark and disturbing example.
* [[Freudian Trio]]: Garcin is Ego, the mostly critical Ines eventually becomes the Superego (while acting like Id at first), and Estelle reveals herself to be Id.
* [[Hell Hotel]]: Arguably, this is the inversion (rather than an Earthly hotel being hellish, Hell is a rather normal Earthly hotel--on the surface anyway).
Line 20:
* [[Jerkass]]: The three of them in life, which comes to be used as their mutual hell.
* [[Mundane Afterlife]]
* [[One
* [[Psycho Lesbian]]: Ines, it's never out right stated that she's a lesbian, but it's pretty clear she is, and she's plenty psycho.
* [[Sealed Room in
* [[Self
* [[Triang Relations]]: Type 4, though describing it as a ''love'' triangle might be a bit too kind.
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: The Play.
* [[Villain Protagonist]]: All of the characters.
* [[Write Who You Know]]: Garcin is based on the author, Jean-Paul Sartre. Ines is based on his long-term significant other, feminist [[Simone de Beauvoir]].
* [[Yandere]]: Estelle was displeased by one of her lovers, so she took a horrible revenge {{spoiler|by throwing their child off a balcony in front of him}}.
* [[Year Inside, Hour Outside]]: Inverted: During the play, the characters have visions of life progressing without them on Earth, and it seems like unlike usual Hells in which an eternity is actually a second, what feels like a brief time in Hell is actually several months on the outside.
