Line 1:
{{trope}}
In any given movie or TV show, anytime there is a scene set in a parking garage, something bad is about to happen or has happened. Indeed, '''[[Nothing Good Ever Happens in aA Parking Garage''']].
 
The reasons for this are many. A parking garage is an inherently boring place. There is ''nothing'' to do there but park one's car or drive it out of the garage. Since in a time-sensitive movie or TV show this is padding, no scene taking place in a parking garage will consist of a single character getting into a single car and driving away.
Line 16:
Related: Any scene set under an elevated section of highway.

* Becomes a plot point in [[The Movie]] of ''[[Ghost in the Shell]]''. Togusa is on stakeout in his car when he notices that the automatic doors for the parking garage take longer to close than they normally would. He then finds out that the pressure-sensitive floor picked up far more weight than the two people he saw walking in. {{spoiler|The reason is because mooks with optical camouflage snuck in behind them.}}
