Line 63:
* ''The Candidate'' (1972) ends with Robert Redford's title character, a dark horse candidate for U.S. Senate, winning the election (which nobody, least of all the heroes, had expected). During the victory party in his hotel suite, he finds a quiet moment to ask his campaign manager, in a horrified tone, "So. What do we do ''now''?".
** [[Fridge Logic|Um, be a Senator, perhaps?]]
* ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' almost ends with Frodo feeling like this. {{spoiler|So he leaves with the elves.}}
** Firmly averted by Sam, though, who comes home, marries his true love, raises a family, and lives happily ever after.
*** In the book, it's mentioned that eventually he ends up leaving Middle-Earth as well.
