Line 4: This is a [[Comedy]] trope in which when you grab the contents of a jar, your hand winds up getting stuck, because of the way you have a grip on it. The difference between this and [[Hand in the Hole]] is with [['''Clutching Hand Trap]]''', the victim does it on their will, since they both want what's inside, and know what's inside. Example, when [[Bratty Half-Pint]] wants a cookie from the cookie jar. [[Hand in the Hole]] is when the victim is being an [[What an Idiot!\|idiot]] and has no idea what's in there but is inserting their hand anyway. This trope can come with [[An Aesop]] about greediness if the character is unable to get their hand out of the jar because they're holding too much food.
