Line 1: {{trope}} {{quote\|''"I got this, Mung. '''''I GOT THIS!'''"~~\|'''[[Chowder]]'''}}~~ \|'''[[Chowder]]'''}} The good guys are on their way to kill the [[Big Bad]] or rescue the [[Damsel in Distress]], but they only make it so far before a bad guy pops up and gives them the old [[You Shall Not Pass]]. Inevitably, one of the team will step up and say, "You guys go on ahead. I'll take care of this guy." He then stays behind to fight the villain while the rest of the group moves on. Line 46 ⟶ 47: == [[Fan ~~Fiction~~Works]] == * This has happened in ''[[The Tainted Grimoire]]''. When {{spoiler\|Crow}} appears while Clan Gully and their comrades is trying to rescue {{spoiler\|Baron Beltorey and Cid}}, Luso takes him on alone and the rest of his group moves on. * Happens in the ''[[Pokemon]]'' fanfic ''[[Blood in The Water]]'': All of the 'Dex Holders appear as [[The ~~Calvalry~~Cavalry]], but then it is revealed that [[The Starscream\|Franz]] has sent the remaining Elite Four members and the hypnotized Gym Leaders after the protagonists. This changes the possible outcome of the scenario entirely, as now the inexperienced Trainers are the only ones left to face the [[Big Bad]]. As the three protagonists leave, the audience is greeted with this badass scene: {{quote\|'''Blue:''' draws a Pokeball from her pocket Do you think they'll be okay? '''Green:''' They're decent enough trainers. enlarges a Pokeball in his hand '''Gold:''' Not as good as us though, right? grins '''Silver:''' scoffs '''Red:''' silently staring at the approaching enemy '''Green:''' Go! all Dex Holders throw their Pokeballs simultaneously }} ** It later happens again: Anna and Siobhan are forced to stay behind and battle Franz himself, while Haleigh goes on to fight Josh. Line 73 ⟶ 74: == Literature == * [[Older Than Radio]] example combined with [[Rule of Three]] in ''[[The Three Musketeers (novel)\|The Three Musketeers]]'': when d'Artagnan and his friends are in secret mission to London, the Cardinal's agents try three times to ambush or derail them in different ways. Each time one of the musketeers is left behind taking care of the enemies while the rest carry on, until at the end d'Artagnan is the only one who arrives to London. * ''[[~~Harry Potter/~~Harry Potter and ~~The~~the Philosopher's Stone (novel)\|Harry Potter ~~And~~and ~~The~~the Philosopher's Stone]]'': Ron takes charge of {{spoiler\|the chess game and sacrifices himself}}, Hermione solves {{spoiler\|the potion riddle}}, leaving Harry to deal with {{spoiler\|the Mirror and Voldemort}}. ** Which doesn't translate so well into the film where the potion scene doesn't happen, and Hermione leaves... just because. Line 91 ⟶ 92: == Webcomic == * ''[[No Need for Bushido]]'' has [https://web.archive.org/web/20130717101705/http://noneedforbushido.com/2009/comic/359/ an instance] of this... done by a random enemy mook, with predictable results.
