Trouser Space: Difference between revisions

* In the first episode of ''[[Trigun]]'', the strap on Millie's "stun gun" breaks and it falls on the floor from where it's concealed. She's wearing a very voluminous cloak and later on she's revealed to be wearing a shirt, tie, and slacks underneath, but it's nonetheless a rather alarming sight. Not least because what she terms a "stun gun" is the size of a minigun that fires ammo which appears to have been made on the assumption that the "stun" they were shooting for was "clobber into submission".

* In the G8 filler of ''[[One Piece]]'', Luffy hid the inflatable octopus from Skypiea in his pants. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDiLLZXZCu8 Everyone was confused.]

'''Luffy''': Down where? }}

* ''[[Sexy Commando]]''

* From ''[[Kiss Kiss Bang Bang]]'', Gay Perry pulls a gun from here. It freaks Harry out.

* From ''[[Blazing Saddles]]'':

(Or was it disappointment?) }}

* Done with a not ridiculously large object in ''[[Snatch]]'', but still lampshaded and spoofed. At one point two wannabe gangsters are going to turn over a huge diamond to a mob boss in order to get themselves out of trouble with said mob boss. When they're outside the mobster's headquarters, it turns out that the slightly [[The Ditz|ditzy]] one has hidden it in [[Trouser Space]]. The Following conversation takes place:

'''Sol:''' You're not from this planet are you, Vincent? Who is gonna mug two black fellas, who're holding pistols, while sitting in a car that's worth less than your shirt?!! }}

** And then right after this, a different gangster who is after the diamond taps on the window of their car with his [[Hand Cannon|Desert Eagle]]. It turns out [[Trouser Space]] actually keeps the diamond hidden a little longer.

* Bill on ''[[The Red Green Show]]'' is a master of this trope, constantly pulling things out of "storage space" in his overalls, up to and including a ''whole bicycle''.

* Richie in ''[[Bottom]]'' fit a whole BBC camera in down there.

* The ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode, "The Runaway Bride". Donna is forced to [[Lampshade Hanging|hang a lampshade]] on how The Doctor manages to carry around a large two-handed R/C controller complete with aerial in his trousers.

* In the first episode of ''[[Wiseguy]]'', [[The Mafia]] is surprised to see an [[Arms Dealer]] bring his woman to their meeting. As things go badly we see her casually unbuttoning her skirt (how she does this [[Not Distracted by the Sexy|without attracting attention]] is not explained), then she somehow produces an [[Cool Guns|Ingram MAC-10]] and starts blazing away. Now admittedly the MAC-10 is quite small for an SMG, but it's still a large chunk of metal to be hiding between your legs while wearing a tight skirt. It's worth noting that this scene was based on a real-life arms deal in which the narrator noticed the women at the meeting were concealing firearms between their legs just from the way they sat down.

* In the episode 6 of Al TV, during an interview with [[Ozzy Osbourne]], [["Weird Al" Yankovic]] recalls that it's just where he's put his bologna sandwich.

* In a season 3 episode of ''[[Due South]]'', Fraser manages to smuggle files for Ray out of the police station by hiding them in the front of his trousers.

Fraser: Yes, but I am not empty trouser-ed. }}

** Possibly justified, the jodhpurs probably have enough space for it at least.

** Don't forget the large ''dog'' he's able to shove into his coat.

** At one point in ''LeChuck's Revenge'', he finds his entire (usually sizable by that point) inventory has been into a single manila envelope, which he can (and really should) pick up and put in his pants. Upon opening it....

** The storing-stuff-in-his-pants aspect is returned and played up even more in ''Curse of Monkey Island'', especially as you see Guybrush putting everything into and out of his pants. This includes a 60-pound block of tofu at one point in the game.

** Don't forget the banana picker Guybrush puts in his pants at one point. And there's a scene in the third game where he's stuck in quicksand: "Hang on, the quicksand is sucking all the cool stuff I found in that snake from my pants. Now THERE'S an odd sensation."

** Many of these same jokes make it into ''[[Homestar Runner|Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]'', as many of the Lucasarts people from the MI series reconvened at Telltale.

* [[Lampshaded]] in the computer game ''[[Space Quest]] III'':

* And again in ''[[Space Quest]] VI'', after trying to pick up a plank:

* Speaking of [[Sierra]], this trope is [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] ''[[Leisure Suit Larry]] 2: Looking for Love (In Several Wrong Places)'' where Larry has to collect a 36-gallon trashcan-sized Grotesque Gulp soda. The narrator wonders how Larry's going to carry it with him...and then remembers that this is an adventure game and lets Larry just stuff the drink in his pocket.

* [[Tex Murphy]] pulls a 4-foot long bamboo pole out of his in ''The Pandora Directive''.

* In the webcomic ''[[RPG World]]'', the party's inventory is kept in Hero's pants. This led to an amusing scene when the others had to retrieve items while Hero was unconscious.

* In [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0261.html this] ''[[Order of the Stick]]'' strip, Belkar says that he concealed his Ring of Jumping somewhere he was "reasonably certain no one would search". Gee, I wonder what finger he's wearing it on?

** And as the comic goes on, he shows that he has much more than just the one knife in there. On at least two occasions, Black Mage has stabbed his targets with enough knives to open a silverware store.

* As Dan of ''[[Dan and Mab's Furry Adventures]]'' demonstrates, [http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_689.php you can hide all sorts of cool things in a dress.]

* ''[[Ghastlys Ghastly Comic|Ghastly's Ghastly Comic]]'' naturally [http://www.ghastlycomic.com/d/20030105.html parodied this one].

* [[Nip and Tuck]]: Tuck objects to Thelma Possum trying to feed him with candy she kept in her pouch;

"I told you, it fell in through a hole in my pocket!" }}

 

* An episode of ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'' had Francis the Bully shoplifting and sticking increasingly enormous items into his pants, including a large-screen TV, a generator, a car tire, and a 55 gallon drum.

* One episode of ''[[Total Drama Island]]'' features Cody somehow storing a loaf of bread and a can of soda in his pants without any apparent difficulty walking.

'''Gwen''': With bread from your ''pants?!'' }}

* The dragons in ''[[Dragon Tales]]'' have pouches that they can store seemingly anything in. They don't wear pants, but it's close.
