Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Some fancy object is sitting out in the open at a museum, carefully protected by velvet ropes and laser-security systems. Sometimes it's encased in a carefully monitored glass case. Fat chance it'll stay there for the entire movie. In caper movies, objects like this are just asking to be stolen via a "Mission: Impossible" Cable Drop. Rest assured, if a tour group is looking at it in Act One, expect it to be stolen by Act Three. In horror movies, the object will be Sealed Evil in a Can. In action films, nearly anything is possible: the object might need stealing, or it might be a bomb... it all depends on the plot. Often overlaps with Break Out the Museum Piece, although that trope often is usually legally done as opposed to illegally. |

Sherlock, "The Great Game": When Watson sees the news report about the Baker Street explosion, there's also a news item about the new Vermeer painting at the museum. It doesn't get stolen, but it does turn out to be important. | |

The Mayan Talisman in The Labyrinth of Time plays with this. In a futuristic Lunar Museum, the display where it would be is empty. Then, later in the game, you are able to alter time to allow archaeologist Martin Garrett to actually find it. Then you steal it from the museum after it's put on display. | |

The Highlander episode The Lady And The Tiger featured a McGuffin under glass that the immortal cat burglar Amanda Devereaux wanted to steal before her former-partner-turned nemesis Zachary Blaine (played by Jason Isaacs, very early in his career) got to them. Another episode saw MacLeod asking for Amanda's assistance in retrieving the Cross of Saint Antoine from the house of the Evil Immortal of the Week. The EIOTW kept the cross in a big glass case in his foyer. |

Moonraker featured an entire museum full of glass artifacts. Not thirty minutes later, we get to see every last bit of it trashed when Bond fights The Dragon, a Kendo champion who insists on going after him with a shinai. Bond manages to repel him with a glass-handled sword that was shown earlier. | |

In the Whateley Universe, some people are smart enough to think about this. After Team Kimba stops a team of mutant ninjas raiding the campus, the school has the secret device the ninjas were carrying, and the headmistress shows them the glass case in the school museum. But it's a hologram of the real thing, which is locked up a lot more securely. Still, they pull this trope out at Halloween when the headmistress is fighting Deathlist. | |

With Strings Attached: The first piece of the Vasyn is in New Zork's Museum of Natural History. Since no one there has any idea that the thing has value to anyone besides geologists, or that anyone could possibly steal it—it's 20 feet of solid rock, weighing at least 90 tons—it's not guarded at all. | |

The Expel Mirror in Persona is introduced as the centerpiece of a museum exhibit. It turns out later that you need the mirror in order to fight a boss; however, the only obstacle to the protagonists finding it is that going to the museum in the first place is entirely optional, so many players will have no idea where to look for it. While Philemon does tell you what you need, you have to make the leap of logic that "artifact = museum" yourself. | |
