Defenestrate and Berate	comment	It's a scenario when a couple is breaking up. The man is leaving his wife or girlfriend. Perhaps he has cheated on her, and the woman is showing both her ire and her desire to be rid of this man and all memory of his presence in her life by throwing his belongings out of the window of the dwelling they shared up until she discovered the infidelity or other dealbreaking thing he's done. This is usually accompanied by the woman screaming or faux-calmly berating him for what he's done, or delivering the litany of reasons he's being dumped along with his belongings. For maximum amusement factor, the window is usually at least on the second story of a building (Tossing stuff out the first floor window isn't funny; tossing stuff out a higher window could be dangerous to passerby, and not just humiliating and inconvenient for the cheating boyfriend). The hapless guy's reaction tends to run: He's desperately trying to explain it's not what she thinks. He's begging forgiveness He's trying to prevent her from tossing a particular item [it's either something he values highly or something extremely heavy that will make a large destructive impact when it lands]. There are bonus points of amusement for the hapless man getting beaned with his own prized possessions, like trophies or other sports memorabilia. Darker, less humorous versions of this trope tend to have the woman taking fire (see Break-Up Bonfire) or razors to the cheater's belongings. This variant does get used with men as well as women, when a divorcing husband trashes his own stuff rather than let his wife's lawyers take it away from him. Note that in Real Life being upset with your significant other does not give you the right to damage their property or evict them from their home; Carrie Underwood lyrics to the contrary notwithstanding.note Point of fact, this, as well as a number of other tropes that often appear in romantic comedies, is in fact a crime for which you can be prosecuted. So, technically, you can go ahead and break their shit, as long as it's worth it to you. Surprisingly, this one is often used in commercials. Especially in Mexican commercials, since the phrase "tirar la casa por la ventana" (literally, "defenestrating the house") means "throwing a huge party". See Tantrum Throwing for a milder version of the trope. Compare Appliance Defenestration when someone is so aggravated with whatever they're doing they chuck it out the window. Also see Destination Defenestration when it's a person that gets tossed out of the window. Also see It's All Junk. Examples

Defenestrate and Berate / int_ec02633a	comment	Happens in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, albeit in dialogue only. If Geralt drops Yennefer for Triss, then Yennefer throws out Geralt's bed from his room at Kaer Mohren. The reason here is that he slept in it with Triss.

Defenestrate and Berate / int_f0a86c12	comment	How I Met Your Mother: Inverted by Ted who keeps many belongings from old ex-girlfriends, but Robin (whom he was dating throughout season 2) is uncomfortable with them and demands he gets rid of it all, which turns out to be almost everything he owns. On the other hand, Ted himself is uncomfortable when he finds out Robin got all her dogs from ex-boyfriends, and Robin decides to send them to a farm (literally). However, when they get back to Ted's apartment she sees that he has gotten back everything he threw out. This culminates in a huge argument that Future Ted struggles to remember, but it somehow ends with the two deciding to move in together. In season 8, Ted had a crazy relationship with the psychotic Jeanette. After making up with her in one episode and Ted inviting her in his apartment, she finds out Barney's Playbook, whom she thought was Ted's, and she throws him out of his apartment and threw out all his stuff that he had collected from his exes, along with the book.

Defenestrate and Berate / int_f61ea51b	comment	Interview with the Vampire (2022): In "Like Angels Put in Hell by God", although there's no berating because Louis de Pointe du Lac is giving Lestat de Lioncourt the Silent Treatment, his act of throwing his boyfriend's coffin out the second floor window of their townhouse speaks volumes.

Defenestrate and Berate / int_f6530c73	comment	Waiting to Exhale. Angela Bassett's character Bernadine gets dumped by her husband for another woman. This is after she's spent the last 11 years sacrificing her dreams of owning her own business to help him build his. Her reaction? Taking his entire very expensive wardrobe, stuffing it in his very expensive car and setting the whole shebang on fire. And what she couldn't get in the car, she sold. For a dollar.note Apparently the car in question was a gift to the studio by a car company who wanted some free publicity. They were not pleased by the publicity they ended up getting.

Defenestrate and Berate / int_f6c05e8e	comment	Season 1 of Friends has Rachel throwing out Paolo's stuff from her balcony. They were supposed to have a romantic weekend off, and he hit on Rachel's friends Phoebe. He's the classic Romantic False Lead (the original, natch). There's even a special Establishing Shot of the apartment building showing his clothes falling onto the sidewalk.

Defenestrate and Berate / int_fc1d6ac6	comment	In the second book of The Witcher cycle, Sword of Destiny, there's a story where Geralt, looking for his friend Dandelion through the streets of Novigrad, comes at the some commotion, and sees Dandelion trying to catch his stuff that his current lover, Vespula, throws at him from the window, berating him for unfaithfulness all the time. He makes a point of staying until he can get his prized lute back from her the obvious way. Hilariously, one of the items she tosses is another man's trousers, implying she might not have been so faithful either. What's interesting, is that during The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, some dozen years later, she apparently remembers him fondly.
