Face Death with Despair | comment |
When some characters realize they are about to die, they Face Death with Dignity, calmly accepting their fate. But other characters...not so much. This trope is when a character completely breaks in the face of death, pleading for their life, reduced to Inelegant Blubbering, or expressing a complete lack of desire to die. Some choose to completely shed any trace of dignity as they're about to die. This trope can be used to invoke different audience reactions depending on how it applies to your characters. On a sympathetic or likeable character, it becomes a tool used for horror, shock, and tragedy as said character suffers in their final moments. A strong audience reaction often happens if the likeable or sympathetic character about to die is a young child. If your character is a Hate Sink or otherwise unsympathetic, it can be a source of satisfaction, letting karma play out for everything that character's done. The latter is more likely to go out with an utter lack of dignity. Often this is the prelude to a Cruel and Unusual Death. The trope can be indicative of a Hesitant Sacrifice. After all, someone who dies unwillingly is prone to panic in their final moments. This can be a Karmic Death for those who kill or cheat in cold blood. Ain't Too Proud to Beg is a very common overlapping trope because times are just that desperate. The people who beg the most tend to be those at their most vulnerable, like felled villains or innocent normies caught in a bad spot. Of course, there's the possibility those who care little about dignity are stalling for time, or lowering their executioner's guard for a counter of their own. The character doesn't even have to die in the end for the trope to count, just their reaction to facing death can warrant this kind of response. This is different from Oh, Crap! in that in the former, a character simply realizes that things are about to get really ugly. Often overlaps with Villains Want Mercy, Please, I Will Do Anything!, Oh, Crap!, This Cannot Be!, Tears of Fear, and Villainous Breakdown. Compare Undignified Death, which has to do with deaths that are embarrassing or ridiculous. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: At the end of Part 2, Lord Voldemort is killed by his own Killing Curse spell when it rebounds after his final Horcrux is destroyed. But unlike in the novel, where he instantly drops dead, Voldemort lives long enough to see his body disintegrating into dust and his final emotion is one of pure fear and agony as he realizes his worst fear coming to life. | |

The Simpsons: The Halfway Plot Switch of "The Fat and the Furriest" begins with Homer encountering a bear when he goes to the dump yard and him breaking down in horror (curling up, crying, screaming, apparently wetting himself, etc.). This actually saves Homer because it annoys the bear into walking away. But then it turns out a hunter caught it on camera and gave it to the news, which leads to the whole town mocking Homer for his lack of bravery in the face of a horrible death, which leads to Homer becoming obsessed with fighting the bear so he can regain his manliness. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist: Gluttony, who is betrayed and devoured by his fellow homunculus Pride, spends his last moments crying out how it hurts, begging not to be eaten, and calling out for the long-dead Lust to save him. Gluttony's death is a case of this trope played for sympathy, as all the heroes who witness it are shocked and disgusted by Pride's actions. While he can't die due to being immortal, Homunculus/Father's final fate is essentially to return from whence he came: beyond The Door to Truth. Upon being condemned, even as the hands from within lash out to pull him inside, he cries out and panics as Truth fixes him with the same usual blank grin, and even remarks that his final punishment is "despair for the conceited", indirectly invoking this trope by name. |

I'm not ready at all!", an ironic reference to his earlier Villain Song "Friends on the Other Side" where one of the choruses was "Are you ready?" | |

Cross Ange: Poor, poor Miranda Campbell. Her last minutes of life are not pretty, so it's easy to see why she'd go out screaming and crying. Not only does she watch her friend Coco so suddenly die in brutal fashion, but she then gets knocked off her Paramail and caught in the jaws of a ravenous DRAGON, as several more come to eat her alive. All she can do is scream for Ange — who is attempting to leave Arzenal because she doesn't think she's a Norma — to come and save her before the DRAGONs tear her limb from limb. There are even Tears of Fear shown in Miranda's eyes as she falls, right before the DRAGONs get her. Ange sees Miranda's horrible death as well, and then the DRAGONs attack her, sending her into a hysteric panic as she tries to get away from the man-eating beasts, not wanting to share the same fate. | |

A variation is seen in Corpse Bride. At the very end, after Lord Barkis, who tricked Emily, the titular corpse bride, into stealing her family's jewels and eloping with him so that he could kill and rob her is defeated, he decides to walk away from Victoria, his recent Impoverished Patrician wife (whom he likely would've killed once he received his dowry, or in a fit of rage since her father couldn't afford it), as well as Victor and Emily's wedding, the residents of the Land of the Dead want to punish him, but Elder Gutknecht holds them back saying that as they're in the Land of the Living, they need to follow their rules. When Barkis gives a sarcastic wedding toast that lambasts Emily, he drinks the poisoned wine meant for Victor and dies, Gutknecht realizes that the rules of the dead now apply to Barkis as well, and tells the others "he's all yours." As the crowd of the Dead slowly approaches Barkis, he screams in a panic and desperately tries to open the door behind him to escape, which is eventually opened by the group of dead spirits that drag him off to a gruesome Fate Worse than Death. | |

This trope is extremely common in Attack on Titan, to a point where you could pick out more examples where this trope was averted than played straight. Justified in that this is a setting in which humans are tasked with slaying hordes of mindless giants with a taste for their blood, so watching comrades die horribly is the norm for these characters. | |

As NKVD chief he arranged the death, imprisonment, and suffering of countless people without batting an eye, but when it's his turn to be executed, Beria breaks down into a blubbering coward and begs for mercy up until the moment he's silenced by a bullet. The circumstances were even more pathetic in Real Life: Before killing him, Beria's executioner ended up shoving a sock into his mouth just to stop his incessant groveling. | |

The Twilight Zone: "The Obsolete Man". Romney Wordsworth is sentenced to death for being obsolete, but invites the Chancellor who sentenced him to participate in his execution. Wordsworth locks the door, and announces there is a bomb that will kill both of them. Wordsworth calmly accepts his fate and reads his Bible, while the Chancellor pathetically begs for his life. Wordsworth lets the Chancellor go at the last second. The Chancellor is himself found obsolete by the tribunal, and is beaten to death by its members. | |

Avengers: Infinity War: When Thanos takes Gamora to Vormir to get the Soul Stone, the Red Skull says that in order to get it, whoever seeks it must sacrifice the person they love most. Thanos sheds tears upon hearing this, and Gamora, who was abused by Thanos most her life, laughs at the revelation that he will never possess the stone since he didn't love anyone, only for Red Skull that he cries not because he can't have the stone, but what he must do to get it, and Thanos softly tells Gamora: "I'm sorry little one." As he sadly drags her to the edge of the cliff, she tries freeing herself and begs him not to throw her off by desperately crying out: "This isn't love, This isn't love!" Once Peter Parker realizes that he's being turned to dust by Thanos's snap, he starts crying, embraces Tony Stark, and pleads, "I don't want to go. Please, Mr. Stark, I don't want to go." Considering he's a 16-year-old kid, this is a perfectly understandable reaction. |

The Owl House: In Season 3, Emperor Belos/Philip Wittebane faces the prospect of dying as his decaying body is falling apart and he is nowhere close to completing his goal of wiping out the witches of the Boiling Isles. He is genuinely afraid of death because he knows deep down he is guilty of murdering his brother Caleb and the many Grimwalkers based on him, and doesn't want to die without performing a "heroic" deed to override his sins. After he's defeated by Luz in the Grand Finale, Belos ends up melting in the boiling rain and the former Emperor ends up begging Luz to save him, claiming that they are both humans and are better than the "evil" witches.

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc: Played for Horror in the first execution during the killing game (after the one from the prologue). Leon Kuwata, having just been found out by the rest of the class for killing a classmate, is dragged away to be executed, but not before he breaks down into screaming and tears, complete with a Big "NO!". As the first execution in the game, none of the other students have precedent for what to expect, so Leon's death is made as painful and cruel as possible to show just how the stakes are for everyone. Played With in the final execution. Junko Enoshima, after failing to convince the survivors to vote for Makoto and stay in Hope's Peak Academy, decides to execute herself so that she can feel the "despair of death"... except that her brain is so warped that despair causes her what can be observed as absolute joy and glee, and faces the execution with a constant maniacal grin on her face, which only vanishes moments before her end, when the crusher that should be killing her malfunctions and replaces her despair with confusion. |

In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Legate Broca asks that he be allowed to speak to the Cardassian rebellion to get them to stand down before the Dominion commits genocide against the entire planet. The Founder Leader says it's equally likely that they will get Broca to defect, so she orders his execution. As the Jem'Hadar guards take him away, he begs to be spared and cries that he is loyal to the Founders. | |

The Four Gospels: Prior to the crucifixion, Jesus is said to have prayed overnight in the Garden of Gethsemane, so overcome with stress and fear that He wept blood. Given that He was to be tortured to death, this serves as a way to remind readers that Jesus was still susceptible to human failings and emotions, despite His divine nature. A famous passage of the crucifixion in is about Jesus agonizing on the cross, calling out to God, who He feels has abandoned Him. |

The hyenas, of course, won't buy that and jump over Scar as he cowers, begs, and tries to make excuses for his betrayal. However, the shadows show that he does at least go down fighting. | |

At the end of Creature Tech, when the revived Giant Space Eel is reunited with its original, revived, (alien) rider, Jameson, who wanted to use the eel to destroy the world, tries to kill Dr. Ong for ruining his plan. When Ong manages to get the Symbiote that Jameson is wearing, which gives its host superpowers, to kill him, it rejoins him (the Symbiote liked Ong better). As Jameson brags that his demon hand, which he got for selling his soul, would keep him from going to hell for his sins, Ong uses the Symbiote to chop off the hand. When the demon shows up with several companions, Jameson's taken to hell, and he fearfully states "I regret" as he's about to be eaten. | |

Secret Vampire: Poppy is absolutely terrified when she finds out she's got terminal cancer; she's only sixteen years old and naturally assumed she'd have her whole life ahead of her, she felt perfectly fine a few weeks ago and now she's only got about three months left to live. When James says he can save her by turning her into a vampire, she weighs up her options and quickly agrees, wanting to keep living even if she wouldn't be human anymore. She subsequently feels guilty when people praise her for being so brave and calm about her diagnosis, because she feels she's only able to cope with it because she knows she has a chance to be saved, and that she'd be a lot less calm if she didn't. | |

Akame ga Kill!: Chelsea breaks down in silent, defeated tears after suffering fatal wounds from Kurome's puppets, right before she is cut to pieces by Natala. Noticeably, she is the only Night Raider to not Go Out with a Smile. Seryu breaks down more noticeably as she lays blown in half, right before her Taking You with Me towards Mine. She starts sobbing noticeably loud when she sees her Imperial Arm and dog, Koro, is mortally damaged and can no longer regenerate, and that they're both going to die alone in the middle of nowhere. Run is ready to Face Death with Dignity after he suffers mortal injuries killing Champ, but his teammate, Kurome, refuses to let him die; she stabs him with Yatsufusa to bring him back to life, and Run can only react with heartbroken shock. After all, Yatsufusa cannot bring back the dead; it only reduces the people killed by it into People Puppets. But Kurome is pretty messed up mentally, and she personally believes she's saving Run. Run, meanwhile, can only express his lament that Kurome was warped to this extent to not just let him die with dignity. Syura gets a wonderful comeuppance at the hands of Lubbock and dies trying to deny that he's just had his neck snapped, that he can't die until he's made The Empire his hellish playground. As Izou lays dying, mortally wounded by Akame, he asks her to take up his sword, Kosetsu, and use it to cause even more bloodshed and destruction. Akame refuses to honor Izou's last wish and leaves him to die in despair. Dorothea, Syura's top subordinate, is outright pathetic when Leone is preparing to smash her to paste with a huge boulder, and she spends her last moments screaming and crying about not wanting to die, due to her Mortality Phobia. Prime Minister Honest, the Big Bad, goes out screaming and begging for his life as he faces a particularly cruel, unusual, and undignified death at the hands of a bunch of very angry Revolutionaries. |

Game of Thrones: Being in a Crapsack World that has a Zombie Apocalypse around the corner, there would be, at least, several characters facing their demise in despair: The Red Wedding shows Houses Bolton and Frey massacring the Stark bannermen. Catelyn Stark and her son, Robb, watch the entire thing happening including the brutal death of Robb's pregnant wife, Talisa. Towards the end, Catelyn takes Lord Walder Frey's wife at knifepoint and begs him to spare Robb, who she tells him to flee. However, Robb is in a state of hopelessness after witnessing the deaths of his wife and his unborn child. Then, Lord Roose Bolton stabs him in the gut while delivering the words, "The Lannisters send their regards." At this point, Catelyn loses it after seeing her son die and lets one of the Freys slash her throat, believing that everything that she and her son fought for is gone. In season 4, King Joffrey Baratheon begins coughing after drinking wine on his wedding day. Upon realizing that the wine he drank from has been poisoned, he panics as he begins to choke, vomit, and bleed horrendously before he finally dies with his last expression being that of pure terror. In season 5, Lord Janos Slynt disobeys a direct order from recently-elected Lord Commander Jon Snow. Since Slynt is a Dirty Coward who hid during the previous battle against the Wildlings and only got his "Lord" title by dishonorably betraying Lord Eddard Stark (Jon's father), he starts to blubber and beg when Jon Snow sentences him to death in a pathetic attempt to save his own life. In season 6, Lord Ramsay Bolton looses to Jon Snow in the Battle of Bastards where he's given to Sansa Stark to decide his fate. Sansa decides to have Ramsay's hounds devour him as punishment for the atrocities that he's committed. Though initially confident that his hounds won't eat him, he breaks down and spends his last moments terrified before hounds decide to eat him. In Season 7, Euron Greyjoy captures Ellaria and Tyene Sand during his raid on his niece's fleet. Then, he brings them in front of Cersei Lannister who is angry at them for the murder of her daughter. Cersei has them locked up in a cell, chained up, and gagged. As she remains furious at them for what they did to Myrcella, Cersei gloats about giving them a cruel punishment. Then, she gives Tyene a poisoned kiss using the same poison that killed Myrcella. When Tyene finds out what poison it is, she looks at Ellaria and tearfully cries, "Mama". Ellaria looks on in despair, knowing that she would watch her daughter die and rot for the rest of her life. As Cersei leaves, Tyene tries to reach out to her mother who also tries to comfort her as they remained chained up and gagged. In Season 7, Lord Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish gets exposed as the one who betrayed Ned Stark which kickstarted the War of the Five Kings. During the trial, he kneels down and begs Sansa Stark to spare him because he loves her. Sansa, who had been his pawn for most of the series, refuses and lets her sister, Arya, execute him. Queen Cersei Lannister does not handles herself any better, either: when Dany decides to finally embrace the Targaryen madness (because of Cersei's machinations) and orders her troops kill everybody on King's Landing, Cersei spends the whole sequence on a big state of Oh, Crap! that only deepens when she tries to escape and discovers the palace's escape tunnel caved in. She spends her last seconds before the ceiling falls on her and flattens her holding on to her brother, all while she cries and whines how she doesn't want to die. |

Maria no Danzai: Both Kowase and Shikimi break down once their fates are sealed, exactly as Maria intended. Left with no other options, Kowase tries to use the cleaver Maria left him to cut off his own hand. The blade breaks because it's an old cleaver and Kowase puts too much force while trying to cut the bone, leaving him to drown helplessly as he flails about. Shikimi initially doesn't even react to being dropped down the well... until she notices that she's surrounded by a swarm of insects, that is. Once they start crawling all over her and entering her orifices, she breaks down screaming and begging for mercy. |

The first poor wretch queued up for execution is Aaron Aardvark, who'd changed his name to be first in the vid-phone book. When Aaron protests that he doesn't want to die, he gets slapped for such truculence and gets hauled away sobbing. | |

Doctor Who: In "Genesis of the Daleks", when Davros is confronted and about to be executed by his own creations, the titular Daleks, he starts breaking down and shouts about how, as their creator, they should be taking orders from him. The Daleks ignore his angry pleas. As a last act of desperation, Davros tries to use the cut-off switch he installed in his chair to shut down their production line and they promptly exterminate him. It would later turn out that he was put into stasis by his life support mechanism rather than killed, but at that moment it appeared he was going to die. Discussed in "The Talons of Weng-Chiang". While they are being held captive by the followers of Weng-Chiang (AKA Magnus Greel) Jago tells Litefoot that he's "not all that brave when it comes to it", meaning being confronted with the prospect of one's own death. Litefoot says he doesn't suppose anyone is particularly brave under those circumstances, to which Jago says he thought he should tell him anyway in case he "lets the side down" by losing control of his emotions when the time comes for them to be killed. Litefoot assures him that he won't, though it never comes to that. In "Resurrection of the Daleks", Davros appears to be killed off again by a virus that the Movellans created to destroy Daleks, owed to the fact that he, as a Kaled, shares much of his genetic code with his creations. As soon as he realizes what's going on, he freaks out and angrily shouts that it shouldn't be happening to him, as he isn't a Dalek. Once again, he gets better. In "The End of Time", the Doctor is initially unwilling to save Wilf at the cost of his own life, protesting that it's not fair and he could do so much more. Though he eventually does so, the Tenth Doctor's last act before regenerating (which he regards as a kind of death) is to whimper "I don't want to go." In "The Big Bang", when the stone Dalek confronts River Song and realizes who she is, it immediately starts begging for mercy, understanding that, since she's much more ruthless than any of the Doctor's other allies, it's far beyond screwed. |

The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers: This shows up a lot, as the miniseries is a deconstruction of the portrayal of heroic portrayals of warfare. The Decepticon Borehole pleads for his life and attempts to flee before being torn apart by Kickoff. Pyro spends the entire series searching for the perfect, glorious death but when he actually tries to make a Last Stand he winds up whimpering in fear as he's overwhelmed by a horde of angry Decepticons. Skyfall is Driven to Suicide when he finds out that all the crimes he's ever committed have been broadcast to all of the Autobots. And then realizes that the method he used to kill himself is neither fast nor painless. | |

In Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, it is the certified behavior of most demons in the series with zero sympathetic traits as they are about to die, some of the most vicious demons did have a final moment of clarity where they retract to a more fragile or self-reflecting state, earning a moment of pity from Tanjiro Kamado who does offer his final sympathy as the dying demon can no longer hurt anyone else as they pass on; those who don't act that way, however, die cursing everything in their vicinity and aren't given a shred of pity, notorious examples include: the Big Brother Spider Demon. Enmu, the Lower Rank 1. Gyokko, the Upper Rank 5. The biggest of all, of course, is Muzan Kibutsuji himself, the leader and progenitor of all demons dies by the end of the series throwing what can only be described as a child tantrum, begging Tanjiro not to leave him alone, the absolute monster who ruined countless lives was reduced to such a state. | |

Freaking out, Kent steals a jeep to drive away but is stopped by a contemptuous Giant and held at gunpoint by the entire army. | |

Squid Game: As a Deadly Game, many of the titular contest's participants face immense despair in their final moments as they're at the mercy of the game's guards, sobbing, begging, or otherwise showing a complete loss of hope. One of the most poignant examples comes from the death of Jang Deok-su in "VIPS". After spending the whole game killing, stealing, and being a complete piece of shit to get ahead, Deok-su is put in a position at the fifth game that all but guarantees certain death for him, and decides to hold up everyone else so that they can die before him. One of his victims, Han Mi-nyeo, decides to pull a Heroic Sacrifice by falling with him to their deaths, giving everyone else a chance to live. Deok-su breaks down into pathetic begging and screaming as Mi-nyeo prepares to drag him off the bridge. |

The last twist of the knife regarding Akemi's death in Saikano (more so in the anime than the manga) is that Shuji did his utmost to let her Go Out with a Smile by holding her in his arms in response to her Dying Declaration of Love, only for her to be overcome by the fear of her imminent death and break down hysterically crying and sobbing about not wanting to die, before suddenly violently retching up blood and going limp. It drives home that there's nothing pretty or peaceful about death in this series. | |

The Mountain and the Wolf: Most of the Wolf's victims do not go gently at all, especially as he's just delivered a brutal Curb-Stomp Battle (the Mountain (twice) and Littlefinger) or is torturing them to death (Ramsay and Euron). The few exceptions actually earn his respect and a swift death (commending one Lannister soldier for spitting on him, telling him he's a better warrior than the Mountain, and notably not taking his skull as a trophy after decapitating him). | |

Breaking Bad: Invoked at several points when you have characters who completely crumble under pressure when faced with death. Walt and Jesse's final confrontation with Tuco kicks off when Tuco holds Jesse to the ground at gunpoint and the latter begins crying and panicking as he's seconds away from being shot to death. Though with some quick thinking, Jesse is able to knock away Tuco with a rock to the head and regain his footing, ultimately subverting his own death. In his debut episode "Better Call Saul", Saul Goodman is kidnapped by a disguised Walt and Jesse and brought to an empty hole in the desert where it appears he'll be tossed in if he doesn't comply. This is one of the few times where Saul shows pure fear and despair, begging for his life as he thinks he's about to get disposed of. Better Call Saul added a Blindfolded Trip, as he begs and pleads to kill or torture him anywhere but the desert. Subverted in the season 3 finale when Gus orders his hitmen to kill Walter and dispose of his corpse at the superlab. Mike and Victor think this is a straight example as Walter completely loses his cool at the prospect of his own death, begging to be spared and offering them Jesse, who is also on their hit list. It's only when Walter calls Jesse that it turns out to be a ploy to eliminate their replacement cook. Once the ploy is initiated, Walt drops the act and starts acting self-assured and confident again. |

Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors: Within the first twenty or so minutes of the game, the Ninth Man dies after locking himself behind a door from the rest of the main group. His final moments are spent in utter panic, confusion, and terror as he's about to be exploded by a bomb in his stomach, as a demonstration to the rest of the cast of what awaits them if they disobey the rules of the Nonary Game. Of course, given that he was just holding a terrified girl at knifepoint a minute ago, and acted like a complete Jerkass before then, you don't really feel too bad for him. You'll feel even less bad once you learn just how evil he actually was about 20 hours later. | |

The Sopranos: Happens frequently on the show when they're about to be whacked and know it's coming, which helps make the murderers (frequently one of the protagonists, look less sympathetic and more cruel). When Mikey is cornered by Chris and Paulie in the woods, he starts crying and begs for mercy, pinning his murder of Brendan on Junior in a futile attempt to bargain for his life. Even as he's riddled with bullets, he's screaming and struggling for life. When Matthew is dragged out to be executed by Big Pussy and Tony, he pleads for his life, pinning his attempted murder of Chris on Sean and wetting himself. Tony makes him think his pleading is working, only to tell him it didn't, at which point Matthew is reducing to crying and screaming for his "mommy". Adriana, who has been revealed to be a rat, spends her last moments before being executed in the middle of the Pine Warrens dragging herself away from her executioner and repeatedly moaning out a pitiful "no!". When Lorraine is murdered by Phil's hitmen for refusing to kick up to him, her last act is futilely trying to crawl away while crying and begging. Vito is caught by Phil and his underlings, and then is brutally beaten to death for being gay. Although he has duct tape wrapped over his mouth, his face is an expression of absolute terror and he's shaking his head frantically trying to change Phil's mind, to no avail. |

This is wildly out of character for Dumbledore, who had long lectured about there being no need to fear death.
