Someone's been gassed or attacked in a small, enclosed space. The attack may be a poison dart, or they've been beaten, shot, stabbed, etc. If it's gas, the gas is usually white, but it can sometimes be blue or yellow or bile-green. It's rapidly filling the area while the victim struggles to breathe and get out. There's a window, or a door with a window, or a door made of glass. If they can just get to the other side, they'll be safe. But the attack has injured them, or the gas is affecting them, causing them to get weaker and lose consciousness. While their initial panic-filled moments may be spent yelling for help and beating on the glass, it doesn't break. They get weaker and weaker, and sloooowly they collapse. The final scene is their hand slowly dragging down the window towards the floor. If they've been the victim of a violent attack, expect their hand to leave a bloody smear running down the window. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sub-Trope of both Deadly Gas and Knockout Gas. Bloody Handprint and Wall Slump may also come into play. Sister trope to Dead-Hand Shot. Compare Glass Smack and Slide, which is a comedic trope played for laughs. Examples: |

Titanic: A non-lethal version; the camera shows a car in the cargo hold with the windows fogged up. A hand slaps against the glass and slides down. No poison gas; just Jack and Rose engaging in some Auto Erotica. | |

When They Cry combines this with Bloody Handprint in the first arc, when we see Keiichi's bloodstained hand slide down the interior of the phone booth where he's calling Ooishi from. | |

Inverted in Resident Evil, where a hand slamming against the glass is proof that something very bad is about to happen, as the dead scientists in the sealed room aren't so dead, after all. There's also a scene where multiple people are trapped in a room filling with gas. Practically all of them are beating against the glass and then having their hands slide down as the slowly succumb. | |

Played with in King Kong (1976). Kong is captured when a pit is dug in front of the door to the giant wall. The pit is filled with gas and camouflaged with branches. Kong breaks through the gate and falls into the pit, succumbing to the gas. His final scene is his hand rising slowly out of the gas pit, only to sink back down as the gas overcomes him. | |

Monsters vs. Aliens: When Gallaxhar traps the giant Susan in an extraction chamber to extract the Quantonium out of Susan, she tries striking the glass to break free, but is too weakened to do so. With the Quantonium surrounding her, all that's visible of her last attempt at the glass is her outstretched hand before she slowly collapses. | |

Monk: In "Mr. Monk Takes a Vacation", Sharona gives her son Benjy a quarter to put in the telescope thing that some tourist spots have so he'll give her some peace to sunbathe. After a bit of looking at random things, Benjy focuses it on a window at the hotel where they're staying and sees a struggle, ending with a body sliding down the glass, leaving a bloody hand streak. | |
