Hidden Supplies	comment	People like to be prepared. Some people like to be Crazy-Prepared. Some are Properly Paranoid. If your life is filled with hitmen, supervillains and other unwelcome guests you really don't want to be caught unprepared. You keep your favorite gun in a desk drawer in your home office, but you're not sure you can get to it in time if you are caught in the kitchen. So you keep another gun taped behind the fridge. And maybe just for kicks you keep another gun hidden under the garden gnome in your front yard. And it may not always be a gun. Duct tape is handy no matter the situation. Keep some in your car, office and work bench. Multiple Identity IDs are popular for spies and criminals. Some characters may have a vehicle loaded with weapons and supplies hidden in a warehouse in case they need to escape in a hurry. Compare Secret Compartment, Hammerspace, Pillow Pistol, Book Safe and Wall of Weapons and Unlikely Spare. See also Survivalist Stash and Emergency Stash.

Hidden Supplies / int_10b03dcf	comment	In Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman keeps an entire Batcave stocked with supplies on the island the asylum is on just in case. It even has a fully functional Batcomputer and a spare Batclaw. Batman: Arkham Knight shows that Batman has at least three backup facilities in Gotham proper - Oracle's base in the Clock Tower, an unseen equipment manufactory run by Lucius Fox in Wayne Tower, and a secondary Batcave complex in a run down movie studio.

Hidden Supplies / int_1133352a	comment	Terminator movies usually feature a large supply of weapons because Sarah, the mother of the future leader of La RÃ©sistance, is expecting both a nuclear war and the subsequent human rebellion against Skynet. The second movie has them buried in the desert and the third movie has them hidden in a mausoleum. Her own mausoleum. Ironically, in the TV series, it's shown that even Skynet has Terminators putting aside hidden supplies for After the End.

Vaughan assesses just how many different types of things are in this place (weapons, survival gear, medical equipment, money, you name it) and then realizes something even more important: the fact Jack's letting Vaughan see this place means Jack's got more than one of these secret supply bases. When Director Chase orders a search of Sydney's house as a result of Elena framing Nadia for her illegal activities, the agents assigned to the search are astonished by the sheer amount of weapons Sydney has stashed around the place.

Some comms hide their stores - Castrima buried theirs in an underground ruin. It is also expected that households and individuals will hide additional supplies under floors or elsewhere. The first thing Essun does when she leaves Tirimo to chase down Jija is to take out her go-bag ("runnysack") from its hiding place. We later learn that she also kept the rings identifying her as a high-ranked member of the Fulcrum concealed in the lining.

Hidden Supplies / int_7aaf9e41	comment	Batman: Being Crazy-Prepared, Batman does this too, though within the house, he's more inclined to have ordinary objects that just "happen" to be usable as weapons lying about. In an issue of Trinity, Bruce Wayne is attacked in the small woods he has on his estate, and is no more than 30 yards from a fake tree with a full set of Bat-gear inside. (The attackers were non-human monsters, so he wasn't worried about exposing his Secret Identity.) Batman is also known for having another set of Batman gear at the Wayne Enterprises building. Post-Knightfall he goes so far as to set up a dozen duplicate Batcaves all over Gotham, each stocked with everything from a backup database to spare vehicles. The actual locations vary as required by the plot, but it's usually accepted that one of them is somewhere under Arkham, which is a major plot point in Batman: Arkham Asylum. In Robin Tim has to go to an old stash of his civilian clothes after The Flash runs him back to Gotham to be with Stephanie while she was giving birth. He finds to his chagrin that he's grown a bit since he hid the handiest clothing stash away and it all fits uncomfortably tight. In Red Robin it's made clear that not only does Tim have multiple stashes of weapons, clothes and medical supplies hidden around Gotham he's also got at least two stripped down to basics hidden bases with garage space for his bike, tricked out computers and room for him to sleep.

He's hidden knives, ninja stars, and swords under his desk, inside the standard potted plants, in the toilet, under the couch in the office, and even inside a file in the filing cabinet, labeled under "A. Knife". Of course, none of this has been used much due to the fact that there aren't many threats in a paper supply company, but one time he did use pepper spray to stop an attacker.

Hidden Supplies / int_8ba43df	comment	The current page image is of John Wick and his freshly-excavated hitman supplies. When he retired, he put it all in a chest and buried it in concrete under the rug in his basement. The scene where Viggo explains Wick's backstory is intercut with the footage of Wick taking a sledgehammer and smashing the concrete. One of the first things Wick does in the sequel after getting his car back is to return all the items to the chest, lower it back underground, and pour fresh concrete. Soon afterwards, however, his house is burned down. He's pulled back into action, so he has to access a secondary stash in a safety deposit box back in the city. Parabellum shows that Wick has even more supplies hidden in a book in the New York Public Library, which he uses to pull various favors. The book itself makes a nice improvised weapon, too.

Hidden Supplies / int_8df5521b	comment	Superman: The Silver Age Lex Luthor used to be Crazy-Prepared in this way for escaping prison (but only for that, not for defeating Superman). At the very least, he would have a stash of equipment hidden (say, in a fake tree) outside every prison he might get sent to (he was also portrayed as something of an escape artist, so getting outside the prison walls usually wasn't a problem). In some cases, he would however go to the length of actually placing henchmen (or possibly hench androids) in the prison general population, just to ensure that he would have access to the few components needed for his getaway gadget (teleporter, disintegration beam, etc.) that he couldn't pilfer from an ordinary alarm clock or radio, should he ever happen to be sent to that particular prison.

On reaching the United States he uses a storage unit which also has multiple license plates and other items he can use to carry out his contract killings. He narrates that he owns six storage units across the United States, and that he likes to imagine—when the automatic funding eventually dries up—an episode of Storage Wars where they cut the lock on one of his units and their reactions when they discover it loaded with weapons, ammo and other equipment.

They even keep guns in the oh-so-handy in-bed compartments on one of the group's Dodge trucks. In the second season, it is revealed that truly sensitive items are kept in a sealed safe buried under the floor of the house. The family also keeps a small warehouse that houses their entire personal armory. Ironically even Skynet is shown doing this trope, with Terminators collecting useful materials and stashing them far from the city so they can be retrieved after the war breaks out.

Frank was fighting the hitman known as "The Russian" and Frank would grab certain weapons he had hidden around his apartment, but would systematically be either shrugged off or totally neutralized by the hitman. The look on Frank's face when the Russian smashes his revolver with a dumbbell is priceless.

Hidden Supplies / int_f4e799ee	comment	Burn Notice: In one episode Michael let a supposed bureaucrat into his apartment only to find out the guy was a hitman. Michael's narration explained that you can't be absolutely sure of every variable, but he wanted to have the meeting in his apartment because he had home field advantage. Michael reached under the sink and pulled out a gun he had taped there. In another episode, he heard someone approaching his front door (this was a time when a rival spy was out to kill him) and Michael reached into the fridge and quickly pulled out a gun. Voice-overs in several episodes discuss the merits of different ways to hide supplies; from burying them in walls and under floors, making them hard to find but also hard to access, to hiding things in fake electrical utility boxes that are easy to access but obvious when you access them. And as the page quote tells, Michael and friends have several storage units with guns and explosives hidden all around Miami (sadly no fridge for yogurt or beer). Detective Paxson once almost discovered one of these units, but upon getting the search warrant she found the unit empty, with a hole cut out of the back and out of view of her survellaince team...
