An Affably Evil villain (or a Punch-Clock Villain, or even a Well-Intentioned Extremist that hasn't gone Ax-Crazy) may very well at some point offer The Hero the opportunity to run away or not interfere in the villain's plans. Because he/she may very well not actually wish to harm the hero, they simply want to complete the robbery/rule the world/raise the undead, what have you. A Magnificent Bastard or Smug Snake might do this to highlight just how assured their victory is. Thus, this can be a type of Evil Gloating. Alternatively, a practical-minded villain may simply prefer to avoid the risk and trouble of a fight if possible. Expect some sort of bribe: usually a cut of the stolen goods, a sip of the forbidden elixir if it's a fantasy or sci-fi story, or a Shiny New Australia. In the majority of cases, The Hero will refuse to quit their crusade against evil, some might even be insulted by the villain's audacity and self-assuredness. Thus, this can also be a type of "The Reason You Suck" Speech. A number of things may happen after getting a Last Chance. If the villain's cockiness is rightfully assured, chances are the good guys are in for a Curb-Stomp Battle. Otherwise, the good guys may respond with a Screw Your Ultimatum!. The opposite use is when someone is Bullying a Dragon, or bullying someone who will let it go, but has less forgiving friends. Then there's a reasonable warning along the lines of "Leave it. Just walk away now." If that's not taken, there's trouble. A slightly more generous (or desperate) villain will up the ante to We Can Rule Together instead. Compare Line in the Sand, where the hero gives their allies a chance to quit before the big showdown, and "Leave Your Quest" Test, which isn't necessarily offered by the villain. As indicated by some of the examples, the trope is not necessarily limited to villains. A hero might offer a villain (or another hero with whom he is fighting for some reason) a chance to back down if the hero prefers to avoid unnecessary violence or simply wants the problem resolved as quickly as possible. Compare Point of No Return and You Can Turn Back. May involve somebody asking Are You Sure You Want to Do That?, saying that you are Years Too Early for this fight, or warning Don't Make Me Destroy You. Sometimes One Free Hit is a form of this, since it gives someone a chance to get in one blow and then call things settled and walk away instead of starting a full scale fight. Examples |

In the penultimate mission of Halo Wars 2, Atriox gives Cutter an ultimatum, saying he will let the Spirit of Fire live and all humans leave in safety if they leave the Halo and the Ark to him. Cutter shoots back that the Ark now belongs to the Spirit of Fire, and that Atriox can piss off. Isabel then reports that Atriox has never been so mad. | |

Asura's Wrath: At the end of the DLC chapters, Asura is offered one last chance by Chakravartin to accept his offer to become Gaea's new god after ascending to levels of power none before him had and thus allow Chakravartin to leave Gaea and spread his "guidance" to other worlds. Just to drive it home, he even returns Mithra, the main reason Asura began this quest, to him and lets them hug. All he asks in return is for Asura to accept the offer and take his hand. Despite everything Chakravartin has done to Gaea and the suffering its people have endured, Asura does look sorely tempted at least for a moment. He then "extends his arm" right into Chakravartin's face before angrily refusing and affirming his intent to make the deity pay for all he's done. | |

The Order of the Stick: Xykon offers a twist on this — it's not that he doesn't want to hurt Roy, but that he doesn't feel Roy's worth his time and effort. He actually suggests that Roy try again when he grows powerful enough to present a real challenge. When Roy refuses, Xykon very quickly decides to show him just how outclassed he is. The fiends that are offering Vaarsuvius a Deal with the Devil point out that, instead of taking their offer, V could kill themself, have Qarr bring their head to the Azure City fleet, get resurrected, and Send to their master, who would defeat the ancient black dragon before she could steal V's children's souls. The purpose of pointing this out is twofold: first, to make sure V knows that they only accepted the deal out of Pride, as this alternative would require them to admit that they couldn't solve the problem on their own. And second, to remove their ability to claim I Did What I Had to Do, as they were about to do before the fiends spoke up. |

The ants certainly wouldn't try to stop the humans if they chose to save themselves, but none of them do. | |

In 300, Xerxes' initial offer to Sparta is to not interfere and be left alone as a vassal state. He later goes to We Can Rule Together by promising to make Leonidas a king. Xerxes really did offer Leonidas the job of ruling all of Greece on his behalf. But unlike in the movie, the offer wasn't made in person. |

In Planescape: Torment, the Big Bad gives this offer to your party members — but not to The Nameless One himself — when you finally reach its lair. There are no takers. It leaves no survivors. The backstory implies it did the same thing to The Practical Incarnation and his party. Of the people left over from that party at least two are alive (though in Morte's case that's figurative), which implies that some of them took it. |

3:10 to Yuma (2007). Dan Evans is part of a posse transporting the dangerous outlaw Ben Wade to a prison train. Evans is motivate partly by wanting to prove his honor, and partly because his family needs the $200 reward. When they're alone together, Wade offers Evans $400 to give up and let him go. Then Wade increases the offer to $1000, explaining that this is Evans' last chance to walk away from the situation. Dan just laughs at the utter impracticality of accepting that much cash. Specifically, if he tried to actually spend any of it, everyone would know where he got the money from. | |

A notable case of good guy giving this to the good guys: in the movie Glory, Col. Shaw announces to the soldiers that the Confederate Army has declared it will execute any armed Black soldier and any white officer commanding them. Shaw states that in light of this information, anyone who wishes so will receive a full discharge from the Army. Nobody accepts, and like most things in the movie this actually happened. | |

Fallen London: While pursuing the Light Fingers ambition, your main enemy for a certain part of the storyline, Poor Edward, will make you this offer: Have a drink of Laser-Guided Amnesia tea, and forget what you were looking for, and let everything stay where it is, or keep prowling, and get Buried Alive for your trouble (mentioning he'd kill you if if weren't for the fact Death is Cheap in the Neath). It's up to the player to decide, but if you want to continue this particular ambition you're going to have to risk it. Even getting trapped in a coffin is a simple, if nightmarish inconvenience. | |

A non-lethal, but still serious, variant from Calvin & Hobbes: The Series - Calvin offers Socrates a chance to apologize after a scuffle goes wrong. He refuses, as "he doesn't apologize." | |

Babylon 5: In a brilliant scene in one episode, Minbari warrior Neroon offers Ranger Marcus Cole the chance to back off and let him continue on his mission to assassinate Delenn. Marcus responds with a You Shall Not Pass! (which is, after all, what the Rangers are all about). In 4x18, Intersections In Real Time, the Interrogator asks the question "Do you understand that this is your last chance?" in a desperate tone both to another prisoner and later to Sheridan before sending them away presumably to their deaths. However, at least in Sheridan's case, he's simply sent to another room with a different interrogator, implying that the previous guy's tone wasn't motivated by concern for Sheridan's life. |

WWE Video Games: The 2006 edition features a Myth Arc rivalry between the Player Character and WWE Champion Triple H. After the rivals are forced to team up against interlopers, HHH offers the PC "a free pass" to get out of Hunter's life for good. Reject it, and your feud comes to a head; accept it, and you will have to face the wrath of Shelton Benjamin, the only man who had your back against HHH. | |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: The famous There are FOUR lights!!!! scene from the episode "Chain Of Command, Part 2", where Cardassian Torture Technician Gul Madred made Picard believe that Starfleet had given up on him and offered him a life in a Luxury Prison Suite if he gave in to Madred's 2 + Torture = 5 demands; the alternative was death. Made all the more badass during Picard's debriefing afterwards when he admits that there were times during his interrogation and torture when he really did think he could see five lights, but he wouldn't give his interrogator the satisfaction of admitting it. The episode "The Defector" features the Enterprise surrounded by Romulan warships. The smug Romulan commander Tomalok orders Picard to surrender and offers him this trope. It turns out that Picard doesn't need to quit because Tomalok is surrounded by cloaked Klingon warships. |
