A character rushes out of the room and a closeup shot reveals they've left their firearm behind, or some other crucial item like a mobile phone or the Amulet of Dependency. Naturally they're going to need that item for the very situation they're about to head into. Bonus points for an Oh, Crap!. They may have intentionally left the item behind, not thinking they'd need it, or it may have slipped out of a bag. Not related to Leave Behind a Pistol but may involve Where's My Gun? See also We Have Forgotten the Phlebotinum. Has nothing to do with abandoning the person who just saved one's life. |

Inverted in Lockout: Hock, even when prison regulations insist that he leaves all of his weapons behind, stupidly decides to bring along an ankle-holstered pistol to Hydell's interrogation (and lies about it when asked if he gave all of his guns). This act gives Hydell access to the weaponry needed to stage a mass prison break-out, effectively dooming everybody inside. | |

Shadowrun on the Sega Genesis has a double dose of this. The first quest in the game is to scrape together 250 nuyen so you can get your brother Michael's stuff out of storage - it may hold some clues as to why Michael was killed in a firefight. Once you get his stuff, you not only find a credstick for 500 nuyen, but also a Doc Wagon wrist band, which summons immediate medical aid once the user's vitals drop to dangerous levels (like during a firefight). | |

Rick and Morty: In the episode "Vindicators 3: Return of World Ender", Rick, Morty, and a team of superheroes are stuck in a high-tech death trap (that wasn't made by World Ender; the previous night, Rick got drunk, killed World Ender, and converted his lair into a death trap because he resents the superheroes). After discovering this, Rick immediately tries to teleport away, but apparently, he left his portal gun in the bathroom while vomiting in the sink. Rick is therefore trapped with the people he drunkenly tried to kill, and I Hate Past Me ensues. | |

In the Discworld of A.A. Pessimal, the Pegasus Service employs witches who can commute around the world with the aid of the Feegle "craw-step" and winged horses, viewed as an upgrade on broomsticks. One such is Rebecka Smith-Rhodes, who works part-time for the Service whilst living in Rimwards Howondaland. While training as a Witch in Lancre, her Rodinian sponsoring Witch gave her a winter-wear outfit suitable for surviving outdoor work in a harsh winter. When Bekki moved to the Discworld's Africa, she reasoned she did not need to pack heavy-duty winter clothing and left this at her family home in Ankh-Morpork.. However, her Pegasus status obliges her to work part-time for the Service. Therefore, in January, she flies from Howondaland to Ankh-Morpork. to be craw-stepped right into the middle of the worst blizzards and sub-zero temperatures for twenty years. Her sponsoring Witch, who rescued her, is not pleased, and stands over her with folded arms while she recovers the winter survival clothing from home. | |

While on the way to fire off the flares needed to destroy the title giant spider in The Giant Spider Invasion, Dr. Vance forgets the flares and needs to run back to the car and get them. Mike and the Bots immediately call out how dumb this was since it doesn't add any real tension and only pads out an extra 10 seconds or so of running time. | |

Subverted in The Silence of the Lambs. When Clarice Starling goes to see Dr. Lecter in Tennessee, she has to turn over her spare reloader for her revolver. When she's discovered and rushed out, she leaves her reloader behind. If you noticed this, then during her final confrontation with Buffalo Bill, you were expecting her to run low (or out) of bullets, look for her reloader and not find it, and have to defeat Buffalo Bill with just One Bullet Left or an empty gun. In fact, she finishes off Buffalo Bill with several shots and then reloads. | |

Fraggle Rock: In one episode, Red is getting ready to take part in a big race called the All-Day Cross-Cave Beanbarrow Race Finals—but Clinging Creepers, which wrap around their victims to ensnare them, have been seen by Table Rock Cavern. They can only be repelled by the smell of fresh flowers, so the Bouquet Brigades string flowers around and make floral headbands for everyone. During the race, Red makes a wrong turn and ends up at Table Rock Cavern. Too late, she realizes her headband is gone (it had been snagged by a spring vine) and that the Clinging Creepers are slithering toward her. | |

Slightly different example in A Song of Ice and Fire. While a group of people are escaping from Ramsay Bolton, with a plan that requires them to climb down the castle wall with a rope, they get discovered, and one of them decides to pull a Heroic Sacrifice You Shall Not Pass! on the guards chasing them to let the others escape. They go ahead and reach the top of the wall... only to realize that the person who stayed behind had the rope. Despite one of them bursting into hysterical laughter at the absurdity of it, this is very much Played for Drama. | |

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Played with in Mostly Harmless. Tricia Macmillian laments her boring life because a few years back she had the opportunity to go with a guy who was from another planet, but right after she went back for her bag, Zaphod left in his spaceship. She then used the mantra "Never go back for your bag." At the present time, she's running late for an interview as a prestigious anchor for a news program, and when she realizes she left her bag upstairs, doesn't bother to get it, citing her mantra. Later, she returns to her hotel room feeling horrible, having completely blown the interview, and goes straight for her bag, which has her contact lenses inside (without which made it impossible for her to read the teleprompter). | |

Gantz: Happens all the time to new Gantz fighters; Gantz provides basic pistols and a strength- and resilience-enhancing cybersuit to all new fighters, but doesn't explain why they're necessary, leading many to leave them behind in the room before being teleported to their first mission unless a veteran manages to convince them to do otherwise. Others take a gun, whose function is largely self-explanatory, and leave behind their suit, which is much more useful despite not looking like much. In the first arc, only Nishi (a veteran who knows what to expect) and Kurono (who observes Nishi doing so) wear their suits, causing them to fare much better than the rest. In the second arc, Kurono, not knowing that Gantz teleports its victims away from their daily lives to begin a new mission with very little warning, leaves his suit behind in his closet. Nishi, having more experience, wears his under his clothes at all times. |

As Mia prepares to head to Centopia in episode 21 of season 1 of Mia and Me, the camera calls attention to the fact that Mia's friendship ring has been left inside one of the gloves she was using while helping out with gardening. Naturally, this ends up causing trouble when Mia gets separated from her friends due to strong winds, since not only does she not have the ring with her, but because she doesn't have it, Yuko and Mo can't use their own rings to find her either. | |

Discussed in How NOT to Write a Novel as a possible way to handle any situation where a reader might think, "Why doesn't the protagonist just whip out their cell phone and solve the problem with one call?" For example, having a character not have their phone on them because they were woken by a fire alarm and ran out of the house is completely believable. | |

A Cure for Wellness. Lockhart takes a shovel with him while Exploring the Evil Lair but leaves it behind when running to hide because the caretaker is coming down the stairs. The caretaker sees the shovel and tries to kill Lockhart with it; later it's a Chekhov's Gun when the Mad Scientist chases Lockhart down there and his daughter uses the shovel to kill him. | |

In the second season of Breaking Bad, when Jesse and Walt are being targeted by the murderous drug lord Tuco, Walt takes Jesse's gun and instructs Jesse to leave town after a brief argument. Jesse, defenseless, is held at gunpoint by Tuco and forced to lure Walt outside his house. Walt leaves the gun behind, something that causes Jesse no end of consternation when he finds out. | |
