Taken During the Ending is just when a story is about to end, a character or an object is taken away at the last minute. The reason for them to be taken could be because for a character, maybe they're being abducted for nefarious purposes or they're being rescued at the last minute, and for an object, it's because someone wants to use it later on or to prevent it from being used again. The ending can be seen as either good, bad, or neutral based on what's going on, and if there are plans to expand on what happens afterwards, it will typically end on a Cliffhanger, set up a Sequel Hook, or be explored later down the line. When a person gets taken away, the situation can be depicted as them either being abducted or rescued. If a character is being abducted in front of their friends, expect their friends to feel helpless as they watch their friend be taken away with nothing they can do to stop it. If they're being rescued, not only does it stop the ending from being a complete downer, but it ensures the audience that their story isn't over yet and it will continue later on. It could be against their will or they could welcome it if it means they can escape their predicament. A character getting arrested and being taken away by law enforcement at the end can also count, too. The object that's taken at the end may be a MacGuffin and when that object is gone, expect it to set up a Sequel Hook where the plot revolves around trying to get that object back or someone using the object for nefarious purposes again. When a character tries to get rid of a certain object, they carelessly throw it away (in the ocean, a deep hole, off a cliff, etc.) and just turn their back thinking no one will ever find it or mess with it again, until they're proven wrong later on. Or perhaps the object is accidentally left behind or dropped during an intense scene and the other character either forgot about it or they remember it too late. It's important that the object that's being taken is important to the story or at least to someone important. The object will either be a Chekhov's Gun and will come back later on in the next story, or the object will be taken away so no one will use it ever again. It's important that what happens to the character or object be left ambiguous during the ending because it's unknown what will happen next after it is taken, even if the outcome is implied. For example, if the story just ends with Bob being abducted by a monster, then this trope applies, but if it ends with Bob being abducted by a monster and then we see Bob get eaten, then this doesn't apply. Having the ending stop when the character or object is taken opens up an opportunity for what will happen later on, whether it happens on- or off-screen. When Bob is taken by the monster, it's implied that Bob will be eaten because that's what the monster has been doing during the story, but in the next story, we learn that Bob managed to escape the monster or someone rescued him. Basically, the ending must only show the character or object being taken, not what happens to them afterwards. And while the situation for the character and the object may be different from each other, the idea is still the same, they're being taken away for a purpose and what will happen to them may or may not be explored later on. The ending doesn't have to show them being physically taken, the actual taking could happen off-screen and then we see the outcome at the end. A character could ask if someone has seen this other character or object and then it cuts to them being in the possession of someone. The character/object being taken isn't exclusive to being taken away by another character, they could also be taken away by things that are out of their control, like a portal sucking them in, very strong weather to blow them away, or they accidentally stowaway on a moving vessel and it's too late for them to escape as examples since they are technically being taken away by something. If the person/object being taken at the end of the story doesn't appear ever again in the work/universe, like it's never brought up again or it's completely forgotten, it could be a type of Aborted Arc. Could overlap with Uncertain Doom if it's uncertain if a character will be killed. Sometimes it may result in a Here We Go Again! or Last-Second Joke Problem. Compare to or contrast with And the Adventure Continues, in which the story ends with the main characters voluntarily setting off for a new adventure. Related to But Now I Must Go. Can be a form of Happy Ending Override, a Sudden Downer Ending, or a Bolivian Army Ending. See also Your Princess Is in Another Castle! It's optional, but the example can also apply when the character or object will return or be mentioned in a later episode or sequel. As this is an Ending Trope, expect unmarked spoilers. |

CSI: NY: In "Sex, Lies and Silicone," while investigating the murder of a business consultant, the team finds a flash drive of hers which contains information that could derail the careers of quite a few high-profile executives and politicians. The very last scene of the episode, immediately after the case's box of material is placed in the evidence locker, shows two unidentified people's hands. One removes the flash drive and gives it to the other. Once the theft is discovered, the powerful people whose names are on the drive (including the Chief of Detectives) are all desperate for it to be found before they're exposed. A few episodes later, the property clerk is killed because he's the one who handed it over. Who ended up with it isn't revealed until the end of the season... when it gets stolen again. This time, it's never recovered. | |

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Played for Laughs. King Arthur and Sir Bedivere are arrested and taken away by modern-day police on suspicion of murder right in the middle of an epic battle to decide the fate of the Holy Grail, ending the film as an Anti-Climax. (An example of Real Life Writes the Plot, since the reason why Monty Python didn't go through with the whole fight is that they ran out of money and time before they could film the whole battle.) | |

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: The College of Winterhold questline centers around an object of unknown origin or purpose called the Eye of Magnus that is found by the Dragonborn and Tolfdir beneath a ruin, which is then taken back to the College for study. Shortly after discovery and throughout the quest, a member of an equally-unknown organization called the Psijic Order reaches out to the Dragonborn to warn them of the great deal of trouble the Eye represents. A Thalmor representative to the college named Ancano takes an interest in the Eye and seeks to understand and control it for the Thalmor to use, leading the College to try and defeat him despite him being amplified by the Eye's tremendous power, which the Dragonborn and Tolfdir are able to do but at the cost of the Archmage's and Mirabelle Ervine's lives. Following this, the Psijic Order arrive to take the Eye somewhere it can be safely contained, implied to be completely outside of the playable plane of reality. | |

After the monster burns their house to the ground and the family are able to escape, they're just happy that they're all together. At the end of the episode, later that night, an SUV limo drives up to the burned house and the limo window rolls down to reveal Santa Claus, who summons the monster back to him and drops a letter on the ground revealing it belonged to Timmy, who wished his family would get along again, and Santa granted his wish by sending the monster to terrorize the family into doing so. In Season 1 "Game Over", Kelly and his friends are pulled into a video game and must beat the final boss, the Game Master, to escape. After they beat the Game Master, Kelly ends up becoming the new Game Master and he's trapped in the video game while his friends are free to leave and he can only leave when someone else beats him. The episode ends with an unnamed boy playing the same video game, where a hand pulls him into the game when he accepts the Game Master's challenge. In Season 1 "Catching Cold", Marty tries to catch the Kreemy Kold ice cream truck so he can eat more of its ice cream and finally stops it using spike strip to pop its tires. After entering the ice cream truck to get the ice cream, he meets an adult man named Jimmy Jefferies, who was also obsessed with catching the truck when he was a kid and reveals he was trapped inside the truck for 30 years and has been waiting for someone to catch the truck so he can finally leave. After Jimmy leaves the truck, the truck traps Marty inside, reinflates its popped tires, and drives off with Marty trapped inside until the next kid tries to catch it again. |

Spider-Man: The Animated Series: During the two-parter "The Return of Hydro-Man", Peter Parker marries Mary Jane Watson, a clone of her, in fact, who dissolves at the end of the arc. Also during the end of the arc, Professor Miles Warren finds a piece of Spider-Man's uniform (possibly containing his genetic material). In-universe, the thread is not explored further in that reality, but it does get a follow-up during "Spider-Wars", as the backstory of the Spider-Carnage and Scarlet Spider, alternate versions of the "main" Spider-Man. | |

American Dad!: In Season 9's Naked to the Limit, One More Time just as it seems like Roger is about to go back to his home planet to protect his alien identity after Jeff finds out the truth, he shoves Jeff into the ship's tractor beam causing him to be abducted. It takes until the aptly-named Holy Shit, Jeff's Back! in season 12 for him to return to Earth (with extra complications arising from those escapades). In Season 12 "CIAPow", at the end of the episode, after Stan and his co-workers are thrown into a Thailand prison again for trying to steal the King of Thailand's inhaler again, Deputy Bullock, whose body is now cybernetic and has robotic spider legs, breaks into their prison cell to rescue them and lets them ride on his spider legs as they escape. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: In Season 1 "Imprisoned", after Team Avatar helps motivate the earthbenders to fight back against the Fire Nation and they all escape from the prison they're in, Katara realizes her necklace, that belonged to her mother, is gone. After the end of the episode, Zuko is seen at the prison and he finds Katara's necklace and holds on to it. Zuko would show Katara her necklace again in "The Waterbending Scroll" and she would finally get her necklace back in "Bato of the Water Tribe". | |

The Lord of the Rings: Each book uses this trope in its own way. At the end of The Fellowship of the Ring, as part of the climactic Breaking the Fellowship, Merry and Pippin are kidnapped by Saruman's Uruk-Hai. Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas spend the next book trying to find them. The Two Towers also ends this way, with Frodo being seemingly killed by Shelob and Sam realizing at the end of the book that he is actually alive and has been taken by Sauron's forces. Finally Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf are taken into the Gray Havens at the end of The Return of the King in a more peaceful variation of this trope. |

Portal originally ended with the player, and the Companion Cube, dumped in the middle of a field after making their escape. When the sequel was announced, the ending was changed to add an unseen Party Escort Bot, who thanks you for "assuming the party escort submission position" and drags you back into the facility in order to set up the events of Portal 2. | |

Once Upon a Time: Season 2 ends with Henry getting kidnapped by Greg and Tamara to Neverland (which, unlike in its source material, is said to be a nightmarish place run by a tyrant Pan). After a season of infighting among the adult characters, it's a big deal that they band together to save Henry by all going to Neverland after him. | |

Bolt: An Invoked In-Universe example. The producers of the Bolt TV show (which is a show about a superpowered dog who protects his owner Penny from the evil Dr. Calico) have one of the episodes end on a dramatic cliffhanger in order to boost ratings and appeal to a more mature audience. Each episode of the show up to that point saw Bolt and Penny successfully repelling capture attempts from Dr. Calico, but here Penny is taken prisoner. Unfortunately, the titular protagonist doesn't know he's only acting in a show, Bolt believing his master was truly taken prisoner. As a result, the dog escapes his trailer and runs away to “save” his master, putting the rescue-based follow up episode on indefinite hold. | |
