Villain: Exit, Stage Left	comment	Once their plot is foiled the villain (less often, a hero) will always get away in the most undignified and cowardly fashion imaginable. If they didn't, who would the hero fight next episode? This is probably why the heroes either don't even bother chasing them, or else send Red Shirts after them with predictable results, or even help them get away. Other times, they're just being sporting. No blockades, no manhunts, not even pursued by a bear. After all, it's at the end of the episode. Regardless of the means, the escaped Smug Snake will gloat about how it "all went according to plan", maybe set off the Self-Destruct Mechanism in the Collapsing Lair, and return "triumphantly" next episode. Less often, you'll see them lick their figurative and literal wounds at having not only been beat but forced to show the better part of valour and try to come up with a new Plot Of The Week that will work, throwing in a "Next Time, Tropeworthy!" for good measure. Most villains who exit stage left also favor the Friend-or-Idol Decision and Sadistic Choice as backups, setting off small bombs or traps on loved ones to force the hero to choose between their capture or their friends' lives. This also frequently happens with Genre Blind villains who leave the hero in an easily defeated Death Trap room rather than stay and make sure the job gets done correctly, i.e. Just Shoot Him. May be accompanied by a Hiss Before Fleeing, an Angry Fist-Shake or shouting "We Will Meet Again". See also Screw This, I'm Outta Here for a villain flees out of cowardice rather then to prepare a new plot. Compare So Long, Suckers!, Karma Houdini and Know When to Fold 'Em. Contrast with Last Villain Stand where the villain decides to stick around and fight to the end. There may be unmarked spoilers ahead!

With Vilmain dead, his subordinate, Jean Feyrac, leads their men in an orderly retreat back to La Roque, Malevil's defenders watch them depart from the castle ramparts. Subverted when they mount their horses and ride along a hidden trail to cut off the survivors and set up an ambush. Double subverted when it's realized that Feyrac is alone, riding on a bicycle ahead of the soldiers, and Emmanuel must risk letting the leader go to avoid alerting the bulk of the army to the trap. Finally subverted again they remember Colin's bow allows for a silent kill and their enemies walk blindly into the ambush a few minutes later.

In Mega Man 7, Mega Man was about to give Wily a face full of plasma until Bass rescued Wily. Shadow Man in Rockman 4 Minus âˆž does this every time you beat him until Cossack Castle Stage 1. He attempts it again in the final stage if you manage to encounter and defeat him as an Optional Boss. This time, though, his smoke bomb malfunctions and he explodes like any other Robot Master. In Mega Man Powered Up, Dr. Wily escapes if you beat him on Easy. Beating the game on harder difficulties causes Wily to go to his usual routine of begging Mega Man to leave him alone, claiming to have learned his lesson. Subverted in the comic during the first game adaption. It looks like Wily is about to get away, but Mega Man proves too quick. Rockman CX has Ultraman (yes, really) use a One-Hit Kill attack if the player takes too long to defeat him. If it's dodged by use of the Floor item, he just walks away, forcing you to fall into the Bottomless Pit and try again.

Joe will often round up lower echelon Cobra troopers to presumably face prison, but the upper echelon villains such as Cobra Commander, Destro, and Zartan will always escape. Sometimes, this is due to most of them being slippery masters of disguise, but on a couple of occasions, the Joes will literally watch them run or drive away, which is particularly odd when you consider that the Joes usually still have plenty of working vehicles at the end of a mission. Job security, maybe? And it's not like Cobra Commander usually makes much attempt to conceal his intention to run away, what with his habit of loudly shouting "COOOOOOBRA! RETREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT!" in full earshot of the Joes.

What makes it particularly egregious was that this was an anvilicious episode about vigilantism. Right after throwing the villain away, Bravestar turns to the strawman vigilante (who has been hunting Villain all episode) and says something like "See, justice prevails!". The really, really sad part is the vigilante agrees and promises to mend his wicked ways.

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_2d311a08	comment	Shredder did this every week on the '80s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. No matter where he happened to be at the time, as soon as his plan went sour a great big drill-car thing (referred to as a Transport Module) would burrow up from the ground, he'd hop in and head back underground to the Technodrome, and at no point did it occur to the turtles to simply go down the hole after him. Mind you, the holes did have a tendency to fill up with lava and cool into rock pretty quickly seeing as the Big Bad's HQ was at the center of the Earth. In fact, the turtles once attempted to pursue Shred-Head's escape through the driller in one episode... and were quickly rewarded by literally getting the Hot Foot within moments. In seasons where the Technodrome was in Dimension X, Shredder and company would escape via a portable dimensional portal instead. Lampshaded in one episode where a guest character shouts "Shredder is getting away!" and Raphael wearily responds "Yeah, you get used to that."

In context, the Red Skull was confronted by Magneto, a Holocaust survivor, and attempts to flee, snapping a Nazi salute as he does to piss Magneto off. However, the Skull is relying on a hidden train (on metal tracks) and army of robot guards (made of metal) to provide cover as he flees from the Master of Magnetism. Magneto easily smashes through the Skull's defenses and traps him.

Most notably when Cornelius allows the obviously insane and world-destruction-seeking Big Bad King Valentine to stumble away after besting him, TWICE. Not only that, Belial manages to survive FOUR boss fights before finally being killed, and that was only because he asked to be killed. And if that weren't enough, four characters didn't the foresight to kill Leviathan before he grows to full power, though Gwendolyn has the defense of Oswald's safety being more important to her at the time. Remarkably this IS subverted at one point though when Oswald decides to kill Skuldi rather than let him live. A good thing too, because the latter was about to attack him again. This is also partially subverted at another point when Cornelius seems to really consider killing Ingway before the latter asks him if he could deal with the guilt of killing his lover's brother.

On rare occasions, he exits in grand fashion. This scene isn't really an example because it's Skeletor's Good Mirror Twin created by a mirror that made opposite duplicates of whoever looked into them, getting back inside the Mirror that created him and destroying it to make sure it's not used again. It's still an awesome exit, though. In a Geico commercial, Skeletor distracts He-Man, She-Ra, and Man-At-Arms with the product plug long enough to make a clean getaway.

Cohen's band of heroes would always let Dark Lord Harry Dread escape, and he would always hire stupid minions and make easily-escaped dungeons. They all refer to it as The Code; either you live by the code, or you don't. If you're a villain this means being a Card-Carrying Villain, and if you're a hero you benefit from Plot Armour. If you don't live by The Code, then that means that those ineffectual villains can stop playing around, or that the heroes don't have to let the villain escape. It's not just tradition, it's a way of life. Which means either you live by the code or, you know. Not. Harry's the last of the Dark Lords because modern non-code heroes find and seal the escape routes before attacking. The Old Count from Carpe Jugulum benefits from a variant of this: he always makes sure that his castle is full of easily-improvised anti-vampire weapons, and the villagers who defeat him never actually scatter the ashes so he'll stay dead-dead.

Every episode Naraku was directly involved in ended with him either running away after getting his ass handed to him or him doing something that made it impossible for him to be directly attacked. And every single incarnation he created would inevitably run like hell when things got sticky. Honestly, how many times can the Big Bad get savaged and still claim to be all powerful? Thankfully inverted with the Band of Seven. Except for maybe once or twice, they all fight to the death. Inuyasha even tells the leader that he can leave, but he refuses because he wants to avenge his friends. Is it any wonder why a group of specters who got curb-stomped in only a handful of battles are seen as more badass than the Big Bad of the entire story?

Afterward, Professor Nambu orders the team to actually pursue Katze for once, and the villain is shocked (Shocked!) to see the team do so. But he must have thought about it at some point since he escaped his escape craft via smaller escape craft. Then things got really weird thanks to the exploding bananas. Katse used to be the king of this trope, what with the mooks blocking the heroes, the innocents needing to be rescued, the sliding doors, and the bombs. Small personal and medium bombs, as well as the blow-up-the-base variety.

In the very first episode, when Yoda quite neatly disassembles all Ventress' attacks with his superior Force abilities, she resorts to causing an overhead mountain to explode, so while Yoda catches the boulders with his telekinesis she runs away faster than the Road Runner to a nearby escape pod. A particularly bizarre case features in the debut of Hondo. After Anakin and Obi-Wan finally defeat him and have him at their mercy, Hondo expects to be placed under arrest and thrown in jail. Obi-Wan however, orders Hondo to be let go. He warns Hondo that Count Dooku, whom Hondo had also crossed, will be likely to be far less merciful, implying that Obi-Wan is counting on Dooku killing him...but Hondo shows up in future episodes unharmed, meaning such an event never occurred. So ultimately Hondo escaped and never faced punishment for his crimes because Obi-Wan...didn't feel like following proper protocol and bringing him in apparently...

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_5755b96a	comment	The Order of the Stick plays this straight, subverts, and lampshades it on several occasions. Lampshaded and subverted in this earlier comic. A minor villain attempts to exit stage left, only to be ganked by the resident Heroic Comedic Sociopath, who is then chided by his Genre Savvy teammates for killing off a recurring villain. Played straight here, at the end of the Dungeon of Dorukan arc. The heroes, after defeating Xykon thanks to a Deus ex Machina, completely ignore his henchman, Redcloak, allowing the latter to escape with the lich's Soul Jar. Lampshaded again in this strip, when Nale uses a conveniently timed distraction to make an exit, only to return moments later with the evil cavalry. Nale does it again in Bleedingham, although Malack does at least point out that it's only a short-range teleportation spell and instructs the City Guards to search for him. Played tragically straight here, where Miko's ill-timed intervention allows the nearly defeated villains to make a last-second escape. The Order Invokes this by ganging up on one villain in a pitched fight, which prematurely triggers the Contingency spell that teleports him away from serious harm. The villain's allies are left behind.

Wii will jump onto the airship as Mario runs up to him, stays a good four or five feet away, and just stands there watching as he flies off with the princess. Except for two worlds, where the airship actually left without him. This results in him running after it and Mario finally chasing him to it. An airship level ensues. You fight him at the end, although he just jettisons you each time you beat him. Stupid Kamek. In the final world (save the secret one) there isn't any chase scene, you just run up to the airship, infiltrate it, and engage him in his really final boss fight. I mean it this time. Also used repeatedly in the Paper Mario series; at one point, to escape, minor baddie Mimi simply floats up and apparently passes through a wall, perhaps by flipping to 3-D.

In the second season, recurring MAD agents would appear for three episodes, escaping without being arrested in each episode. No one really seemed to care that the MAD agents were still loose and could strike again at any time. Penny in particular suffered character decay, as she didn't seem to be bothered in the slightest about the escape of agents who had been trying to kill her uncle, and who would return to do so again. In the 2015 reboot series, Claw's nephew Talon has rocket boots that help him carry on this tradition.

In 3rd Edition, it's usually Dimension Door, but that only gives a head start of a few hundred feet to whatever serves as an escape pod. However, a magic item, the Corrupted Unicorn Horn, takes this a step further and returns the possessor to wherever the horn was obtained. Ever since this item was published, more and more villains have been getting away easier. Other core spells that provide similar functions include Plane Shift, Word of Recall, and, at really low levels, Invisibility (which even comes in potion form for non-spellcasting cowards).

Said departures are usually marked by teleportation along with copious amounts of Stuff Blowing Up to distract them. In the series finale, she flees through the portal to the Far Side of Atmos only after her best warrior dies and her Ominous Floating Castle starts collapsing around her along with her empire, with the Storm Hawks following after her in hot pursuit.

It's at least parodied with Lash, who even leaves a dummy of herself behind to distract Sami and Nell while she flees. It's usually justified, since the commanders communicate by radio and can simply evacuate well before they're in any real danger, and they'll invariably get caught when they run out of territories to flee to. It is, however, played straight with Jugger, Koal, and Kindle, who realize they're beat and set off in a tank to start anew elsewhere, and Vlad does this in Battalion Wars (though in the sequel, the protagonists simply shoot down his escape transport when he attempts this).

Here, the Red Skull's consciousness is forced back into his robot body after being forced out of Rogers' by Rogers himself. Unplugging himself, the Red Skull tries to make a break for it hoping the big fight around would cover his tracks. Sharon Carter stops that in a brilliantly counter-intuitive way by using Dr. Hank Pym's size-changing technology to make him a giant before he got away. Yes, that means that there now is a giant Red Skull trying to stomp the superheroes, but it also means that there is no way he can sneak away now and fighting with Colossus Climb tactics is old hat for Captain America and his friends, not to mention Sharon gets The Vision to access the Skull's ship's weapons systems to hit a now really big target.

If the villain can transform like the heroes can, teleporting to escape is often the only power they have that doesn't require being in their superpowered alter-ego. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid subverts the usual infallibility of this exit method when the title character has his final showdown with his Enemy Without. After suffering a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown, Parado attempts to teleport away and declare that he'll get Ex-Aid next time. Instead Ex-Aid grabs Parado by the neck to yank him out of his teleport animation, drags him to the ground, and tells him that there's not going to be a next time. Kamen Rider Build provides a rare inversion: when Gentoku switches sides, he keeps the piece of equipment that he used to make his retreats as a villain, and uses it the same way when the heroes need to exit stage right.

Sometimes he does go to jail, but he never seems to stay there long. It was also subverted once when he tried to get away with a jetpack but forgot he was inside and collided into the ceiling. Although at the beginning of the fourth season, while Kim would be fighting some other villain, an episode would sometimes end with Drakken, showing how he was coping in prison with his ridiculously annoying cellmate/Fan Boy Frugal Lucre. Further twisting the knife, at least twice someone broke out Shego, leaving Drakken behind to rot.

No matter where he happened to be at the time, as soon as his plan went sour a great big drill-car thing (referred to as a Transport Module) would burrow up from the ground, he'd hop in and head back underground to the Technodrome, and at no point did it occur to the turtles to simply go down the hole after him. Mind you, the holes did have a tendency to fill up with lava and cool into rock pretty quickly seeing as the Big Bad's HQ was at the center of the Earth. In fact, the turtles once attempted to pursue Shred-Head's escape through the driller in one episode... and were quickly rewarded by literally getting the Hot Foot within moments. In seasons where the Technodrome was in Dimension X, Shredder and company would escape via a portable dimensional portal instead. Lampshaded in one episode where a guest character shouts "Shredder is getting away!" and Raphael wearily responds "Yeah, you get used to that." Averted by Shredder in the 2003 series, but played straight by Agent Bishop. In the 2003 series, when minor villain Dr. Malignus's plans get foiled by Silver Sentry and Mikey, he manages to escape Silver Sentry, noting how he always has an escape plan. Subverted when he does get stopped by Mikey seconds later.

Kefka repeatedly employs a Villain: Exit, Stage Left after being hit, but Sabin does try to chase him down. The only reason Kefka gets away is because of conveniently placed enemies. Kefka employs this trope an awful lot in the early parts of the game, while he's still being portrayed as a minor comic-relief villain. Pretty much everything goes to hell when Kefka stops running. A couple times he also jokes as he runs. They yell at him to wait and he responds "Wait he says. What do I look like, a waiter?" In Final Fantasy VII, Rude's defeat animation consists of him looking at his watch and walking away, with the heroes making no effort to pursue. But then again, said animation is too badass to interrupt. The sole exception is Rocket Town where he falls to his knees instead and is shown KOed following the fight. Seifer in Final Fantasy VIII does this every time you fight him. One gets the impression that Squall really just doesn't want to kill him. However, unlike Reno, you do knock him out once. Final Fantasy XIII: Dysley (aka Barthandalus) does this twice to the protagonists before they are finally able to put him out of his misery. Justified in that his entire plan hinges on the protagonists getting stronger and making it through everything else alive. Caius Ballad in Final Fantasy XIII-2 walks away no less than six times! Every time he does, there's not much Serah and Noel can do about it because they have no idea what time period he'll pop up in next. In Final Fantasy XV, after defeating Aranea, she simply gets up and comments that her shift is over - she won't fight the protagonists unless she's getting paid to do so - and then literally jumps out of there with a "'til next time".

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_aaa83758	comment	In Return to Castle Wolfenstein and its sequel, Wolfenstein (2009), the Nazi Mad Scientist Wilhelm "Deathshead" Strasse always gets away. So far it's happened four times: first with a U-Boat from Kugelstadt, then with a rocketplane from occupied Norway, then from the top of his personal castle after a Giant Space Flea from Nowhere destroyed his extradimensional battery, and lastly from a parallel dimension, through an ancient portal that led to an exploding Zepellin. The producers don't seem to want to kill him off since, as far as Those Wacky Nazis go, he's actually a rather competent villain. He even gets promoted to General between the two games. However, in The New Order, this trope is averted and Deathshead is finally Killed Off for Real at the end of the game.

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_ac07f986	comment	Super Friends does this ALL THE TIME. Just about every episode ends with the Legion of Doom defeated and with no way out, but the Super Friends pretty much let them get away. At one point, the Legion of Doom can only resort to TURNING INVISIBLE. And the Super Friends just. Stand. There. This would occasionally be subverted in later seasons, especially with one-shot villains. In "Rub Three Times For Disaster", an Arabian Nights-themed villain gives the classic "he who fights and runs away" line while seated in his escape vehicle, only to be promptly lassoed by Wonder Woman and taken into custody. In "The Case of the Dreadful Dolls", Dollmaker tries to escape in a jeep, only for Firestorm to zap the jeep and turn it into a Jack-in-the-Box with Dollmaker tied up inside. In "Village of Lost Souls", Brainiac tries to escape in his spaceship, but Apache Chief turns giant and grabs it. Brainiac then tries to leave in an escape pod, but Apache Chief plucks it out of the air as well. In "The Ghost Ship", Superman grabs Darkseid's ship to prevent it from leaving, but Darkseid hurls a necklace that contains a miniaturized population towards a sun. Superman is forced to let the ship go to save the necklace.

It doesn't work, mostly because the hero isn't in the mood to just let him get away. Bomb Voyage does manage this, though. In the confusion that erupts when Incredi-Boy interferes with Mr. Incredible's business and ultimately causes him to derail a monorail train — not to mention Mr. Incredible's wedding, which is due to happen later that night — the mad-bomber villain manages to slip away and... well, apparently disappears off the face of the Earth, because we don't see or hear from him again at any time afterward. The police set up a (futile) dragnet, but Mr. Incredible figures he'll just chase down Bomb Voyage some other night. But that night never comes, because the very next day he has a major lawsuit brought against him for the train wreck, and a chain of events is set in motion that forces all superheroes in America to unmask and assume civilian identities.

Top Dollar taunts Eric and then orders the whole crew to open fire on him - which, of course, touches off a frighteningly violent from-beyond-the-grave vigilante massacre that persuades Top Dollar, his half-sister, and his bodyguard to flee the scene long before Eric has slaughtered the last baddie. The thing is, Top Dollar never even had to flee in the first place: Skank was there too, and Top Dollar could have just saved his own life and that of almost everyone else in the room if he'd simply let Eric take Skank. Even then, Top Dollar would probably have lived if only he hadn't kidnapped the street kid who was Eric's best friend - not to mention that he outright admits that he was the one ultimately responsible for the girlfriend's murder once he (supposedly) has Eric beaten.

She face plants during her second escape, gets back up, and keeps running as if nothing happened. Worth a thousand words.◊ Heck even her human counterpart pulled in this Rainbow Rocks after the Dazzlings were defeated. The Flim Flam Brothers likewise did this in both their appearances. First time, when their apple cider turned out to be so undrinkable, the crowd turned on them and they fled despite winning their contest with the Apple clan. Second time, Applejack exposed their tonic was bunk, they quickly beat a hasty exit while Applejack is giving her Aesop before the ponies could take notice. When Starlight Glimmer's plan in "The Cutie Map" is foiled and she realizes she can't defeat Twilight Sparkle in a fight, she creates an explosion as cover, then runs into a mountain cave system. The heroes decide not to follow her because those caves are like a maze, and only hope she learns her lesson. In "To Where and Back Again", despite Chrysalis threatening destruction on Equestria and all the most powerful ponies and creatures in Equestria within sight of her, not a single one of them does anything to prevent her escape as she slowly flies away. In "Once Upon a Zeppelin", the crowd gets angry when they find out Iron Will scammed Twilight Sparkle and her family. He escapes by jumping off the zeppelin with a parachute. In "The Mean Six", the clones of the Mane Six that Chrysalis creates are destroyed by the Tree of Harmony when they try to take the elements, thus she vows revenge once again and flees without the Mane Six even knowing she was present.

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: "Terror of the Autons": At the end, UNIT does chase after the Master, but give up when they find his abandoned vehicle. The Doctor is completely unconcerned about the likelihood of the villain returning. "As a matter of fact, Jo, I'm rather looking forward to it." The Master would then perform this trope in almost every one of his appearances (except for those in which he "dies"). Likewise Davros, who almost literally performs this trope by sliding backwards out of frame at the moment of his catastrophic defeat in "Remembrance of the Daleks"; the tiny dot of an escape pod can subsequently be seen fleeing the Imperial Dalek mothership just before it explodes. Implied in "Resurrection of the Daleks", where he coyly tests the access to his secret escape pod for the camera before the climax. It is actually quite rare for non-Master Who villains to escape; one exception is Count Grendel in "The Androids of Tara". After the Doctor and his allies storm Grendel's castle, the Count shouts "next time, I shall not be so lenient!" before jumping off a parapet into his moat and swimming away. "The End of the World": Lady Cassandra O'Brien attempts to exit in a leftward direction via teleportation, only for the Doctor to teleport her back moments later â€” while she's bragging to her henchmen. "Boom Town": Similarly subverted when Margaret Blaine repeatedly runs away from the Doctor, only to be forcibly teleported back by her own device. "Doomsday": The Cyber-Leader tries to do this, but is stopped by a Cyberconverted Yvonne Hartman performing a You Shall Not Pass! As far as the Daleks of the Cult of Skaro go: "EMERGENCY TEMPORAL SHIFT!" "Evolution of the Daleks": Dalek Caan, the last surviving member of the Cult of Skaro, pulls another "EMERGENCY TEMPORAL SHIFT!" when confronted by the Doctor at the end. "Spyfall": During part 1's cliffhanger, the Master teleports away after he thinks the Doctor has been killed by one of his sort-of-minions, leaving the companions plummeting to their doom on a cockpit-less, out-of-control plane. In part 2, Daniel Barton is last seen fleeing his press conference and calling for an extraction team after the Doctor foils the Evil Plan. "Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror": After being blasted with lightning from Wardenclyffe tower, unnoticed by the heroes, the Skithra ship is seen fleeing into the sky.

This was addressed in one episode, an Officer Jenny blasted them off, disappointed that they got away but remarking that there were more powerful members of Team Rocket around that the police force should occupy their time with catching. On the other hand, they usually don't let them escape conventionally. If Team Rocket attempt to run and surrender in a transitional sense of the trope, the heroes will often decide they're not finished and continue attacking until it triggers their usual "blast off". In this sense, Team Rocket also escape, but never avoid a comeuppance. As of Black & White, instead of "blasting off", they simply escape, usually by jetpack or Bewear, when they lose.

This didn't seem so bad after his Badass Decay but back when he was a legitimate threat, it could really get on your nerves. Perhaps the most egregious is in "Halloween", where Buffy is standing right next to him as he starts to run away in defeat and clearly could have easily killed him. "Crush" is possibly the most egregious; Drusilla returns to Sunnydale and Spike attempts to stake her to prove his love for Buffy. Buffy is disgusted, Spike gets distracted by Harmony, and Drusilla tries to kill Buffy. She fails, naturally, with Spike even helping Buffy out. Drusilla then mourns the fact that Spike is lost to the evil side, and... wanders offscreen while both Spike and Buffy just stand there. Sure, Spike might not have wanted to kill his ex-girlfriend now that he had nothing to gain from it, but Buffy sure as hell had reason to kill Drusilla — especially since Drusilla had recently murdered several people in an incident known to the Scoobies! Instead, Drusilla just leaves so she can be on Angel again. And worst of all, she never was: The episode was her last present day appearance, with her only appearing on both shows in flashback or as a doppelganger after that. So she was basically given Joker Immunity just so she could never be seen again! The instances of Harmony getting away are rather irrational, considering that they always beat her so easily. She does still drink people's blood! Also done humorously with the vampire Lyle Gorch in "Bad Eggs", who keeps saying "This ain't over!"... until he sees Buffy hack a giant underground tentacle-monster to death with a pickaxe. Buffy takes a beating from Warren until she manages to destroy the artifacts giving him super strength. Now that he has no chance to win, he whips out a previously unseen jetpack and flies away. Too tired to follow him, Buffy groans, "You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!" Spoofed when Warren's partner Andrew also attempts to escape in a jetpack but hits his head on a ceiling and knocks himself unconscious. The trio make an embarrassing escape in "Gone". Willow foils their invisibility spell at the arcade, after which they use a smoke bomb as cover for their escape and almost don't get away because they have trouble opening the door. In the Musical Episode, the villain pulls this off with grace and style. By the end, the Scoobies are united against him, and a threat from Willow seems to give him a moment of Sensing You Are Outmatched. But more importantly, his only goal in coming to Sunnydale was to sow chaos For the Evulz. By the time the heroes are ready to face him, he has done everything he wanted and had fun doing it. After a smug reprise of his Villain Song the show's over, so (like the performer he is) he decides to bow out. He applauds them for "winning" this Pyrrhic Victory and they do not face him again.

Also played with at one point when Xigbar introduces himself in the Land of Dragons summons heartless, disappears... and when the camera turns around to show Sora being battle ready, we can see Xigbar running away behind Sora in a goofy manner. In Kingdom Hearts III: When Xigbar is defeated by Sora and Riku, he teleports to the top of the wall and jumps off. Seemingly a case of Better to Die than Be Killed. However, the game's epilogue reveals that was a fake-out and he really escaped to enact his true plan as Luxu.

Villain: Exit, Stage Left / int_f6c16bab	comment	The Saga of Darren Shan: In the second half, Darren and two other vampires are tasked with chasing down the leader of the enemy clan of vampires. The Either/Or Prophecy says that they will encounter him four times, and if they don't kill him in those encounters, their clan will fall. In three of those encounters, of course, he escapes, setting up for the final showdown. The first is more of a Screw This, I'm Outta Here after Darren and his friends spring a surprise attack and kill all their friends without even getting their names (and these are supposed to be the heroes...) In the second, they're on the Lord's territory and he's just killed one of the Hunters, though they think they've killed the real Lord. He springs a horrible secret onto them before leaving, adding to their torment. His exit is justified by the fact that they'd agreed to single combat, and said that both sides will let all others go unharmed. In the third case, though, Steve has Darren at his mercy, bleeding on a city street, and decides to let him go just so that he can torture him further. This violates the prophecy and dooms his side, but he doesn't care.

Typically the reason for the Decepticons getting away in the old series was that they could fly and the Autobots couldn't, even though they could in the pilot episode. A spin on it was done in Transformers: Armada, where the Decepticons got away by teleporting; the episodes that revolved around getting a Minicon always had them teleporting away, regardless of whether they got it or not. This led some to some moments where they would leave even if they had the overall advantage. Although this wasn't the only Transformers series that did it, it did it the most frequently.

For instance, his first Silver Age appearance has him escaping through a hidden wall panel door. Bucky is all for smashing through it to begin the chase, but Captain America realizes that panel is a disguised steel door and by the time they get it open to the escape tunnel, the Skull would be long gone. As Cap says in the story "Whoever this Red Skull is, he's no amateur!" In a modern version, Cap pursues the Skull in one of his buildings and loses him just long enough to find a veritable maze of multiple possible escape routes the Skull prepared for this situation and decides trying to guess correctly which one he took would be unlikely and a waste of time to try. Subverted at the climax of Captain America: Reborn. Here, the Red Skull's consciousness is forced back into his robot body after being forced out of Rogers' by Rogers himself. Unplugging himself, the Red Skull tries to make a break for it hoping the big fight around would cover his tracks. Sharon Carter stops that in a brilliantly counter-intuitive way by using Dr. Hank Pym's size-changing technology to make him a giant before he got away. Yes, that means that there now is a giant Red Skull trying to stomp the superheroes, but it also means that there is no way he can sneak away now and fighting with Colossus Climb tactics is old hat for Captain America and his friends, not to mention Sharon gets The Vision to access the Skull's ship's weapons systems to hit a now really big target. Acts of Vengeance: Subverted. In context, the Red Skull was confronted by Magneto, a Holocaust survivor, and attempts to flee, snapping a Nazi salute as he does to piss Magneto off. However, the Skull is relying on a hidden train (on metal tracks) and army of robot guards (made of metal) to provide cover as he flees from the Master of Magnetism. Magneto easily smashes through the Skull's defenses and traps him.
