1 | '''Basic Trope''': The whole group is dead except the single survivor. |
2 | * '''Straight''': Alex and his RagtagBunchOfMisfits infiltrate the ElaborateUndergroundBase, destroy the DoomsdayDevice, kill the BigBad, and escape the pursuing EvilArmy... or rather, Alex escapes. The others [[HeDidntMakeIt do not make it]]. |
3 | * '''Exaggerated''': The whole planet explodes but Alex is the only one to OutrunTheFireball. |
4 | * '''Downplayed''': The two {{Red Shirt}}s/{{Mauve Shirt}}s that were with Alex at the time die, leaving Alex on his own for a while. |
5 | * '''Justified''': Alex is the only experienced fighter in the team and his friends are painfully unqualified for a SuicideMission but there are no other options. |
6 | * '''Inverted''': |
7 | ** After killing BigBad, [[YouShallNotPass Alex stays behind to hold off the]] [[FacelessGoons evil army]] while everyone else escapes safely. |
8 | ** EverybodyLives |
9 | ** Everyone, except TheHero Alex, survives. |
10 | * '''Subverted''': |
11 | ** It looks like Alex is the only one who survived... and then he dies of poison that the BigBad injected him with earlier. |
12 | ** A more optimistic alternative: At least some of Alex's friends weren't killed, only scattered by dimensional dislocation, and find their way back eventually. |
13 | * '''Double Subverted''': Alex dies of poison, but it turns out he wasn't the only survivor, after all. |
14 | * '''Parodied''': Everyone that Alex teams up with, even the [[VoiceWithAnInternetConnection fat hacker geek who stayed back home to monitor Team Evils moves]], ends up dying. If they somehow survive the adventure, Alex will eventually kill them in a [[CrossesTheLineTwice hilarious freak accident]]. |
15 | * '''Zig Zagged''': Alex dies of poison, but it turns out that Bertie was still alive - for two more seconds, as a spear pierces his heart. Then Cody is suddenly revealed to be alive, too, however, he succumbs to a concussion that he got earlier when ramming head first into TheBrute. [[OverlyLongGag Then Diane opens her eyes...]] |
16 | * '''Averted''': At least half of Alex's friends make it. |
17 | * '''Enforced''': Alex's friends are [[DroppedABridgeOnHim killed abruptly and pointlessly]] towards the end of the mission for the sake of additional drama. |
18 | * '''Lampshaded''': "It's one of those missions where just one of us makes it, buddy." |
19 | * '''Invoked''': "Forget about us! We are expendable, but YOU must make it! Alex, go!" |
20 | * '''Exploited''': Calcutron the [[MostDefinitelyNotAVillain Not Evil At All Computer]] murders all but Alex in order to [[HeroicBSoD break him.]] |
21 | * '''Defied''': Rather than escape, Alex stays behind to help his friends against all odds. |
22 | * '''Discussed''': "Don't you dare die on me! How am I supposed to live on without you all?!" "It's OK, buddy. We weren't the best team for you, I'm afraid..." |
23 | * '''Conversed''': "Alex looks like the only guy who knows what he is doing, while the rest are just noobs. I bet everybody but him will die in the end." |
24 | * '''Deconstructed''': Alex is plagued by the SurvivorGuilt for the rest of his life. |
25 | * '''Reconstructed''': Alex gets over his SurvivorGuilt and becomes a [[TheStrategist careful planner]] [[TheMenFirst dedicated to never lose another teammate]]. |
26 | * '''Played For Drama''': One team member must be chosen to BringNewsBack. Everybody knows that he or she will have the best chances of survival... by ''de facto'' abandoning his friends. |
27 | * '''Played For Laughs''': Alex had stumbled into a group of his dead teammates. He promptly drops the following quip: |
28 | --> '''[[HeroicComedicSociopath Alex]]''': Wow, talk about a crazy party. Why didn't you fools invite me, huh? |
