Alright, let\\\'s make this as close to the definition on tha page as possible: \\\"A particularly Genre Savvy person will recognize the fact that heroes always win — and design a plan based on the assumption that they will succeed.\\\"

* The Daleks are GenreSavvy enough to realize [[TheGoodGuysAlwaysWin the Doctor always escapes]], and designs their entire plan to destroy their asylum on the assumption that if they drop the Doctor there, he\\\'ll be able to escape that situation too.

clearer?

Also still want you to point out the part that says an UnwittingPawn is a requirement.

Then go ahead and highlight the part of the trope description that say \\\"the victim is not allowed to know the plan\\\". Because I\\\'ve already highlighted the part that contradicts that. Here\\\'s another part of the description that is this exact example:

* A particularly Genre Savvy person will recognize the fact that heroes always win — and design a plan based on the assumption that they will succeed.

And the Doctor certainly has a choice: failure. It is only his character that compells him to escape the asylum. He could just sit and wait for rescue like Oswin did.
