I apologize if I\\\'ve got the wrong tale. But I recall there being an indestructible gate. And everyone behind the gate made a huge deal out of its indestructibility. When the heroes were trapped on the wrong side of the indestructible gate, they trashed _everything_else_ to escape, leaving the indestructible gate intact. After this, the indestructible gate was replaced with one that was \\\'almost indestructible\\\' to avoid the same result incase the same thing happened again. Seems, like a trope. Related to things like why go through the trouble to rob the painting from penthouse when I can goad my rival to do it and drop it in the trash chute for later retrieval (by me instead of him, as it turns out). Or in Oceans 12 the hysters did something similar. In the Andy Griffith Show, some bank robbers cracked a vault only to find Andy waiting inside for them. He had let them crack the vault and thanked them profusely as he arrested them. He was grateful someone had managed to learn the combination. He\\\'d used the back door to enter the vault that had been installed when the bank manager had forgotten the password years before.
