I’m embarrassed to say that I have encountered this, this particular type of story on multiple occasions So I got curious, is there a name to this trope?

    Pity, 'cause it’s a great question, and a great trope. I can think of a few good examples. Maybe it’s time to start a TVTropes account and get editing.
