Something important is locked. There is a key. However, this key is inside. You need the key to reach the key. While this trope can be Played for Laughs with trivial situations such as locking your car keys in the car, many works that use it choose to employ it in a far more dramatic manner. The hero is on a quest to find the key, eventually finding some other way to reach what he needed the key for - and then he finds out that his initial quest was futile; the key was inside all along. Examples of The Key Is Behind the Lock include:
