Take every Lara Croft game or movie, for instance.

Lara: Flips, jumps, cartwheels, exercises genius archaelogical expertise to solve intricate puzzles and avoid death traps
Villain: shows up fatly where the final relic is just before Lara does

How?

You know how there is always a door after the final boss that lets you out to the overworld? They used that.

I think the first time this trope genuinely pissed me off was in Fallout 3, when Col. Autumn and his Enclave squad teleport deep into Vault 87 with enough time to plan a trap for you, after so much fuss had been made over 87's lethal shroud of radiation, and that there was only one convoluted way to get in. So either Col. Autumn and co. all popped Super-Duper-Magic Rad-X and went in through the front door, or they somehow resisted the urge to paint the cave walls with MacCready's and all the other Little Lamplighters' brains; either solution is equally implausible.
