Henchmen Domino

Verb. The sudden, unexplained (or barely explained) death of henchmen, soldiers or underlings that occurs once their leader has been killed.

Considered a tired trope used by lazy writers; primarily in science fiction and fantasy works.
"Season 8 of Game of Thrones should be erased from existence."
"Oh - agree completely. The worst part was when Arya kills The Night King, and they fucking Henchmen Domino'ed the White Walkers."
