While Mr. Volf falls just short of hagiography at times and ultimately succumbs to other equally mythological narratives about her later life — the notion that her demise was hastened by a jilted heart, for one — there's enough fresh stuff here that the documentary deserves plaudits for its archival meticulousness.
Sure, it's sorrowful — the A-plot is Anya trying desperately to wreak vengeance on Xander after being jilted in "Hell's Bells" — but it doesn't indulge in that "the world is a miserable place filled with nothing but despair" vibe that much of the rest of the season succumbs to.
And who can forget the moment she finally succumbs to her illness, with Grams by her side — a woman who has cared for Jen as if she were her own child over the past decade who can only utter "I'll see you soon, child" as her final words to her granddaughter.
As Smith shows, if you create a practical guide that is sophisticated enough to recommend all the same behaviors as the overarching theory, you risk ending up with a guide so sophisticated that it succumbs to the very problems of usability that got us into this mess in the first place.
With no way to escape, Manhattan teleports Adrian, Agent Blake, and Wade Tillman/Looking Glass (who had all gathered to thwart Trieu) to Adrian&aposs lab, and succumbs to Trieu&aposs centrifuge — but not before he relives all of his moments with Angela at once, and tells her he loves her. 
In "The Horse Thief" the hero succumbs not to the lure of something dark and deadly, but to the mysterious spirit of a great animal, and although it would be a stretch to say that the story ends happily it does conclude with a wholly unexpected burst of lyricism, a moment of transcendence.
Once the Boltons' phalanx surrounds the Starks, we, with Jon, are buried beneath a mountain of corpses, caked in gore, and helpless to protect Tormund, who sees your headbutt and raises you a throat-biting, and Wun Wun, who punches a horse in the face, then succumbs inside the castle gates to something like 20 good arrows.
Lindsay's highly stylized and cartoonish style pairs quite well with the genre of her choice, and the way she lays out the pages mirrors her own unraveling: her corporate, hamster-wheel-like life is narrated in neat grids, while, as she progressively succumbs to mania, she takes more artistic freedoms with the layout of the pages.
Nah. That turns out to mostly not be the case, and it turns out to not be the case in the most bitter and dark way possible, as Daenerys succumbs to what amounts to a family curse, the Hound plunges into battle against the Mountain, and Jaime returns to Cersei after seeming to swear her off multiple times previously.
In addition to being the seminal influence on modern haunted house tales, this story of Jack Torrance's fight against addiction as he succumbs to the demons of the Overlook Hotel is worth reading both for its insights into King's own fights with alcoholism and other addictions and for its differences from the legendary Stanley Kubrick film version (which King legendarily hates).
This episode has three blockbusters in that vein: Jon and Dany meeting for the first time in the Dragonstone throne room (my favorite of Deb Riley's many spectacular sets), Cersei exacting brutal revenge on Ellaria in the black cells, and Lady Olenna (all hail, Dame Diana!) informing Jaime it was she who murdered Joffrey all those years ago… just before she succumbs to poison herself.
An otherwise highly competent director (in this case, Terry George) succumbs to the lure of addressing a real-life atrocity (here, the still-contested slaughter of more than a million peaceful Armenians by the Ottoman Empire during World War I).

On December 19, just before Rise of Skywalker's release, Johnson responded to an angry fan on Twitter who, like many of The Last Jedi's detractors, said Johnson ruined the character of Luke Skywalker by making him a man who succumbs to emotions, betraying the character as the uncompromising hero they always believed him to be: Gil, I understand that point of view but I completely disagree with it.
