How about a classic Mary Sue trope, where a creative type winds up in a situation where they really do have exactly the expertise required to resolve a sticky situation?
Another possibility I'd like to see tipped on its head is the "marked case dies first" trope (PoC, LGBTQ, etc.) In a related vein, someone gets their comeuppance from the old/disabled/servant-appearing people they bypassed on the way to commit whatever mischief they were intent on.
