Do you ever run into times when you know the story requires that something happen but you can't make it make sense with the characters? Which wins, the plot or the characters?

For me, the characters always win. If what's supposed to happen doesn't make sense with the characters, then I assume I've made a mistake in my planning. I have to find another way to move the plot forward.
