== Anime and Manga ==
* Used in the flashback episode of ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' showing the lead characters' first mission together. The kidnap victim ([[The President's Daughter]], of course) is forced to dress in a demeaning outfit and read her captors' demands (which are very particular).

Line 15 ⟶ 18:
== Live Action TV ==
* ''[[The Bill]]'' had this happen to Abigail Nixon, who was tied up in a shipping container and left to suffocate.
* ''[[24|Twenty Four]]'' likes this trope a lot, such as with Secretary Heller in Season 4.
* ''[[Airwolf]]'' did this once, with a group of totally uncooperative hostages.
* CSI had one with where the rest of the time could watch their teammate Nick Stokes trapped in a box and [[Buried Alive]].
* ''[[Castle]]'' did this with some guy that had his son kidnapped. The son manages to sneak in a hidden message.
* In the first episode of ''[[Black Mirror (TV series)|Black Mirror]]'' a member of the royal family gets kidnapped with the single demand of the Prime Minster to have sex with a pig on live TV. The real kicker is that it's sent over youtube so everybody knows about it.

== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In one episode of ''[[Fantomette]]'', the heroine's best friend once tried to force [[Big Bad|Silver]] [[Villain with Good Publicity|Mask]] to reveal what happened to her parents but his [[Co-Dragons]] rescue him and he takes advantage of it to pretend he's been abducted and ask for a ranson from town. He gave a [[Hostage Video]] where he unwittingly clued the heroine to his whereabouts.
