* In ''[[The Force Unleashed]] 2'', Darth Vader tries to force Starkiller to work for him again by kidnapping Juno Eclipse, the woman he loves.
{{quote|'''Vader''': Find and kill General Kota. If you refuse, the woman dies. You will return to me and give yourself to The Dark Side. If you resist, she dies. And when your training is complete, you will hunt down and execute the rebel leaders. If you FAIL, SHE DIES! }}
* The motivation for the protagonist in ''The Getaway''. Hilariously parodied by the [https://web.archive.org/web/20120514185058/http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/unskippable/520-The-Getaway Unskippable crew]:
{{quote|'''Charlie Jolson''': I ring you, you do the job. You don't do what I tell you, the kid dies. You don't do it where I tell you, the kid dies. You don't do it when I tell you, the kid dies!

* The ''[[Loading Ready Run]]'' episode "[https://web.archive.org/web/20130117023535/http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/loadingreadyrun/3327-Ransom Ransom]" took it to its illogical extreme. The villain kidnaps the hero's girlfriend and calls him with the demands. The hero counters by kidnapping the villain's henchmen. The villain escalates by kidnapping the hero's mother which the hero counters by capturing the villain's deaf brother. All this takes place in the span of five minutes with the hero and villain still engaged in the original phone conversation. The villain tries to end things by kidnapping the hero but the hero responds by kidnapping the villain (while still tied up in the villain's lair).
