Line 2:
A work begins with a character captured (or they are captured very shortly into the work) and the rest of the work uses their interrogation as the [[Framing Device]] for the plot.
 
This is naturally subject to [[Unreliable Narrator]]. A [[Sub -Trope]] of [[Whole-Episode Flashback]] and [[How We Got Here]]. Since the character has to be ''alive'' to be interrogated, their survival (and the interrogator's if they are introduced in the flashback) and capture is a [[Foregone Conclusion]].
