25->''I ran into some technical difficulties with this game. Instead of the burning pain I was expecting in my eyes from the ''Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm'' title screen, my UsefulNotes/GameBoy displayed a picture of my mother with a laser knife to her throat and croaked in a digital voice, "[[AC:REMOVE THE GAME FROM MY CARTRIDGE PORT. OR THE HUMAN WOMAN DIES.]]" So yes, this video game is a tragedy, but the fact that it could actually cause a machine to feel emotions, no matter how terrifying, is an amazing technological leap for the industry.''

47->Some very rich people live in the lawless nooks and crannies of the world. Many of those rich people have families, and you became quite rich by finding out just how much some of those family members were worth.

More often, Husband Dearest figured out that you were serious and got his wife back none the worse for wear.
48-->--'''The Bogeyman,''' ''TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade - Clanbook: Assamite (Revised)''

50->[[TheHero John]]. As recordings are so... sadly impersonal, I'll have to imagine what your face looks like now. Etched with failure, I expect. I have [[BestFriend Ka D'Argo]]'s son. Surrender to me, or the boy dies.
51-->--'''Scorpius,''' ''Series/{{Farscape}}'', "[[Recap/FarscapeS02E20LiarsGunsAndMoneyWithFriendsLikeThese With Friends Like These]]"

55'''Jason:''' You [[MadeASlave bought him]] from [[AmoralAfrikaner Hoyt]].\
56'''Buck(getting a [[TheBogan beer]]):''' Oh, him! He said his name was...(imitates Keith [[RapeAsDrama screaming through a gag]], then [[EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor laughs helplessly]]).\
57'''Jason:''' [[DeadpanSnarker You're hysterical]].\
58'''Buck:''' [[FauxAffablyEvil All right, then.]] Let's get down to brass tacks. You must be Jason Brody.\
59'''Jason''': ''Look, I just want Keith!''\
60'''Buck''': Jason, Jason, Jason. [[HypocriticalHumor We're not all savages here!]] We're just [[BlatantLies businessmen, responsible capitalists]]. I've got something that, that you want, right? That's [[ItIsDehumanising a product]]. You've got something that I want.\

65->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. Are you getting my drift? Now, you want to see your kid again, you do exactly what I say. You talk to anyone, you're late, or you let me down, ''your kid dies''! Any questions?
66-->--'''[[LondonGangster Charlie Jolson]]''', ''VideoGame/TheGetaway1''
67
68->Not every threat a [[EvilSorcerer Nephandus]] levels against the object of her quest is against him directly. Snatching a loved one - [[WouldHurtAChild children are preferred when available]] - and then offering to trade the hostage's continued good health in exchange for service is a time-honored Nephandic technique. The victim is presented with evidence of the hostage's current health and peril, and informed that the hostage will stay health as long as the target does exactly what he's told. Nine times out of ten, the tasks laid before him serve no real purpose other than to [[TheCorrupter sully his reputation and get him used to committing atrocities]]. Orders to commit theft or vandalism rapidly transform into demands for assault, murder and worse. But, with the hostage's safety in the balance, the target can do nothing but obey.
69->In may cases, once the victim is judged sufficiently tainted, [[KickTheDog the hostage is killed and the corpse mutilated for the new recruit's benefit]]. However, with his reputation savaged and even his former friends convinced that he's irredeemable, the target has nowhere else to go. Confronted with evidence that [[ShootTheShaggyDogStory he's destroyed himself in vain]], his options are death, self-destruction or damnation. More times than not, [[FaceHeelTurn he chooses the last]].
70-->--''TabletopGame/MageTheAscension - The Book Of Madness''
71
72->I told you I wanted [[LivingDollCollector my doll back]], and since you don't care enough to give my poor sweet lovely doll back to me even after three hundred and fifty souls lie dead at my feet, I WILL MAKE YOU CARE. I made the little Lion cry. I sheared him and [[FingerInTheMail sent a part of him to you as a present]]. I even wrote this letter in his blood. Do you see it? Do you care, or are you as heartless as you always have been? Can you hear him weeping in his sleep? I made him bleed, all because of you.
73-->--'''The Hellion,''' ''Fanfic/TheLandOfWhatMightHaveBeen''
74
75->'''Inuyasha:''' Let me get this straight, you and I are supposed to be lovers?\
76'''Kagome:''' This is no time to get all shy!\
77'''Inuyasha:''' You actually think I'd hand over the jewel shards as a ransom to get you back?!\

81->'''Ra's Al Ghul:''' "Now, as to the matter of your wife. If I wished to use her against you, Detective, I can assure you of this: I would kidnap her. Oh, yes, I would. I would make certain that she was alive and that you knew it, but that you also knew that I had power over her. And thus I would have power over you. But I would not kill her. Not unless it presented great advantage to me, or unless all else was lost and it was the last stroke I could play. I promise you, Detective, I am far away from my last stroke."\
82'''Batman:''' "You may be closer than you think."\
83'''Ra's Al Ghul:''' "Death follows close behind us all, Detective. But in most cases, I am the one who pushes its hand. No. I am not lying to you. I had nothing to do with the attempt on your wife's life. Now, if someday your wife should be taken by brigands, there is the possiblity, and no more than that, that I may be behind it. That will be if I need your help, and you refuse a polite request. Should you perform that request, she will be freed unharmed. This would be done, certainly."
84-->-- ''Fanfic/DanceWithTheDemons''
85
86->'''Kira:''' Guess who I'm holding hostage.\
87'''[[spoiler:Raye Penber]]:''' ...No! You're holding ''her'' hostage? ("her" being [[spoiler: Naomi Misora, Penbar's fiancée]])\
88'''Kira:''' (smirks to self) That's right, and I'll kill her unless you do what I say.
89-->-- ''Manga/DeathNote''
90
91->'''Quex-Ul:''' "There's one more thing you should know sir. The humans found out about Kal-El from a human they believed discovered his identity and befriended. A female named Lois Lane."\
92'''Aethyr:''' "Befriended? Please tell me he hasn't mated with one of those humans."\
93'''General Zod:''' "Well done Quex. This could be important. Bring back this Lois Lane as well. Having a hostage should keep him in line should we need to."

99->While we wait to hear your response, I will continue my discussions with [[InsectoidAliens Lin]]. I have been enjoying her company greatly over these last weeks, and relish the chance to deal with her more closely. She bets that you will respond to this epistle [[FingerInTheMail while she still retains some of her headlegs]]. I remain unconvinced. The current rate is one headleg every two days we do not hear from you after today. Who will be proved right?
100-> I will rip them from her while she twitches and spits, do you understand? And within two weeks I will tear her carapace from her headbody and feed her living head to the rats. I will personally hold her down while they lunch.
101->[[FauxAffablyEvil I very much look forward to hearing from you soon]].
102->Yours sincerely,
103-->[[TheDon Motley]].

107-->--'''Jerry Dandridge''', ''Film/FrightNight1985''
108
109->'''Diaz:''' (''waving Jenny's "I Love You Daddy" Father's Day card in Matrix's face'') If you want your kid back then you gotta cooperate, right?\
110'''Matrix:''' Wrong. (''shoots Diaz'')

112
113->'''Visitor:''' "Very well, Danvers... We learned the disruptors can only cause pain to your [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} super-daughter]]... Her atoms are too compressed for any permanent damage...
