So a character has been busted, caught, kidnapped, jailed ... whatever. They now have to be contained somewhere, and what better choice than a transparent cell with zero privacy? Being imprisoned in such a manner, functionally on exhibit for the captors, may be a demeaning moment, or an opportunity to show how self-assured the character is. Possibly a result of the character falling victim to The Collector. A Poisonous Captive might take advantage of the transparency to communicate with their captors. Overlaps with Human Popsicle if the character is rendered immobile. That said, having one or more walls be see-through does have practical advantages for a jailer - if the guards can casually look into the room at any time, then it becomes a lot harder for the prisoner to do things like make shivs, attempt to saw through the window bars or dig an escape tunnel without getting caught. This trope comes into action when a character is deliberately placed within a transparent cage to hold them. This transparent material can be glass, another material, or Some Kind of Force Field. If only one wall is transparent, then it's a Force-Field Door or a material version thereof. Often comes with a side-order of Nobody Poops. Compare Cardboard Prison and Crystal Prison. Examples |

The Sherlock episode "The Final Problem" reveals that Sherlock has a sister who is housed in a maximum-security psychiatric facility, inside a glass chamber. Cue a Window Love scene between the two siblings. She actually uses this trope to her advantage, setting the scene to look like it's in play, when actually the glass pane isn't there at all, giving her the chance to surprise Sherlock when he thinks he's physically safe from her. | |

In the Totally Spies! episode "Future Shock", the Spies' adult counterparts have a version of this that can be carried like a suitcase (by two people) and can still fit a prisoner inside, useful for both arrest and holding of prisoners. (Mandy is apprehended this way, but unfortunately, it does nothing to quiet her.) | |

Jake 2.0 features one of these, a glass-walled holding cell (with no facilities) in the middle of an empty room with constant surveillance. Its use in the series emphasizes that the characters held there (various terrorists) are dangerous not because of any special Jake-style abilities but because of the threat they pose to national security. (Ironically, Jake's nemesis DuMont, who could have used special looking after, ends up in a regular prison, which he easily worms his way out of.) | |

In Clockstoppers, the corporation responsible for creating the hypertime watch keeps an accomplice who attempted to escape earlier in a prison cell made of glass in the center of the lab floor. He was in hyper-time, meaning that the onlookers couldn't see him, but he wrote disdainful messages on the walls of his cell that could be seen after spending a week in hypertime and aging prematurely. | |

Abomination is being held in a glass-walled cell inside a larger prison facility to contain him if he transforms into his monstrous alter-ego. The cell resembles the Hulk containment cell from The Avengers (2012) and fills a similar function. Amusingly, when Blonsky willingly transforms to make a point, he bangs his head on the cell's ceiling. |

In The Avengers (2012), the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier contains one designed as a Tailor-Made Prison for the Hulk that can be dropped 30,000-odd feet out of the bottom of the ship at the push of a button. They use it to contain Loki. | |

Snow of MÄR interestingly averts this trope; though she encases herself in ice when she first appears, it's made quite clear that she can only stay in her ice prison for a couple of hours before she freezes to death. | |

Gor: In Kur of Gor, Tarl Cabot is imprisoned in what the narrator calls a "glassine" tube. The narrator means "glass-like", but that's not what glassine means. | |

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law reveals that Emil Blonsky a.k.a. Abomination is being held in a glass-walled cell inside a larger prison facility to contain him if he transforms into his monstrous alter-ego. The cell resembles the Hulk containment cell from The Avengers (2012) and fills a similar function. Amusingly, when Blonsky willingly transforms to make a point, he bangs his head on the cell's ceiling. | |

Titan A.E. features Cale Tucker being held in the brig of the Drej mothership. The entire cell is made of translucent energy. Cale is able to escape when he figures out how to manipulate the energy to open a temporary hole through it. | |
