If you are evil enough, one way to turn someone to your side or motivate him to stay there is to threaten to hurt someone he cares about. This "friend" might indeed be the target's best friend or a love interest; however, if the target is the kind who tries to protect everyone, almost anyone may serve as a hostage. This trope is a signature tactic of a Bad Boss. It is also a form of Villainous Demotivator. Those who have their friends and loved ones under constant threat should they fail might be driven to greater efforts. In some cases, it may not be possible or feasible for the villains to harm the ones they are trying to "motivate." However, in the long run this situation can hardly be good for morale or loyalty to the Big Bad. The target may, and likely will, perform a Heel–Face Turn should the opportunity present itself (and it will) in a desperate bid to save their family and themselves from their circumstances. This can be a factor in convincing people that The Mob Boss Is Scarier than the police. Can be Played for Laughs if the "friend" is someone the hero doesn't like. Compare Even Mooks Have Loved Ones, where the Big Bad doesn't directly target his underlings' loved ones but merely shows callous disregard for them. If you actually punish his friend for his failure, that's a form of Revenge by Proxy. See also Blofeld Ploy. Compare and contrast with Guilt by Association Gag when someone is punished along with a group despite not actually having anything to do with the crime. Physical Fitness Punishment is a related trope, commonly associated with the military. |

In the first Robopon game, Dr. Zero traps Princess Darcy in a mirror because Prince Tail lost to him and to Cody. However, if Prince Tail wins (while Robopon is plugged into an cheating device such as Madcatz's GameShark, PDP's Code Breaker or Datel's Action Replay), he might rescue Princess Darcy from Dr. Zero and convince Cody to go back to his good natured ways (as shown on Game Winners). | |

The first Dune book has Na-Barron Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen attempt to assassinate his uncle Baron Vladimir Harkonnen by implanting a poison needle in one of his Sex Slaves. The Barron discovers this and makes the connection immediately. Since he is not going to harm Feyd-Rautha directly (as he is grooming him to be the next Barron of House Harkonnen) he has Feyd-Rautha go and kill his own favorite Sex Slaves. | |

A variation is inflicted on Laura Kinney AKA X-23, after her mother/creator helps her escape from the Facility. Laura is hiding out with her aunt Debbie and cousin Megan, when Kimura tracks her down and recaptures her. Kimura then intends to punish Laura for escaping by torturing her cousin and aunt to death and making Laura watch. She even gives Laura a Sadistic Choice as to whether Megan dies quickly or slowly, before summarily deciding to slowly push her finger into Megan's chest intending to tear out her heart. Fortunately, Laura manages to escape and rescue them but there's no question Kimura would have gone through with her threat. | |

During the final Two-Face mission in Batman: Arkham Knight, Two-Face states that every time a mook gets taken out by Batman, he's going to flip his coin: if it lands on tails, he'll execute the mook's family as punishment for failing to stop Batman. As you take out mooks, you can hear Two-Face calling out either "heads" or "tails". Presumably, however, it's subverted, as Batman arrests Two-Face just minutes later. | |

In season 5 of The Expanse, whenever a Belter faction agrees to join Marco Inaros's Free Navy, he insists on a crew exchange, sending on of his own trusted crewmembers to serve on a ship in that faction, while a member of that faction serves on Inaros's flagship Pella. The implication is that any betrayal or failure by that faction will result in the "hostage" paying for it. That's exactly what happens with Serge when Drummer betrays Inaros and saves the Rocinante. | |

In a double example, the White Collar episode "Front Man" has Neal being coerced to perform a series of tasks for a gangster, who threatens to kill his hostage (a young girl) if he refuses. While doing the first task, he is told that if he doesn't get the required information from a female travel agent in a certain amount of time, a sniper will kill her (the travel agent). You can even see a red dot appear on her head and clothing occasionally, reminding Neal of his deadline. | |

An implied example in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, where at one point, a Nazi soldier can be heard making a report to his superior. We can't hear the other end of the conversation, but the soldier mentions that his wife is pregnant, and that they already have two children. He then says that "it would kill [him] if anything happened to them." Read between the lines. | |

Southland: This happens in the episode "Derailed". Marta Ruiz, the matriarch of the Avenue drug gang, wants Janilla dead for agreeing to testify against her sons for a drive-by shooting. Marquece, Janilla's ex-boyfriend and a member of the Grape Street gang, after being taken into custody, reports to Marta that the police have her and that he doesn't know where she is. Marta reminds Marquece that the Grape Street gang owes Avenue money, and after Marquece promises to fill her in on Janilla's new location as soon as he finds out, Marta threatens to have Marquece's entire family killed if he screws up again. | |

Mongul tries the same threat on Superman, only to be informed by him that's he's too late. Mongul brushes it off, correctly guessing Superman would still be forced to fight if he threatened to blow up any inhabited world. | |

In Attack on Titan, Marley punishes disloyal Eldians, especially members of the Warrior unit, by not only having them turned into mindless titans and used as weapons of war, but also having their loved ones suffer the same fate. Colt and Falco barely avoided that fate after their uncle was outed as an Eldian restorationist, and Falco is warned that if he expresses misgivings about the Warrior program (particularly that his friend Gabi will have, at most, 13 years to live if she gets selected), he and his family could all be punished. | |

In The Dragon Revenant by Katharine Kerr, the head of slaves tells a tale of how when he was a boy, a slave in the house opposite killed his master. Every slave in the house was put to death, including mothers with babies-in-arms. That was one of the ways Bardekians controlled their large slave population. | |

That you have to pay rent for. And you'd better do a good job, because your base pay isn't enough to pay rent, food and heat, so you'll need to work for those bonuses. You will be fine.

In World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, you find letters after killing mage-hunter captains of races on your faction (a human and a troll, respectively), reading the letters becomes a very poignant Player Punch when it says that they've been forced to work for the blue flight under threat of their family's death. The reason why Vol'jin is hesitant to openly defy Garrosh is because with the Darkspear Trolls so close to Orgrimmar, it would be easy for Garrosh to send in troops to exact retribution on them, and Vol'jin advises Baine, who has similar positions to him and who is similarly close, to also be mindful of what he says. Vol'jin proves to be correct; he nearly gets killed by one of Garrosh's assassins while trying to prevent Garrosh from bringing back information on making sauroks, and Garrosh has the Echo Isles occupied. | |

Though it's never directly stated, it is heavily implied in a few episodes of X-Men: Evolution that the only reason why Colossus is a member of Magneto's Acolytes is because Magneto somehow threatened his family members who are still in Russia. | |

This is Keyser Soze’s entire strategy in The Usual Suspects. He makes it clear to each member of the group that “owe� him that if they don’t cooperate he will kill anyone they care about. He also makes a big point that to get ahead you don’t need to have more people or bigger weapons, just the will to do what the other guy isn’t willing to do. | |

In The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner's Dilemma, the members of the titular society are trapped by the Big Bad, Mr. Curtain, in a prison cell. Kate Wetherall escapes through a window because she's the only one of them who can, but she gets caught. When she is brought back, Mr. Curtain brings out the shiny silver gloves that he uses to inflict pain by delivering a powerful electric shock and uses them on Reynie. When Kate complains that this isn't fair because Reynie wasn't the one who escaped, Mr. Curtain responds that he decides what is fair and warns that if anyone acts up again, the punishment will be extended to all four of them. | |

Homestuck: Grimbark Jade tries to get Dave to comply with the Condesce's orders by kicking WV off a building and into some lava. It fails when Dave just swoops down and rescues him instead. Meanwhile Caliborn gets Dirk to draw weird pornography for him by threatening to murder his own sister (who is a friend of Dirk's) — though Dirk was perfectly willing to do it anyway. He then reveals the "shitty twist" to his diabolical game: he had already killed her. |

In Knights of the Old Republic this trope is used by Saul Karath when the party is captured and subsequently tortured for information. Seeing that the PC won't break, Saul switches to Bastila for male characters and Carth for females, and says you can end their suffering if you talk. You are given the option to talk, but doing so boosts your Dark Side points and is totally pointless since Saul says he already knew what you told him and promptly leaves the room with the torture machine still running on everyone. | |

Spy X Family: There's a fancomic by artist darazu1 featuring Anya and Damian as young adults (as in their early twenties) note an English dubbed version can be found in this video at the 3:34 mark. In the comic, Damian has been unable to sleep ever since Anya went missing a month before, when he's called into his father's home office, where he sees Anya handcuffed and wearing patient’s scrubs. Donavan explains that Anya is an escaped government experiment that's been recaptured after years on the run, and he has been unable to force her to use her Telepathy to further his goals. Since they know each other since childhood, Donovan tells Damian that he'll be in charge of making sure Anya uses her talents to spy on his foes. If Anya disobeys or provides bad intel, Damian will be punished for her failures, and if Anya escapes, then Donovan will have Damian killed. They agree to Donovan’s terms, and go to Damian’s private villa where he tells her she can stay until they think of a way for her to be reunited with her family. | |

His "lover" Garannon is actually someone he has been sexually abusing from childhood on, and who submits to this abuse because he fears for the safety of his family. | |

The children's book The Whipping Boy is based on the 15th century real-life practice of punishing a companion to a prince as the royal line was considered divine and only another from the royal line could do the punishing on pain of death. In real life, a whipping boy would be a lifelong companion to the prince so that their emotional bond would make the whipping a real punishment for the prince. In the book, the whipping boy was chosen to start a new life in the castle with the young prince, who was a Royal Brat. This trope is played with, however, as when the two are kidnapped, the whipping boy is more educated than the prince, so believing the prince to be the whipping boy, he is the one punished. | |

The The Dark Knight fic Messed Up employs this. The Joker makes a rule that every time Rose argues or rebels, her friend Sparrow gets hurt. This is mainly used to break Rose, as she is very protective of those younger than her, which conflicts with her instinctual rebellious stance. Sparrow is not only younger than Rose, but suffers from anxiety disorder and is extremely shy. | |

The movie Money Train revolves around John and Charlie, foster brothers who work as cops in New York City's transit system. Near the start of the movie Charlie, who has a gambling problem, loses big in a poker game with a criminal named Mr. Brown, who's implied to be a Loan Shark, and winds up $15,000 dollars in debt. A little more than halfway through the film John clears out his savings and gives Charlie enough money to pay Mr. Brown back... except that while taking the train to go see Mr. Brown, a random pickpocket takes the money from Charlie. Naturally Mr. Brown doesn't believe Charlie, and his men begin to give Charlie a nasty beating. Charlie is so low down at this point (having recently lost his job, the woman he was infatuated with, his brother's savings, etc.) that he accepts and even possibly encourages the goons to kill him. Mr. Brown sees that hurting or killing Charlie isn't going to get him paid, so he has his goons stop, and then tells Charlie that if he doesn't get paid, Mr. Brown will start going after John instead. This gets Charlie so desperate that he decides to attempt a Train Job, to steal from the special security train that takes in cash revenue from the transit system and might as well be a rolling bank vault. | |

In Die Hard, John McClane is messing up Hans Gruber's plans. John's wife's coworker (whom he met once) tries to get in Gruber's good graces by attempting to talk his "friend" McClane into giving himself up. McClane, fully aware of what kind of a person Hans Gruber is, tries to get the guy to admit he's lying but to no avail. Gruber smiles, shoots the guy for his trouble, and then tells McClane that even if he was lying, he can start putting bullets into each and every hostage "until I find someone you care about". | |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In the episode "Paradise", Sisko and O'Brien become trapped on a planet with a human colony built by the crew of a ship that was rendered inoperable due to some sort of Negative Space Wedgie. The leader of the colony is an Evil Luddite who rebuffs any and all suggestions of trying to get their technology to work and, when she catches O'Brien trying to find a way back onto a runabout in orbit, orders Sisko to be placed in a heat box, reasoning that he was responsible as O'Brien's commanding officer. In "Wrongs Darker Than Death or Night", Dukat tells Kira that her mother did not die when Kira was young, but left to become Dukat's lover. It turned out that Kira Meru was one of a number of Bajoran women selected to "work" as comfort women in return for food and medical supplies for their families, who were already suffering under Cardassian occupation and whose lives looked likely to get worse as the war progressed. |

The X-Wing series novel "Wedge's Gamble" reveals that not only was Captain Needa executed by Darth Vader for allowing the Milennium Falcon to escape, but that several of his family members disappeared as well in the following weeks. Needa's cousin Virar - who was in the Imperial Academy at the time — managed to survive the purge but was given a low priority dead-end assignment. | |

In Under Siege 2: Dark Territory, the bad guy uses this tactic to coerce the two intelligence officers (who are having an affair) into giving up their passcodes to the Grazer 1 satellite. He threatens to stick a red-hot needle into the other one's eye, describing in graphic detail what it would do to the eye in question. He kills them anyway after they give up the codes. | |

In General Protection Fault, after Nick-Prime sees that Nega-Nick is lying to him about many things about the Nega-verse, including the real reason his plan to have Nick-Prime build Project Velociraptor for his MUTex, Nega-Nick shows him Nega-Ki, strapped to a torture device, and tortures her until he decides to cooperate, saying Nick-Prime can't know for certain that it isn't Ki-Prime he's torturing. Nick-Prime gives in, and Nega-Nick then tells Nick-Prime that one prisoner will be tortured to death in front of him for every hour he wastes. To make matters worse, it is impossible for Nick-Prime to succeed at his task due to Pandemonium's interference. | |

Slade uses this tactic in Teen Titans (2003) to (temporarily and forcibly) convert Robin over to his side. He infects the rest of the titans with nano bots and threatens to kill them if Robin doesn't become his apprentice and follow his every order. Robin manages to Take a Third Option via injecting himself with nanobots, badly harming Slade's pride and forcing him to release everyone. | |

In the film Full Metal Jacket, the first part of the film is about the training of the new recruits in the US Marine Corps. One of them, nicknamed "Gomer Pyle," can't seem to improve in his training, so Gunnery Sergeant Hartmann stops punishing him and starts punishing everyone else. The other recruits take it out on him in the infamous "blanket party" scene, where they pin him to his bunk with a blanket and beat the crap out of him with bars of soap wrapped in towels. After this, Pyle starts to show improvement in his training, but also starts to develop a psychotic breakdown, ultimately culminating in the murder of Hartmann and his own suicide. | |

This is all part of the Talosians' plan to make him breed with her, because it causes Pike to feel empathy for Vina over her unjust punishment. | |

One Piece: In the Water Seven arc, CP9 makes Robin help them obtain the blueprints of Pluton by threatening the lives of the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates. In Luffy's flashback arc, Sabo's father forces him to come home by threatening Ace and Luffy's lives, and tries to get him to deny his involvement with them in that same way, but ends up having to bribe the official. In the Fishman Island arc, Hody Jones claims that he has a kraken's brother hostage and will kill him if he refuses to fight against Luffy. In a flashback in the Arlong arc, Nami is told at one point that if she doesn't do her work properly, Arlong will bring in and kill a villager in front of her like she did with Bellemere. He also gives her an ultimatum midway through the battle for Arlong Park; come back to him and he will spare everyone except Zoro and Sanji, or refuse and watch her entire village die. |

Fire & Blood: With three enemy armies about to lay siege to King's Landing and depose him, King Aegon II tells Lord Corlys Velaryon, one of the few military commanders he has left, that if he and his son fail to defeat the incoming attackers, Aegon will have Corlys's granddaughter Baela (who Aegon had been keeping hostage) executed in retaliation. Unfortunately, Corlys responds to the threat by joining a conspiracy of like-minded nobles who promptly assassinate Aegon and negotiate a truce with the enemy commanders. During the regency of Aegon III, he gets a Drill Sergeant Nasty (of the kind who much prefers making his charges suffer or die rather than bothering to teach them) who is faced with a problem when Aegon is mysteriously unenthusiastic about being forced to do stuff he doesn't want to do by such an unpleasant man, since he can't harm the king in any way. So instead, he harms the king's best friend Gaemon Palehair. |

Well, he didn't actually kill Juan Corrida personally, but he did hire De Killer to kill him. Phoenix is forced to decide between getting Engarde acquitted, in which case an innocent young woman is found guilty and executed, or getting Engarde declared guilty, in which case Maya is killed. The only way out is to Take a Third Option and get de Killer to betray Engarde. | |

My Immortal sees such a threat turn very strange later on. In Voldemort's first appearance, he tells Enoby to kill Harry "Vampire" Potter, warning her that if she doesn't, he will kill Draco, Enoby's boyfriend. Much later on, Voldemort reappears, this time in the guise of Darth Valer, and declares that he'll kill both Enoby and Draco for her failure, but when she begs him not to, he changes the terms, so instead Enoby has to kill Vampire "or I shall kill him anyway". | |

Horatio Hornblower: Captain Sawyer gets angry at Lt Hornblower because he informs him that he's shortening sails (perfectly according to the orders), but Sawyer believes he should have asked for permission. He decides that he will teach Hornblower a lesson by getting men from his division punished. The last man to get down from the mast gets flogged. This causes panic and a lethal accident, as one poor sailor falls down. Horatio, Archie, Styles and Matthews must scrub him off the deck, and Sawyer then orders them to toss him overboard without a funeral. | |

In Yu-Gi-Oh!, for the climactic battle of the Marik arc, Evil!Marik makes the board a setup which is basically this plus a Sadistic Choice. He pulls Yugi's soul and Normal!Marik's soul out of their respective bodies and hangs them up in the air. When the dueler loses life points, bits of the other's body are removed, and the loser's normal side vanishes. He loses when normal Marik regains control of the body and surrenders the match, erasing him instead. | |

In Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "Beyond The Furthest Star" the entity that has taken over the ship uses this technique to force the crew to obey. Instances involve turning an Agony Beam on Spock to get Kirk to surrender the navigation console and telling Scotty that if he attempts sabotage while conducting repairs, all the rest of the bridge crew will be killed. | |

Maria Campbell of the Astral Clocktower: When it comes time to teach Katarina etiquette for real, Maria puts Shana, one of her young wards who has been learning etiquette on her own, in charge of her education. She explains to Katarina that rather than punishing her when she makes mistakes, Shana will lose dessert privileges. Katarina is horrified. Of course, Maria doesn't tell her that Shana will retain her normal dessert, the only thing in danger is the extra dessert she earned by agreeing to teach Katarina. | |

The Handmaid's Tale: True to totalitarian regimes, Offred is scared to join the resistance against the fundamentalist Gilead even though she hates her monitored life without freedom and would love to fight against it. She fears that if she is arrested, something bad might happen to her daughter (who she knows lives) or her husband (who might or might not be alive). It's also mentioned in the epilogue and historical notes: the scholars mention that the Gileadean regime was not above such drastic measures and actually used them to discourage adverse publicity in foreign countries from refugees. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Anya wants to undo a wish she granted as a vengeance demon that killed an entire fraternity. D'Hoffryn, her boss, says it will require the death of a vengeance demon and Anya offers herself, as a way to repent for her sins. Then D'Hoffryn summons up Anya's friend Halfrek and casually kills her. Invoked as a threat in "Lovers Walk". Spike, distraught over his failed Unholy Matrimony, kidnaps Willow and Xander and forces Willow to make him a love spell. Made oddly terrifying by how heart-broken and depressed Spike is. |

Ace Attorney: In Case 5 of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, the Big Bad Damon Gant forces the accused Lana to work for him under the threat of her little sister Ema getting prosecuted for a crime she thinks she's committed. In the final case of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, Maya gets kidnapped by Shelly de Killer in order to force Phoenix to get Matt Engarde a "Not Guilty" verdict, when Engarde was really guilty. Well, he didn't actually kill Juan Corrida personally, but he did hire De Killer to kill him. Phoenix is forced to decide between getting Engarde acquitted, in which case an innocent young woman is found guilty and executed, or getting Engarde declared guilty, in which case Maya is killed. The only way out is to Take a Third Option and get de Killer to betray Engarde. |

Star Wars Legends The X-Wing series novel "Wedge's Gamble" reveals that not only was Captain Needa executed by Darth Vader for allowing the Milennium Falcon to escape, but that several of his family members disappeared as well in the following weeks. Needa's cousin Virar - who was in the Imperial Academy at the time — managed to survive the purge but was given a low priority dead-end assignment. When Corran Horn is in an Imperial prison, he's goaded by a prisoner who is Imperial but was put there for his failures. Corran almost starts a fist fight, but another prisoner stops him, explaining that if they beat up any Imperial prisoners, then the guards will beat up a senior Alliance prisoner whom the prisoners all respect. Later, in the novel "The Bacta War" Imperial Intelligence director Ysanne Isard targets the family members of freighter crewers who surrender to the Rogues, and when Sair Yonka and his star drestroyer defect to the Rogues begins killing the families of the crew members she could get her hands on. Horrorfyingly, she reveals this was not the first time she has killed families of Imperial soldiers when the soldiers defect or fail her. |

While the affected characters aren’t villains, the slave owner doing this trope certainly is in the Firefly fic Freedom To The Free. Simon, Kaylee River and Wash are enslaved and Simon takes a lot of physical and sexual abuse because the overseers keep threatening Wash and Kaylee if he refuses. Kaylee is threatened with rape if he won’t service the owner and he’s ordered to do a castration despite it being against his oath with a threat to do it without anesthesia and do the same to Wash. He’s also ordered to kill the injured Wash if Wash doesn’t wake up after being beaten, or Kaylee and River will die. Fortunately Wash does wake up. By the time the Big Damn Heroes come to the rescue, he’s recovering physically but River says he’s broken like her after he has a nightmare involving a lot of screaming and Jayne needing to shoot the door open to get to him. | |

A particularly brutal version happens to Yuri in Angel Beats!. When she was younger, some crooks broke into her house while her parents were away. They then took her 3 younger siblings, and told her that they would kill one of her siblings every 10 minutes if she didn't give them something valuable. She tries but fails, and the cops arrive 30 minutes later... | |

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows: He kills Irene Adler and sends men to kill Watson and Mary, even after Holmes personally tells him that Watson will no longer be a part of his investigation. Of course, this ends up biting the bad guy in the end, as Watson ends up stopping his assassin, which he wouldn't be doing if he was still on his honeymoon. It's also the same threat that ends up forcing Holmes to grab Moriarty and jump into Reichenbach Falls. | |

The Mentalist: The new director of the CBI, Madeline Hightower, calls in Jane and Lisbon on her first day. She tells Jane that he's "golden," he can do whatever he wants with no repercussions. Then she tells Lisbon that if Jane does anything against CBI policy, Lisbon will be punished (since she's his supervisor). Jane doesn't take this well. She claims it's because Jane is more valuable, but given all of the factors involved as well as the fact that Hightower is later shown to be incredibly shrewd and cunning, it seems more than likely that she was intentionally invoking this trope, knowing that would be the only way she could keep Jane in line. | |
