Sure, you can build a fancy Tailor-Made Prison for when your Omnicidal Maniac is hidden away, but what happens when you have to move the little bastard? He can't be thrown in the back seat of a black-and-white cruiser with just a uniformed officer for supervision. No, he's got to be shipped in shackles. This trope is about taking extreme measures to secure a prisoner and/or their intended route during transport. Simple handcuffs and a couple of escorts won't suffice. This is when the guards feel they must chain the prisoner hand and foot, wrap him in a straightjacket, secure him to a hand truck, give him a Hannibal mask to prevent biting, cart him around in an armored vehicle full of strapping young guards toting high-caliber weapons, along with a convoy of SUVs, or all of the above. If he has superpowers, expect the guards' weapons to be loaded with the appropriate Kryptonite Factor, and/or the shackles to be specially made to negate his powers. If he's a Manipulative Bastard notorious for talking his way out of being captured or manipulating his captors, he may even be gagged. This may be to prevent the prisoner's allies on the outside from pulling off a daring Inescapable Ambush to rescue during transit or to keep him from contacting such allies, but more likely it serves the same purpose as a stationary oubliette: to show the audience that this guy is a One-Man Army so tough that it takes a quarter-ton of purpose-built restraints to hold him, or so dangerous that his captors want to ensure that the odds of him escaping are exactly zero. Of course, these restraints prove ineffective as often as not, especially since most villains realize that escaping from a few chains while under constant armed surveillance is still easier than getting out of their usual super-maximum prison cell. Compare Tailor-Made Prison, which refers to custom-made prisons for similarly dangerous prisoners. If the prisoner fights while still restrained, that's With My Hands Tied. Has nothing to do with (relation)shipping. Examples |

In the opening of Batman: Arkham Asylum, the Joker's wrapped in a straitjacket and chained to a hand-truck for delivery to the asylum. The guards seem to wish he was gagged as well. Batman later gets the same treatment in a fear-gas induced hallucination. | |

In Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Grindelwald starts the film being shipped from New York to Europe for trial. His hands are shackled, his wand confiscated, his tongue removed (apparently, he's so persuasive that multiple guards assigned to him have defected), locked in a flying carriage with at least three other wizards training their wands on him at all times, and said carriage has magical locks that run around almost the entire doorframe. Two other wizards follow this carriage on brooms for backup. Grindelwald being Grindelwald, it's not nearly enough. He's not even in the carriage. | |

So is Bart when he's accused of stealing the church collection money in "Bart's Girlfriend". Marge even lampshades how excessive the punishment is. |

Gotham: Mad Bomber Ian Hargave is shipped in shackles when he is being transported from Blackgate to St. Mark's Psychiatric Hospital in the episode "Harvey Dent". Jeremiah Valeska also gets this treatment at the end of the fourth season, when the GCPD are preparing him to be transported to Arkham. Unfortunately, even putting him in full-bodied restraints reminiscent of Hannibal Lector's doesn't prevent him from escaping, because before he can be locked away in Arkham, he's rescued by invincible ninjas. |

Invoked with Dizzy in The New Guy, who is delivered by a sympathetic prison staff to his new school in a straightjacket and mask as a Shout-Out to Green (and, by extension, Lecter). The whole thing is a sham to convince his new peers that he's a formidable badass, rather a reversal of his former image. | |

100 Cupboards: A heroic example appears when Uncle Frank, Dotty, Penelope, James, Isa and Monmouth are kidnapped by the Emperor's soldiers. Even the regular humans are transported shackled to posts in the hold of the galley they're aboard, and Monmouth is knocked unconscious, bound hand and foot, stuffed into a sack made of kelp to contain his magic and hung from a ceiling beam. With good reason, as it turns out. Eli and Fat Frank are also briefly transported in kelp sacks by Caleb and by wizards, respectively. |

Total Drama: In "No Pain, No Game", when the muscular Eva is voted off for the second time (on the day she returned, no less), she becomes very hostile and has to be tied in a straitjacket before she can be shipped off on the Boat of Losers. Delinquent Duncan is brought in as a classic competitor in "Grand Chef Auto" against his will. He's wheeled in tied to a trolley with a mask over his mouth, but has to be released so he can perform the demo. Of course, he immediately makes a run for it laughing madly and Chris admits this one is on him. The kindhearted but strong DJ is brought in as a classic competitor in "Eat, Puke and Be Wary" against his will. He's wheeled in tied to a trolley with a blindfold over his eyes to taste and judge the dishes the current campers prepare. It works only until he sees what the mostly-alive dishes are, at which point he breaks open the ropes and runs away screaming. In "I Love You, I Love You Knots", Rodney antagonizes Clucky by boasting that he eats six eggs a day. Chris prevents Clucky from attacking Rodney then and there, but as soon as the controller to shock the Pimâpotew Kinosewak comes within reach, Clucky dives for it and smashes the button in crazed fury. As Clucky is no longer trustworthy, she is wheeled off tied to a trolley and with a mask over her beak. A straitjacket hangs over her neck, but doesn't actually hold her wings. It's implied she gets turned into dinner that evening. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: At the end of The Avengers (2012), Loki is shown in chains for his transport back to Asgard, in addition to a muzzle. In Thor: The Dark World, Loki is escorted to his trial in heavy handcuffs, legcuffs and a metal collar interconnected with chains that are also wrapped around his waist, and is accompanied by ten Einherjar, elite Asgardian warriors holding those chains. With the God of Mischief who has just tried to conquer Earth, you can't be too sure. In Avengers: Endgame, when the team uses time travel to go back to 2012, we see exactly when Loki was shackled. Thor put the muzzle on him simply because he would not shut up. |

He's from a species that suffer from regular bouts of Hyper-Rage so they must be restrained, or they'll kill someone. That doesn't make D'Argo happy about it however, and he has them surgically removed in Season 3. | |

Garland Green from Con Air is introduced wearing similar restraints as Lecter. When he's taken onto the plane, there's trepidation among at least one of the other criminals about actually taking them off. | |

Zig-zagged in Prison Break. Linc is usually moved around like this, but sometimes the guards go easy on the shackles because he's a good prisoner or because they want him to break out. | |

An episode of Batman: The Animated Series opens with Killer Croc being transported to prison with his arms and legs in shackles. He escapes by biting through the chains and uses their remains as evidence that he was a prisoner in a freak show. After Batman recaptures him, he is taken away chained, straight-jacketed and muzzled. | |

My Hero Academia: Once they're defeated by a hero, the more powerful villains are loaded into a heavy steel capsule referred to as the 'Iron Maiden' for transit to Tartarus. There are also solid metal 'straitjackets' used to hold villains still; in the case of exceptionally powerful and belligerent villains, both are used simultaneously. At the end of the Shie Hassaikai arc, Overhaul is seen being transported to the villain hospital strapped to a gurney with his hands sealed inside a special shackle, designed to prevent him from using his (touch-based) deconstruction/reconstruction quirk. The gurney is kept in the back of an armored truck escorted by several police cars and a hero. |

Daredevil (2015): Frank Castle is transported to the courtroom this way. Even when he's in hospital there are excessive precautions — an entire floor of the hospital is blocked off for him, guarded by ESU officers with carbines, bags have to be searched twice to be absolutely certain no one's smuggling in a weapon, and there's a "do not cross" line around his bed marked with red tape, to which bed Castle is both strapped and shackled. | |

Assault on Precinct 13 (1976): Napoleon Wilson (who is said to have killed six people for reasons that are never revealed) is shackled for the ride on the prison bus taking him to Death Row, and the Warden trips him up just to Kick the Dog. A few minutes later Wilson returns the favor by tripping up the Warden with his chain. He doesn't get out of his shackles until halfway through the movie. In the final scene, Lieutenant Bishop refuses to allow Wilson to be handcuffed and insists they walk out of Precinct 13 together. | |

One Piece: Captured pirates and other convicted criminals are transported in this manner to Impel Down. Normally they stop at shackles (Since the cuffs are made out of a mineral that can zap superpowers), but when Usopp and Franky are caught by the CP9, they are carried to the Sea Train in burlap sacks. When Don Quixote Doflamingo is arrested, the Navy makes sure to wrap him in chains. The ship taking him to prison has him bound to the floor of his holding cell. When Big Mom passes out while rampaging through the Udon Prison Factory, Queen immediately has her wrapped in hundreds of Seastone chains and then injected with at least a hundred shots of animal tranquilizer before taking her Kaido's main base. |

In the second Miles Taylor and the Golden Cape book, Rise of the Robot Army, Lenore is always escorted between her cell and the cafeteria by two of General Breckenridge's robot soldiers, and in chains that only allow her enough elbow room to walk and feed herself. This is because she has some kind of superpower. | |

In The Boondock Saints, Il Duce (pictured above) is moved from his cell to the ground floor for a parole hearing. He is cuffed hand and foot, chained to a rolling platform, and wheeled down to the parole board. The entire prison is put on high-alert, with shotgun-wielding guards on every floor, all to move one man down a few flights of stairs. Once he's there, they even put him inside a metal cage to protect the parole board. All this serves to establish this guy as perhaps the biggest badass of the movie. Makes you wonder why they even thought about parole...note It's more or less stated that Papa Joe Yakavetta was pulling strings and getting him out for the purpose of dealing with Rocco, who he thinks is behind the killings of his men that the MacManus brothers have been carrying out. | |

In several issues of Daredevil, Bullseye is shown being transported in this fashion, with his hands bound to the point that he couldn't grab anything if he wanted to, and his feet bound so close that he can barely walk. Later issues (after he's demonstrated that he retains the ability to kill guards even bound up like that) show him with bound hands, feet, a muzzle over his face, and tightly bound to a furniture mover's hand cart. | |
