The Big Damn Hero go into full-rescue operation to save the Victim of the Week. After much hardship, they prevail...only to learn that the victim didn't want to be rescued. A few possible reasons:
The most common variant is, the captive has a personal grudge against their would-be liberator(s) and would rather die than be indebted to them.
Alternatively, they might just consider being obliged to their rescuer to be more trouble than escaping without their help or even continued captivity would have been.
The captive, for reasons only their brooding self could comprehend, was ready to welcome misery or death, perhaps believing that they deserve to suffer for past misdeeds.
The captive got themself caught on purpose in order to execute a plan, which the Big Damn Hero have now ruined for their side.
The captive is being held as bait for the rescuers, and prefers to face the danger themself rather than put them at risk.
Alternatively, even if the captor didn't specifically anticipate a rescue attempt, they are likely to quickly turn it to their own advantage.
Captivity was actually rather pleasant (if only for a certain kind of person), or even a version of Fluffy Cloud Heaven.
The "captive" was actually a willing guest in the first place, or even not in any such situation at all. The rescuer was misinformed, manipulated, or simply misunderstood the situation.
An escape is just what the captor want as part of their larger plan, and the captive wants to thwart that by staying put.
The intervention caused more damage than the lack of it, as the heroes have destroyed something that will now cause the base to blow up — Nice Job Breaking It, Hero.
Or, worse, the captive had nearly had an agreement for a peaceful resolution with the apparent villain (perhaps the Monster Is a Mommy or otherwise not really evil), and the heroes' attack restarts the conflict and convinces the foe that peace is impossible.
The captive was already getting away or even turning the tables on their captor without help, and the "rescuer" just screwed that up by barging in. Even worse if the rescuers get in danger themselves and the captive has to get the rescuer out of it.
Alternatively, the captive is a Boisterous Weakling or similar who just claims so, while their rescuer roll their eyes and reply "yeah, sure".
The rescuee actually requested to be held captive No Matter How Much I Beg in order to prevent some bad outcome (perhaps an involuntary transformation or loss of self-control), which will now occur as a result of freeing the captive.
The Terrifying Rescuer and/or Destructive Saviour seems more dangerous than staying safely in prison.
The rescuer is actually a villain, and they are oblivious to that fact. The captor is actually heroic, and the captive knows this, which is why they are siding with them to begin with. The villain just has skewed ideas of who is good and bad, so, by trying to be "heroic," they show their true colors as the horrible person that they are.
Whatever the reason, the "victim" is severely pissed off at the unwanted heroes who are left stunned by their ungratefulness. No one goes home happy this time.
When the unwillingly saved party is a Rival or Worthy Opponent, the situation becomes an Embarrassing Rescue.
If the person did want to be rescued, just not by a specific person or in a specific manner, then that's Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like.
See also Not Brainwashed and The Victim Must Be Confused. May be triggered by Stockholm Syndrome. Compare with Mistaken for Imprisonment.
Contrast with Lotus-Eater Machine, where the "wanted captivity" is only an illusion and clearly the wrong choice, and Unwanted Revival, where the "captivity" is death.

A "peaceful resolution ruined" example occurs in the episode of Aladdin: The Series named "The Garden of Evil". The plant-like sorcerer Arbutus kidnaps princess Jasmine, but her kind and caring demeanor almost manages to alleviate his hatred to humans. Unfortunately, just before his oncoming reformation, Aladdin storms his castle.

Fell, from Pact, was Born into Slavery to an Incarnation of Conquest, like two generations of his family before him. The only means of resistance his family were permitted was to become Death Seekers, being as reckless as they could in fulfilling their goals, in ways that might cost them their lives or hurt Conquest as much as it benefited him. However, when Blake Thorburn challenges Conquest to a contest, he selects Fell as one of his champions, forcing Conquest to temporarily release Fell. This is much to the displeasure of both Fell and Conquest, and Fell knows that he'll be punished harshly for his perceived defiance when Blake is crushed—and he knows that Blake has drastically misunderstood the local power dynamics, so he'll find no allies. Fell becomes a Sour Supporter of Blake's contest, admitting that much as he hates the rescue he knows that this is the best chance his family will have of being free.

In The Beginning, a Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) comic series, Sally Acorn attempts to uncover the secret to undoing Roboticizer technology using boots specially designed by Rotor. She set up a 'negotiation' with Robotnik, fully expecting him to betray her and roboticize her. Naturally (or rather unnaturally) he delivers, saying that 'machines can't make or break promises' after Sally accuses him of doing the latter, keeping up the act. Sonic, Tails and Antoine arrive on the scene before she is put through the machine however and 'rescue' her. Back at Knothole, Rotor asks her how it went. She promptly explains what happened to him, with Sonic and his compatriots very confused at her displeasure. She storms off after Rotor tells them what the boots were for.

Luo Binghe in Lotus Seeds finds his disappeared Shizun within the Lotus Eaters' realm and abducts him in spite of Shen Qingqiu's desperate pleas to be left there, since he will die outside. As his Shizun dies in his arms barely a few seconds after the rescue, Luo Binghe realizes that Shen Qingqiu's fears were quite justified.

In The Rising of the Shield Hero, Motoyasu frees Raphtalia from her slavery to Naofumi. The trouble is Raphtalia genuinely wants to be Naofumi's slave because of how well he treats her, and because it also grants her legal protection due to having a master that's one of the Four Heroes. As a result, Raphtalia immediately lays into Motoyasu for his short-sighted, self-righteous, Holier Than Thou behavior, saying that he never thinks anything he does through, and is smart enough to realize that Motoyasu only "freed" Raphtalia because she was a slave, refusing to even ask if she needed his help. Then, Raphtalia hits him with a "The Reason You Suck" Speech by saying Naofumi can train her, heal her, and protect her. Raphtalia finishes by asking Motoyasu that if Naofumi can do all that, can he do that too, considering that owning slaves is apparently beneath him? It shocks Motoyasu so much that he remains in Stunned Silence until Naofumi and Raphtalia leave.

Bleach:
Rukia doesn't want to be rescued from her impending execution. She thinks she deserves to die for killing her mentor, Kaien Shiba, decades earlier (even though he was possessed by a Hollow and effectively already dead). Ichigo doesn't care. Nor do numerous other characters who aid (or in some cases, attempt to aid) in Rukia's rescue. She also fears for the safety of those attempting to save her.
Ichigo seems to have really bad luck with this trope. Pretty much every person he's 'saved' hasn't wanted it for certain reasons. In the movies, Hitsugaya says something along the lines of "I didn't ask for your help and I didn't want it," and while Senna does want to be saved, she doesn't seem to want Ichigo to do it. (Until she realizes her death would be The End of the World as We Know It.) Also, in the Hueco Mundo arc, Orihime thanks Ichigo for saving her, but then goes on to say she'll stay kidnapped so she has the chance the erase the Hougyoku. She's probably one of the more thankful captives.

In "Super Harry!" on Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs, Harry tries to save his sister, Sam, from an alien only to be told to go play somewhere else. He tries to blow away some leaves that his Nana raked up, only to upset her because she wanted them in the pile. He tries to carry groceries that his mother had well in hand only to end up tearing the bag and causing her to lose her car keys. He laments to his dinosaurs that he bets that other heroes don't have this problem.

A Certain Magical Index: Mikoto met Touma when he "saved" her from a bunch of delinquents who were hitting on her, not knowing that she is more than capable of defending herself. She doesn't appreciate it. He later pulls the same stunt (in the first novel/episode), this time trying to save the delinquents from inevitably getting zapped. Mikoto is even more angry this time because, as revealed in A Certain Scientific Railgun, she was actually playing along with them in order to get information about the Level Upper out of them.

Green Arrow in The Dark Knight Returns hates Superman for saving him from being killed by a bomb, due to the fact that the only way Superman could save him involved Arrow losing one of his arms, rendering him practically useless as a vigilante. As payback, he agrees to help Batman fight against Superman when they square off in Crime Alley during the climax.

lonelygirl15 has done it a few times, as the heroes rescue girls whose blood is "trait positive" to keep them from being used in a mysterious ceremony which will result in their death. These girls tend to have no idea they have anything to worry about and are very hostile to their rescuers until they either escape or are convinced. This is subverted when one girl actually turns out to be trait negative, meaning the heroes' actions weren't even an unwilling rescue but a plain and simple kidnapping.

A 'misunderstanding' example in the third season Castle episode" One Life to Lose", where Castle believes his mother is being threatened with a knife by the man he believes is the murderer. When he and Beckett burst in on them, though, it turns out the knife the suspect was holding was only a plastic prop, and they were acting out a scene. (Castle's mother picked out a suitable apology in a catalog later that night.

An interesting case in Naruto. Naruto and Sakura are continually attempting to rescue Sasuke. Not only does he not want in the slightest to be rescued and dragged back to Konoha, he usually attempts to kill his friends for their troubles. Not that they give up. When Sasuke rescues himself from the imminent danger (by killing the then-Big Bad), Naruto and Sakura go on trying to rescue him from himself. The current method seems to be by either killing him or by fighting him and having both sides simultaneously destroy each other.

In the culmination of the Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector, Koichi Azusawa is left dumbfound by the fact that Sibyl, which he was chasing after all this time, rejected him. Sibyl then asks the Public Safety Bureau inspector at the scene, Shindou Arata, to "prosecute" Azusawa. Arata is absolutely opposed to this idea and scores an ideological victory, forcing Sibyl to reconsider the execution of Azusawa. The latter, however, sees no point in living anymore and instantly assaults Arata to force the Crime Coeffecient above the non-lethal Paralyzer threshold, trying to get himself shot with an Eliminator instead.

In the Enchanted Forest Chronicles, an Affectionate Parody of fairy tales, Princess Cimorene runs away to work for a dragon in order to escape her Arranged Marriage. She has to keep dissuading her fiancé and others from trying to rescue her.
To the point where she challenges the knights herself, suggests other captured princesses they could rescue instead, puts up a sign saying that the path to her dragon's cave is out, and eventually changes her title to "Chief Cook and Librarian" so that "saving" her sounds like a less glamorous rescue mission. She also horrifies one of the knights when she explains that the dragon is out borrowing a crêpe pan. Explaining why the dragon is borrowing a crêpe pan leads to the exclamation "You DO like it here!"

The Adventures of Mark Twain: During the "Diary of Adam & Eve" segment, Eve falls into a pond and after getting "strangled" by the water, she concludes that the fish are also uncomfortable and takes them out. As Adam notes, the fish aren't much happier on dry land, "only quieter."

In season eight of Supernatural, Castiel is rescued from Purgatory, even though he already passed up an opportunity to leave, willingly choosing to stay in order to do penance for previous actions that he regretted. He doesn't have much of an opportunity to get angry with his rescuers about it however, as they mind-wiped him so he wouldn't remember how he got out, and then moved on to mind-controlling him for almost half the season.

The medieval chronicle of the Danes, Gesta Danorum by Saxo Grammaticus, tells the story of Starkad who after having slain nine brothers in single combat angrily refused the aid of three passers-by he considered dishonourable, although his guts were hanging out of his belly. The rest of his story is pretty much like that as well.

One Sesame Street sketch has Mr. Johnson at a baseball game hoping to catch a fowl ball when Grover comes up selling hot dogs. Throughout the sketch, as Grover is preparing Mr. Johnson's hot dog a fowl ball comes up, and Grover tries to protect him and push him out of the way, leaving Mr. Johnson increasingly frustrated. Finally, as he's chewing out Grover, another fowl ball comes, and hits him on the head knocking him out. Grover ends up catching the ball.

In the Torchwood episode "Combat", Owen Harper is sent undercover to infiltrate an undercover fight club for men with too much money and too little sense of purpose whose main event involves seeing who can last the longest in a cage with a captured Weevil. After he's forced into the cage at gunpoint, the rest of his team bursts in guns a-blazing, shuts down the ring, and pulls him out. In the hospital afterward with his injuries, he explains that he didn't want saving- somehow, his time in the cage gave him a sense of peace he had never felt before. This isn't explained further, but he might just be suicidal.

In Brewster's Millions, the attempts of concerned friends to either intervene in the protagonist's feverish spending of his newly inherited millions or wisely invest his money so that he'll save at least some of it tend only to frustrate the protagonist, since unknown to them he has to spend the original inheritance in order to gain an even bigger one.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Sir Galahad was clearly reluctant to leave the nymphomaniac-populated Castle Anthrax. It was apparent the rescuers were protecting his chastity (his title is Galahad the Chaste).
Sir Lancelot goes and slaughters a wedding party to rescue a damsel lad in distress, to the horror of the king. Lancelot is then married off to the bride-to-be as compensation for the damage.

In an episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Bats pulls Save the Villain against Joker, who'd been betrayed by the washed-up Golden Age supervillain he'd brought out of retirement. Joker is quite displeased, and says that he'd ruined his best joke ever — if the Weeper had killed Joker, he'd have "claimed his destiny", going from washed up lame bad guy to the king of crime. It sort of echoes movie Joker not wanting to be saved because he'd have made Batman break his code — even a Lighter and Softer Joker cares more about his game than even his own life.

For the rest of the book, they refer to the four as kidnappers.

In Snow White with the Red Hair Shirayuki is "rescued" from the Tanburn palace by being jumped, drugged and spirited away. The problem is that even if she doesn't care for Tanburn's royalty she was there as a guest representing a neighboring country and was in no need of rescuing. This means they kidnapped her and injured her friend Obi in the process because they are projecting their own experiences on an entirely different situation. On top of this by the time she wakes from being drugged she and her "rescuer" have been grabbed by cruel slave traders.

In one The Order of the Stick strip, Belkar is not happy when his teammates save him from being killed by Knight Templar Miko. He had it all worked out: Miko would kill him, wrongly, she'd lose her paladinhood, which Belkar would have found hilarious, and then Durkon would have raised Belkar because he's a member of the team. He's somewhat stimmied when V points out that Durkon can't cast raise dead because it requires diamonds.

In Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu, one episode focuses on a young man finding Kaname very attractive, so he sends his butler to invite her to his mansion. She agrees (still upset at Sousuke for earlier) and she obliges. Sousuke, being well... Sousuke, comes up with bizarre assumptions such as Kaname tracking an old enemy or being kidnapped by some crazed thugs who may be doing horrible things to her and sets off, full combat gear, to rescue her. It doesn't help his assumptions when the staff of the mansion turn out to be professional fighters rangers from assassins to former members of military groups, which only fuels Sousuke's rescue efforts as he defeats them. When he finally reaches Kaname, she tries to pretend she's not even present before finally hitting him over the head for his boneheaded rescue. He then confusingly asks if she was kidnapped, and she plainly states she was having tea and was invited. This doesn't stop Sousuke from jumping out the window with Kaname while holding a portable chute and slowly floating over the beach.

Trauma Center has Linda Ried, a young teenage girl who Derek performs surgery on and saves her life. Linda yells at Derek for saving her, saying she never asked to be rescued to begin with and was hoping she would finally be free from her life. When Derek asks why Linda is so suicidal, she goes on about the stress and troubles she faces at school and with her family. Later on, Derek and his team finds out that Linda's suicidal thoughts were exasperated by a strain of GUILT in her body, which is what caused her extreme mood swing. Once the GUILT is taken care of, Linda is no longer suicidal and she appreciates Derek for saving her life.

In Saving Hope, Dr. Goran's first surgery at the titular Hope Zion hospital involves doing an experimental procedure that could (and ultimately does) save the patients arm, instead of amputating it like the patient wanted. Dr. Goran tries to talk the patient out of his survivor's guilt (he was injured in war) so he won't feel like he needs to be punished by losing his arm but is unsuccessful and the patient ungratefully sues the hospital (and wins.)

In Reflections on the River, unless players choose the wrong options, Prince Shun or Princess Yanyu (whichever was kidnapped) declines to be rescued from Zheng (the protagonist). In Shun's case, it's because he's actually quite pleased to get away from what he finds to be a boring, pointless life as Spare to the Throne, and wants to learn from Zheng. With Yanyu, it's a bit more complicated: she's actually a Body Double for the real Yanyu, and although she'd hoped to be rescued, the fact that so little effort is put into the search convinces her that she's considered expendable, and she doesn't want to go back.

If you decide to be reasonable, the Chief Engineer arrives with "reinforcements" and the pirate figures you were stalling for time and attacks. After the battle, you have the option of calling out the Chief Engineer.

In an episode of Teen Titans (2003), Cyborg is accidentally sent back in time and befriends some medieval villagers. He agrees to help them defend their town against invading monsters, but gets brought back to the present by Raven the moment the battle begins. As soon as he arrives home, the first thing he does is yell at the team to send him back. He feels better, though, once he sees a history book and learns that the villagers won the battle.

In the Murdoch Mysteries two-parter "The Long Goodbye", Lewellyn Watts, imprisoned for "immorality", refuses to leave the cell when he's told the charge has been dropped and declares himself on hunger strike until he gets his day in court. Violet Hart persuades him to at least drink some water. When he subsequently realises it was laced with the vitamin compound that she used to sell, he's furious that she took away his agency. She counters that dying wasn't going to do his cause any good.

This is the basic premise of "Super Pocoyo" from Pocoyo in which Pocoyo tries to "rescue" several of his friends even though they're only just doing stuff like napping. The story finally ends though with Pato getting his hat stuck on his head and Super Pocoyo actually being able to do a real rescue.

Toward the end of the Kim Possible episode "Go Team Go", Shego has gotten hold of the villain's power-stealing MacGuffin and taken all her brothers' powers for herself. Then Drakken (thinking that Shego is in trouble) shows up with a giant battle robot, providing Kim with the distraction she needs to break the device and return everyone's powers to their proper owners.

In The Wheel of Time Siuan, against Egwene's explicit order, leads a raid to rescue her from the White Tower where she was being held captive as rebel Amyrlin. The order was given so the latter could undermine Elaida's authority by showing more efficiency and dignity as a leader even while being her captive, but this is almost ruined when the Tower Aes Sedai were suddenly reminded that she was the rebel leader.

Shrek:
Fiona, though at first pleased to be saved, no longer wants to be after it is revealed that her rescuer is an ogre, and will not leave until Shrek forces her to.
By the next day, however, she's warmed up to Shrek, and is most unimpressed when Robin Hood swings in and snatches her away.

Life (2017): The film ends with the two leads evacuating the ship in their own vessels. One contains David and an intelligent, extremely adaptful alien named "Calvin" that spent the film hunting down the crew members (a la Alien). David wrestles the alien and directs the vessel towards space so it can't reach earth. The other pod contains Miranda and is destined for earth. We see one pod hit by space depris and the other hurdle towards earth. The Plot Twist is that the pod propelled into deep space was Miranda's, and the vessel that landed on earth contained David and Calvin. It lands near a Vietnamese fishery where two men approach the pod. They encover the entrance to the pod and see David who is trapped by the alien's various limbs. He screams for them to stay away and not help, but they don't know what he is saying. The alien was obviously intelligent enough to know that humans would want to approach and rescue whoever is inside. We see a ship approaching in the distance with more people, suggesting a grim fate for humanity.

In one episode of The Drew Carey Show, friends and relatives worry over the fate of comatose Drew and come close to pulling the plug on him if he doesn't recover because he requested that of his brother — but in reality he's having the time of his life with a giant party inside his head. Complete with his brother saying "I can't imagine what kind of hell he's in right now" followed immediately by a cut to him enjoying himself.

One Piece:
After Robin's long alliance with Crocodile ends with the discovery that the Alabasta poneglyph was another dead end, she loses hope and decides to just die as the tomb collapses only for Luffy to save her. When she protests she wants to die, Luffy bluntly tells her he has no reason to obey her wishes. She ends up joining the Straw Hats due to her interest in Luffy.
When the Straw Hats go to save Robin after she decides to surrender to the World Government, she not only complains, she uses her powers violently on her comrade Usopp to make him and all the other Straw Hats understand that she wants to die. However, it turns out her resistance is due to two major reasons. One, she's afraid of the Straw Hats being wiped out in their effort to save her, and two, she fears that if she stays with them, they'll eventually betray her like everyone who took her in since she was eight did. Only when they go all in and declare war on the World Government itself does she realize there is no way back for them, and that they'll never betray her. She then gives them the green light to save her, and it becomes a Happily Failed Suicide.
The Marineford arc is an interesting case in that it's not an unwanted rescue as much as it is unwanted rescuers. As Ace is about to get publicly executed, his own personal baggage has him value the lives of his rescuers above his own. When Whitebeard and his subordinate crews show up at Marineford, Ace tries to take responsibility for getting captured, only for Whitebeard to shrug him off and declare that he only pursued Blackbeard because he ordered him to. Not long after, Ace's brother Luffy also shows up at Marineford after having previously attempted to break Ace out of prison, only to barely miss him. With the world's greatest powers gathered for Ace's execution, Luffy is getting involved in a conflict way out of his league. Ace is horrified that Luffy might get himself killed trying to save him and attempts to alienate him. Luffy just tells him to complain all he likes: he will save him, even if it kills him. At this point Ace realizes that arguing is pointless, and resolves to accept whatever happens to him.
A small example in the Dressrosa arc: after Law gets captured by Doflamingo, Luffy infiltrates the palace to rescue him. Law tries to send him off on the basis that they are no longer allies, but Luffy tells him to can it. In truth, Law's plan to kill Doflamingo by incurring Kaido's wrath had gone down the drain, and as such Law did not believe that there was an outcome in which he could win. His attempt to alienate Luffy was just Law trying to give the Straw Hats a way out, since they had no reason to die for his grudge and he was fully prepared to die if it meant taking Doflamingo with him, as long as he was the only one who died. Because he had spent 13 years living for the sake of his revenge, his defeat and capture meant he no longer had a reason to live. Once Luffy rescues him and decides to go after Doflamingo for his own reasons (along with a dozen or so powerhouses whom Doflamingo had conveniently pissed off), Law has a change of heart and decides to go all in and kill Doflamingo himself (just as soon as he can remove his seastone cuffs).
Possibly the case in the Whole Cake Island arc, though it's ambiguous as to whether the rescue attempt is wanted. Sanji is forced into an Arranged Marriage with one of Big Mom's daughters, with the implicit threat that Big Mom's forces will come after him (and the rest of the Straw Hats by association) if he doesn't comply. He agrees to go but tells the crew that he's fine and he'll be back later, although whether he really intends to come back and/or if he expected the crew to come after him is left ambiguous. Either way, Luffy (predictably) decides to go rescue him.

Variation in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Inside Jabu Jabu's belly, Ruto is more concerned with retrieving the Zora's Sapphire than with being rescued, and is more than a little stuck up about the whole thing. Though it is quite clear that she does need help, but is too stubborn to admit it, which is why she "compromises" by allowing him to carry her. After all is done, she does properly thank him for his help and falls in love with him.

Followed by a class-action lawsuit by the passengers of a train that Mr. Incredible stopped from falling off the rails by jumping in its way, causing several injuries from the sudden stop. And then a spree of lawsuits by other rescuees against their rescuers that resulted in all the world's superheroes hanging up their capes for fifteen years.

When Jason from The Beyonders rescues Tark from his suicidal venture off a waterfall with his band mates, Tark swears to find him and get his revenge, believing he (Tark) should have died with his friends to finish the ritual that would summon a hero to save the world. Ironically, unbeknownst to him, Jason is the exact hero that he and his friends succeeded in summoning before they died.

Happens a couple of times in Sonic X:
In the wake of Perfect Chaos' attack on Station Square, Sonic hears a voice crying out for help from beneath some rubble. It turns out to be Bokkun, who refuses to thank Sonic and angrily insists that if he'd known it was him, he wouldn't have cried out for him.
When Amy shows up to break Sonic out of Prison Island, he initially tells her to leave him be, having gotten himself Captured on Purpose in the hope of finding out more about Shadow. Subverted when Amy reveals that Shadow himself is also on the island, at which point Sonic just busts out of the cell on his own.

The novelty song "Cowboy Convention", first recorded by The Ohio Express in 1969, and later a favorite of Buck Owensnote He produced a version performed by his guitarist Don Rich and his son Buddy Alan, and he also performed it on Hee Haw. In The Wild West, the narrator keeps getting trapped by savage natives before getting rescued by a bunch of famous Western heroes (real and fictional). In the final verse, though, he gets captured by a friendly chief who offers him a home and his choice of an Indian Maiden to settle down with. To his consternation, the heroes rescue him again.

Final Fantasy X: Two times, Yuna is left alone with Seymour. Both times, she has a hidden agenda and wants the others far away, so she can carry out her plan without interference. Both times, the others storm in and try to save her before she can enact her plan, and the second time, end up a liability, as their lives are used as leverage against her.

In the Blackadder Goes Forth episode "Private Plane", Blackadder and Baldrick have been shot down over German territory and imprisoned by Baron von Richthofen who plans to give them "a fate worse than a fate worse than death"... being sent to Germany to teach young girls Home Economics. Naturally Blackadder is thrilled at the idea of leaving the trenches and the pointless war for good... until Lord Flasheart arrives to rescue him.
When Blackadder attempts to stall the rescue, Flashheart works out his game and forces them to come with him. (Though he makes it up to him slightly by headbutting Darling)

Daring Do allows herself to get captured so she can foil Ahuizotl's plan and only grudgingly accepts help from Rainbow Dash and her friends.

Doctor Who:
When Barbara (in a God Guise) acts to spare the Human Sacrifice in "The Aztecs", the chosen sacrifice instead throws himself to his death off the top of the pyramid: being chosen as a sacrifice being a great honour in Aztec society.
In "The Web of Fear", the Doctor submits to a plan which allows the Intelligence to drain his mind. His companions try to stop him and he fights them off. It turns out that he was not fighting them because he was controlled; rather, he had sabotaged the machine so that he would drain the Intelligence instead and his companions, by rescuing him, had allowed the Big Bad to get away.
In "The Night of the Doctor", Cass prefers death to rescue by the Doctor, because the Time War has so ravaged the universe that she considers the Time Lords no better than the Daleks.

At the end, he chooses to stay behind because he believes he's successfully covered his tracks, as he thinks he can do more good while staying with the Empire.

In CSI, the A-plot in the episode "Unleashed" turns out to be this. The victim was living as a Human Pet (the BDSM variant of that trope, though sex seems to be entirely absent from the arrangement) in the mansion of a rich dentist, along with several other women (the arrangement was entirely consensual and the women could have left at any time). Unfortunately, her former assistant (the victim used to work at a shelter for abused women) assumed the victim had been brainwashed and wanted to "free" her, which led to the victim's death.

While she does want to be rescued at first, after a few days, she decides that she'd rather have a lifestyle of wealth and comfort with a man she hates, rather than going back to living in poverty with Galavant, and she spurns him when he shows up to rescue her.

Happens in Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time when Ratchet goes to save Azimuth from Lord Vorselon. It's apparently because he'd rather Ratchet go on to find the Great Clock by himself, rather than waste time to save an old Lombax. Azimuth's rescue did kind of bite Ratchet and almost the whole universe in the ass later, though.

Johnny Bravo:
Subverted in the episode "Bikini Space Planet", where a bunch of beautiful alien girls abducted Johnny and he was rather enjoying it. Pops and Carl spent most of the episode developing a device to bring him back. All of their effort was for naught, since the girls ended up sending him back anyway but Pops and Carl were under the impression Johnny's return was their doing.
In another episode, Johnny is sent to a women's prison by mistake, and it's full of women so desperate for a guy that they're even willing to date him. When Bunny and Susie prove his innocence, he's literally dragged from the prison kicking and screaming.
In another episode, Johnny travels to the jungle, and gives a bouquet of flowers to a random woman. As it turns out, in her culture, that is considered a marriage proposal. Johnny decides he's ok with this. But as the wedding ceremony is about to take place Carl interferes, trying to rescue Johnny, which gets them both in a lot of trouble.

In the "Flight of the Firebird" arc in Suicide Squad, the Squad is sent into Russia to free a dissident writer from The Gulag. After breaking her out, they discover that she did not want to be rescued. So long as she was in prison, she was a symbol to other dissidents. If she escaped, she became just another defector. Ultimately she was killed during the escape attempt, thus becoming a martyr.

An episode of Codename: Kids Next Door "Operation C.O.L.L.E.G.E." features Numbuh 1 infiltrating a college where they remove kids' brains. He is subsequently captured but it turns out that Professor XXXL made up the "removing brains" thing to lure Numbuh 1 (who doesn't get Brain Freeze) there so he could have a test subject for his perfect snow cone machine. Numbuh 1 has no objections. His team soon bust in to rescue him, getting him horribly hurt in the process, while he begs to be taken back.
He never got to tell the man it was the perfect snow cone formula he wanted to make, the minute he finished it, after the man had been working on it for months but had highly sensitive teeth and gums and got brain freeze every time he tried his creations.

In the second Warrior Cats book, Fire and Ice, Fireheart realizes that Sandpaw and the enemy warrior that she's fighting are about to fall into the gorge, so he knocks the other warrior away from her (and from the edge) and pulls Sandpaw off the edge and to her feet. Sandpaw's furious at him for "saving" her from the enemy warrior because she already dislikes Fireheart and insists she can fight her own battles, but just then another cat falls over the edge and drowns. That makes Sandpaw realize what Fireheart had actually been saving her from, and she grows more friendly toward him from then on.

Early in the movie Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust, D is tasked with rescuing a woman from the vampire Count Meier Link. However, in the midst of his first fight with Meier, he suddenly hears her call out his name. The revelation is enough of a shock to make D break off the fight, since this is when he realizes he never got the whole story: that she was a willing participant in the whole affair, and that the two are actually trying to elope.

Orendi from Battleborn has this in regards to her own rescue in the past. A couple of her lines in PvP has her refer to Marquis having "enslaved" her and her family and such however, exactly what happened between them isn't fully detailed in either of the characters' lore challenges. Battleplan 19 per a discussion on the Battleborn subreddit on the matter addressed this and revealed what exactly happened between Marquis and Orendi. During the joint Eldrid and LLC mission to save her people, Orendi met Phoebe and Marquis. Being the crazy varimorph that she is, she refused being "abducted". For "her own safety", her rescuers were forced to subdue her in order to get her safely off-world. Later upon waking up, she and Marquis got into an altercation of which involved the heated exchange of the terms "hobo" and "slaver". Ever since then, she's had a great hatred for Marquis which continued on even after they joined forces together as Battleborn.

In the Family Guy episode Leggo-my-Meg-O, the episode spoofs the movie Taken, with Brian and Stewie going overseas to rescue a kidnapped Meg from a sex slave auction. When they do finally manage to find Meg and kill her captor, she is in horrific agony over his death. Not that Brian and Stewie listen, but moments before this the audience saw that, unlike the movie it's based on, the Sheikah who bought her did so to give his handsome son a wife, and the son is actually a really nice guy who asks Meg if she'll accept him and be happy with him. Just as they're about to kiss, Stewie and Brian barge in and shoot them dead.

At this point, Walt has given up and lets Hank arrest him. Jack and his men show up anyway, ignoring Walt begging them not to. A shootout ensues, leaving both DEA agents dead and Walt free, but at the cost of his brother-in-law and six-sevenths of the money he vainly offered Jack in exchange for his life.

Last Scenario has a variant in which the Big Bad is saved by his Quirky Miniboss Squad. Unfortunately, he swore long ago that he would become strong enough that he would never have to rely on other people. It was bad enough that his defeat showed how weak he was, but his minions' Villainous Valour which included one of them performing a Heroic Sacrifice only amplified his Villainous Breakdown.

Done hilariously on Charmed (1998). When Phoebe and Piper turn up, Prue and her naked "kidnapper" are making out, after having enjoyed a night together. No one's very thrilled.

In Mami's route in Puella Magi Madoka Magica Portable, she encounters a Witch-kissed woman trying to immolate herself with gasoline. After defeating the Witch Gisela by herself, Mami returns to check on the woman... only to find that she really was suicidal, and is none too pleased with Mami for saving her. This can lead directly to Mami's Bad Ending.

In Ella Enchanted, Lucinda frees Ella from her chains, which were holding her back from killing Char. She then puts her in a fancy dress and teleports her to the ballroom, under the pretense that she's doing her a favor.

In The Final Days of Superman, Superman seeks his cousin out, who has been missing for several weeks. When he finally finds Supergirl, she is unconscious and strapped to a chair at a Government facility. So he bashes his way into the place, rips Supergirl out of some sort of weird device, and flies her away. When Kara comes around, she tells him she did NOT need saving because they were helping her get her powers back.

Played with some dark humor in the Babylon 5 episode "Convictions". When Londo and G'Kar are trapped in a burning elevator during a terrorist attack on the station, G'Kar says with some glee that he welcomes their fate because it would give him a chance to see Londo die, without invoking the penalty imposed by the Centauri (after the conquest and surrender of Narn) for a Narn killing a Centauri, which was the execution of 500 Narn including the killer's family. G'Kar laughs about this "good fortune" while Londo screams that he is crazy. When they are rescued, he expresses some disappointment in the Universe that this fate didn't pan out. (Note: the terrorist attack had nothing to do with the Narn-Centauri conflict.)

In the City of Heroes tie-in comics, Statesman went missing at a time the world needed him most (Everyone's super-powers and technology had gone kaput). So the remaining Freedom Phalanx members disobeyed his direct orders (given via a recorded message) and set out to find him. They discovered him being tortured by several former super-villains, and rescue him. His thanks? Calling them all idiots and informing them that he had HIRED those villains and WANTED to get tortured so that he'd have the means to reactivate his powers (somehow). Oops.

A minor (and humorous) version of this can be found in Full Metal Panic! with Sousuke and Mao. When Mao was describing how she first met Sousuke and Kurz, she mentions that her first meeting with Sousuke went rather poorly, with Sousuke being ridiculously unfriendly and stand off-ish. And when Kurz starts sexually harassing her (which was mainly just to ensure that she wouldn't choose him for part of her SRT team), Sousuke stealthily goes up to them and stops Kurz by putting his rifle between them. However, this "rescue" doesn't exactly go appreciated, considering the way he phrased it and the condescending way he acted. "That's enough. Your name is Kurz Weber, right? Stop teasing the petty officer. You'll cause trouble for the rest of us."
In Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu, one episode focuses on a young man finding Kaname very attractive, so he sends his butler to invite her to his mansion. She agrees (still upset at Sousuke for earlier) and she obliges. Sousuke, being well... Sousuke, comes up with bizarre assumptions such as Kaname tracking an old enemy or being kidnapped by some crazed thugs who may be doing horrible things to her and sets off, full combat gear, to rescue her. It doesn't help his assumptions when the staff of the mansion turn out to be professional fighters rangers from assassins to former members of military groups, which only fuels Sousuke's rescue efforts as he defeats them. When he finally reaches Kaname, she tries to pretend she's not even present before finally hitting him over the head for his boneheaded rescue. He then confusingly asks if she was kidnapped, and she plainly states she was having tea and was invited. This doesn't stop Sousuke from jumping out the window with Kaname while holding a portable chute and slowly floating over the beach.
Several episodes later, Kaname and her friend Ren (the daughter of a Yakuza boss), are kidnapped. They're saved by Sousuke and the gang wearing combat armor... made from Bonta-kun outfits. Their jog through downtown is fairly humiliating as the two women are escorted by several Bonta-kun suits all shouting marching chants.
In Dancing Very Merry Christmas, Killy B. Sailor decides that Mithril's staged seajacking of his cruise on Christmas Eve is his glorious moment to play John McClain and attempts to thwart the "terrorists". This probably would have ended rather quickly if he hadn't immediately designated Tesa (the commanding officer of the mission) as the designated Damsel in Distress and "rescued "her from her own subordinates (who are understandably unwilling to fire on their CO). Tessa then spends the rest of the volume unsuccessfully attempting to escape her would-be rescuer and get back in contact with her crew.

Combined with a hostage situation in Swordfish. The bad guy has strapped the hostages with explosives that will go off if they get too far away from him. Two police officers who are Too Dumb to Live manage to grab one of the hostages and drag her away from the scene while she is fighting to get back inside. She blows up.

Star Trek: The Next Generation: In "Darmok", Picard finally pieces together the Tamarian captain Dathon's language and plan: join forces to fight a common foe (a dangerous beast on El-Adrel). Unfortunately, the Enterprise manages to lock on to Picard while he and Dathon are fighting the beast and tries to beam Picard back, and without Picard's help, Dathon gets mortally injured.

During the "Moving Up" scene in Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, The Fans get a call to rescue a guy's sister from a gangster hideout. After the Fans brutally massacre everyone in the building (in Hotline Miami fashion), the panicked girl points a gun at them, revealing that she wasn't held captive and that the gangsters were her friends.
If you try to get close to her after this, she'll keep her promise and shoot you.
