Damsel in Distress/Trope Co
So you need to kidnap someone to lure the hero to your lair. But for some reason, just grabbing someone close to him isn't an option. Lois Lane is out of town, and all the Action Girls have learned to overcome the Standard Female Grab Area.
But heroes are willing to rescue strangers in the right circumstances. That's why Trope Co® is able to provide you with your own Damsel in Distress. We found some Upper Class Twits are willing to do anything if they are bored/drunk/hypnotized enough. So for a reasonable fee, they let you kidnap them, and the hero comes to the rescue.
If a rich ditz isn't an option, we also have a pool of interns who don't mind being kidnapped, or they just do what we tell them to. Either way you have a ready hostage.
Just don't actually hurt them, either physically, mentally, or sexually (unless they agree to any of those and sign a waiver). We have successfully sued over such misuse of our people in the past. They're to help you get your nemesis.
Be wary of defective products that might end up kicking you in the butt instead.
