Knowing that Alice would eventually escape should she be captured, Lord Bloodstone [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim just shoots her]] when he has the chance.

"Huh, you saved yourself, Alice." "It wasn't that hard to be honest. Also, you're late."

** Alice's capture [[CapturedOnPurpose was part of the plan all along]].
** Alice needed to [[PlayAlongPrisoner pretend to be helpless]] long enough to gather intel from within.
** [[BadassInDistress Alice is powerful enough that Lord Bloodstone needed to spare no expense with her prison]]. The moment her PowerLimiter experiences a slight technical difficulty, she blows the prison apart.

** Alice effortlessly breaks free from any shackles placed on her or confined space she is placed inside. This causes problems during a {{UsefulNotes/BDSM}} session.
** Alice instantly, inexplicably vanishes from her cell the second after she tells one of the guards to [[LookBehindYou look behind them]].
* '''Zigzagged''': Lord Bloodstone imprisons Alice. She breaks out. The entire episode becomes a tug of war between Alice and Lord Bloodstone where he keeps capturing her and she keeps breaking out. Who will win?
* '''Averted''': Alice is never captured.
* '''Enforced''': The writer is worried about making Alice a FauxActionGirl, so they write a scene for Alice where she escapes from Lord Bloodstone's lair on her own.

* '''Played For Laughs''': Similar to PlayingWith/DamselInDistress' Played For Laughs entry, breaking herself out of a supervillain's lair is just another Tuesday for Alice.
* '''Played For Drama''': Alice is an incredibly powerful being [[TheDreaded feared among heroes and villains alike]]. When she starts breaking free from her prison and [[AwakeningTheSleepingGiant retaliating against Lord Bloodstone's forces]] (with a MookHorrorShow for good measure,) [[OhCrap he realizes he's done for]].
