Frameups

"Principal Duffy, this isn't what it looks like. I was set up!"

- Ace McDougal

In all media, A frameup or setup is the act of the hero being framed by the villain or a hero, that is, providing false evidence or false testimony in order to falsely prove someone guilty of a crime.

Sometimes, the person who is framing someone else is the actual perpetrator of the crime. In other cases it is an attempt by law enforcement to get around due process. Motives include getting rid of political dissidents or "correcting" what they see as the court's mistake. Some lawbreakers will try to claim they were framed as a defense strategy.

The protagonist must prove his/her innocence by evidence from the antagonist, which is not an easy task. When doing so, they may create an alter ego/new identity for hiding their identity, or have someone else do the task instead. Anything could be happened when they managed to prove their innocence:
 * Discovers the antagonist' conspiracy on something that would threatened the safety of their home/planet/universe/current reality.
 * Final battle against the antagonist.

Quotes
"(Tom Lockjaw (on TV): Tonight's top story: Darkwing Duck, an evil lunatic or crazed villain?) (Darkwing Duck scoffs) Evil lunatic or...CRAZED VILLAIN?! (Darkwing is shocked at what he hears) (Tom Lockjaw: That's right, villain! He is sought by the authorities for a numerous crimes, which includes...arson, burglary, hi-jacking, kidnapping, cat-kicking and spitting on the sidewalk! No wonder the mayor is offering a $1,000,000 reward!)"

"Why was there another team? (Kittridge: What?) Of IMF agents at the Embassy tonight? (Kittridge: I don't quite follow you.) Well, let's see if you can follow me around the room. The drunk Russians on the embankment, 7 and 8 o'clock. The couple waltzing around me at the Embassy at 9 and 11. The waiter standing behind Hannah, top of the stairs. Bow tie, 12 o'clock. The other IMF team. You're worried about me. Why? (Kittridge: Well, for a little over two years we have been spotting serious blowback in IMF operations, we have a penetration. The other day, we decoded a message on the Internet from a Czech we know as Max.) The arms dealer? (Kittridge: That's right. Max, it seems, had two unique gifts: a capacity for anonymity and for corrupting susceptible agents. This time, he'd gotten to someone on the inside. He'd gotten himself into a position to buy our NOC list. An operation he referred to as Job 314. The job he thought Golitsyn was doing tonight.) The list Golitsyn stole was a decoy? (Kittridge: That's correct. The actual list is secure at Langley. Golitsyn was a lightning rod. He was one of ours.) This whole operation...was a mole hunt. This whole operation was a mole hunt. (Kittridge: Yeah, the mole's deep inside...and, like you said, you survived. I want to show you something, Ethan. (gives Ethan a sheet of paper) Since your father's death, your family's farm has been in receivership. Now, suddenly, they're flushed with over 120 grand in the bank. Your father's illness was supposed to have wiped out that bank account. Dying slowly in America, after all, can be a very expensive proposition. So, why don't we quietly get out on a plane? I can see that you're very upset.) Kittridge, you've never seen me very upset. (Kittridge: All right, Hunt, enough is enough. You have bribed, cajoled and killed, and you've done it using loyalties on the inside. You wanna shake hands with the devil, that's fine with me. I just wanna make sure you do it in hell!) (Ethan, having anticipated this, throws a piece of explosive chewing gum at a nearby fish tank, then braces himself.

How may we serve you, gentlemen? Ah, Inspector Henckels! (Henckels: By order of the commissioner of police, Zubrowka Province, I hereby place you under arrest for the murder of Madame Celine Villenueve Desgoffe-und-Taxis.) I knew there was something fishy.

Jason, I don't want to hear any more lies. You're grounded today.) (Jason is insulted and furious.) That's not fair! (Christopher Cameron: Shut it!) (Richard: Jason, your mother said no more lies. We're leaving.) (Stacey and Richard leave. Angry citizens glare at the shocked and enraged boy.) (Citizen #1: It's the bad boy!) (Citizen #2: Get out of here, food thief!) (Citizen #3: Take a hike, you delinquent!) (Everyone threw tomatoes, eggs and other things at Jason. An evil smirk appears on Maroone's face, as he and Christopher leave the scene. Having enough of the public humiliation, Jason is all red in the face and lets out bloody murder.) SHUT UP!!! (Everyone stops throwing the food and they all look shocked at Jason, covered with grease from the food, shaking with anger.) YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY!?! I DON'T HEAR YOU LAUGHING NOW!!! (Fearing he will strike, all the citizens just walk away casually, leaving him standing all alone, an outcast, even at night, when Gunther shows up. He too is furious with Jason for the store incident.) (Gunther, upon hearing Jason was thrown out of the store and grounded: TRAITOR!!!) (Jason looks up from the ground, his face stained with angry tears again.) I can’t believe I’m betrayed by my stepbrother as well! I can’t take it anymore! (Gunther: Johnston, you are traitorous! This is what happens when Mom and Dad don't listen! Now you’re nothing to me!) That wasn't my fault, Gibson! Maroone blamed me for shoplifting, and I ended up left alone and humiliated on the street because of it! I tried to tell Mom and Dad, but they won't listen to me! (Gunther: That was for no good measure! It was Maroone who did this!) And now I am the most hated guy in Nevada. (Gunther: Remember what Mom and Dad told you!? We have to act like mature, responsible adults! We really are!) (Jason knows Gunther is right.) They know we are! They're not listening! They never listened to me! No one ever did! (Gunther: I know that! I'm 16 and you're 19! You should have convinced them to leave us at home! Maroone is evil!) I'm not having this conversation anymore! (Officer Daniel show up.) (Officer Daniel: Boys!) (The boys stop fighting.) (Officer Daniel: Do you two think it’s dark outside to be fighting over some incident of a man blaming a teenage boy for shoplifting, which the boy did not do?) (Jason nods.) (Gunther: It was Quincy Maroone, sir. He blamed my stepbrother, who of course, did not do it.) (Officer Daniel: Of course it wasn’t your stepbrother, son. I spoke to his friends, who recorded the scene in the store. Give this to your mother and father and show this to everyone in town.) (He gives Gunther a tape that has footage.) Thank you, Gunther. (Gunther nods glumly.) (Officer Daniel: I know because that Maroone criminal has been on the top of our wanted list for months. It's getting late out here. You boys should be going home.) (Jason turns to Gunther.) Come on. Let's go. (Gunther, sighs: Yes. Let's get out of here.)"

"(Miles Axlerod: I know him. This is the bloke that called into the television show. You're the one I have to thank.) No, thank you. This trip's been amazing! (There was an oil leak on the floor between Mater and Sir Axlerod.) (Miles Axlerod: Ah! He's a little excited, isn't he?) (Lightning McQueen: Mater!) But wait, I...oh, shoot. (McQueen pulls Mater aside.) (Miles Axlerod: Has anyone got a towel?) (Lightning McQueen, angrily: Mater, you have to get a hold of yourself! You're making a scene.) But I never leak oil. Never. (Lightning McQueen: Go take care of yourself right now!) (Mater drives off.)"

"(Cloud Strife and his friends are talking to a woman who survived the massacre in the Battle Arena) (Security: Hold it right there! And stay quiet!) (Security aims their weapons at them and Dio the manager of the Gold Saucer enters the scene) (Dio: Did you guys do this?) (Cloud Strife: N... no, it wasn't us!) (Dio: I must been wrong.) (Cait Sith: Hurry and run, it's gonna get ugly.) (Cait Sith and the others run to the arena) (Cloud Strife: He... hey!) (He runs after them) (Dio: Stop them!) (Cloud Strife and his firends are trapped and Dio blocks them) (Dio: That's as far as you go.) (He whistles) (Cloud Strife: WAIT, LISTEN TO!) (Cait Sith: Cloud...) (A robot appears in front of Cait Sith and Dio whistles two time and two robots appear surrounding Cloud and his friends) (Cloud is been held by one of the robots and in front of him is a hatch labeled: Gate of Heaven) (Dio: One more to go.) (Security: Yes!) (Cloud Strife: HEY! PAY ATTENTION!!!) (Dio, defiantly: There's no need to listen. Pay for your crime down below!! Do it!) (Security: Yes!) (The hatch opens, the robot jumps in taking Cloud with him)"
