The LOCKED AWAY meme

Welcome to prison. Whether you're in a modern jail, a dungeon, or a lonely space station on the moon with one robot guard, you are behind bars and kept away from humanity. But what's this? You have a visitor? That's strange...
001 - Relative - you remember your father/uncle/mother/aunt as a great person who always gave you money for ice cream, candy, and comic books. Too bad your home was invaded at a certain age and they were taken away. You'd never heard of the mafia or assassins before, so it was a hard thing to swallow. But now you're of age to visit them on your own, and that's what you're doing. You just hope they got your birthday cards.
002 - Rat - your buddy in jail? He took the fall. For you. But he didn't take the fall so much as you pushed him off the rafters to save your sorry ass. Plagued with guilt, you go to apologize...depending how it goes, you may be rubbing it in his face, too. Or maybe you're going to cry for him to call of the hit on you because nobody likes a tattle-tell.
003 - Scapegoat - your buddy had to go to jail to keep something important from being discovered. Maybe it's some new scientific theory, maybe it's the missing half of the golden amulet that would lead to something Indiana Jones would cry at. But whatever it is, this special person in your life was either selected to take the fall or volunteered to do it themselves. A box of chocolate and a card every few months isn't cutting it; you're going to say hi.
004 - Conjugal visit - everyone has needs. Whether or not you're going for purely sexual purposes is up for debate. Maybe you want information, too. Maybe you're the wife/husband/SO of the convicted, and you really felt like giving them the best Valentines Day present imaginable. Maybe you're a business partner who's using it as an excuse to get alone time with the accused. Either way, this sex trailer is the only true time you can be alone with the person you're seeking.
005 - Victim - the person behind bars is the reason you've been in therapy for so long. They killed your parents, they set your house on fire, they stalked you to your workplace and tried to kill you. You can't help but confront them. Maybe you're going to ask why. Maybe you're going to simply stare at them until the time is up. You just want them to know that you haven't forgotten what they did to you.
006 - BREAK OUT - your friend shouldn't be here. Everything was falsified data. The people on the stand lied. Good thing you're a genius, or have connections, or simply have superhuman strength. No matter how you do it, you and your buddy are leaving the jail together.
007 - Wildcard - mix and match or come up with your own. Have fun!
