Bingo.

I doubt anyone will get these, but:

1. A man tries to juggle his work, his family, and his passion for Tibetan Buddhism.

2. A woman in a loveless marriage gets into witchcraft and reunites her husband with his ex-girlfriend.

3. A Jewish guy sells two priests some underpants and gets sent to a concentration camp.

The point I'm trying to make is that the only way to come out on top is to kick the Air Force in the nuts, beart it savagely with a weight and take a dump on it's face.
Since these are still on the board with no guesses, I'll give some hints.

1. Two parents are reunited with their runaway daughter thanks to the actions of a concerned citizen.
Shooting Sport plays a major role in winning their daughter's return.

These three have one rather large thing in common:

(2) A young woman takes an impromptu trip to South America via sea-plane with a new friend she met only hours before.
Her friend brags about how he enjoys eating hats in the morning.

(3) A powerful figure in the mining industry tries in vain to convince a former coworker to attend a company party.
The coworker sarcastically promises to attend after the two get into an altercation in an elevator.

(4) A suave, duplicitous ladies' man is abducted and interrogated by government agents.
The ladies' man's own fake backstory about being a spy ended up landing him in hot water.

While it fits, it's not what I had in mind. Once one or both of the others in the set get guessed I have the feeling it'll be an easy kill... All three are fairly popular and have a unifying characteristic.
