What do you do when you've got an idea for a scene, but

Publicly humiliate yourself as punishment and whip your brain until it submits and never makes that mistake again

How do you think I got famous?

My name is Ted and you have heard of me, I assure you

Write it anyway. Ideas that stay in your head are useless,but getting anything to paper is. This way you can read it and store it away for use in some larger work.

Write it anyway. Without context. Fill the variables with what you prefer. Maybe someday the story will reveal itself to you. Maybe reading that scene will actually help you come up with the story.
And also if the scene is good enough, it could stand on its own just for it's emotional/aesthetical value.

Why do I get the feeling you're some third world shitskin that doesn't know what the word scene means?

This is actually the way you're supposed to write

The best way to write a story with strong central theming is bottom up

You write something that exemplifies the theme which is rarely if ever placed at the beginning of a story (at the end occasionally) then work in an outward fashion

write the scene anyway, just to practice it. maybe it's the opening to a story, maybe you just stow it away for safe keeping. know it well enough so that you can adapt it to multiple stories, or even rinse/repeat it in different ways throughout the same story so they just appear different but have the same overall theme of events, as a pattern of a character's behavior and its consequences
