This show can be infuriating, but as promised I did cap the handgag scene if anyone is interested. As an added bonus, I also capped the scene where Vanessa Marcil and Nikki Cox wake up on a bed after a night of partying.

Also saw an "ER" promo. Abby is kidnapped in a van and when the thugs open the back door.....we see Abby sitting there not gagged but it looks like her hands are tied in front.

Anyone remember the Top Cops where some criminals kidnap two teen models? Loose binds, hand and foot, one girl in socks, the other bare foot...ring any bells?

I'm officially done with this show. I'm tired of wathing their asinine story lines. Am I supposed to believe that he drove all night with her making noise and pounding from the trunk. Last week they have a kidnapping... and it's big fricken ED. Now this week they show this crap. I hope this show gets cancelled.

Yeah... but now & then, you look up... & NIKKI COX is on the screen!!! {Sigh} Yeah, the Molly-in-the-trunk thing was incredibly ILLOGICAL & frustrating, but the *NIKKI-&-Marsha-&-the-tiger* scene was cute, & so was the *NIKKI-&-Vanessa-wake-up-in-bed* scene. In short, I'd watch a show entitled *NIKKI COX READS THE PHONEBOOK*... & my admitting to watching Las Vegas proves it. :-)

"24"'s Kim Raver in TV Guide
In the past there has been discussion about how actresses feel about getting tied up and comments they have made along those lines.
In the current issue of TV Guide Kim says, "On one of my first days on set, (director/coexec. prod.) Jon Cassar
walked up and was like, 'Hi, I'm going to bind and gag you'. Keep in mind I had never met the man before. The next thing I know, I'm thrown in a van, my eyes blindfolded and my hands tied, thinking, 'What am I doing here?!'" She laughs.

Why illogical? THe easiest thing for the guy to do was throw her in the trunk. You can't expect people to carry rope or duct tape around with them everywhere just in case.

Memo to tv bad guys:

If a damsel is on the phone, wait until she finishes her call (even if she's saying something about you) before you grab her. Its a lot less suspicious than 'he's here and unhhh.. help!' on someone's answering machine.

Keep a roll of duct tape handy in the glove compartment of your car--you never know when it might come in handy. You might even want to leave some rope in your trunk.

If you've committed identity theft/murder, and you've heard a damsel talking about you on the phone, don't use the dead guy's credit card on your escape. Use cash! She probably had enough cash on her for gas, even if you didn't. You also probably don't want to get out of your car to pump gas while you have a damsel untied and making noise in the trunk.

Reinforce the lights in the back of your car on the inside if you're going to stash a damsel in the trunk. Disconnecting the turn signal is the oldest attention getting trick in the world.


If your car can't get more than about fifteen miles outside of Vegas when you've apparently been driving for hours (judging by the sun) you may want to get a new car.


Above all, tie up the damsel you've stashed in the trunk, and gag her. That way she can't disconnect your lights, and pound on the roof and yell until she gets noticed (and did this idiot of a bad guy leave his shovel in the trunk with the untied damsel? That's a good way to get stabbed in the stomach with a shovel as soon as you open the trunk).

Janina Flieger
She has a web site at http://www.janinaflieger.de with a guestbook ('GASTEBUCH') at the bottom of the menu.

I'd like to ask her how it was filming the scene at the link but I can't write German. Could a German speaker ask an innocuous question that might yield a detailed reply?

Hint: It's better using a female name as a moniker.

If only that fool had followed one of your excellent tips, it would have been better off.

I also agree I'm getting close to tossing this show from my recording schedule. I've already done that with "Crossing Jordan." These multiple storylines are infuriating. There just isn't any time to develop anything. If Sims had been grabbed at the 30-minute mark instead of at 45 we could have had some kind of exchange/gag scene until the rescue.

I carry duct tape and electrical tape in case of a leaking hose, (used it once for that purpose) also have first aid kit along with parachute cord in case I need it.

If he had a shovel with him, he'd would have binding material.

Old scene
here's a holy grail that's not even in the database. I'm looking for confirmation from some oldtimers before posting. In the mid 70's Norman Lear produced a sitcom called "All That Glitters". The premise was that gender roles were reversed from what we know. Therefore women were in positions of power and men were the stay at home types, often objectified by the women. Anyway, one episode had Linda Gray (later Sue Ellen on Dallas) kidnapped and she was bound hands behind her back and cleve-gagged. She was wearing a pantsuit with boots. I thought it was a pretty good scene. Anyone else remember it?

Exactly. Most of the old bangers I've operated have also contained old carbon ignition leads (the replacement of which never solved that elusive electrical problem), old blankets in case I needed to get out and get under, jump leads and, of course, a tow rope.

Also, if you're totally reckless with your intended prisoner's health, cold-start spray contains ether.

Drive a real-world car 15 years old or more rather than a shiny new product-placed bourgemobile, and it's perfectly natural to carry a shedload of binding material!

Stupid shows are our friends. Think about it. Most of the greats--Wonder Woman, T. J. Hooker, Dangerous Curves, Partners in Crime, etc etc were grade Z. Shows that had good scenes and were of as high quality as Melrose Place, let alone the Avengers, are quite rare. Given that the syndicated action shows seem to have bitten the dust, we should be thankful to NBC for reviving stupid TV with lots of beautiful women and simple-minded action. Vegas is a hit, so its likely to be imitated a good deal (Desperate Housewives is also a hit, but apart from the beautiful women it involves witty story lines, which are a lot more difficult to copy). And as its often been said around here, be patient--all great shows had lots of duds and missed opportunities.

Heather Locklear made her debut on last night's "T.J. Hooker" episode as the desk officer. I think someone posted it took a while until officer Sheridan went into the "field" and found trouble.

question about yahoo groups
I hope this isn't considered off topic, as it is in regards to the yahoo didcap groups. When you visit the homepage of the group, you can scroll down and see how many new photos were added in the past 7 days. My question is.....is there any way of knowing WHICH folder those pictures were added to? I am a member of several groups and I check them all about once a week or so, but when I'm looking for the new pics, it's hard to tell where the old stuff ends and the new stuff begins, especially since many groups have similar content. Thanks very much to anyone who can help.

In your Yahoo group membership, did you opt to receive e-mail from that particular group? If you don't want to get inundated with e-mails (particularly those w/ attachments that take up a lot of memory), I opt for the Yahoo Groups "Daily Digest" option.

*Most* persons adding material to folders will indicate which folders they've added it to.

General Hospital possiblity
Today on GH the good guys were plotting to get the evil Helena to "try and kidnap Emily" (their words). Summeries for Thursday and Friday don't look good as they mention "Helena gets a surprise when she moves against Emily" & "Helena's plans for Emily go awry". However, it could be like the Twilight Zone episode where the kidnapper gets on a tape gag before being stabbed in the side.

Limited discussion of general topics like this is ok.
As long as we don't get too bogged down in problems at
specific sites (messages to the group owner are what's
needed there).

I wouldn't pick at the reality thing too much. The most
sensible thing was for him to kill her immediately. That's
true in many of the cases where we get scenes, it's only
because it's TV and they don't beat women into submission
or to death very often that we get most of our tie-up
scenes.

Just remember the wise words of Joel and the 'bots,
"Just repeat to yourself it's just a show, I should really just relax."

Yet others don't have that. For instance, me.

There have been many times when I had a shovel but no
tape or rope.

Again, don't over think it. If the writers/director had
wanted him to tie her up, he would have had stuff.

Problems
I've just come to realize that the automailer for the site has quit working. That means the "contact me" form doesn't work, nor does the Database registration. I'll do the latter by hand until it's fixed. To get a hold of me, use direct email.
If you sent me anything via the form after Jan. 5 or so, I didn't get it.

Veronica Mars
Well, there's a sub-blink scene tonight. Veronica Mars gets nabbed. Next scene she's in the trunk of a car, rapidly undoing the ropes tying her hands in front, then she removes the hood on her head. There's no real shot of her tied up. But at least the show is moving in the right direction. Somewhere around the '40 mark.

Veronica Mars TEASES again
First when she gets arrested in the beginning...we don't see her hands in the cuffs. Secondly when she gets grabbed by The Tritons, it fast-forwards to her taking a bag off her head in a car trnk. You can't tell from the ropes HOW they were tied on her...were the ropes holding the bag over her head or not? Or were here hands tied in front and she managed to get them loose? I think the writers of the show are lurking here and are out to torture us!
