Striking Distance (1993)
Day: Wednesday March 19 2008
Time: 3:30 PM EST
Channel: AMC
Title: Striking Distance (1993)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Sarah Jessica Parker, Sigrid Adrienne, Unknown

Description: Right at the beginning, an unknown actress is lying on the floor. She's tightly cleave-gagged, her feet tied and wrists tied behind her back. It's a short scene, but there's at least some struggling and moaning.

At about the 35 - 40 minute mark we see the feet, ankles and calves of Sigrid with the ankles tied separately to the front legs of a chair. Then we see Bruce Willis reacting to what he hears over the phone: gagged wimpering, a gunshot, followed by silence.

Later in the movie, Sarah Jessica Parker is seated in a chair with her wrists cuffed behind her back.
Nurse Betty (2000)
Day: Wednesday March 19 2008
Time: 4:30 PM EST
Channel: Comedy Central
Title: Nurse Betty (2000)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Renee Zellweger, Tia Texada

Description: About an hour and twenty minutes into this rather dark comedy, the title character (Zellweger) and her roommate Rosa (Texada) have the misfortune of being home when the two hitmen (Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock) who've been chasing Betty finally catch up with her. Freeman grabs Betty and binds her wrists in front with duct tape while his protege does the same with Rosa, adding a tape gag in her case. After her hometown sheriff and a male friend show up unexpectedly, the friend ends up sharing Rosa's predicament while Freeman leads Betty into a bathroom where he cuts the tape, but she takes a while to pull it off and part her hands.

Trivia item: Database damsel Stacy Haiduk (The Beneficiary and TV's Superboy) was cast as an actress playing a nurse in the soap opera the movie's plot revolves around, but her scenes were deleted from the final release.
