| Angel |
| Day: Monday May 04 2009 |
| Time: 6:00AM Central |
| Channel: TNT |
| Title: Angel (1999) Medium: TV Series Actress: Amy Acker Description: Episode: "Why We Fight" (5.13) In this partial flashback episode, a vampire returns after six decades to avenge his martyrdom (as he sees it) during WWII by taking Angel's friends hostage and threatening to kill them. Yes, it's about as forced as it sounds, but it does lead to the full treatment for Fred (Acker). We first see her tied to a chair at the 15-minute mark (including commercials). While the three quick shots at this point -- two long shots and one close-up -- total all of three seconds, they do show off her cute skirt, legs, hands-to-chair-arms bondage, and a surprisingly credible detective gag. Cut to the 30-minute mark. Just before the commercial, we see Fred standing on a chair: still gagged, tied hands behind (though see below) and ankles together, with a noose around her neck. Lamentably, her colleagues Wesley and Gunn are in a similar predicament on either side of her. Back from commercial, the scene continues. Finally, just to keep the every-15-minute thing going, the sequence concludes with a final scene beginning at the 45-minute mark. There's a lot more didactic dialogue than distressed damsel, and there's also one unfortunate shot from behind in which it looks very much as though Fred's wrists aren't actually tied at all. Still, we do get a few rather nice close-ups of Acker (who pouts nicely) and her gag as the action unfolds, so far be it from me to consider this sequence unworthy. |
| The Craft |
| Day: Monday May 04 2009 |
| Time: 1:40AM Central |
| Channel: HBOSe |

| Charlie's Angels |
| Day: Monday May 04 2009 |
| Time: 8:00PM Central |
| Channel: HBOSe |
| Title: Charlie's Angels (2000) Medium: Movie Actress: Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu Description: At some point after the 70' mark (I'm thinking around 74' in), Ms. Barrymore is tied to a chair. Close-up onscreen gagging with tape. The villain has drawn lips on the gag. Several close-ups of a worried Drew while the baddie calls Charlie. Just before the tape is ripped off, Mr. Meanie kisses her sealed mouth. During the opening titles there is a 10 second clip of all the angels doing their take of the "Angels In Chains" episode. |
| Earth Girls Are Easy |
| Day: Monday May 04 2009 |
| Time: 5:00PM Central |
| Channel: EncoreWA |
| Title: Earth Girls Are Easy (1989) Medium: Movie Actress: Diane Stilwell Description: At the hospital, Geena Davis' character needs to borrow a nurse's uniform so she can sneak in to the operating room where her two-timing hubby is about to perform surgery. She threatens a bespectacled nurse (Ms. Stilwell) with a gun (really a water pistol), handgags her, and forces her into another patient's room where she is ordered to strip. A patient in the next bed is bandaged from head to toe and is unable (more like unwilling) to heed the nurse's plea for help. We next see Ms. Davis applying a small strip of semi-transparent tape over the nurse's mouth, her lips visible through the gag. You don't actually see her being tied up but is implied because her hands appear to be behind her back. The scene is very brief and only shows the frontal view of the nurse from her waist up while still wearing her bra. There is also a brief mmmph when the tape is applied. Don't blink or you'll miss the entire scene, which occurs in the last 30 minutes. |
