Time: 10:00 PM Eastern |
Channel: NBC |
Record number: 15515 Title: Law & Order: Los Angeles aka Law & Order: LA Medium: TV Series Actress: Alla Korot Description: Episode: "Plummer Park" (1.21) At approx. 25 min into the episode, including commercials, the detectives view a ransom video with Alla being threatened by thugs with her mouth sealed by duct tape. The video is clearly shown on a computer screen, and at one point they zoom in to give a clear close-up of her gagged face. Two minutes later she is rescued by the police (they work fast in LA), but she is no longer gagged and though she later says she was chained to the floor, there is no clear shot of any restraints. Editor Note: This episode was not originally aired in sequence. Epguides lists this as ep. 1.21, epguides decription lists this as ep. 1.18, yet Skeet Ulrich was killed off in 1.9 and was shown in this episode. |

The Transporter |
Day: Saturday June 11 2011 |
Time: 9:00 PM Eastern |
Channel: MoMax |
Record number: 7949 Title: The Transporter (2002) Medium: Movie Actress: Qi Shu aka Shu Qi Description: About 17 minutes into the movie the transporter hears a lot of mmmphing from the trunk (aka boot) of his car. A few moments later he opens the trunk and Qi Shu's tape gagged face pokes out, the rest of her body in a bag. He puts a small hole in the tape so that Qi Shu can drink through a straw. When he takes out a knife for making the hole in the tape there is a lot of mmphhing. At about 19 minutes she is let out of the bag and untied so she can go to pee (she had pointed out that she would have to do so in his car otherwise). She reaches to take the tape off her mouth but the transporter says "do you need your mouth to pee?" so she leaves it on. She escapes, he follows and recaptures her, puts the tape back over her mouth, ties her wrists in front and carries her over his shoulder to the car at about 22 minutes. He then delivers her to the mansion of a Crime Lord and we see the large sports type bag being taken from the car. He is given another delivery to make, but it turns out to be a time bomb, presumably intended to ensure his silence. By luck he survives and returns to seek vengeance. At about 32 minutes Qi Shu is shown tied to an office type chair, on wheels, hands behind, ankles together with rope and tape gagged. Some struggling and she propels the chair to the door when her guard leaves to investigate the commotion. The transporter disposes of the guards but finds that the Crime Lord has left. He leaves in a stolen car and at 34 minutes we see that she is on the back seat of the car, still tied to the chair. In irritated response to her mmphhing he takes her out of the car and drives off leaving her still tied to the chair in the middle of the road. Good views of her tied feet and alarmed look on her face, as he relents and reverses back rapidly, when she thinks he is intending to run her over. Still on the chair, she is placed in the trunk for the remainder of the journey. At about 36 minutes they arrive at the transporter's house, he wheels her in still tied to the chair. He asks her a few questions and re-gags her twice when the answers are more than just what he wants to hear, nice mmpphing then. Decent length scenes. At about 37 minutes he cuts her free and she is seen rubbing her ankles. He says he needs sleep and tells her she can go; she decides to stay as she needs his help. Perhaps some may like the gesture the next morning when she has made breakfast for him and is talking he says "I like it quiet in the morning". She agrees and starts telling about her liking for quiet, then realises she should stop talking and makes a 'zipping-up' gesture with her finger across her mouth, at about 43 minutes (times for a 1 hour 45 minute broadcast with adverts). |
