Record number: 94 Title: McMillan and Wife Medium: TV Series Actress: Susan Saint James Description: Episode: "Man Without a Face" (3.4) Around the 62' mark in the HALLMARK airing, Sally answers the door and is quickly handgagged by her assailant for a relatively lengthy period (there's an ad break between the beginning of the handgag and the remainder of it). She then waits along with him for Mac to call, and after speaking to him is cleavegagged with a hanky about 72' in. After another commercial break she's shown, now alone, seated in a wicker chair, her wrists bound behind it and ankles tied together. She hops the chair over to the phone, picks up the receiver with her mouth, dials with a pencil held between her teeth, and tries to convince the operator through the snug cleave that hers is an emergency situation, to no avail. At that point Mildred arrives home and frees her. The sequence ends around 80' in. She's wearing loafers, bellbottoms, and a unbuttoned shirt over a T, with her hair up. |

| Hidden Away |
| Day: Monday August 05 2013 |
| Time: 8:00pm Eastern |
| Channel: Lifetime |
| Record number: 16860 Title: Hidden Away (2013) Medium: TV Movie Actress: Elisabeth Röhm aka Elisabeth Rohm; Allie Gonino Description: Typical made-for-tv movie, with a wife being pursued by the abusive husband that she has left behind. In this case, Elisabeth is working for the runaway wife, and becomes the target after finding out the wife’s backstory, and being given some evidence which the husband wants. At 1:20 into the movie (including commercials), the husband ambushes real estate agent Elisabeth at an open house, and takes her out to an abandoned mine in a national park in the hatch of his car. The scene ends as he opens the hatch to look at her in the car. She is wearing a gray skirt suit and boots, and is gagged with duct tape. Her wrists are tied in front of her (loosely). We do not see her again until 1:34, when the husband returns to the mine, and we see that he has left her sitting inside, still tied and gagged the same way. The scene goes to black as he moves in on her menacingly. At 1:41, Allie, who has just discovered her father-the killer, is alive, realizes that he is also a crazy psychopath who has attacked her mom’s fiancée and is planning on killing him. Allie and the fiancée are both taken to the mine, and tied in the same manner as Elisabeth had been – wrists front, ankles tied, duct tape gagged. Allie’s gag is peeled off for a brief conversation, but is replaced when she starts screaming at the nutcase. The runaway wife shows up with a ransom to save Allie, but also has a can of pepper spray which is used on the psycho’s face. While he is screaming in pain, the wife frees Allie and they run off – finding the still gagged corpse of Elisabeth while running through the cave. Good points: Lots of close-ups on the two actresses, and some of the shots show the tape nicely pressed over lips – especially Allie’s. Not-so-good points: Wrists so loosely tied in front of them that even if they weren’t trying to escape, the ropes would have fallen off if they breathed too hard. |

Record number: 7238 Title: Farscape Medium: TV Series Actress: Claudia Black Description: Episode: "Premiere" (1.1) In the opening story of the series Aeryn Sun (Black), a female 'Peacekeeper,' is captured, together with John Crichton (the astronaut, played by Ben Browder). Aeryn's hands are tied in front with cloth. Later she is locked, with Crichton, in metal cuffs - more substantial than ordinary handcuffs. However, the annoying film-makers keep putting other figures in front of her so we see very little of her cuffed wrists and she is eventually released (away from our prying eyes, too). Would have been so much better if we could have seen more of her cuffed wrists. |
