Record number: 15583 Title: Born Bad (2011) Medium: Movie Actress: Bonnie Dennison; Meredith Monroe Description: Typical thriller with a "good girl" dating the wrong guy. In this case, Bonnie is grabbed by her jealous boyfriend at just past an hour into the movie (all times from the basic cable broadcast including commercials). He slaps her to the floor and rants at her while she cries. He then forces her outside and into the passenger seat of a car, where he duct tapes her wrists in front of her and duct tapes her mouth. After a brief cutaway, we come back to the car where he is still yelling and driving. A phone call from her previous boyfriend is used to arrange a rendezvous, and she watches helplessly as the psycho beats the old boyfriend to a pulp. The psycho gets back into the car after the beating, and continues driving and ranting while Bonnie sits there helplessly. At approx 1hr15 min. in, he pulls up to Bonnie's house and leaves her tied up in the car while he breaks in. Surprising her family, he forces mom Meredith to tape up the two guys in the house, and then head butts her, knocking her cold. He then tapes her wrists in front of her, tapes her legs and tape gags her. He comes out to the car and peels off Bonnie's tape gag for a short conversation, and then puts it back on. She is left alone while the psycho and his newly arrived friends go off to ransack the house. Bonnie manages to get free of the tape, and rather than going to get the police or help, decides to sneak into the house. She crawls past Meredith and the guys, still tied and gagged on the couch, and goes into the kitchen. Grabbing a knife, she sneaks back into the living room and begins to cut Meredith loose. Caught in the act, a short struggle ensues, and at the end, Meredith is free and running off into the night, and Bonnie is once again a prisoner. She is taped up, more securely than before, and then she and the guys are left on the garage floor. One of the thugs cuts the tape on her legs for an attempted rape, and in the ensuing struggle she manages to disable him and get free. |

Record number: 12000 Title: Engaged to Kill (2006) Medium: Movie Actress: Maria del Mar Description: In the opening minutes, del Mar is handgagged from behind by her abductors. After the ransom call, our damsel is cleave gagged with a white cloth onscreen. She is already taped hands behind - supposedly, we never actually see her bonds - , and blindfolded with a black cloth. Her female captor Daniella Evangelista temporarily removes the gag and even unties her for a moment (blindfold stays, though), then she's re-gagged again and her hands are taped together again, this time in front. A few minutes later, the unobserved damsel makes use of the fact that she is still bound hands in front, frees herself and escapes from a motor home. After her abduction ordeal, at about the 44-minute mark, del Mar is hand-gagged from behind by a black-gloved home intruder. |

| Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull (2008) |
| Day: Sunday August 14 2011 |
| Time: 6:22PM E.T. |
| Channel: USA |

Record number: 13450 Title: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) Medium: Movie Actress: Karen Allen Description: Karen Allen reprises her role as Marion Ravenwood from the 1st movie Raiders of the Lost Ark. Obviously, she's 25 years older now, but still very pretty. The scene is deliberately very similar to the first one. Marion & Indy are captured by the bad guys and have their hands tied behind their backs (never shown) and they begin arguing, loudly. The guard finally has enough and when Marion ignores his demands to shut up, he gets a cloth and cleave gags her onscreen. Marion continues to argue as she is being gagged, almost not even paying attention to the guard at all. As we can make out most of what she's saying, it shows how ineffective cleave gags are. The guard may have the same fate in mind for Indy, but doesn't get the chance. Marion is ungagged onscreen in the next scene. Good lighting, close up shot. |

At 4:24, Eva gets a coat thrown over her and is then seen tethered to the floor of a van by her duct-taped wrists, with her ankles also taped, and tape gagged. A quick flash cut of the blonde victim, and they go to commerical. At 9:23 they are back from commercial, and there is a shot of her tethered on the floor of the van, and the best view we get of her gag. 10:57 - the still gagged blonde is now on the autopsy table, and they peel off the tape while discussing the case. 12:05 - Back inside the van, Eva peels off the tape gag and starts to have a conversation with her captor. In between sentences, she starts biting thru the tape around her wrists. Her captor, a convicted sex offender-murderer, explains that he has kidnapped her to force her to help him prove his innocence. 14:10 - More conversation in the van, and more biting at the tape. 20:31 - She actually gets her wrists free, and attacks the driver, crashing the van. There are some more flashbacks at 30:20, and 54:00, but they are very fast cuts. (All listed episode times are from the original network broadcast, including commercials. They will vary for DVD and syndication releases.) |

| Claudia Cardinale is bound. |
|
Record number: 2018 Title: The Professionals (1966) Medium: Movie Actress: Claudia Cardinale Description: In this Western set in the early 20th century, a Texas oilman hires four adventurers to rescue his wife, whom he claims has been kidnapped by a Mexican bandito. She, however, doesn't want to be rescued but since the adventurers are professionals, they're honor bound to complete the contract, no matter what the cost. About an hour and fifteen minutes in, they attack the bandito's camp and spirit her away into the night, Burt Lancaster lifting her over his shoulder into a railcar and then tying her hands behind her back. The scene then cuts to the next morning, where they rendezvous with a compatriot on a train that, unbeknownst to them, has been captured by the bandits. After another furious gunfight which follows Lancaster using Cardinale, her hands still bound, as a human shield, she's carried over his shoulder into the locomotive where she's tied standing to the side of the cab. A few minutes later she's shown on horseback with her hands tied in front for a couple of shots. She isn't gagged during any of the scenes. |
