Flashpoint
Day: Wednesday September 26 2012
Time: Midnight & 2:00 PM Eastern
Channel: ION
Record number: 15855

Title: Flashpoint
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Rachel Skarsten

Description: Episode: "Blue On Blue" (4.15)

The episode opens with Rachel being lured over to see her ex-boyfriend, who actually is a criminal with a nasty grudge. He forces her to call her new boyfriend, who is a cop with the special unit where her brother is also assigned.

As soon as the trap is sprung and the cop is being held at gunpoint, the ex says to his accomplice “She’s done, tie her up”.

After the opening credits, Rachel, wearing white blouse and jeans, is tied to a chair with her hands behind her back. The cop is chained and handcuffed in front of a computer so that he can hack into the police evidence locker security system. The action shifts back and forth from the attempted break-in at the locker and the apartment where the pair are being held until 27 minutes into the episode (including commercials); when the bad guy catches Rachel and the cop talking and order the accomplice to “shut her trap”, which he accomplishes with duct tape.

The action continues to shift back and forth with Rachel tied and gagged in the chair for a few minutes, but when the cop balks at providing any more help, Rachel is roughly pulled out of the chair and threatened. The cop backs down and agrees to continue helping, and Rachel is pushed to the floor. She spends most of the rest of the episode laying helpless and quiet on her side, and the police stop the break in and figure out where the couple is being held.

At 55 minutes, the cops bust in, and the bad guy pulls Rachel to her feet to be used as a human shield. The scene lasts for a couple of minutes, with several good close ups as the cops finally rush the bad guy and rescue her.

Hercules
Day: Wednesday September 26 2012
Time: 11:00 PM Eastern
Channel: The Hub
Record number: 4200

Title: Hercules: The Legendary Journeys
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Tracy Lindsey, Jennifer Ward-Lealand

Description: Episode: "All That Glitters" (2.2)

Hercules travels to renew his friendship with King Midas. He discovers that the King has let his love for money go to his head and has entered into a gambling house venture with the beautiful but evil Voluptua (Ward-Lealand). Among the events people wager on are boys walking walking a tightrope over a bed of spikes, brutal boxing matches, etc.

Hercules' presence stirs a moral reaction in Midas. No longer willing to lend his name and cooperation to Voluptua's gambling establishment, he quits his post. In return, he is beaten senseless by Voluptua's chief thug and thrown into a cage. When Hercules finds him, Midas is bound and gagged with a crossbow aimed at his head and the trigger mechanism cocked and attached to a small wooden ball in his daughter Flaxen's (Lindsey) mouth. {Yes, very similiar to the scene in The Perils of Sweet Gwendolyne in the Land of Yik-Yak.} Flaxen's wrists are bound tightly behind her back.

Voluptua offers Hercules a challenge -- in order to free Midas and Flaxen, he must defeat five adversaries, all before a burning fuse releases the crossbow's trigger. Good triumphs over evil, of course, and Flaxen grabs Voluptua when she tries to flee with a bag of gold. Flaxen crosses Voluptua's wrist behind her back and ties her hands with a scarf, when she starts to rip her dress for more cloth bindings, Hercules scolds her saying, "You promised never to take your clothes off in public again!" Spoilsport.

The action starts around 40 minutes into the episode (including commercials) and goes on for the next 15 minutes. Most of the footage follows Hercules and his battle with the thugs, but there are numerous short clips of Flaxen, her bound wrists, the burning fuse, etc., interspersed. The scene of Flaxen binding Voluptua is more suggested than actually visible, but it still counts, IMHO.

Big Trouble In Little China
Day: Wednesday September 26 2012
Time: 6:15 AM & 6:05 PM Eastern
Channel: Encore-Action
Record number: 169

Title: Big Trouble in Little China (1986) aka John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China
Medium: Movie
Actress: Suzee Pai, Kim Cattrall

Description: Ms. Pai is shown tied down to a bed and cleavegagged with a thick piece of terry cloth at around the 30' mark (no commercials). There are several nice close-ups. As she is about to be wisked away by the demon, we can see that Ms. Pai's shoes have been removed during her captivity. There is a close up of her bound stocking feet when the demon cuts the rope that ties them to the bottom of the bed.

Around the 50' mark, Ms. Cattrall is shown in a cage laying on her stomach in a strict hogtie. She is also very tightly cleave-gagged with black cloth. Her hands are bound behind her back, and her ankles are tied together. A rope extends from her ankles over her left shoulder, around her neck, then back over her right shoulder and down to her bound hands, putting her in a hogtie. After she is rescued by Kurt Russell, she flees the warehouse with her gag still in place. No mention of Ms. Cattrall's hogtie or why she is the only one tied up in the audio commentary track

While the others drive away from the warehouse, Gracie (Kim Cattrall) is again grabbed by Lo-Pan in beast-form, and gets placed with her wrists slapped in chains bolted to the floor.

Note: On the Blu-ray and possible the dvd release, there is a deleted scene in the special features. One of the scenes shows a deleted scene of Ms. Pai. The footage is from old stock and some betamax footage. The camera plans up from Ms. Pai's feet to her head as the lady tells her sorry for the bruise on her face.

The Undertaker's Wedding
Day: Wednesday September 26 2012
Time: 1:30 PM Eastern
Channel: Flix
Record number: 412

Title: The Undertaker's Wedding (1997)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Kari Wuhrer

Description: Kari, wearing a black minidress, black tights and shoes, gets conked on the head and drops like a rock. She is then put over her captor's shoulder and carried out to a hearse, where she is put in the front seat. Her hands and ankles are tied, and in a rarity for a mainstream movie, so are her elbows and knees (albeit, loosely). She is gagged with a white OTM strip of linen.

The hearse drives off with her yelling through her gag at the driver, who finally pulls down the gag so that they can have a normal conversation.

Scene occurs towards the end of the movie.
