Chained to a Bed	comment	It's a tie game with no score. A guy meets a cute girl. They have drinks, maybe lunch; witty banter is exchanged. She takes him up to a hotel room. She produces rope (or sometimes handcuffs) and suggests he be chained to the bed and kinkiness will ensue. The guy always enthusiastically agrees. At which point she cheerfully robs him blind and leaves, leaving the robbed (and naked) guy stuck until someone finds him. A prime example of Comedic Sociopathy in that the victim is not only robbed (as in a mugging), but deeply humiliated in a public way while the trope is (almost always) played entirely for laughs at his expense. Sometimes the setup is used for dramatic, rather than comedic effect, as the person who was chained to the bed is now helpless and at the mercy of the person who tied them up or whoever discovers them. In the comic example the victim is nearly Always Male; in the dramatic example the victim might be male or female. If it is a woman chained to a bed it's much more likely that it's deadly serious. Compare Chained to a Rock, Bound and Gagged, and Shameful Strip. Overlaps with Kinky Cuffs and The Schlub Pub Seduction Deduction. Often a certain type of fanservice or a Casual Kink. Sometimes, it's part of a Hollywood Exorcism.

During a meeting with Irene Adler, he ends up blacking out after drinking the doctored wine she offered him. When he awakens, he finds she stripped him naked and handcuffed him to a bedpost, with only a pillow strategically placed over his crotch. And then to add insult to injury, she left the key to the cuffs under that pillow.

When Marisou regains consciousness, she realize she's chained by her wrists and ankles to a bed in Dr. Suga's basement, and spends most of her remaining screentime (until the last chapter) shackled. There's a brief moment where Taburo, disgusted with Dr. Suga's actions, contemplates on releasing Marisou so that she can be his witness in exposing Suga's actions, but then Marisou starts having her visions and rants aloud about how Suga's about to cause the apocalypse, at which point Taburo changed his mind.

In Season One after 'happy pills' inexplicably caused a temporary reversion to evil—apparently if he isn't really happy his soul goes into temporary suspension until the fake euphoria wears off?—and they overpowered him, Angel woke up extremely chained to his bed. He and his friends established that yes, he was really okay now and yes, they were willing to forgive him for scaring them out of their wits and nearly killing them. Then they walk off and leave him there indefinitely. Played for Laughs.

When Sarah finds him, her immediate reaction is to photograph him rather than try to rescue him. The eventual result is that Casey breaks the headboard off and beats down his captors with a piece of wood. And then happens to Chuck in "Chuck vs. the Suburbs". Casey is later chained to a radiator (no seduction in that case). He takes it with him, and uses it to hit someone.

What's interesting is the massive amounts of Dude, Not Funny! reaction from the fan forum. It was very much implied to be non-consensual (as Dominic claims to have had "no choice in the matter"), so treating it as comedy (compared to the male-on-female rape that is treated as drama) has some Unfortunate Implications.

The girl who did that to Duncan was a bounty hunter named Reagan Cole who uses sexuality as part of her MO to capture her prey. Once he was tied up, she blew a whistle and turned him over to the authorities, who were waiting in the next room. When she found out Duncan was going to be beheaded instead of imprisoned (it turned out Duncan had had relations with a duke's wife), she helped him escape. He got her back afterwards by kissing her, then tying her up to a wagon wheel and leaving her. It happens to Richie too. The poor boy never did have any luck with his women.

The book gets away with it because the guy who does it is just trying to keep her out of the way so he can search her apartment for something he believes she has. He ogles her a bit, but it's presented as being mostly playfulness (they have "history" together), as well as causing her to get embarrassed and cover up rather than make trouble.

She then leaves the room and a man dressed as Batman jumps out of the closet and rapes him. That's it. A similar urban legend is about a man tying his wife to the bed so he can play a "Batman saves the girl" role play scene. But during the fun he jumped onto the bed and smashed his head on the ceiling fan, knocking him unconscious. The woman had to call for help until the police kicked in the door to save them.

Judy's ex-husband Dick catches her in the bedroom with Frank attached to this security system and thinks that she's Sleeping with the Boss and into BDSM. At the end of film, prior to the credits, a flashback scene has Frank Hart accidentally triggering the restraining system when he thinks he's using the remote to change the channel on his TV.

So he asks his roommate to handcuff him to his bed so he doesn't give in to the urge to "help himself". He wakes up just in time to discover his ex-girlfriend broke into the apartment and is raping him while unconscious just to win a bet, and of course his Love Interest enters the scene just in time to get the wrong idea. He has to apologize to her, with the logical inference that if you're a man who's raped trying to fulfill your vow of chastity, it's your own fault.

Xander is the one to suggest that the rope might be for "kinky sexy fun"; the girl claims she just wants to suspend a canoe in her garage.

Chained to a Bed / int_eeac804a	comment	Emergency! In "The One You Least Expect," John Gage gets mixed up with an abusive girlfriend who beats him and ties him to the bed as "a lesson". Roy shows up shortly after and rescues him but John has to help trap the woman because proving everything isn't easy with a small statured woman. It works, but not before he's tied up again and stabbed with a pair of scissors. In "Counterblow", it's even more serious. John reports a cop for abuse and his girlfriend seduces John. She beats him and leaves him tied to the bed. As he and Roy are off shift, it's not until he doesn't show up for work 2 days later that he's found, dehydrated, nearly dead, in his trashed apartment. Naturally, it isn't a pretty sight. The woman was working with a Dirty Cop and he keeps stalking Johnny until he gets into a crash as the police chase him.

She then runs away with his clothes. While he is technically not chained to anything, the effect is exactly the same. A variation occurs, AGAIN involving Chandler, later in the show, with Rachel finding Chandler handcuffed to a chair in her boss' office, whom he's dating. Cue him insisting she uncuff him, and her wondering whether it's worth the risk of her boss knowing she was in there and firing her (he's persuaded to stay when she promises to be "very generous" when her friends ask about this). Chandler later gets revenge by leaving the boss chained up, in her slip, for Rachel to discover.

Boyd Crowder ends up doing this to Quarles near the end of Season 3. He messes it up however by having two Oxycontin addicts be guards, and leaving a nice bottle of the drug in the room. In season three, Quarles binds Brady to a bed and tortures him to death. The crime was part of Quarles' long history of abusing male hustlers.
