SNL - A Dysfunctional Thanksgiving (Julia Louis-Dreyfus)

When Kate (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) returns from college to have Thanksgiving dinner with her family, she takes the opportunity to complain and yell about everything, from the food itself to her own name. She accuses her parents of being narrow minded and racist and storms upstairs to get her things and leave. Her father carries her back down and ties her to a chair with her book bag. When she yells he stuffs a turkey leg in her mouth, and the family sits back down to enjoy a much quieter Thanksgiving dinner.


















Family Matters - A Dark And Story Night (Kellie Shanygne Williams)

When the Winslow family, along with Steve Urkel and Waldo Faldo, is trapped inside during a blackout on Halloween Night, they decide to play a game of Pass The Ghost Story. The story is about Sir Stephen, The Duke Of Urkle, coming to the castle of Count Von Winslow. As Sir Stephen is checking out the room he would be staying in that night he stumbles across a peasant girl named Laura (who is also Laura from the normal cast, played by Kellie Shanygne Williams) chained to a wall and gagged. For a few moments she tries to get Sir Stephen's attention but when she does he still fails to ungag her, she eventually does it herself. (I apologize for the quality of the pictures. I could barley find any copies of the video. The only one I could find was this quality. I'll update this is I get a better version.)











I Love Lucy - The Diet (Unknown)

Lucy Wants to have a part in Ricky's act, but she has to lose 12 lbs to do it. When she goes in to audition she is greated by a woman (I'm not sure of the name of her character or who plays her, apparently they didn't put full cast in the credits back then :/ If anyone knows, please let me know) who says "if I knew they were looking for older women I would have brought my mother." Later on in the episode Lucy does get into the act but afterwards finds out she can't continue because shes suffering from malnutrition from all she did to lose the weight so fast. As the doctors take her away she hands Ethel a key and motions to the closet behind her. Ethel opens the closet to find the woman from earlier tied up and gagged inside. The woman struggles as the episode ends.











I Love Lucy - The Amateur Hour (Lucille Ball)

Lucy (played by Lucille Ball) agrees to babysit a little boy named Jimmy after his mother offers $5 an hour to do it. After some trouble she learns that Jimmy is actually twins, Jimmy and Timmy. The two boys convince Lucy to play "Here We Go Round The Maypole" which ends in her tied up with the ropes. The game turns into a game of "Cowboys And Indians" as the boys decide to burn the tied up Lucy at the stake. As she calls for help one of the boys stuffs an apple in her mouth. Eventually the boys' mother calls to talk to Lucy and demands she be let go. One boy instructs the other to take the gag out so Lucy can talk to her. An angry Lucy changes her tone once she finds out the mother will let her keep the $100 prize at an amateur contest if she takes the boys there that night.
