Alan has got himself in one fantastic bind. Hahaha. See what I did there? Just kidding. He's trying to untie the rope behind his hands. We are zoooooooming in on a shot of his upper torso and handsome, duct taped mouth...and face. He writhes and protests in grunts of complaint( he can't really speak his frustrations since his mouth is duct taped. Haha). He closes his eyes as if he's trying to block the whole situation out. But of course that doesn't work. So he opens them and grunts in protest. Oh poor Alan and the ties that bind.
