He takes Joy down into her basement. She is dressed only in her full figured girdle as he her to sit on a chair. Then he brings out rope and ties her up. With restraining her out of the way, now it is time to shut her up. He stuffs her mouth with panties and uses one of her husband's neckties to cleave gag her. After he is sure Joy is well bound and gagged, he leaves her to struggle. Later he returns and puts Joy on the floor. Not satisfied that the gag is keeping her quiet enough, he re-stuffs her mouth and then wraps tape around her face and over her mouth to re-gag her.
