Two guys torturing each other


I'm fairly certain it was a recurring Liquid Television bit. Like the Aeon Flux bits, one episode put all the parts together in a complete run.

There were two (identical?) men viewed in 3/4 view. In the complete run, it starts when one of them tweaks the other's nose. This starts a series of one-upmanship of them doing things to each other, each reverting back to normal after what was done.

In one, the guy takes a rope and stitches it through every orifice of the other guy's head: feeding it into his ear, out his mouth, up the nose, out the eye, in the other eye, out the nose, into the mouth, and out the other ear, effectively stitching through every facial orifice. Then the end is tied off to something off screen, you hear a car start up and drive off, and a large rock is pulled in and out through the guys head pulled by the rope.

At the end of the continuous run, the second guy just tweaks the first guy's nose like his was at the start. The first guy breaks down crying and the second guy comforts him apologetically.

No dialog, the only voice performance was the last bit of crying.

The individual bits I think were just used as bumpers between other bits.

I can't remember what it was called, or if it had a name, or who did it!

Yes, that's it: "Push Comes to Shove"! Thanks to you, I even found a page referencing the very scene: "Be sure to check out the scene where a car pulls a large rock through every orifice in the man's head."

The full video of it is no longer available on YouTube, but he does have DVDs for sale!

Thank you, Billy321!
