Mute People

I need help too, I have this story where I, uh, I mean, the character robs the Wells Fargo in the Albertson's where my brother works. What is the best way for someone to incapacitate a bank guard? Oh, and how do you disable those silent alarm thingys? Basically, a step by step, or "fool proof" plan to steal all the money in a grocery store bank branch would just be so helpful.

On a side note, if anyone needs a financial backer for their next film, I am coming into some money pretty soon, just hit me a PM with your synopsis and your ski mask size and we'll talk!
 
i wonder how many ridiculous, pointless torture scenes you can fit in an indie movie

i think i shall find out
 
Well like for example, say that the main character wants to buy a bunch of bananas, but they're $1.59 a pound

but he only has $1.45 so he tortures the clerk until she gives him a price break. i'm thinking some "stealers wheel" kind of thing. And then he wants a taco but the taqueria is closing so he tortures the guys closing the shop until they make him some tacos. chicken tacos. and not the boiled chicken, he wants grilled.
 
Easiest way to achieve this in real life would be a simple Tracheotomy. That way you create a new airway below the vocal chords rendering the person unable to make sounds. If the hole is blocked the person can speak but normally the air will take the easiest route. It also fits in with the whole torture idea. And it can be done with a ballpoint pen or even a straw:

it would be hard to drug someone in such a way that they just lose the ability to utter sounds. swallowing a sedative would sedate far more than the vocal chords - the throat would probably collapse choking the person do death.

Whatever happened to the old gag?

That just reminded me of the sewed up lips thing. That was always creepy.
Used again in The Twilight Zone without the stitching. Still, the ol' voodoo shrunked head/lips thing...
