Austin Powers has followed Number Two into the toilets of a Las Vegas casino. He is soon joined by a loud Texas man, who sits in the cubicle to the left of Austin. "Have a good one," he tells Austin.
As Austin gets settled into business, the wall behind Austin slides up (I wasn't aware this was a design feature of any toilet, but I must be mistaken) to reveal Patty O'Brien, one of Dr. Evil's assassins, who promptly attempts to strangle Austin with his 'Lucky Charms' (it is his trademark weapon of choice, a bracelet - sickos!). Austin manages to block his neck just in time.
Hearing Austin's struggling, the man confuses it with a rather nasty case of extreme constipation and begins to give words of comfort such as "you gotta relax, don't force it; gonna blow out an o-ring and, drop a lung!". Austin gets raised from the seat by Patty, in an attempt to get his bracelet past Austin's fingers. This proves to be a bad idea, as Austin delivers a backwards head butt, dazing Patty, before grabbing Patty and putting his head down the toilet.
His choice of interrogation question is a double entendre par excellance, "Who does Number Two work for?" he repeatedly asks Patty, while continuing to hold his head down the toilet. The man chimes in, "right, buddy, you show that turd who's boss!" Confusing Patty's choking for something else he offers the friendly advice of "just grab a hold of something, bit your lip and give it hell", before the encouraging "we're gonna get through this!"
As Patty's choking increases, the man recommends "a courtesy flush" because "that sounds pretty nasty". Austin promptly gives the toilet a flush, drowning Patty, as the 'Lucky Charms' fall to the floor.
Exiting the toilet, the man sees Patty's head down the toilet. "Jesus Christ, boy! What did you eat!?" he asks with a smirk.
So much for "Lucky Charms"!
This wasn't really "One on One," but what of "Strangulation"?
Glad you seen you kept this mostly unedited (there are few bits, but they make it a bit better than my original). I must have done something right. I'm glad you kept the dialouge that I painstakingly quoted. It's what really make the scene.
I hope the screenshots I sent for this wasn't too much trouble.
I do ponder the One on One, as that wasn't one I checked as it wasn't a traditional bout of fisticuffs.
Mr Briggs, I don't think Strangulation counts, as Austin was the one trying to be strangled. It was just a pure drowning death.

Patty wasn't the one being strangled, however.
Yes, the quotes are what make this death memorable, i love the "who does number two work for?" line.
wrt one on one, i have added this because there is a definite scuffle to gain mastery over the other, it culminates in Austin knocking Patty out and then dreowning him, so i felt it was worthy of a mention.
As Matt says, i don't think we should list this as strangulation, as Austin is the one being strangled, and obviously he survives.
Matt - have not checked the images folder for a while, but all screen grabs are gratefully accepted and will be added.

They should be in your e-mail, along with several other batches of screenshots to go with other write-ups. They are comprehensive and as a space saving exercise, I've put them in ZIP files. They are mostly JPEG, except the Doom ones which are BMP (oops...).
Note from Mouseburger: yes Matt, the images are there - i will add them in in due course
Are you sure you should include his "Glory-Title" middle name?
yes indeed, because as he says, "Danger is his middle name". yeah, baby, yeeeaah!
Does anyone know where I can get the clip for this scene, The show that turd whos boss scene??
