Hawkeye (and Kate)

The new Hawkeye show on Disney + isn't what I thought it was--or at least what I hoped it would be. I was hoping for a more harder edge, street-level action series, like how the Netflix Daredevil show was (and, IMHO, Daredevil remains one of the best superhero TV shows ever made). But three episodes in, the light-hearted, more cutsie-pie take Hawkeye has is growing on me.

Speaking of which, in the third episode, there is bondage. Kate Bishop (the always good Hailee Steinfeld) is captured by the bad guys and is tied to a toy riding horse (the bad guys' lair is a former toy store). Only her wrists are bound, she's fully dressed (not BF), and she's tied up with Hawkeye. The scene is played for laughs, like when one of the bad guys seeks advice from Kate concerning his girlfriend. So, yeah, not a perfect bondage scene (for me), but fun stuff overall.
