Two clips from the upcoming episode of "Bored to Death" have been released. In one clip, Jonathan is threatened and hung upside down by two men from S & M who kidnapped him to find out about their stolen hard drive's whereabout. The other clip shows George and Ray's visit to Howard the proprietor of a store for spy gadgets.

The episode is called "The Gowanus Canal Has Gonorrhea!" and airs this Sunday, October 10. George worries about remaining "intact" after getting some sobering news from his new urologist, Dr. Kenwood. The S & M henchmen who kidnap Jonathan demand a ransom which calls "GI" George & Ray to action.

"There's a lot more action, and the stakes are higher," Jason Schwartzman at the beginning of second season told MTV. "In a couple of [episodes], I could almost die, which really wasn't the case last year. At worst, I could have gotten beat up or mauled, but this year, death is a drop away."
