IMPORTANT: The models in this video, like most of The Last Laugh's models, speak FRENCH, or at least its quaint Quebecois dialect. 

Kathy is sitting on the floor against a table, her wrists tied to the sides, away from her. Goldenmoon (from now on referred to as "GM") appears on top of the table. She's wearing an outfit that's a bit goth, with colorful hair extensions. She reaches over to tickle Kathy's armpits, waist and belly. Kathy's laugh is somewhat unusual, rather high-pitched, kind of like a little girl's giggle. GM eventually joins her on the floor. She adds Kathy's little feet to her list of targets, but this particular scene is mostly about the upper body, and GM only spends about 30 seconds on the feet for now. 

GM, who has kicked off her shoes, sits behind Kathy and wraps her legs around her waist. This position is perfect to easily reaching all of Kathy's upper body weak spots. GM also discovers that her friend is very sensitive right above her knees. After a while she moves more to the side so she can see Kathy's reactions better. After all, getting to see the fruits of your labor can be very satisfying. 

Payback is sweet as GM has her shoes removed by Kathy, waiting for her own stocked feet to get attended to. The audition we did a few days earlier suggested that her feet might not be the best tickling targets, but it must have been a fluke, because it turns out they're perfectly adequate after all. Kathy has to experiment a bit to get GM going at first, but it quickly gets worse for GM as Kathy gets the hang of it, finding new tricks and weak spots. Fingers work just fine, but a comb proves to be quite effective as well. GM, laughing, says the comb treatment isn't fun. Kathy disagrees. Switching back to fingers, Kathy explores a weakness at the base of GM's toes. 

I lend a hand during part of the second half of the scene. I take care of the left foot while Kathy concentrates on the right. She appears to have a little more freedom with her hands, since they're resting on top of the stocks, but in reality they're cuffed behind the stocks and she can't reach over. When she says that the sensation is a bit worse on Kathy's side due to her having longer nails, I go fetch the comb to make things more equal. I ask GM what part of her foot tickles the most. She answers that there's no way she's going to tell me. No problem, I can find out on my own. 

I introduce GM to my trusty electric toothbrush, which takes a real shine to her toes. I let Kathy have fun with it while I operate the camera to get better shots of what she's doing to GM. The toothbrush is bad enough by itself, but Kathy makes it even worse by digging the nails of the other hand into GM's sole. I come back at the end, my partner and myself each armed with a comb.

It was fun tickling GM while it lasted, but Kathy finds herself in a vulnerable situation once again. Two tables have been placed a few feet apart and a long padded stick makes a bridge between them. Kathy is resting on her back between the tables, her wrists and ankles cuffed to the stick. It's kind of like she's suspended, but her weight rests on the floor. Her feet are especially exposed (her big toes tied together, no less), and that's where GM spends most of her time. 

As before, Kathy's laughter is pretty unusual. It's a mix of little girl giggles, squeals, and a variety of other weird sounds, including something that sounds a bit like a monkey. She also makes many highly amusing faces throughout her ordeal. This is all caused by a combination of fingers, a comb and an electric toothbrush that GM uses with great pleasure. Kathy tells her that she's mean, but GM assures her that she's just doing her job. Yeah, right. The scene goes on for about 9 minutes and ends when Kathy finally manages to free her toes, which have been getting looser for some time. 

The second half of Last Laugh He features a completely different setting: my old apartment. Also, GM wears casual clothes and sports a relatively down-to-earth hairdo (but not hair color), as opposed to the more exotic look she had before. 

GM is kneeling on a chair, hugging the backrest, her ankles secured to the sides of the seat. Kathy pulls off GM's right sock and tickles her foot a bit. When she tosses the left sock away, it lands on my camcorder, hanging in front of the lens, in an amusing blooper. At first she has some trouble following the movements of GM's wiggling feet. To stabilize them a bit, she sits at the edge of the chair, resting her back against GM's butt. While GM can still move her feet, somehow this position makes it easier for Kathy to keep up with them. 

GM's feet are reasonably ticklish, but there are times when she's not the "laugh out loud" type of ticklee (like in this particular scene). Her verbal reactions are usually moderate, with some semi-silent periods, like she's on the verge of laughing out loud but not quite. Curious to see what damage she can cause in other areas, Kathy turns her attention to GM's sides. It would appear that GM is more sensitive on her upper body than her feet, at least at this point of the shoot (Kathy has better success later during the shoot) 

Still, Kathy suspects that there's more she can do with the feet, so she goes back there. While she's playing GM's foot like a violin with a comb, I add my contribution by messing with GM's toes on the other foot. Kathy thinks it's a good idea and does the same with her comb. This is very annoying for GM, who warns us to let her toes alone. Seems like we found a weak spot on her feet. 

Before the scene is over, Kathy experiments with GM's upper body again, then finishes up with some more foot tickling

Seems like this shoot has a chair theme. Indeed, we're using another one, this one being an office-type swivelling chair. But GM doesn't sit on it. Instead, she's quite comfortable on my couch with her legs extended in front of her and her ankles tied to the armrests on each side of the chair. It's Kathy who sits on it, both to prevent GM from pushing it around and to have easy access to her feet on either side of her. GM's hands are free, but in her position they're more or less useless, especially when it comes to protecting her own feet. 

For some reason that I don't understand, GM turns out to be significantly more responsive to foot tickling in this scene compared to the previous one. Maybe it's the position, I don't know. In any case, Kathy has an easier time getting some good laughter out of her. GM fights back at one point, reaching Kathy's sides around the chair, startling her. But I remind GM that she's supposed to stay on her side of the chair and take the foot tickling like a big girl. 

Kathy gives GM's toes a taste of the electric toothbrush she just picked up, with neat effects. While GM is giggling from the bristles, Kathy gently bites her big toe. Possibly distracted for a moment, it takes GM a second to register and to react to this surprising new sensation. But it's just a quick experiment for now, and Kathy goes on wedging the vibrating toothbrush between GM's sensitive toes.

However, a bit later, I suggest that Kathy uses her secret weapon some more. She nibbles GM's toes and arch, getting a yelp and some of GM's loudest laughter so far. The reactions are a little different when Kathy tries licking instead. It tickles, and it does make GM laugh, but she also finds it a very strange, not exactly pleasant sensation. Wet and slimy, she says. Kathy gives it a try once in a while (remarking that it makes her feel like a dog), but mostly sticks to more standard tickling, so as to avoid weirding out GM too much. She drops her toothbrush and switches to fingers for the remainder of the scene. 

The ball is back in GM's camp for the last scene, as Kathy finds herself locked in stocks with her toes tied individually. She enters "little girl giggles mode" as she realizes just how helpless her feet are with her toes tied back. GM is quite happy about this. One can see that Kathy's big toes have turned purple very quickly. It's quite common when they're tied this way (though it's basically harmless), but I'm surprised how fast it happened in this case. In fact, to give her a chance, we decide to let her other toes free after a minute or so, which reduces the strain on her big toe, somehow (go figure). I also ask GM to turn off the TV in the background, which, as it turns out, was responsible for a minor but audible hiss in the recording. It's not heard during the rest of the scene. 

As the tickling continues, Kathy makes her usual weird sounds and goofy faces in addition to her unique laughter. GM finds out that Kathy's knees are very sensitive, but she doesn't play with them much because we don't want Kathy to get too loud (this scene was shot in my old apartment, which had bad sound-proofing). I help out a little bit with a comb to Kathy's feet. When I go back to handling the camcorder, GM picks up a hairbrush, which is hell for Kathy when the right spots are found, mostly on the balls of the feet. Kathy begs GM to stop because it makes her laugh like a monkey (Kathy's words, not ours). 

For the grand finale we try a position that I really wouldn't recommend to most people, as it's quite uncomfortable, requires a certain level of flexibility and can put a lot of strain on the ticklee. But Kathy is willing to give it a try, if only for a short while. She's on her back with her head close to the stocks, her legs swung behind her far enough that her ankles fit in the holes of the stocks, toes down. She actually has her knees on both sides of her head. She's obviously totally helpless. GM starts tickling her feet right away, as she knows Kathy won't be able to stand this position for very long. She finds the situation quite funny, but also worries about Kathy's safety, asking her to let her know when she's had enough. "Don't suffocate", she warns her. But Kathy knows her own limits and lets the tickling go for a little while. We stop after about 30 seconds so that Kathy doesn't hurt herself, but it turns out to be a very interesting and amusing experiment while it lasts.
