why is this one of my earliest memories?!

What was this scene from? Early 1990's, TV, free channels, Nevada. Soap opera?

When I was three, four, or five, I remember seeing this scene on our old TV that only got the free channels. Somebody was tied on a bed in a motel room, and a woman was trying to kill them by forcing this giant mass of pills down their throat. She said that the person had to eat them quickly because she had to go. She had on leather gloves. What was it? It kind of looked like it was a soap opera of some kind, but I can't be certain. It was the early nineties and probably midday to 6 pm when I saw it.

Best answer: I can't believe no onw has answered this yet. Your mentioning soap operas made me think of a scene in an episode of Days of Our Lives back in the 90s. A character named Billie, then played by Krista Allen, was kidnapped, tied to a bed, and forced to take drugs (though she was injected with heroin). I can't find a clip, but I remember a very similar scene to the one you are describing. I would have sworn it was earlier, but it was early in Allen's tenure as Billie so it must have been around 1996 or so.

It's a longshot, but maybe this can get you started...
