When someone is badly injured and you need to get that across, show him post-accident partly or completely encased in plaster casts and/or bandages. Usually, they'll be in a hospital bed, with maybe one or two arms or legs suspended, and completely immobilised. If the tone of the work is lighter or more comedic, expect it to be played for laughs. For example, screams muffled by the bandages as a visitor accidentally sits on an injured limb, or the patient trying and failing to crane his neck forward to eat his dessert. Not to be confused with Bandaged Face or Bandage Babe.
