Rags to Riches "Wilderness Blues"

[mudmaiden]

For a long time now I have searched for QS scenes on the web using Crypto's list on the Quicksand Movie site. I have been looking for the episode Wilderness Blues from a TV show called Rags To Riches starring Joseph Bologna and Tisha Campbell. According to Crypto, the girl - Tisha - falls into quicksand and the father - Joseph - rescues her with the aid of family members. The scene has been missing for quite some time until fairly recently on YouTube. It shows no quicksand at all. The girl trips on her foot, rolls down a hill into a ditch with a rattlesnake near by. The father not wanting to come down there as to not disturb the snake has his kids form a human chain to get to her. This could have been just the thing to do when rescuing someone from quicksand. All the elements for drama was there; the girl crying for help, the group forming a chain without falling in themselves and the final reach to save the girl's life. Too bad for a missed opportunity but apparently some aspects of Crypto's list needs revision. Don't get me wrong, the list is a valuable and exhaustive collection for quicksand scenes for ages. Its just that I've been searching for that scene for a long time with anticipation.
