Throw Up and Straight Shot

In a pair of videos, Throw Up and Straight Shot, the Disorientals are subject to an off-screen junk attack. While measuring up against a graceful posture borrowed from the standards of Western Art History, they attempt to maintain their composure but ultimately fail to stand upright, succumbing to the barrage of junk.
