I remember seeing, at the end of an episode of the TV series VIP with Pamela Anderson, two or three pretty girls having a bucket of syrup poured over their heads. I think this episode took place on a college campus.
Is it possible to find this scene online?

It's from S4 E1 ("21 Val Street"):

Is there a timeline for the mess?

41 minutes in - but surely you don't want to miss the full action-packed episode?

Thank you, but I have already lost the will to live

Bondage fans should also check out 24:03 and 28:55, the latter of which features a humiliating forced makeup job.
