Chucked Up, Way to Die #534, is the third death featured in "Putting a Happy Face on Death", which aired on December 30, 2009.
Plot[]
Cynthia (Alexandra Stocks) is acting out a bondage fantasy with her husband Kenny through a live webcam when a burglar breaks into the house and begins stealing things. Cynthia's mouth is duct-taped and she is handcuffed to her chair, so she cannot escape, stop the burglar, or scream for help. After taking her laptop, he leans over her face to thank her for making his job easy before running off with her things before he leaves. While Cynthia smells the thief's extremely bad breath, she vomits, but the duct tape prevents it from exiting her mouth. Instead, it goes down her windpipe into her lungs and she dies from drowning, sending her to heaven.

Cynthia: Hi, honey. How's work?
(Cynthia laughs)
Narrator: Cynthia and Kenny have a very modern relationship.
Cynthia: You're horny.
Narrator: While Kenny's at work, they stay connected through online video chat. To keep things fresh, Cynthia makes up naughty role-playing scenarios. Today, she has something very kinky in mind.
(Cynthia holds up two handcuffs)
Dr. Lori Buckley: Sex is very important to a healthy relationship, and for some people, it can get a little bit boring or routine, so a sex game can be a great way to kind of spark things up and make it fun again.
(Cynthia duct tapes her mouth shut)
Narrator: Cynthia gags herself...
(Cynthia handcuffs herself to the arms of her chair)
Narrator: ...ties herself up in a chair, and handcuffs herself in.
(Cynthia starts screaming to make Kenny laugh)
Narrator: At work, Kenny takes it all in, getting horny as a three-balled cat, but before he can ditch work early...
(A burglar enters Cynthia's house, Cynthia screams in horror)
Narrator: An unexpected visitor lets himself in.
(Cynthia screams again)
Burglar: What do we have here?
Narrator: Kenny watches in horror as the masked burglar robs them blind.
(The burglar approaches Cynthia's laptop)
Burglar: Oh, that's nice.
Narrator: The last thing to go: Cynthia's laptop.
(The burglar takes Cynthia's laptop and prepares to leave)
Narrator: Before he leaves, he leaves Cynthia gasping for air.
Burglar: You made my job a whole lot easier.
Narrator: Mr. Burglar happens to have a case of halitosis that could peel paint. His breath smells like something that comes out of the wrong end of a large farm animal.
Burglar: Thanks... honey.
Jill Place: The smell can totally cause a physical reaction, cause you to vomit, or cause you to be sick to your stomach.
(The burglar leaves with Cynthia's computer)
(Cynthia starts vomiting)
Narrator: It was as if Cynthia had stuck her head down the poop chute of a full porta-potty. She blew chunks, but the chunks had nowhere to go.
(Cynthia starts choking)
Dr. Dale Prokupek: When you vomit, your body is detecting something that it doesn't want to be there. A signal gets sent from your brain to your stomach via your vagus nerve and it says "Please empty out the contents of my stomach."
(Cynthia keeps choking)
Dr. Dale Prokupek: Food or bile or stomach acid should never go into the lungs because it will impede our body's ability to take in oxygen, and so we essentially drown in our own vomit or our own secretions.
(Cynthia dies from choking on her own vomit)
Narrator: For Cynthia, a day that started with kinky fun just became too hard to swallow.

Trivia[]
- This is the only death in which the bad guy gets away unscathed. This is ironic, considering the first death from the same episode this was featured in, "Rub-A-Dubbed Out", featured a thief getting brutally killed (though that death was set four years before this one).
- This death is similar to Vom-Ate-Dead where the victim suffocates from vomiting.
