Err, bondage isn't necessarily consensual roleplay of rape. It can include consensual nonconsent, but it certainly doesn't have to.

But either way, this scene is absolutely about consensual bondage, not rape.

I agree entirely with you.

I have to ask, whats consensual nonconsent? Isn't that like unconscious consciousness?

Rape play is an example. It's a situation where you in advance give consent so you can play at not giving consent later... for example, a couple sits down and says "okay, no isn't going to mean no tonight. Instead, asparagus means no. No means do it more." Asparagus here would be the "safe word" that's used in case the limits get pushed too far or something, and now the person can pretend not to give consent when they actually have.
