Blade Runner: Black Lotus and Technical Grappling

[Varyon]

Really, that's just the kicking guy not being a good fighter - his buddy is already in his way when he starts the kick, and she's far enough away it wouldn't have hit her anyway (but that may just be bad fight choreography). As for what they were going for, I think it's possible with Technical Grappling to Parry an attack using the opponent you're grappling, so this could be a case of that, with her opting to burn up all her Control Points on the attempt and breaking the grapple. If it's not possible, well, honestly it should be, although this is going to be more difficult than a normal Parry (then again, if your hands are full of struggling criminal, it may be your best option).
