Lamont makes as much trouble as he can, but he's still in the role of rich playboy and needs to continue appearing that way as he bucks under the weight of the thugs. Much of the struggle is very real, they're heavies, but he's refraining from using his array of skills learned years ago. Advanced martial arts and grappling techniques are not exactly the sort of thing expected from someone like him, but as his face is pinned to the pavement it takes more restraint not to use it as he gives a frustrated snarl.
One of the thugs orders to bring him, they can't afford bystanders that know who she is, and in a moment, he too finds a sickly-sweet cloth being placed over his mouth. Practice has taught him well how to hold his breath but play into their hands to make them believe he really is unconscious. A few moments and his motions slow until he appears too weak to struggle and he's shoved in next to Betty as the car takes off.
Unfortunately, Lamont's ruse has been so convincing, even Moe believes his boss is in real trouble and once he has the chance, he gets his cab started and tails the vehicle.
