(SPOILER ALERT) How could you extricate yourself from a gangster lair where you just shot everyone giving you trouble without being asked a million questions by the police?

Asked by Ltryptophan (12091points) March 2nd, 2010

LOST episode tonight, in sayid’s alternate life scene, he steals a gun and shoots the people holding him captive. This is a bad idea for anyone who isn’t very well trained in CQB, but if this happened and you left the police might eventually show up for evidence. If they found traces of you, then you would have some ‘splainin’ to do Loosay! So how could you skip the ‘splainin when you have the moral high ground anyway?

You may want to say LOST SPOILER ALERT
And I wouldn’t be held captive in the first place.
Jacob and smoke monster/Locke are on my side.

How do you get away with murder?

Is it murder if you are abducted by gangsters at gunpoint and you have an opportunity to save yourself by shooting your way out??? I don’t think so… But if you are Sayid, it might be a lot of crap you don’t want to deal with.

Me personally, I cower in fear of the guys with the guns who have me hostage in the first place. Getting shot being a hero, sucks.

Of course if you think you are going to die, then what do you have to lose?

I would take the writer’s out to drinks at the bar across the street from the studio and convince them to write me a way out.
You forgot to tell the part where Sayid stabs Locke/monster boy…

Damnit it, @davidbetterman I had something along those lines, but I was going to be a bigger smart ass than you.
