How can you handle this kidnapping scenario?
This is the scenario:
Somehow you’ve been kidnapped by someone you don’t know and ended up unconscious and tight up(except your mouth) in a strange room. It’s a small room with no window but only a chair and a table. He/she(the kidnapper) will go and says “Please stay here,don’t scream,I won’t hurt you” then he/she leave the room and lock the door. They took all your belongings but luckily,they forgot about that empty wine bottle on that table just right behind your chair. He/she’ll back in about 15 minutes. The clock keeps ticking,what will you choose to do in this situation?
A – Try to reach that wine bottle,break it,and use it to cut your tights
B – Trust that kidnapper and when he/she’s returned you’ll try to offer some compensation and beg him/her to release you
C – Struggle and scream as loud as you can and hope someone will hear your voice and save you
D – Others(your own idea).
Risks:
A – You will slice and injure your hand in progress,and it’s impossible to break that door
B – He/she might reject your wish,and who know what will happen next
C – You don’t what kind of people behind that locked door.
(Please be honest).

I’d change channels to a show with a better script writer.
I’d never cut my tights. Good hosiery is not cheap.
I go with A.
Situation ends with a dead kidnapper, with a cut throat.
You sure are bored huh?
Since this is completely rhetorical, D…..I have a razor hidden in my mouth and cut myself out, there’s an Hatori Hanzo Katana on a shelf on the wall that I use to cut the kidnapper down and I take all of his money and get out of there. The end.
I would try A and C at the same time.
Cut my binds,wait for him to show up then beat the $hit out of him with his own arm ;)
I find it a bit odd that the kidnapper is giving instructions to an unconscious person??? What if I am still out cold after the 15 minutes and they come back? Will they keep talking to me??
Anytime I get tight up, I like to sing a little song and have another little drinkey:
“Ooooooh! 17 bottles of beer on the wall…” Yep, I drank from 99 all the way down to 17 before I started singing. It’s so bad that the kidnappers untie me, ask me to leave, and give me cab fare.
@ChazMaz -Ok! I’ll use both his arms! lol!
B,if he’s handsome and since he asks me that nice.
I’d probably fashion a bazooka from pipes pulled out of the wall by cutting through the drywall with the broken wine bottle and then SHOOT HIM IN THE !@#$ING FACE.
B. I’ll offer to sleep with him and make love then run away while he’s sleeping.
A.
I’m willing to hear him out on his supposedly benign intentions, because he sounds like a reasonable person if he bothers to be this polite to a tied up prisoner. But he’ll have to explain himself to someone who can at least move around. Because I don’t think anything I would actually consent to would still require me to be tied up.
We can negotiate where we go from there.
Hide the bottle if I can so that I can try (A) in the future. Yes, I might regret not trying it now, but I don’t know enough about the situation yet. There are other parameters, eg am I rich? Is the kidnapper keeping me for ransom? If so, I’m not really in danger. Does the person look dangerous? Does he/she look like a professional kidnapper or like some sort of psycho? Does the door look sturdy? Can I hear anything on the other side? etc
So generally I’d try and find out as much as possible about the situation I’m in before making my move. But I’d try and hide that bottle if possible (maybe break it and hide a shard in my sock or something, but not untie myself yet).
Little did the kidnapper know that I had consumed mass quantities of homemade bean soup prior to being abducted. As I awake and hear the kidnappers instructions I realized I had only one shot at escaping. “I’ll be happy to co-operate” I say to the naughty napper “If you’d just make me a little more comfortable by pulling my finger….”.
I guess I’d try knocking the bottle over and using a shard to cut myself free, but even then they’d probbaly hear the bottle break and come back to see what went on, and I wouldn’t have enough time to do it.
My natural inclination when I’m bored and unable to go do something else is to sing loudly and (quite possibly) horribly. I would wait five minutes, start up the caterwauling, and go for A; I am reasonably confident in my ability to not cut myself on the glass. (I might also look for something else that might do the cutting).
Is this quality glass, or the cheap crap that they make cups from?
Then, I’d make for the door. It may be locked and unbreakable, but the wall that it’s attached to is gonna be pretty flimsy.
Alternatively, I’d get the chair and use it to ambush whoever came in to tell me to stop murdering Dean Martin.
I go with “A”.
Since when is it acceptable to honor any promise a psychopath makes? You can’t even tell what will and won’t set him off. I will get cut, but the odds of bleeding to the point of blacking out are slim since I the cut is located distally from vital organs. If the bleeding is too profuse I can apply direct pressure even though I am tied up. A chair part, the restraints, or a part of my body can staunch or slow the bleeding.
The basic premise (for me) is this: I can escape, or die trying. I’d rather not die just because I didn’t try. I don’t want my last thought to be one of regret. And I do not want my life in the hands of a psychopath. That never ends well.
depends on if she is hot….. i could handle a little hostage time with a hot kidnapper…....if its a dude, hes getting sliced up with a broken wine bottle.
@buck19delta At one time, Lorena Bobbit was hot enough to attract a husband. Are you sure you wouldn’t like to augment your answer a bit?
E-
I PUT ON MY ROBE AND WIZARD HAT
TAKE OUT MY MAGIC STAFF
AND CAST “DESTROY BONDS”
Why in the world would he tell me the exact time he’ll be back? That’s strange.
D. Maybe I’m the killer and he tied me up because I’m crazy. o.O
Or forget that. I would escape like a really bad movie: A and C, and not in that order.
C. Scream and cry like a pansy.
A. When he leaves , use to chair to block the door while I untie myself.
B. Get him with the glass when he comes back, with little to no struggle on his part, and escape with nothing but a small scratch above my brow.
:D
