Press the button!

So, your're all locked up. Big time. We are talking super villain stuff here, thick steele and wires. All controlled by this big red button that is of course planted out of your reach. But you are not alone in the room, another being is there, but for some reason it does not speak any form of human language. In fact, you are pretty sure it is also deaf and blind. After screaming your throat raw and trying as best as you can by making minimal gestures from your restrained position for several months, the beeing has started to move towards the all important button. If it can just reach it, you will be free and you can help the beeing to a better place as well. On its agonizingly slow progress towards the button, it of course stumbles upon its own feet and it takes more than a month, just for it to get up on its feet again. But now, finally! You see it reaching towards the button with its hand!! Only to fall asleep... Hand hovering over the button and your release to freedome. To tip it off it also starts to alarmingly tilt towards that great bottomless hole in the ground that you hadn't noticed right next to it.

You know those good days you have once in a while? This is not one of them.
