Hmm, I'm reminded of Oldboy, all he needs to do is punch the walls for 15 years, then go on a mad rampage and

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

shag his daughter.

That'll do the trick.

Err, yeah, so looks like we're not going to get him out that easily at the moment, and do we actually want to? I mean, we don't really know what's going on here yet... I have a feeling TheDefect will be in contact soon...
