You should eat this piece of cake. You don't want it? I assure you it's very good and very safe to eat. Still don't want it? I guess I'm going to have to lock the door. Nobody is allowed to leave the room until you eat this piece of cake. Still don't want it? Everybody is getting pretty mad. I bet you probably want to leave. It's okay. I just need you to eat this piece of cake. Plenty of other people have eaten it. And they're fine. You absolutely don't have to eat it. But nobody is allowed to move or speak or gather together or make eye contact or especially leave until you eat this piece of cake. Still don't want it? I already ate a piece of cake myself before you got here. It was delicious I assure you. And also very safe despite what anybody tries to tell you. Only positive comments about the cake will be allowed. Still don't want it? I have a gun. I'm not threatening you in any way. It's just that everybody is scared and angry and tired. They all want to go home. I want to go home. You want to go home. And we can. But you have to eat the piece of cake before we do.

Why are you so hesitant? It's just a little piece of cake.
