I missed my window to add an edit to the old lady with dementia and a Faberge egg, a co-worker was at her home once and due to her Alzheimer's she forgot he was there and dead-bolted him in the basement when she heard him down there. This was before the prevalence of cell phones so he could not contact anyone. She had called the fire dept about it so he did get out after a few hours. He wouldn't return there anymore, I took the calls at her place from then on but if I went into her basement I would remove the old fashioned barrel-bolt from the basement door first.
