The answer to the original riddle is “Sure, can I have your phone to make a demonstration. Great. I’ll sell the phone and pen back as a package deal for $100.”

I always thought a good one was to put the pen in your pocket and refuse to give it back. Make him name his price. Clearly it’s yours, not his. Otherwise how could you sell it to him?

To a person like that a mere pen is basically worthless as a hostage.

Thats exactly the kind of unethical salesmanship he used to hire for.

That’s why my proposed solution is to take the phone though. Much more valuable hostage.
