The lady is Mrs. Hilyard, a wealthy poetess who lives in a three-story city mansion and her cage is her elevator, which stops a dozen feet short of the main floor due to an electrical failure on a July 4th weekend. She rings her outside alarm, eventually noticed by a drunken derelict, who breaks into the house, ignores her plight and helps himself to various items and alcohol. He leaves with his loot but returns a while later with a plump prostitute and three teenage hoodlums, who proceed to terrorize Mrs. Hilyard as they wreck her home.一般情况下的命令自然是要遵守的，但当诱惑超出了某人的抗拒极限的时候，命令不命令的也没更大意义了。好比如说一个用刀的看到了一把宝剑，虽然也有占有之心，但在这道命令下他也就放弃了。
