Answer:
This story has a resemblance to the play ‘If I Were You’. A criminal held Gerrard as a hostage. However, Gerrard trapped the criminal with confidence and treated him like a guest. He convinced the criminal to run away from that place as the police was behind him. He showed the criminal the exit door for escaping which was actually a cupboard door. The criminal blindly followed Gerrard’s instructions and tried exiting through the door, but was eventually trapped in the cupboard.
