Kerobian's answer is enough close. In "my" version (it's not my story, but you prolly know what I mean) the prisoner takes another of the notes and eats it. The rest goes as he said.

Kerobian, for guessing this you get a paperclip and a little used tissue! Congrazulasionsh!

Your turn!

Sorry I have been so long in getting on the ball here.

Anyhoo, here's one for ye guys.

Alan was extremely jealous of Brenda's new computer. It ran really really fast and had all the best stuff on it. Finally, jealousy turned to eny, which turned to plotting. Finally, one dark and stormy night *Dramatic Music coupled with a scream* Alan grabbed a hammed and started banging away at Brenda's computer *Dramabutton*. He banged and hammered, and when he was finally through, he was satisfied.

The next morning, Brenda found Alan working and playing on her old computer while she had a new one. How is that possible?

Wow, either this is a tough one or I really can't see the facepalmer on this..

Could it be that the computer was a lie, like the cake?

He made it ugly so she wouldn't want it? Or just adjusted it to fit his personal specifications?
