You might be right. I seem to recall an incident where you need to get hold of a key that was on a table, but the man who owned it would not let you.

The answer to this was, of course, to get hold of a love potion. Then walk down to the beach, grab hold of an octupus. Give it the love potion. Put the love-sick creature in your inventory. After this you would have to find some way to get a laxative. When you have all this you head back to the man with the key, put the octopus in the poor fellow's toilet, then put the laxative in his drink. Wait for it to set in effect, then as the guy is occupied with the octopus in the restroom.... You nick the key.
