Try to untie the rope around your wrists

Hiding in the alleyway, you do your best to work at the knot on the rope binding your wrists, but you can't make any headway at all.

A man in a suit starts to walk through the alley, and you beg him for help. He comes over and has a go at untying your bonds, but again, can't loosen them at all.

"These are seriously tight knots, it'll take forever to get these off. You're better off finding someone with a blade who can just cut it."
