Tesla Trap

To care more about people recognizing you than the invention.
"Don't they see! I've invented wireless energy!"

"But it can't be metered; that means nobody can make money."

"But It's beyond ACDC! Why won't anyone .."

Dude, he went insane, fell into the Tesla Trap.

mouse-trap

Technique used by school leadership officials. It involves the persecutor ignoring the misbehaving fugitive (runt), whilst following at a distance. The runt will suddenly feel like they are being chased and will unknowingly run into a dead-end. At the last moment the persecutor will execute various manoeuvres to "capture" the runt, such as:
- Sudden acceleration
- Sidestepping
- Various lures
- Increase in pace
- Extending arms (to block)

This technique of luring the runt into a false sense of security can be quite effective when implemented correctly.
I'm approaching the runt, can we implement a mouse-trap at the C-block stairwell?
