There should be a small leak that keeps dripping but not at equal intervals so it drives him crazy and his meals should be brought irregularly so he can't predict it...he could be on the verge of death and voila, food for like four more days....then starve home for like nine days and bring home food for two days and starve him for six days...like that. He would have no control over anything. Occasionally, but without reason and unpredictably, some people would come in to torture him.
We can make things more interesting and bring food every two day for week and then when he expects food in the next meeting...surprise, torture. Oh and sometimes we give him dresses to wear because why not🙃
