Your problem is that a living house of cards has come to life, and it has a tornado fetish.
Ah, of course. You've got a roach-infested house of cards demanding to see a tornado, and it's so flimsily constructed that even your specially-engineered explosives will tear it apart and probably crush all the roaches inside. Which is a big problem, because your reputation for resolving these situations non-lethally is the core of your business strategy.
The only option you're left with is somehow using your explosives to produce a tornado so the negotiators can get somewhere. Unfortunately, you're all out of tornado-generating explosives. You'd have to either get more, or somehow bring an existing tornado here.
It's not looking good. Frankly, you're almost desperate enough to detonate your limbo-teleportation explosive just so you don't have to deal with this mess any more.
You are now the obvious solution staring this guy in the face, namely using the limbo-teleportation explosive to retrieve the tornado from limbo that he doesn't know about. Okay, so maybe you're not that obvious from his point of view, but you're really obvious to any omniscient observer who's been paying attention.
Regardless of who you may or may not be obvious to, the fact remains that you don't want to be the solution to this guy's problem. This is either because you have a secret nefarious agenda or because you're just a jerk. You haven't decided which yet.
So how are you going to stop this guy with the nonlethal explosives from using you as a solution?
