We've all been "hangry" before and know how important that Snickers bar can be.
Or in TikToker @dani_b_unfiltered's case, it was a potato that was baking in the oven.
Already hungry and tired at the end of a long day, the TikToker accidentally set off the child-lock on her oven, preventing her from opening it or using the rest of its features.
What happens in the video is an incredibly hilarious (and also totally justified) crash-out as the TikToker struggles against her oven, pulling on the door like her sheer force of will could do the trick, and calling on the help of Google and several AI features to give her directions on how to unlock the appliance.
From mocking her phone's directions to crying on the floor to wailing in frustration, this TikToker experienced a full range of emotions on behalf of this potato—and quite frankly, we're here for it.

Some fellow TikTokers were thoroughly amused.

Days later, TikToker @dani_b_unfiltered shared the update everyone had been waiting for, including the unfortunate fact that the child-lock had prevented her from even turning the oven off, and the way the stove was built into the rental kitchen, she was unable to reach the outlet behind it, either.
According to the update, the TikToker explained the situation to her roommate who had just returned, and within moments, her roommate solved the problem. While the TikToker had attempted to follow the directions using buttons on the back of the stove by the clock, the roommate instead used similar buttons at the front of the stove by the burner, and was able to quickly unlock the stove.

Though the hilarity is now behind us, TikTok was relieved that the issue had been sorted out.
Since cleaning the oven, including the "ashy" remains of the "cremated potato," it seems that the oven has otherwise been fine.
And we don't expect to see any more hacks for making scrambled eggs in an air fryer any time soon.
