say you woke up in a saw-esque type situation where conventional escape was impossible, and the only option was to comply with the rules of your captor. basicly, there's no way to avoid the two options he gives you.
1. you can get tortured to death, then he'll kill himself.
2. you can avoid your fate by giving him all the information he needs to aquire anyone else you choose, then he'll torture them to death in front of you, then release you and become docile. he'll allow you to choose his fate after that, kill him, turn him in, walk away, he won't resist.
edit: poll got eaten. you can still reply.
edit edit: just in case it wasn't clear: you have to be able to give him the information he needs to aquire this person, it can't be just some random person you don't know. it has to be someone you know enough about to be able to provide sufficient information, address, where they might be at a certain time, etc.
