Knock the mage unconscious. Drugs are a good way to do this. At this point,
six elementals will attempt to go free at once. At least one of them will
probably succeed.

The prospect of six elementals seeking vengeance on me while I am
unconscious prevents me from ever wanting to summon more than one at a time.
