Off the top of my head.

- Unplug/turn off monitor.

- Turn screen brightness down to 0

- Cover screen with something to block the light.

- Toss brick at screen. That should do it, but perhaps you should throw two bricks just to be sure.

Bend your laptop and tell him to not sleep!!! (in power options).
Or bend the knee to triple C.
