There was a collective sigh of relief on Wednesday when dozens of journalists were freed after five days being held held captive by armed guards loyal to Col. Muammar Qaddafi in a Libya hotel.

Staffers from the BBC, CNN, Fox News, Reuters and even a former U.S. congressman were unable to leave Tripoli's Rixos Hotel after fighting in the Libyan capital began to escalate late last week.

Fox News' Tadek Markowski, just released from the Rixos, talked with TheWrap about scrounging for food, the sudden appearance of Qaddafi's son Saif al-Islam and watching "Point Break" on a laptop while held captive by armed loyalists.
