With all due respect to mburke6225, I would strongly advise against using
superglue because chances are 95% that you're just going to create an even
bigger mess.

Try to pull it out with some very sharp tweezers used on electronics
assembly and repair lines.  Handy tool to have around.

If that doesn't work, someone will need to take it apart and push it out
from the inside.  Look at these guides to decide whether you want to tackle
it yourself:

These are for a 15 inch alumimun; hunt around on those sites if you have a
different model.
