To be clear. The scenery of this encounter already suggests that you are walking in on it with the opportunity to "surprise" if you respond quickly and decisively. It does not require the meta-knowledge. What I offered was a way to increase the likelihood that the encounter ended with the desired result. What may really cook your goose is that not only is the result the op desired specifically not required, but that the encounter may never even occur within a campaign.
