A take matters into your own hands approach works, but is very tedious:
Understand "give [thing]" as giving it to.
To decide what action name is the prospective-action: (- action_to_be -)
For issuing the response text of the action processing internal rule response (H) when the prospective-action is giving it to action:
say "[There]'s no one here to give anything to.[no line break]";
Definition: a person is handy if it is not the person asked and the person asked can touch it.
for supplying a missing second noun when an actor giving something to:
if there is a handy person (called the recipient) begin;
now the second noun is the recipient;
say "(to [the recipient])";
end if;
(Example shows the missing second noun case, but the same technique could be extended to the noun.)
