I agree with the first answer, but also using a screwdriver to remove the vent first would make it much easier, especially if your hand/arm will not fit into the vent. If the pen is metal you could also try taping a small magnet to a coathanger. If its one of the cheap plastic "Bic" type pens.... why bother? It probably wouldn't hurt anything just staying there.

Remove the vent with a screwdriver and reach in and get the pen.

Try the hardware store. Try to find a Telescopic Magnet, it looks exactly like the antenna on a portable radio (pushes inside itself) but it has a magnet on the end. Used to pick up screws and whatnot that fall behind the work bench. Hope that helps.

You can take a screw driver and the pull the vent from the floor. try to not bend the vent.

If its metal you can put a heavy refrigerator magnet on a coathanger or a fork or something.
Get a new pen.

That vent should be able to open one way or another. Try pulling up on it or unscrew the screws.

I would just buy a new one if it's an air coditioning vent.
