Ruby lets you do most things if you want to - calling private methods,
changing constants, redefining methods on core classes - with great
power comes great responsibility!

What about this:

class Dog
  def initialize(password)
    @secret = password
  end
end

d = Dog.new("flower52")
puts d.instance_eval("@secret")

--output:--
flower52
