When you get gagged with a cloth why can’t you just spit it out?

156 views

So basically, in movies I’ve seen, every time someone gets gagged with a cloth, they just keep it there and it has me wondering, why can’t they just spit it out? Or push it out with their tongue? Is it really that hard?
I understand when you get gagged with an apple or something it’s actually hard because your teeth dig into the apple, but why is it so hard with a cloth?

In my experience, cloth fills the mouth and unravels, making it hard to spit out. Not impossible, but difficult. But It could be a shock thing as well, fear, etc.
