No. Either snake the toilet and get it back, force it down or take the toilet up and get it that way.

Why does an egg sink into a glass bottle but not a plastic bottle?
It floats because the water is heaver then the bottle. The bottle is light so it floats. No,It floats because the particles are free to move inside but with water in it there is not enough space for the particles to move so it floats.
Why does plastic water bottles melt when you put hot water in it?
Plastic water bottles can melt when hot water is placed in them due to the low melting point of the plastic material used to make the bottles, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). When the hot water comes into contact with the plastic, it can cause the polymer chains in the plastic to break, leading to melting or deformation of the bottle. It is important to use bottles specifically designed to withstand hot liquids to avoid this issue.
Why do the sides of a plastic bottle buckle?
Air pressure can buckle the sides of a plastic bottle. If a bottle is capped, it isolates the air inside. At the time the cap went on, inside and outside air pressure were equal. Cool the bottle and the sides will buckle in because the inside air cools, becomes less dense and then its pressure goes down. Cap an empty soda bottle and stick it in the fridge for fifteen or twenty minutes. Look at what happens. Want more drama? Same empty soda bottle. Run a couple of cups of hot water out of the tap in it. Cap it and shake it for ten seconds or so. Uncap it and dump out the water and replace the cap right away. What is in hand is a bottle of pretty warm air that is isolated inside the bottle. Put that in the fridge for ten minutes. Major buckling.
What happens when you put a filled plastic water bottle in an open fire?
In the first place the water in the bottle would keep the temperature of the plastic down preventing it from burning and leaking, The same as you would do by boiling water over a flame in a paper cup, However the water in the bottle would heat up and eventually the pressure inside the bottle would burst it like a balloon.
If you heat a plastic bottle full of liquid why will it crack?
Plastic bottles are 'blow molded'. Basically air is forced inside a small piece of hot plastic and it expands like a balloon, except that this 'balloon' is inside a form or mold in the shape of the bottle. It is cooled and the bottle shape stays. If the softening point of the bottle is lower than the hot liquid poured in, then the plastic 'balloon' wants to shrink again.

It depends on with what you fill the bottle. If the bottle is filled with water, then 0 calories are inside the bottle. As for the bottle itself, I have to recommend not consuming the plastic and getting your calories elsewhere.
