How do you get the gear shift on 1998 olds intrigue to move or unlock when it is locked in park?
Remove the shifter handle.
At the front of the shifter there is a small horizontal slit. If you slide a flat head screw driver into the the button and pry upwards a two pronged holder will slide out. Hard to get to when it's in park. Might need to use needle nose pliers. Once the holder is out, pull up on the shifter, wiggling and twisting it until it comes off. There will remain a silver tube that is split at the top and a yellow plastic post that slides in and out of the tube. It's very easy to push down the plastic post with your thumb and shift the car. Car has to be on, brake has to be in.
This is a bad situation though. In an accident you or a passenger might be thrown onto the shifter post, complicating an otherwise survivable accident. (That's why there's such a big, padded handle on the top so people don't spear themselves on the shifter when the car rolls over.) I don't recommend driving around without a shift handle. Go straight to a junk yard or dealer and replace it.
If the button is stuck in then after removing the handle you can jam a screw driver into the bottom of the shifter and free it. If the spring inside is still working you can then replace the handle before driving.
If the shifter button broken I've posted an answer to "How to you remove the shift button on a 1999 Olds Intrigue?" that details how to repair one.
What else can I help you with?

Where is fuel cap release on 1998 Mercedes 190E?
There is no such thing as a 1998 190E, BTW - It was replaced by the C-class in 1993... On my Mercedes (1984) there is no cap lock, when you lock or unlock the doors, the gas latch (door) is locked or unlocked automatically.

Check the stop lights - shift interlock is usually the same circuit - check fuse Move the ignition switch to 1st position (unlock) with engine off - then shift to neutral to start vehicle and then you will be able to shift to "D or R"
