How do you get the gorilla glue to come out of the container for a second use?
You need to read and follow the instructions on the package before the first use for keeping the dispensing nozzle clean so glue does not setup in it and plug it preventing dispensing more glue later.
However if you failed to do this and now have the dispensing nozzle all plugged up with hardened glue, there is a way that sometimes works to remove the plug of glue (but no guarantees). To do this you will have to unscrew the cap holding the dispensing nozzle from the bottle and push the plug out backwards. If you can do that rinse out any remaining glue residue and put the cap back on. Then make sure you read the instructions before you use anymore of the glue, so you won't be doing this another time!
I suppose you could try super glue ...
