There are different types of 'cap' that are plastic and glued to the drainpipe. If this is under the kitchen sink, and is a 'p' trap, then the plastic nut either side of it will unscrew with a pair of channel lock pliers or a small pipe wrench. If, on the other hand this is a 'cleanout' cap on the end of a drainpipe, then there will be a 'nut' formed into the end of it. Turn this nut with a wrench to remove it. Have shallow bowl or small bucket ready to catch water from this.
