Here is a link to a photo of my sister's laptop.

???looks like a power supply.

She said the laptop
fell on the cord. I think what happened was that when the laptop fell
on the power supply a plastic ring on the end of the plug came off
inside the laptop port.

Hard to visualize what you mean.

Any creative way to get remove it?

Straight pin.
Bend a tiny right angle on the pointy end.
Poke it between the metal rod and the plastic thingie,
rotate, pull.
If it won't fit, heat it first.
