To elaborate on something Bampop overlooked: you cannot even ask for help if you're winning the combat, much less Run Away.

Which led to one of the munchkinliest plays I've ever seen: a player who was barely beating a monster played a one-shot to help the monster, played Help Me Out Here to steal the Kneepads of Allure from another player, and then forced that same player to help him kill the now grossly overmatched monster. Needless to say, he paid for that effrontery later.
