On my very first character, I played without any knowledge so I ended up getting captured by Astrid without any weapons (I roleplayed too much back then and had my character change into casual clothes before going to bed while storing all weapons and armor in a chest). I had no chance of killing Astrid since I was no mage, so I had to kill one of the captives and got stuck with the "With Friends Like These..." quest for the longest time (I didn't actually want to join DB). I was ignoring it, but then I snapped (40 or so levels later) and did the following:


 * used movetio player to teleport Astrid to me;
 * removed her essential status;
 * killed her (felt a bit bad since she greeted me as "sister");
 * got "Destroy the Dark Brotherhood!", did it.

I also used the completequest/resetquest commands, but I'm not sure whether it played any role in that case.
