    Police then discovered Lutes' car, with a computer repair sticker on the door, was seen parked in front of the office on the night of the break-in.

    Reminds me of that fantastic Christopher Walken quote from True Romance.

    Cocotti: They snatched my narcotics, and high-tailed it outta there. They would've got away with it, but your son, f**khead that he is, left HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE in the dead guy's hand.

    I think the comments are good too. "yeah, he did the same thing at another company, we just didnt report him. he will be reported now." and the link to his meetup page, "am looking for a new way to improve my business"

    You couldn't make stuff up this good.

    Don't forget to modify the deflector dish.

    Hey does that mean that Geordi was actually working with the Borg? Seems like a bit of routine. The Borg attack. He modifies the deflector dish to do something clever. The Borg leave. I bet he deliberately caused all those problems with the holodeck too.
