Officer Mirkin: Mr. O'Donnell, is this
your car?
Doug: No, it's my father's car.
JD: I see. Did you realize the inspection has expired?
Doug: (sigh of relief) No, I didn't realize
that.
The female officer approaches the car. She stands directly outside the passenger door. JD notices part of a tattoo under her sleeve as well. Her name tag says "Fenstermaker."
Officer Mirkin: Mr. O'Donnell, this isn't
a moving violation. You won't get points for this. But you or your father will
need to have the car inspected as soon as possible, and there is a fine.
Doug: OK, no problem.
Officer Mirkin: I need you to sign here,
signifying receipt of the ticket.
Doug: Sure.
Officer Mirkin: (hands Doug his copy of
the violation) That will give you three days to get the car inspected. Show
that to any police officer who might pull you over in the next 72 hours for this
same offense. Make sure you schedule an inspection by then.
Doug: OK.
Officer Mirkin:
(leaning into the window) Have a nice day.
Doug:
You too.
Officer Mirkin notices the Sorcery for Dummies book that has slid partially out of the Occult Emporium bag in the back seat of Doug's car. He and his partner return to their cruiser.
Officer Mirkin: (on the way) Did
you get a load of that book in the back seat?
Officer Fenstermaker: Yeah, I can't believe
the trash these kids are reading nowadays.
Doug and JD breathe a sigh of relief. The police car drives away.
JD: That was close! Really, really close.
Doug: You had your chance. Why didn't you
grab him?
