The Stupid Detective in...
Lie Detector Test
DETECTIVE: You claim you didn't murder those six police officers. Now… would you be willing to take a lie detector test to prove your innocence?
SUSPECT: (Long pause.) Yes.
DETECTIVE: (Smiles.) Congratulations. That was the lie detector test… and you just passed.
SUSPECT: Really?
DETECTIVE: You bet! No guilty person would ever agree to take an actual lie detector test… that would just prove they're guilty. My lie detector test is much more effective.
SUSPECT: Yeah, so do you think I could get a ride home?
DETECTIVE: Well considering you're innocent, sure.
SUSPECT: Cool! Also, can I hold your gun?
DETECTIVE: I don't see why not. Here you go.
(The Detective hands the Suspect his gun.)
SUSPECT: Thanks. This is going to be a fun ride home.
DETECTIVE: A fun ride home with two innocent people in the car.
SUSPECT: Yeah… innocent.
