"Weekend at Bernie's"

UPDATE: Heh.
“Hell’s Kitchen has a rich history,” said Paul J. Browne, a police spokesman, “but this is one for the books.”

I suppose this is what happens when a person's entire frame of reference is shaped by bad comedy movies. You start to think that even truly lame-ass schemes will work.
