Officer: That's Officer O'Ryan. Sir, these are your flyers for your business?
Rathbone: Well, yeah yeah, so?
Officer: So, this also belongs to you.
Rathbone: This? A ticket?
Officer: Sherry ShaMr.ocks. Rodney's been distributing these flyers all over town without approval from city hall. Well, that constitutes littering, and we have a little ordinance against that, carries a $200 fine.
Rathbone: $200?
