This is a really great story, I'm glad to see there's at least a little bit of justice left in the world.

If they choose not to be cool about it, good luck with that

this is an awesome coincidence - it made me remember that video of them finding kim's bass in a pawn shop and asking back for it.

play it a little first and then give it back to him!!!

Maybe, but there´s a lot of evidence of them being cool people.
