Well there are like a dozen animal witnesses around so he could just ask. And they'll probably help him nab the bad guy too.

Alternatively, he takes a beaker of the water and tries to freeze it. If it freezes at a lower temperature than 0 C, it's an ocean. Unless they are at a high altitude, which may be the case if they are at a lake on a mountain.

On the Fast Rack


Knowing how most businesses set up their computers, I'd be surprised if they weren't all still using Windows XP and Internet Explorer. There'll be some weird thing they have to use that would utterly break if you tried anything else.

My company (small retailer under a big corporation) basically sent out a memo saying "We know Microsoft is cutting out XP, but upgrading all our systems would be a pain in the rear end for our IT department so instead we're going to buy a perpetual service contract from Microsoft so they will support XP just for us, forever."

I'd be willing to bet nearly all businesses with corporate components will have an identical service contract.

(Fun fact: Large portions of the memo were in Comic Sans)

I know Holbrook is a nerd but is the barcode actually valid and if so what does it mean?

I would be extremely surprised if you could get any sort of valid barcode from just 11 vertical lines.

Edit: Maybe a 2-digit number, barcodes are designed to be read forward and backward, with 'backward' characters having a different bar than forward (so a backward 5 is different than just mirroring 5)

E2 Plus a 'check' digit, where you add all the numbers together so the reader knows it has read right

So the number '123' would have bars for 1,2,3,b3,b2,b1,6. Most characters are multiple bars (like morse code) as well.

The crappiest part of being a detective is how often your house gets broken into and ransacked. It's like unpaid overtime and job costs on a monthly basis.

This is clearly a double-framejob, he moved all his art supplies to the left to throw Danger off, but made a blunder: If he's so left-handed, why is he opening the drawer with his right?

E: Deliberate, well-planned, single shot fired kills target. Definitely the work of someone who doesn't own a gun.
