Premise

The Oatfields, a married couple, are mistaken for jewel thieves and forced to go to a party. The husband accidentally turns on the burglar alarm and the real criminals are apprehended.

Cast

gollark: My main problem with the "no modified clients" thing is that it seems like an attempt to lock people into the *default* clients, and whatever they decide to do to those.
gollark: If their system is only "secure" because you can't (aren't meant to) directly interact with it, it's *not secure*.
gollark: I'm not a fan of the "no modified clients" ToS thing, but I never found a particularly good reason to actually use one anyway.
gollark: So all we need to do is have PyroBot secretly log everyone's messages somewhere and then after a while use them for training, great!
gollark: Also, AI training needs powerful GPUs generally, I think, so it would cost a bit.
