I just realized the true genius of Dan's plan. At first, it would seem like the imposter could just have his and Dan's DNA tested to prove he's not actually Dan, and he'd be off the hook. But by doing so, he'd be inadvertently admitting to identity theft, so he'd end up in the big house regardless. Well played by Da- oh, right. Biff. Well played, Biff.

I'll be honest, even though i love watching Dan's usual violent revenge methods i actually enjoyed seeing him use a non-violent approach in his plan to get rid of the imposter, getting him arrested was pretty clever on Dan's part but he should've known that the imposter wouldn't be in prison forever but given how long the imposter was in jail that would've given Dan enough time to fully protect his identity.

What you're supposed to do, is commit a bunch of crimes while disguised as them, and then point the finger at _them_ when the cops come around.
