Client:"Oh goodness no, I just want you to mess with him. Bean him with a soda can while he's on his jog and really mess up his day off. Maybe take out his girlfriend too." ICA:"...." Client:"...." ICA: "That'll be 150,000 US dollars" Client: "Deal"

Fun fact I learnt while studying fingerprint analysis: Fingerprints are only partially genetic; the overall ridge pattern (arch, loop, whorl, etc.) and ridge count are genetic, but the minutiae (the tiny details of the ridges) are not, and it's the minutiae that are used to identify a fingerprint. So even identical twins have different fingerprints.
