why was he arrested??


like seriously what was the charge??

reply

disorderly conduct.

A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous. Got me?

reply

I thought Elliott was arrested for bring crazy,

reply

The policeman said disorderly conduct, although its obviously unrealistic that a someone can be arrested for his conduct. It's a comedy without reasonableness.

How is it unrealistic that someone can be arrested for his conduct??

People need to stay calm & act quietly in public, not create a ruckus.

Elliott kept babbling loudly about being in contract with the devil, and refused to leave the church....so he was arrested.



I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

Actually that isnt what happened (at least thats not what we were shown) He wasnt at all loud and he didnt refuse to leave the church.

reply

He only got loud and "disorderly" AFTER the arrest

reply

I saw him begin to get agitated in the church, and the priest getting upset & trying to calm him...then it cuts away to Elliott being arrested.

So we're supposed to deduce that he kept babbling (likely more & more panicked to be believed!) and the priest called the police.
