"To be fair, the lawyer did 'fess and apologise"

Yes, but if you look really close he's got his fingers crossed behind his back.

Re: All quit so we don't have to pay you

"I'd be more concerned about the resulting paperwork if you did though."

They'd be in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard'.

Re: So let me get this straight ...

"Aliens come who knows how many light years, at an unimaginable cost of energy. On arrival, the only Government that notices is the US.gov, and said aliens don't make themselves known to any others. Somehow, everybody concerned has managed to keep quiet about it since the 1940s. Today, the only people who seem to believe it are known wackjobs in Congress... and even Donald "loosest lips of the Century" Trump hasn't babbled about the news in the eightish years since he became Idiot In Chief..."

Teasers are usually rich kids with nothing to do. They cruise around looking for planets that haven't made interstellar contact yet and buzz them, meaning that they find some isolated spot with very few people around, then land right by some poor unsuspecting soul whom no one's going to believe and then strut up and down in front of him wearing silly antennas on their head and making beep beep noises.

All rather silly, really
