I saw a keychain once that said, "I don't suffer from an addiction to David Caruso, I enjoy it!" I love the character Horatio Caine on CSI Miami. I count the days 'til each new episode. I love that show. Even when they stretch the bounds of reality, I still love them. One show recently showed Horatio walking into a bank and asking to withdraw a million dollars. He showed his badge and the teller somehow read his mind and put a tracking device in with the money. First, no banking center I know of would even have half that amount on hand without a few days notice. I once handled a half million dollar withdraw. It involved a three day notice for us to even get that much. The HPD worked as the security for the transaction. And we didn't have a huge canvas duffel bag available either. Funny how they just happened to have one! Second, How in the world would a teller read his mind about a tracking device just because he flashed a badge? I waited on many police officers who had simple transactions. Seeing a badge didn't turn me into a psychic, though many people assumed that if they handed me a check that I knew automatically whether they wanted to cash or deposit it. Maybe everyone lives in that fictional world where tellers just know why you came to see them... I still love them though.
