later on that day when larry gets there he explains that no waiter spilled wine on anyone and that he hadnt autherized this guy to get dry cleaning done.....so they call the dry cleaner to try to track this guy down and it turns out that someone had stolen a couple of books of blank tickets and had done this to DOZENS of restaurants that week
