"Tow your Spacecraft Properly"

I was watching some commercial prepared by the government about towing your spacecraft properly. It showed examples of what might happen to two spacecraft if they were towed improperly at the end.

Next, Two police pulled up behind a stopped vehicle with a spacecraft being towed, and arrested the man for towing it improperly. He stepped out of the car with his hands up, and a gun fell to the floor noisily from somewhere. He muttered something about not having a good grip when he used guns.

He was arrested, handcuffs placed on him, and he was secured in the auto-seatbeling seat in the polices' van. Angrily, the driving policeman proclaimed, after driving around for a while, that he was going to take him straight to the judge, and drove right next to a door leading into a large official looking building.

They entered a chapel, and told a group of people standing around a table there why they were there. One of these people told them to go through the glass doors behind him and wait with a nurse who's name he mentioned. They did so.

One of the police officers, now a female, picked a cell-phone up from a bag where it had been ringing and turned it on. The person on the other end asked for the nurse, and, not seeing her, was given a response about her not being available. Then the nurse stood up and said something like "Excuse me? I'm here.". They laughed.

They went down into a sunken area, the police and the criminal. Both police were male now. There was some fiasco about one of the police unleashing a stock market scam on the computers which was there.

Then, two people came in, looking like mexicans. They grabbed some stuff, including a U.S. flag which was there. One of the police asked to see it, and then tried to rip it. As he couldn't, he proclaimed that a police person must be redistributing flags.

It got rather muddled from there on out.
