He tells Alicia about this, and she suggests that he try out the blanket again, just to see what happens—after all, it's not like he can get any more invisible than he already is. Bobby falls asleep with the blanket plugged in, but is woken up by loud banging. The police have come in with a search warrant to look for Bobby in his house. When they enter his room, everyone is startled to find that Bobby is there—and naked. Bobby's mom tells the police that he just got back from Florida and that she wants them to leave right…

I asked her repeatedly what she meant by…
