- I DRINK YOUR MERLOT!
- Seems like too much work when you could just lay down one of those ACME black holes.
I have my suspicions for who the suspect might be…

Amazing how driving people in poverty increases property crime...
Sadly there is no way to tell these things so we have to fuck around to find... For the 69th time...
Curious how rare some of the bottles are. I've read that the fine wine community is pretty knowledgeable and tight knit, so I wonder if trying to sell an ultra rare bottle would raise any red flags.
- Hyper wealthy are also incredibly amoral and willing to purchase/trade in stolen goods. Just look at the art world - where do you think stolen paintings end up?
  Wine is even easier - they can drink and dispose of it without anybody being the wiser.
Put out an APB for Ethan Hunt!
