    You know how, every time someone brings up the fact that Jason doesn't like chocolate, the episode cuts to a series of nested flashbacks consisting of Jason talking about how he doesn't like chocolate? You should start doing that every time someone brings up the fact that Brian doesn't like fruit or sweet things.

    I’m a P.I., and I’m very good at my job. Sometimes, as long I’m confident that I’m far enough away from my subject and it won’t get back to them, I’ll allow a nosey neighbor to know that I’m a P.I. just for the mind fuck effect. A lot of the time, you don’t need to have eyes on your subject’s residence and you’re just waiting for their vehicle to pass, so it really doesn’t matter. I still won’t tell who I’m watching though. Nosey neighbors who think they are entitled to know why someone is parked on a public street crack me up!

    I would argue that your two choices of excuses for your stakeout are flawed. Birdwatchers usually are very respectful of property to my knowledge, and they usually have guides and a lot more equipment than binoculars. As for losing your dog, you would be expected to be calling out for the dog as you walked around, which would draw attention to yourself. Under the assumption the person you are investigating is doing something other than cheating on a spouse, they would likely tell you to go away as soon as they had talked to you.

  • @rachellee2680

    @rachellee2680

    Valid points, but I think you could argue that a novice would walk around with a suspicious lack of equipment, especially if the person looks young and inexperienced. I used to birdwatch for fun a few years back and I'd rarely have much more than a small knapsack with water and snacks, maybe a birding guide, and binoculars. An honest-sounding apology on the spot could even excuse the lack of respect for property boundaries. (But this would definitely only fly as a one-time excuse.) As for the lost dog, you could specify that the dog is deaf, which would negate the need to be calling out for it. I do agree, though. Some of the excuses in the video could have had a bit more thought put into them but I'd chalk it up to keeping the episode concise.

    Pre-Surveillance: Make sure you have all your tools. (camera, microphone, etc.) You want to blend in so dress accordingly as well as have a car and color that is easy to blend in and comfortable because your going to be sitting in it for hours. Know where the closest public bathrooms are so if/when needed you can use them quicky and get back to watching. Research. Get what is called a pattern of life. Where do they live? Where to they work? Where to they go to school? Favorite food places and hang out places? Hobbies? (You can normally find this kind of stuff on social media.) Also another good place to look for info is the public records websites. There's many out there, some are even free. Know entrances and exits. Its best to have at least 2-3 people on a surveillance team each on foot and/or car. (well skilled professionals like agencies have like 10 people all together so they can switch out if the orginal person/people get seen.) Edit: I forgot to say to check local laws.

    I wish I could give being a PI a try. Seems like it could be an interesting career. The requirements make it out of reach though.

    I love Modern Rogue. I've also been a full-time professional PI for 5 years. This was really bad
