I have the greatest idea for a movie! I've said this before but this time it's for serious. There's this cop, right?
Right!
And he's a "by-the-books" cop who has a secret identity, but nobody knows him and he's hiding out in the real world. So in the movie "By The Books" he's a different kind of cop, doing other things (resting, eating salad instead of salad)! Then in the real one he's a undercover detective who does "by the books".
So the movie has this "By The Books" motif, but in a more practical sense, there's no book called "By The Books"?
Nope!
It's more practical, anyway. By the books are more used by the police, but they still get a good reputation. By the books are revealed to be just administrative laziness!
It's true! That means no real-life superheroes from history times to the present day!
NOBODY uses the word "By The Books" anymore!
I'm serious! It's absurd!
