The Underminer

That interrogation scene from the incredibles perfectly describes the situation here.

The Cops "You didn't finish it either! Did you stop the underminer from inflicting more damage!?"

Idiots "No."

The Cops "Did you stop him from robbing the banks?"

Idiots "No."

The Cops "Did you CATCH him?"

Idiot "No."

Hym "What did you think was going to happen there?"

Idiots "I donno I just thought I could lie and then everyone would let me steal his life because of the things he said and then even if something bad happened it wouldn't be my because I can always just blame Hym for saying the bad things and then steal the credit for him saying the good things."
