On the Tape

When a cops bribe money is taped under their desk. Which was the primary delivery method for being "On the take." Which no one in the history of bribery has ever used to describe being bribed; until being caught. "Are you on the tape?" However... Is relatively innocuous.

"Are you on the tape?"

"What?"

"Oh my wedding tape. You were there right?"

OR

"You on the tape?"

"Taking the wife to Cabo next week."
