He enters a senators office, plays around with phone lines, admits he had intentions of interrupting the service there to "prove" there was nothing tying them up, and he got caught...

but... just out of curiosity...isnt one of the fellas with him is the son of a US district attorney?
According to the affidavit by Steven Rayes of the FBI...
