check the roomba
Did they check the couch cushions? You’ll be surprised what ends up there. Also the refrigerator! Did you know most lost remotes are found in the refrigerator . True fact, I saw it on the Internet. The fridge may be the best starting point ’cause the chances of seeing this helicopter again are very remote.
that’s a great idea, you could call if Airwulf or such
Maybe some could take that premise & turn it into a television show
