That Jar is way too small. They should have used a trash bag… or a broom.
Now, so they can enjoy the video during a midnight restroom visit.

Does the scorpion that surprised me in the bathroom count? I wasn’t that kind to them; they got introduced to Mr. Shoe once I was done.

Ditto. We found the scorpion because the cat was making noises I had never heard a cat make before. Looked over at her and she was facing down a scorpion. Soon to be a very flat scorpion. Thankfully she wasn’t stung.

Definitely send it now. What a refreshing wakeup experience it will cause. They’ll be ready for anything when they get to work. @GilbertWham

To be fair, pretty sure that was a lightweight plastic jar…

I can’t find a video or picture, but I remember a Get Smart episode where a “deadly tarantula” is let into Max’s apartment, and they capture it by putting a jar over it, but unfortunately the jar was full of horseradish. A tarantula may have been harmed in the making of that episode.
Our cat did the same as yours with a centipede, at least she let us know that an Unauthorized Critter was in the kitchen.

I’m still surprised no supervillains ever tried this tactic to defeat Peter Parker.
