Reminds me of:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0mOY7OMHh4

Dwight Schrute: I didn't know that you were at a party on Saturday night.

Ryan Howard: I go to a lot of parties.

Dwight Schrute: Okay, I'm gonna need to search your car. Give me your keys.

Ryan Howard: I am not giving you my keys.

Dwight Schrute: Don't make me do this the hard way.

Ryan Howard: What's the hard way?

Dwight Schrute: I go down to the police station on my lunch break. I tell a police officer, I know several, what I suspect you may have in your car. He requests a hearing from a judge and obtains a search warrant. Once he has said warrant, he will drive over here, and make you give him the keys to your car and you will have to obey him.

Ryan Howard: Yeah, let's do it that way.
