  Question: Why did the bar brawl end up being a net positive event for Dennis?
  
   (A) Because the Martian was a space pirate, and the police were pleased at being able to grab him, and gave Dennis the credit.

   (C) Because a huge money roll fell out of the Martian's pocket during the fight, and afterward, Dennis noticed it and pocketed it.
   (D) The bartender paid his tab out of gratitude for ridding them of the troublemaking Martian.
