It's hard to believe that the police cared, or really that anybody cared so much.

> Davis arrives at Ippudo NY sweating and a bit shaken up

Davis might benefit by not being so attached to his phone.

sweating: running back to try to find his iPhone + trying to make it to a meeting on time

shaken up: losing a 500-600$ iPhone would shake me up too

I don't see anything out of the ordinary there.

The cost of paying the police to track down the iPhone is probably higher than the cost of a new iPhone. Should the police have gotten involved when there was no evidence of an actual crime?

I lost a smartphone in Brooklyn and the NYPD bent over backward to get it back and then asked me to fudge the date that I filed the report, which I told them I was uncomfortable doing. It was very weird. They must be able to book it as some great achievement at the station.
