There's a very memorable scene where the special prosecutor Wilford Brimley character has a rather funny line, paraphrasing, by the time this inquiry is over, "I'm going to have someone's ass in my briefcase."
I've got to believe Mueller has a tab in his briefcase set aside with the name "Flynn, Michael".
possibly another reading "Flynn, Michael, Jr".

Not just the tab with the name but I'm picturing that weasel Sr Flynn's butt hanging out of the briefcase. We can all dream about him flipping and lots of prep walks.

Now we'll talk all day if you want to. But, come sundown, there's gonna be two things true that ain't true now. One is that the United States Department of Justice is goin' to know what in the good Christ - e'scuse me, Angie - is goin' on around here. And the other's I'm gonna have somebody's ass in muh briefcase.
You had a leak? You call what's goin' on around here a leak? Boy, the last time there was a leak like this, Noah built hisself a boat.
