I'm not sure how many people have tried this, I just thought of it the other day and found it to be quite fun, but I am curious about people's thoughts/opionions...

The secret butler perk (dremora that carries your items from Dragonborn DLC) can be used to store lockpicks, weapons, armor, etc. before you get arrested. After you are arrested, summon him and equip your items, then unleash chaos.

Tell me if you have tried it or are intrigued by this idea or anything that might add to the awesomeness of it.

About time you participate in this, Tijhan. Probably because I said I'd mention this first,

I think it's pretty damn cool. I never thought of it, though mainly that's because I don't get arrested. But this will be great for Markarth's mission.

Haha I only posted it because I did not think you would get back to me about opinions and such.

Probably not, no. I didn't even think you'd care. But this is just all the more reason to accept this ability over the others. Too bad I don't do the dark brother hood anymore, or I'd use this to pull weapons on the decoy emperor. Since if you don't poison him and choose to stab him, you'd think the Oculatus would try and search you.

But they're idiots, so.

Interesting, another way would be to have the Skeleton key as a quest item. I had Wuuthrad as a quest item during No One Escapes Cidna Mine and proudly wore the Amulet of Talos quest item inside the Thalmor Embassy

Easy? Just tcl out of jail or point at the door in the console and type "unlock" or "setopenstate 1". Now that, is easy.
