I've thought of a better idea since then.
Joe and Bob get together, spill some of Joe's blood all over Bob's car. Joe
and Bob are seen arguing in a public place, maybe a fist fight erupts. Joe
disapears the next day. Witnesses tell police about the fight. Joe's blood
is found in Bob's car, Bob is charged with murder, given the death penalty,
goes into cryonic suspension. Then Joe reapears, says "what? I was just on
vacation".
