What started out as an innocent tweet by the FBI quickly escalated into a Twitter troll session of epic proportions. And one that will either have people clamoring for an internship or calling CPS to check on the mental state of one of the agency’s young workers.

Initially, it sounded like a great idea. The FBI gave several eager interns the opportunity to host their own Q&A on Twitter regarding the agency’s internship program.

But it was a woman named Kathryn who definitely got the brunt of the trolling.
My name is Kathryn and I'm a current intern. I'm here to answer any questions you may have! #FBIHonors

Oh, Kathryn. You had no idea what you were getting yourself into, did you?
It wasn’t long before a tweet storm of hilariously inappropriate questions hit, with Kathryn presumably hiding under a desk. Questions, of course, focused on Breaking Bad, X Files, cop shows and anonymous “asking for a friend” illegal activities.

Hi, Kathryn-Is that small incident I was involved in on the boat in 1997, still on my permanent record? The opossum survived, right?

At press time, “Kathryn” (if that’s her real name) hasn’t answered a single question.
