It's not theatrical enough if they do it at the checkpoint.

They have to find the water bottle, yell at you for it, confiscate it, and force you to go buy another one down the concourse so they can have one of their idiots wave magic paper over it and show everyone what an awesome job they're doing in protecting the world from water bottles on airplanes.
