So your point was that someone with a legitimate ticket, but who avoids the "beep" and "welcome onboard," is a stowaway? Or were you implying that there was actually a significance to your argument and that there is some form of "consent" in the beep and agent beyond the legitimacy of the ticket? And if you were implying that the consent has some relevance, then is that consent different for a legitimate ticket (perhaps with someone else's name) than it is for a forged ticket?
