"Broke in" rather presupposes the point.
If we're analogizing, an exterminator seeing rat droppings in your restaurant and offering to solve your problem rather than letting the department of health deal with it, is a slightly more realistic example.
- DougBTX 12y agoTaking that a step further: it is like an exterminator going around different of restaurants, then crawling under customer's tables while they are eating, saying, "Don't mind me, just looking from rat droppings." A more legit exterminator would agree to come past while the customers were not there.
- danielweber 12y agoLegally, pushing open a closed door is "breaking in." It's precisely how a lawyer would describe someone who opened the door to your business to come in and look around for stuff.
