Taking the 5th
Had a friend who was a barmaid at a topless bar. They unofficially sponsored a Casino Night. She was the bartender working only for tips. That saved her hide when 75 FBI agents raided the place looking for mobsters.
She had to go down to the FBI for questioning. Her lawyer told her in advance, "when they ask you a question, before you answer look at me. If I nod yes then answer. The minute I shake my head no, you take the 5th for every question after that. If you mistakenly answer a question after taking the 5th you are required to answer every question from then on."
About 10 minutes into questioning she got the NO signal. Had to take the 5th for about an hour and a half before the FBI gave up.
