In the digital wasteland that is 2018 Twitter, a beacon of hope now shines.
With the help of the social network, comedian Dan Harmon was able to reunite a lost drone with its pilot — all, of course, thanks to the good people of the internets.

One Twitter user, Amy Scarlata, knew from sightings around town that Harmon lived in her Los Angeles neighborhood. She'd also seen a sign for a lost drone in a park near her house.
Harmon enthusiastically responded to Scarlata's tip about the sign, and quickly, Scarlata became invested in the fate of the lost drone.
"I'm obsessed with an internet sleuthing challenge," Scarlata said. "DH lives in my hood so I know his area and felt like I could figure it out."

As a resourceful citizen of the internet, Scarlata said she turned to the neighborhood community message board service Nextdoor.com.
"I get Nextdoor emails every day, and besides home invasions and other terrifying stuff it's all lost and found pets and objects, so it was my first instinct," Scarlata said.
Lo and behold, she found a message seeking information on a lost drone!
Scarlata altruistically messaged the drone-seeker, referring the poster to Harmon's tweet.

Apparently, thanks to Scarlata's detective work, Harmon was able to verify that Twitter user @KingKort was the One True Owner of the errant drone!
Harmon agreed to reward the internet for their service in this reunion with a handoff photo.
