Dominic Monaghan thought after getting tossed out of Voyeur -- for "inappropriate gestures towards women" -- that if he just wandered around outside for a few minutes and then politely asked to get back in the club, everything would be forgiven.
He was wrong.

Rip Torn is so in need of help, even the CEO of the bank he allegedly broke into on Friday night wants to see someone stage an intervention.
Torn was arrested after cops found him drunk inside a bank in Connecticut with a loaded revolver.
Mark E. Macomber, President/CEO of Litchfield Bancorp in Connecticut, tells TMZ no one was in the building at the time Torn allegedly broke in -- and the only damage was to the smashed window cops say was Torn's point of entry.
Macomber says he didn't believe Torn was trying to hurt anyone or steal anything. Macomber spoke to authorities in Connecticut who told him Torn was found lying on the floor. He said cops believe Torn thought he was in his own house.
He called the incident a "serious matter," but seemed to think Torn needed help with his alcohol problem more than anything else.
Torn was charged with carrying a pistol without a permit, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, first-degree burglary, first-degree criminal trespass and third-degree criminal mischief. He is due in court on Monday.
UPDATE: As of Sunday morning, Rip Torn is still in custody.

Rip Torn was arrested Friday night for allegedly breaking into a bank while drunk and armed with a loaded revolver.
State police responded to an alarm at the Litchfield Bancorp building in Salisbury, CT at 9:40 PM last night. Police say they found Torn "with a loaded revolver" and he was "highly intoxicated."
Law enforcement sources tell us Torn gained access through a broken window, which they believe Torn broke himself.
Torn was taken to the Troop B barracks in North Canaan and is being held on $100,000 bond.
Cops say Torn was charged with carrying a pistol without a permit, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, first-degree burglary, first-degree criminal trespass and third-degree criminal mischief.
According to the Register Citizen, he is scheduled to appear in court on February 1.
Rip has had previous alcohol-related arrests -- one of which yielded the greatest mug shot in the history of mankind.

Adrian Pasdar -- the guy who plays the flying Senator Nathan Petrelli on "Heroes" -- was busted for DUI early this morning after cops say he was burning rubber and swerving all over a Los Angeles freeway.
TMZ has learned 44-year-old Pasdar was arrested at 2:59 AM after cops clocked him going more than 90 mph on the 405 Freeway in L.A. We're told cops also noticed Pasdar was "failing to maintain his lane."
According to the police report, when cops approached Pasdar's ride, they detected the odor of alcohol -- and decided to give him a field sobriety test. Pasdar was eventually placed under arrest for suspicion of DUI.
Pasdar -- who is married to Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines -- was taken to a nearby jail, where he was booked and placed behind bars. He's listed at 5'10" and 175 lbs.
His bail was set at $15,000 -- we're told the bail amount was so high because the actor refused to take a breathalyzer.

Comedian Ron White didn't do enough drinkin' inside a fancy Hollywood steak house last night -- so dude brought his Jesus Juice to go.
White tried to pound down his wine outside Boa last night -- even though he admitted he probably shouldn't be drinkin' on the Sunset Strip.
Dude was funny as hell though -- so really, he can do whatever the hell he wants.

Character actor Ed Lauter wanted to drive home from a Golden Globes party over the weekend -- but security thought the slurring star had one too many drinks to get behind the wheel and stopped him cold.
Lauter was getting into his car outside Chateau Marmont when security intervened and told the guy to take a cab instead ... a suggestion he was none too happy with.
Though Ed kept saying he was "fine" and even dropped coach Larry Brown's name in an attempt to win points with the guard, he eventually relented -- and got a taxi.
Attempts to reach Ed for comment were unsuccessful.

Former NBA star Jayson Williams was arrested on suspicion of DWI early this morning -- after his SUV struck a tree in Manhattan around 3:15 AM.
Williams, whose vehicle careened into a tree just off the 20th Street exit of FDR Drive, was in the passenger seat of his black Mercedes when cops arrived on scene -- but witnesses say he was driving and officers said no one else was in the car.
Jayson was taken to Bellevue Hospital with minor injuries.
You might remember Williams as the guy who accidentally killed his driver back in 2002 with a shotgun. The jury was deadlocked in 2004 on a reckless manslaughter charge and he is scheduled to be retried.

Bow Wow clearly has something in common with Chris Brown -- they both commit crimes behind the wheel.
The Artist Formerly Known as Lil' Bow Wow, who partied with Brown and Akon last night at LIV nightclub at the Fontainebleau in Miami, posted a message to his Twitter page just past midnight that read, "Face numb im whippin the lambo. Tispy as f*k. Just left @livmiami."
A few minutes later, Mr. Wow wrote, "Im f**ked up!!! Ohhhh damn. Y i drive the lambo. Chris might have to drive after next spot."
BTW, the tweet isn't enough for cops to make an arrest.
UPDATE -- Bow Wow has since taken down the aforementioned tweets and apologized, saying, "Apologize for that tweet. it was stupid and immature. not a way i want to kick my #2010 year off. i got too much good stuff lined up. my bad."
