I didn't understand this joke
Cindy: Bobby and I are looking for kiddie Carial (sp?) with Bobby's new detective kit.
Bobby: I'm a private dick!
Roy/Trevor: Nah, too easy...
What did Roy mean?

roy meant that they were too easy to manipulate...like they would take anything (e.g. the money that was given)
shareI take it to mean that Roy/Trevor agrees that Bobby is, indeed, a world-class dork. They used to call detectives and FBI agents "dicks" in the 40's as a code name.

Mischief managed!
brainbug 27,the joke is intended to show that Roy is a sleazy guy,and at one point,he gave the kids money and he even said "Go to the Gap". So,Roy is overall,a sleazy man. I won't say conman because that might be offensive (oh,no,I might be a Brady).
shareHe is saying that it's too easy to make a joke out of so he won't even try.
shareNot only is it sad that some people didn't get the obvious joke; it's even sadder that some of the people trying to EXPLAIN it either didn't get the joke or didn't know how to explain it.

Yeah....kinda funny though....
shareLOL... I was thinking that too... Seems like those who are explaining could use some explaining...
If someone told me they were a "Private Dick," I'd think something more perverse... Although we know they "meant" private detective, I'd be thinking something else...
