Oh sorry Dan, that was a sly reference to a bit of trivia any American over the age of about 60 will get.  There was an old detective show called Hawaii Five-0, where the detective (Steve McGarrett) had a young deputy named Daniel (Dano) Williams.

McGarrett would always figure out who dunnit, they always caught the bad guy and every single show ended with his commanding his deputy "Book em, Dano!" or some variation on that theme.

OK so... the smoke em Dano was a bit of stretch, but I like stretches.

I completely get it if I need to explain it to people outside the US and young people, no worries.
