Run her through the Xerox machine, of course!

They have those at cocktail bars?

Sure, in the office.

Hmm, there's an interesting if geeky pickup line "Would you be
willing to come to my place for a quick sensor scan?"

A 'nerd' would have a portable scanner and not have to waste time
with cornball lines. ;-)

We've used the scanner already - for our own protection. The
"Come on up and see my etchings - er ... digital scans?" lines are
just the excuse.

You're doing something wrong, if you need an excuse.

An excuse is just a rationalization. We was gonna anyway, but
this makes it "plausible". "I was just in the neighborhood. Of
course I had to take two trains, a bus and a cab, just to be _in_ the
