My apartment building is being inspected by the city of Los Angeles in about a month. Tomorrow, the landlords are coming in to do a pre-inspection. They told us on friday. My roommate's boyfriend keeps his snake in our apartment and we're not allowed to have pets. Unfortunately they went out of town for the weekend, and despite my roommate's boyfriend telling me someone was going to come to take the snake, no one has. It's almost 2am and they're supposed to come anytime between 9am and 3:30pm. I need to get rid of this snake but I don't know where I can take him. I thought of hiding him in a closet under some dirty laundry but I'm not certain whether or not they'll look there.
What do?

Just put it in your car.

Do you have any friends or family nearby?
Drive it up to them early morn. Bonus points if it's someone you don't really like

Will he be ok in there? I'd have to sneak him in there now because they'll see me in the morning.

Your boyf is a twat. Endangering your lease because he's too lazy to sort out his snek? I'd be pissed
Tell your landlord you accepted it from a friend to take care of for a few days and ask him/her if that's okay.
Some vets have a pet sitting type of deal and open up early in the morning, especially exotic vets, they watch reptiles while people are on vacation and the snake will be properly cared for
I don't know what the inspection will be like for you, but if I was at an inspection for my apartment and my landlord was looking through my dirty laundry I'd kick him the fuck out immediately.
I assume it has a tank that you can move. If so I think putting it in the closet/under your bed with some towels/clothes over would be fine as long as you are going to be there for the inspection and the snake doesn't give a fuck.
The car is also a good option as long as you have a sheet or something. If it's not too hot or cold it probably won't hurt the fucker for an hour or two.
Put the tank beside a table, couch, or a bed. Throw a blanket over it and then put some trinkets, an alarm clock, some books. Basically make it look like a night stand. The best camouflage is in plain sight.
