Hypothetically speaking, what happens if stinky fluid gets down the Inlet vent?

Hello! I’m just asking this for shits and giggles, on most vehicles there’s an “Inlet Vent” that circulates air through the cabin of the vehicle. It sits under the windshield right under the windshield wipers on cars. My question pertains to vehicles of the 1970s model…
Mechanics, what would happen if a stinky fishy liquid… perhaps salmon / tuna juice were to get dumped down said vent? Would it affect anything in the cabin of the vehicle? Or would it drain out and do absolutely nothing?

It really doesn't matter where you put the fish, as long as it's hard to get to

Do you have any recommendations?

Put one in a flowerpot and the VCR and then stand in a room nearby and listen while the homeowner gets his arms sawed off with a chainsaw

Oh do I.
You can pull any plastic trim piece off a car really easily. Any bait will work, but prawns/shrimp especially

The BEST is behind the head unit, but usually requires a screwdriver to pull out. Important not to put it in vent systems or it'll get removed before it has time to cook
