Lindsay Lohan has a good reason to flash her new dental work: just like that her latest jailbird stint is history.

Lohan capped a busy weekend—that included (allegedly) crashing Leonardo DiCaprio's latest movie premiere party—by spending Sunday night at her home away from home, the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynnwood, Calif., according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

How long was her latest lockup?

Less than five hours in total. She checked in at just before 9 p.m. and was out by 1:30 a.m.

So much for 30 days.

As expected, due to the horribly overcrowded Los Angeles jail system, the 25-year-old trouble magnet didn't come close to logging the full sentence handed down by Judge Stephanie Sautner at last week's probation-revocation hearing.

Lohan had until this Wednesday to turn herself in.

Now, she has one day to report to her new probation officer and that has to get cranking on her judge-sanctioned to-do list, which includes 12 days of community service at the morgue and four 45-minute psychotherapy sessions by her next court date, Dec. 14.

We'll be there.
