Foolproof

30 seconds. How far?

120, 121, 122.

Hustle. You're only halfway.

10 floors. 252 steps in total.

- Including landings? - Including landings.

252. No sweat. I'm there.

Good. One minute ten.

You OK?

Yeah...

Keep going.

The 10th floor is secured without lock or handle from the stairs.

Apply our acid to the door. It'll melt through the cover

and the door hasp in about 90 seconds.

What's your overall time limit? Seven minutes.

- How can you be sure? - We stake out

each guard multiple times, and when fat boy here

leaves his post with the newspaper,

he's gone for an average of 12 minutes, never under seven.

- Reads while he craps? - Don't you?

It's through.

Great. Run. 11 laps gets you to the front door.

Hamish Jewellers,

office number 1044. Got to pick a Hodge deadbolt.

30 seconds.

20.

10.

Yes! Go, get in there!

You've got 30 seconds to bypass the alarm.

The target used is a Z-Ron Five

motion-detector system with 30-second delay

and silent alarms to the police and the lobby guard.

Match the line resistance and then we place the jumper cables

here... and here.

Error, error, error, error...

What?

Error, error, error,

error, error.

Go back. You said the system was a Z-Ron Five.

Was it their early beta model or a retail unit?

Beta shmeta, what's the diff?

Well, if it was the beta model,

then this circuit jump wouldn't work.

In fact, it would short out.

- Big time. - How do you know a beta unit?

Beta units are sealed

with crappy factory bolts.

Now, new models use nice, shiny chrome, hex-head screws.

I saw them.

They're hex-head screws.

Got a picture of the alarm box?

No.

Error, error.

Sorry, no cigar.

No picture, no points. Them's the rules. Sorry.

All right.

I'll get the photo tomorrow.

But, Rob, they're hex-head screws.

- Wait a sec. - We can't show the rest?

We're going to lance a safe.

It's the coolest burn we've ever done. Come on,

- let's keep going. - Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Sam.

You mind...

not doing that?

Game over. Thank you.

See, Sam, you have to run it flawlessly from start to finish.

Or else it's not foolproof.

Yeah, but I wanted to blast the safe.

Well, sorry.

Don't.

...relax, Rob.

You won't be needing that next time. You want to know why?

Because it's foolproof, that's why.

Don't walk away Eileen

Kev, can you spot me this round?

Every round.

Sorry. Every penny is going towards rent.

The landlord is threatening to cut off the heat.

Well, gee, Beaver,

maybe it's time you get a paper route.

Sam.

Please cut that out. Please.

I could get a paper route, or...

I could rob a jeweller.

Shut up!

- Will you keep your voice down? - Come on, you did nice work.

It's kind of like that French gang,

who pinched the Mercury Emeralds back in '82.

You read ahead.

- That's against the rules. - I just noticed

that you didn't look into how to...

fence the diamonds.

Here we go again.

Also against the rules, Rob.

It's about the art of the crime, not about moving stolen crap.

- But that's part of crime. - Yeah, but not part of the game.

All I'm saying is, why not broaden

the playing field, raise the bar a little?

Why not look into fencing, laundering and other stuff?

I'd be happy to ask a few questions.

Too risky. So keep your mouth shut, okay?

Well, I need more. I say we go further.

- Really? - Really?

All those opposed?

- Nay. - Nay.

Motion denied.

Now, drop it... here.

- Put it away. - I'm on my bike.

- You hold on to it. - No, no, no, no.

You're plan coordinator this round. It's your job.

Now, take it.

Kevin, relax.

You are so uptight.

Stan, hey. Listen, perfect timing.

I think you're making a big mistake,

paying out on that basement fire.

Oh, yeah? Why?

Well, because I don't think we pay insurance claims

to people who blow up their own property.

It was an electrical fire.

No, no. Take a closer look, Stan.

Check out the amount of sodium- hypochlorite residue at the scene.

All right, that's bleach, smart guy. It was a laundry room?

Nope, it's not just bleach and not at those levels.

And not with so much hydrogen peroxide mixed in, either.

Now, you put all those big words together,

and what do you get? Sodium chlorate.

Ka-boom!

Homemade bomb? Yes.

Big insurance payoff? Not so much.

Think.

Maggie.

You look lovely today.

- What do you want? - Can I have some courier receipts?

- Why? - Because I've got gum.

There's another karaoke bash Friday night.

Perfect for getting drunk and making a total ass of yourself.

We could go together.

That would be nice, Maggie.

But...

Weekends are kind of bad for me.

You haven't been to a single office function in the yearyou've been here.

People are starting to think you're a knob.

Really?

Hi. How ya gawin'?

Morgan and Fairchild accounting? Sign there.

I'm sorry, but you have the wrong address.

Oh, no. This is unit 1044, right?

Yeah, but we're not accountants.

We're diamond wholesalers.

Then, we've got a bit of a problem, don't we?

Let me check the waybill, then. It's in here somewhere.

Yeah, it's in one of those.

We'll have a quick look through that.

Not even close.

Gay koala.

Look, it says 1340 Spadina on the envelope.

- Would you look... - That's across the street.

That would explain it, wouldn't it? Sorry to take up yourtime...

I had some pints for breakfast... Be lucky to find my way home.

Thank you.

Sorry about that. It's a new camera.

Sorry about that.

Oi, there's a chairthere.

Looks like a nice set of hex-head screws there, Rob,

you dingo's anus.

Hello?

Hey, Sam, guess what? We're foolproof.

- Shit, Kev, you won't like this. - What's up?

I was robbed.

- What? Are you all right? - I'm fine.

Its just... they broke into my place.

Gee, Sam, I'm sorry. Well, as long as you're all right.

Kevin...

they took the envelope.

The envelope?

So, that's all they took? The laptop and the plans?

And my gym bag, but the plans were in my gym bag.

Sam! You left the plans in the gym bag?

Probably took it to carry the computer.

How did they get in?

- Kicked the door. - Smash and grab.

- Amateurs. - Even so, they still got our plans.

They won't contact the police. It's just paperwork.

It's kind of specific paperwork.

What if they decided... to give it a crack?

Boost the jeweller?

We're talking about a bunch of amateurs here, OK? Punks.

Our plan has lock-picking, circuitry, chemistry,

not to mention some pretty high-end hardware

to burn through that safe.

No, no, no, that's not going to happen.

Yeah, well, still?

It looked like a pretty good plan.

Pretty good? It's foolproof.

Hell, yeah.

One minute. Make it fast and simple, then we got to go.

Yeah, and try and sound pleasant.

- Mr. Hamish, please. - Who may I say is calling?

It's Helen Calling. Helen Hayes.

Hello?
