00:00A large chair swiveled around to reveal a tiny, skinny guy.
00:04What?
00:05You think all mafiosos are tall, fat, bald, and wear gold rings?
00:09Sorry to disappoint you with my looks, but trust me,
00:13I am every bit as ruthless.
00:16Something about his steely gray eyes
00:18sent a shiver down my spine.
00:20I believed him.
00:21His name was Pierre Soufflé, which was obviously a lie.
00:25And the job he had for us was to steal a priceless painting
00:28from a museum and replace it with a fake.
00:30That's the painting?
00:31It's, um, tiny.
00:33What's your problem with tiny things and people?
00:36It's also kind of stupid.
00:38What is that?
00:39Ha, ha, a raccoon eating a cheeseburger?
00:42It's worth $10 million, so the joke's on you, dummy.
00:48Now, the owner of the painting has allowed the museum
00:51to borrow it for only three days,
00:53so we don't have a lot of time.
00:56Wouldn't it be easier to steal it from the owner's house?
00:59Everyone, look at Lady Einstein coming up
01:03with brilliant ideas.
01:05Why didn't we think of that ourselves?
01:08Happy to help.
01:10How else we sort of that ourselves?
01:13Trust me, the museum is easier.
01:15Why choose us?
01:17It's a very stupid security measure,
01:20but the museum's floors are activated by pressure
01:23sensors at night.
01:25Anything above 55 kilograms and they go off.
01:30I haven't been able to find a boy who weighs less than that.
01:34Ellie, get the weighing scale.
01:37Meredith weighed 52 kg, while I weighed 55.1.
01:41How is this possible?
01:42You eat so much more than I do.
01:44What can I say?
01:45I got all the good genes.
01:47OK, you're out, fatty.
01:50Mildis, you're my leading lady.
01:52The plan was to enter the museum
01:54through its large air ducts, carrying
01:56the fake painting with us.
01:57We first had to make a stop in the security room
01:59and disable all the cameras and alarms.
02:01Then we'd crawl back through the ducts
02:03till we reached the exhibit area.
02:05And I'd lower Meredith down along with the painting
02:07so she could switch them out.
02:09As Meredith made it to the bottom,
02:10I dropped the painting to her and she missed it.
02:13And we heard a loud crack.
02:14Oh my god, did you break the frame?
02:16Me?
02:17It's your fault.
02:18Who told you to throw it like that?
02:19I was expecting you to catch it.
02:21But what was I thinking?
02:22You made us lose the Frisbee tournament in eighth grade
02:25because you're so bad at catching things,
02:26unless it's someone's boyfriend.
02:29Seriously?
02:30You were so distracted by that hot boy on the bleachers,
02:32your throwing skills were completely off.
02:35FYI, that boy was totally into me.
02:37Why are we even talking about Frisbees and boys right now?
02:40You started it.
02:41No, I didn't.
02:42OK, shut up.
02:43Let me think how to fix this.
02:44Are you trying to glue it together with your saliva?
02:47You got a better idea?
02:48Any idea would be a better idea than that.
02:50Look, it's a museum.
02:52They must fix broken, ancient things here all the time,
02:54right?
02:55I'm looking at the floor map, and there
02:56are some offices in the left wing.
02:58I'll go get some glue.
02:59It took me an hour to find glue and return to our spot,
03:02and I found Meredith eating a bowl of ramen.
03:04Where did you get that?
03:06I brought a packet of instant ramen with me,
03:07and you were taking forever, so I went
03:09to make it in the staff kitchen.
03:11There was someone's chicken sandwich in the fridge,
03:13so I used the meat from that.
03:14And there was also some tofu, and I
03:16added a dash of oyster sauce.
03:17I'm so happy you chose this moment in your life
03:20to become a gourmet chef.
03:21Just send the painting back up so I can fix it.
03:23I tried to fill in the crack as best I could,
03:26then sent it back down to Meredith,
03:27who took the real one off and put the fake one on the wall.
03:30But just as she started walking back,
03:32the whole floor lit up suddenly, and a blaring sound went off.
03:35Oh my god, what's happening?
03:37I don't know.
03:39Is the painting heavier than the fake one?
03:40Just hurry up.
03:41We've got to get out now.
03:42I pulled up Meredith and the real painting
03:44and closed the opening in the ceiling
03:45seconds before security burst in.
03:48We crawled down the ducts and out of the building
03:50as fast as we could.
03:51We ran a few blocks down where Pierre's van was waiting
03:54for us, and we sped away.
03:57Well, I would have preferred if you hadn't alerted all
04:00of New York about a break-in.
04:02Now I'll have to move this painting around with cops
04:06crawling all over the city.
04:09Never mind.
04:10Here's your check.
04:11And Claire, try to lose some weight.
04:13Au revoir.
04:14And without warning, we were dumped on a dark street.
04:16We scrambled to our feet, headed for the subway,
04:18and made it home.
04:20It was all over the news the next morning
04:22that someone had broken into the museum
04:24and switched off all the security systems.
04:26But apparently, nothing had been stolen
04:28except a chicken sandwich and a block of tofu
04:30from the staff kitchen.
04:31You ate the entire block?
04:34Hey, I'm not the one who needs to watch her wait.
04:36I do not need to.
04:37Ugh, whatever.
04:39Listen, I've been meaning to talk to you about something.
04:41It'll have to wait.
04:42I got a hair appointment.
04:43We'll talk over dinner?
04:44Yeah, sure.
04:46I was going to tell Meredith that I wanted
04:48a break from this life.
04:49And I wasn't sure how she'd react.
04:50As I sat in a cafe later, I suddenly found
04:53a cute guy next to my table.
04:54Mind if I sit here?
04:56No other empty seats.
04:58I won't disturb you.
04:59I promise.
05:01We actually ended up talking for over an hour.
05:03And I found him sweet and charming.
05:05I'd love to meet you again if you're free.
05:08I don't live in New York, but I come every weekend.
05:11You come here for work?
05:12No.
05:13Actually, I came to visit my mom who's
05:15admitted in the hospital here for a medical trial.
05:18She has some rare brain issue that sent her into a coma.
05:21Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
05:23How long has she been in a coma?
05:25Six years now.
05:27It's been the toughest thing I've ever dealt with.
05:29Actually, she was part of this other really promising
05:31clinical trial before.
05:32But that didn't work for her.
05:35He was in a hospital in Connecticut.
05:36As he kept talking, I suddenly felt like I was spinning
05:40around very fast.
05:41And I could hear my heartbeat in my ears.
05:43My chest felt heavy, and I could barely breathe.
05:46I don't know what I said to the boy.
05:48I just ran out of there and didn't stop
05:50till I got to our hotel room.
05:51Hey, I was about to call you.
05:53What's wrong?
05:54Claire, are we in trouble?
05:56I am a terrible person.
05:59Hey, you're not that terrible, just a bit ugly.
06:02You don't have cops after you, do you?
06:04Meredith, I met someone.
06:07It's not a cop, is it?
06:08No, I met a random guy in a cafe.
06:11And his mom was in a clinical trial.
06:13I hope this gets interesting at some point.
06:15In a hospital in Connecticut.
06:18Oh my god, the same hospital mom was in and the same trial?
06:22What a small world.
06:23No, it's not the same trial.
06:25It's a different hospital, too.
06:26OK, I'm bored again.
06:28The coincidence made me interested for a bit.
06:30Meredith, his mom's been in a coma for six years.
06:34We did that to someone.
06:36Didn't you just say it's not the same trial?
06:38Yes, but for a few seconds.
06:40I thought it was the same trial.
06:42And I just realized for the first time today
06:45that we did something awful to someone out there.
06:47When we switched the patient files,
06:49we took away someone else's chance to get better.
06:52You realized this just now?
06:55Are you dumb or something?
06:56Of course that's what we did.
06:58I mean, I never really thought about it like this.
07:00It was just a name on a file.
07:02But meeting someone who's going through that with their mom
07:05for years, it just made it so real.
07:08We're really bad people.
07:10Not really bad, if you consider all the bad people
07:13in the world.
07:14OK, look, we didn't have a choice.
07:16If I had to do something like that to save mom all over
07:18again, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
07:20OK, so we did that to save mom.
07:23But what about everything else?
07:24We had a choice to not continue living this life.
07:27But we didn't stop.
07:29And I want to stop.
07:30What's the big deal, man?
07:31It's not like we're stealing from poor people.
07:34It doesn't matter who we steal from.
07:36It's not about them.
07:37It's about us and the people we've become.
07:40I don't want to be this person anymore.
07:42Look, just calm down.
07:43I'll get you a piña colada, and everything will seem better.
07:46But I pushed her away angrily, and she landed on the floor.
07:49She looked up at me, stunned.
07:51No, I am done.
07:54Meredith and I barely spoke over the next few days.
07:57And I had no idea what was going through her head.
07:59But I'd made my decision.
08:01I was going to go home.
08:02I sent Freddie a text to say I'd be coming next week.
08:05And he called me back.
08:06Hey, I'm actually in New York with my parents
08:08for the weekend.
08:10Can we catch up?
08:11The moment I saw Freddie, I just burst into tears.
08:14And he hugged me tight.
08:15As we talked over dinner, he assured me
08:17that he'd talk to Meredith and try to make her come home, too.
08:20We had just stepped out of the restaurant
08:21and walked two blocks down, when suddenly, a black van
08:24screeched to a halt beside us.
08:26And some men pulled us in, handcuffing and blindfolding
08:29us.
08:30When our blindfolds came off, I realized
08:32we were in Pierre's quarters.
08:33And I found Meredith there, too.
08:35Uh, what's going on here?
08:38Welcome, welcome.
08:41We just gathered here to discuss a teensy, weensy,
08:44itsy bitsy issue.
08:47Oh, Meredith, go ahead and tell them
08:50the moronic thing of titanic proportions that you just did.
08:54Apparently, Meredith had found her way to Pierre's headquarters
08:57and stolen the real painting from him.
09:00She had then tried to sell it to a buyer she'd arranged.
09:02And while the exchange was about to happen on the docks,
09:05the cops had showed up.
09:06Meredith had barely managed to escape,
09:08but the buyer and the painting were in police custody.
09:11The police didn't let it get out in the news.
09:15But they knew the real painting had been stolen and replaced
09:20with a fake.
09:21They were probably watching every dock, airport,
09:25and train station to see if someone
09:27would try and move it out.
09:29And your sister practically handed it to them.
09:33What were you thinking?
09:35It's your whole quitting the biz talk that made me do it.
09:38I did it for us so we could sell the painting
09:40and retire to Bora Bora for good.
09:42And what the heck is Freddy doing here?
09:44Hi, guys.
09:45I'm Freddy, old friend.
09:47Nice to meet you.
09:48Not terrified at all.
09:50You made me lose a fortune, and you double-crossed me.
09:55And Pierre does not take betrayal well.
09:59Harry, Sam.
10:01Yes, sir.
10:02You know what to do.
10:04Uh, boss?
10:06I'm not really sure how I feel about punching a girl.
10:10Yeah, boss.
10:11I am not really comfortable with this.
10:14Maybe we can just punch the boy.
10:17I'm not really a boy.
10:18I used to be a girl.
10:19Ask Claire and Meredith.
10:20We practically grew up like sisters.
10:23Please don't hurt him.
10:24He has nothing to do with this.
10:25Silence!
10:26You buffoons.
10:28I didn't say hurt anyone yet.
10:30I just wanted you to threaten them.
10:32But of course, you're useless.
10:35And I'll do myself.
10:36Torture Harry and Sam after this meeting.
10:39Now, get lost.
10:40Then Pierre shifted his cold gaze to me.
10:44That painting is everything to me.
10:47And I want it back.
10:49And now the only way we can get it is from the owner himself.
10:53You, Claire, will be executing this mission.
10:57The heir of that painting is a young, charming millionaire.
11:01And you will get to know him, become his girlfriend,
11:04kiss, cuddle, yada, yada.
11:07You need to earn his trust completely,
11:09so he lets you into his life and his home.
11:12Then when the time is right, you will steal the painting
11:15from a high-security vault inside his house
11:17and bring it back to me.
11:19You will do this if you care about your new own sister
11:23and this girl-slash-boy and his family
11:26and your mother and your stupid husband
11:28and your old neighborhood.
11:31What if I fail?
11:33I don't think you want the answer to that.
11:36But once you succeed, I'll give you
11:39two and a half to go to Bois-Bois and never return.
11:43I'd be ecstatic to never set eyes on you
11:46annoying girls again.
11:51I had my eyes on the target from across the street.
11:54As soon as I saw him walk towards the cafe,
11:56I headed for the entrance.
11:57Just as he opened the door, I bumped straight into him,
12:00spilling coffee all over his shirt.
12:02Oh, god.
12:03I'm so sorry.
12:04I wasn't looking.
12:05I'll pay for the dry cleaning.
12:06His arm rested gently on mine.
12:08Hey, it's OK.
12:10It was an accident.
12:11I looked up into his bright green eyes.
12:14In fact, you're the one who's without a coffee now.
12:16Can I get you a new one?
12:19Sure, I'd like that.
12:20Can we also start over?
12:22Hi, I'm Christina.
12:23Hello, I'm Eric.
12:30I'm sorry.
12:31I'm sorry.
12:33I'm sorry.
12:35I'm sorry.
12:37I'm sorry.
12:39I'm sorry.
12:41I'm sorry.
12:43I'm sorry.
12:45I'm sorry.
12:47I'm sorry.
12:49I'm sorry.
12:51I'm sorry.
12:53I'm sorry.
12:55I'm sorry.
12:57I'm sorry.
12:58I'm sorry.
