- Connor offered.

It's a vacation home-

- Connor?

The reason why I

have two strikes

is because your

brother is incompetent.

He's reckless.

All right, he can't read.

- Hey.

I looked over the plans

and they look good.

Okay?

Easy.

- All right.

Okay, after this,

it's our last one.

This time for real.

Our last one.

I should have listened to you.

We should have stopped

a long time ago,

but I kept...

- [Blair] Ollie!

- What?

- He won't work with you again.

We're doing this

job without you.

Sh*t.

- [Connor] All right,

let's go over this again.

- All right.

7:
00 AM we leave from here.

8:
30 we arrive at the house.

I back the van all the

way up to the front.

8:
35, you pick the lock,

and open the side door.

- Okay.

- Blair keeps the van runnin',

and you and me load up.

- Good job.

You got any problems

picking up the van?

- No.

- All right, so

it's all filled up,

we're ready to go?

- Filled up?

- Riley.

Come on, man.

Details.

- No...

I'm sorry.

You mad?

- I'm not mad, I just,

I'm disappointed.

All right?

You're my crew.

So bring your A game.

- I'll go do it right now.

- No, forget it.

I mean, we have enough

time tomorrow morning

to fill up the tank.

It's the principle of the thing.

Let's just go over this again.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Ollie.

What's he doin' here?

- Just hear 'im out.

- No.

- Connor, I just

came by to say that

I appreciate all the help.

- Jellyfish.

Yeah, I'm really just

helping my sister out.

So...

- I understand

that, and thank you.

- Yeah.

- So, uh, what's the plan?

- Well, 7 AM we leave from here-

- Riley, no.

Stop.

He's not part of the crew.

Didn't my sister tell you?

You're not in.

- I understand that, Connor.

I was just, wanted to see

what you guys had planned.

- No.

This is exactly my

problem with you.

- You're problem with me?

- You want me to take

care of this, boss?

- Step back.

- You just tell me to step back?

Don't tell me to step back.

I'll step back if I want.

I'll step off, I'll

step up to the streets

if I want to.

- You know what my problem

is with you, Ollie?

Your lack of respect.

That's my problem with you.

- I, I respect you.

- No you don't.

You don't trust me.

Never have.

- Maybe that's because

you've landed me in jail twice.

- That's not helping.

- You're not helpin'.

- Where'd you get this guy?

- I told you to play dead.

I escaped because I played dead.

- Played dead?

- Yeah.

That wasn't my fault.

- Get me?

- [Blair] Yeah.

- Where'd you come from?

I've known this

guy for six months.

- What is that?

- It's a good plan.

- I'm his crew, we go way back.

What about you?

- I'm his sister.

- Okay, everyone stop.

This is my lead, my

research, my job.

You're out.

- No, wait.

Connor listen.

Look, I'm begging you, okay.

I'm begging you to let me go.

Look, the only

reason Blair is here,

the reason why

we're in this mess,

it's because of me.

I didn't put her first,

and now we've lost everything.

And I can't risk losing her too.

I don't care about the plans,

I don't care about the score.

I'm begging you.

Please let me come.

- If I let you come...

I have ground rules.

First, the cut remains the same.

You're not gettin' any extra

money for coming along.

- Totally fair.

- Yeah.

- Second, you're lookout only.

You're not goin' inside.

- Can't he be lookout?

- It's fine.

Actually, yeah,

can he be lookout?

- I'm not done.

Last, you need to respect

my leadership skills.

I'm the leader, okay,

and you need to

treat me accordingly.

- You realize that real leaders

don't tell others they

have leadership skills,

but you got-

- You sure about that, man?

I mean, this is my heist, right?

- This is just a robbery.

Look, this is your heist,

you're the leader and I

respect your leadership skills.

- Too late, homie.

- All right.

- All right.

- [Connor] You can come

along on the heist.

- [Ollie] It's not a heist.

- Thank you.

- Hey, all right.

Yeah, okay.

- Thank you.

- Yeah.

- It means a lot.

(ominous music)

(screaming)

(dramatic music)

- You guys hear me okay?

- Yep.

- Clear up here.

- All right.

Be back in a minute.

All right, guys,

let me show you how

the big boys do it.

- I'm buyin' b*obs.

What are you gonna get?

- What?

- With the money from this.

My girlfriend

needs bigger b*obs.

It's the first thing I'm buyin'.

What about you?

- I like my b*obs.

So your girlfriend

just straight up said,

honey, buy me b*obs?

- Naw, she didn't know about it,

but she's mad at me, so,

I'm gonna surprise her.

Hey, turn around for a sec.

Where'd you get your b*obs?

Yours are real, huh?

Nice.

- Riley, if you don't

stop looking at my b*obs,

I will uppercut your dick,

I swear to God.

- That would hurt.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah, Riley's just

telling me about

how he's buying new b*obs

for his girlfriend.

What, is she mad at you

or something, Riley?

- Yeah.

She mad at me 'cause

I wanna go to Mars.

- This just keeps gettin'

better and better.

- Wait.

You were serious?

- Yeah, and I signed

up on a program,

where you can win a

one-way trip to Mars.

I think it's like

a nine-month ride in space.

And she don't understand

why I wanna do it,

but I'm like, come on, man.

It's Mars.

Like, I could be

the Magellan of space.

I mean, I might not

actually be Magellan.

I'm sure I'd be like his

first mate or somethin'.

I don't know.

I don't know.

They're probably

not gonna pick me.

- Don't give up hope, Riley.

You never know.

Hey, what's Connor doin'?

- Connor.

What's goin' on?

- [Connor] Everything's

fine, I'm just gonna

go around to the back.

- Hey, player, I

have one for you.

So, a cop shows up

to a crime scene,

and a citizen shows up and says,

officer, officer, quick,

there is a hundred

minorities and a plumber

that really need

your help, and um...

And the cop says, oh no,

we should help the plumber,

and the citizen says, see,

cops never care

about the minorities.

Wait, is that right?

- Okay.

A citizen runs up to a cop

and says a hundred minorities

and a plumber need your help,

the cop says, why the plumber?

Then the citizen says,

see, the cops never ask

about the minorities.

- Damn it.

- He just forgot all the

important parts, right.

- F***ing cops hate

minorities, man.

Dude, I got pulled over

for tinted windows once.

Hate the Po Po.

- I'm in hell.

(gun clicking)

What are you doing?

- Just being safe.

- There's no one in the house.

- You sure about that?

I mean, you never know.

- No, our whole job

depends on being sure.

You should always know.

How long did you monitor

the owner's pattern?

I know the plans say he won't

be back for a few weeks,

but how long did you

monitor his routine?

- Like, two-

- Two months?

- Two weeks.

Two months?

- Connor.

Connor, come in.

- I don't see him.

How long has it been?

- Just a few minutes.

- Did he forget

how to pick a lock?
