Foolproof Page #6

Synopsis: Twenty-something Torontonians and friends Kevin, Sam and Rob play a game they call Foolproof: they plan foolproof heists, but without the intention of actually carrying them out. They have a few rules in the game, including the three having the necessary technical and physical abilities to carry out the tasks required for the heist, the plan cannot include loaded guns, and there is no violence meaning that no one gets hurt. They try to be as meticulous if not more so than the best high stakes thieves. The fun is in knowing they could do it if they truly wanted. Their collective lives change when someone breaks into Sam's apartment and steals their latest plan for a jewelry warehouse heist. After the warehouse is hit, the culprit identifies himself to them as Leo 'The Touch' Gillette, a known but never convicted high stakes thief who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. He tells them that the break-in at Sam's apartment was not by accident, and that part of his grand plan is to us

You know, I got to admit,

I knew we lost you.

But this...

You've... come a long way...

Robert.

- Come on, Sammy,

you're bleeding out.

Look, just give us the bonds

and I promise, I'll help you

till somebody gets here.

- Ha...

Come on, there's no time.

What do you say?

- I say... balls.

You got laid, didn't you?

- How could you possibly know?

Well, it's freaky,

that's what it is.

- Yeah.

Man, you jumped.

- Yeah, for a moment,

I didn't think you made it out.

- What the hell happened?

- The fire started

in the basement.

By the time the alarm went,

flames were everywhere.

I couldn't get to the stuff,

Leo.

- Leo The Touch, I presume.

- Oh, don't get familiar...

sheriff.

- It's detective, actually.

You do this?

- Why would I?

- I got an anonymous call

about a half-hour ago.

You mind?

- It's on my back.

Permit's in my wallet.

- Caller said you pulled

the Hamish diamond job.

- You can't believe anything

that comes from

that bloody Crime Stoppers line,

now, can you?

- This has been fired recently.

- Target practice.

- You target practice with blanks?

I say... balls.

- Leo, some help

moving this stuff

would get us out of here

a lot faster.

- Hey, Detective!

We may have found what

you're looking for in the basement.

- Well, it's not mine.

My lawyer will prove that.

- Then you won't mind

if we open it.

- Be my guest.

Mind the fingerprints.

- Looks like a bond.

- Bearer bond.

Get these downtown.

And, as the man says...

be careful with the prints.

Well, you're looking

a little peevish, Leo.

- Sh... it! Oh, sh*t.

OK. OK, you got to jump.

They're burning faster

than we thought.

You've got to get to me now.

Hey. Hey, look at me.

Hey, Sam, you look at me, OK?

We're foolproof... right?

Sam?

- Yes, Kevin.

- Hold on.

Here... take my hand.

- Cute.

- You got it?

- Do you mind?

I got to get down there and die.

Good luck.

Hoo-ah... ha-ha-ha...

Hoo-ah...

Ha-ha-ha...

Hoo-ah... ha-ha-ha...

I was in the right place

But it must have been

the wrong time

I was saying

all the right things

But I must have used

the wrong line

And I was on the right trip

But I must have used

the wrong car

My head is in a bad place

And I wonder

what it's good for

'Cause I was

in the right place

But it must have been

the wrong time

'Cause I was

in the right world

But it seemed

like the wrong wrong wrong...

- Well...

- I got them.

- We did it!

- We did it!

- Man, we... we did it.

I can't believe

we actually pulled it off.

We really did it.

- No...

you did it!

You pulled it off.

What a performance.

Robert, you are the man!

Whoo-hoo!

- Ahh! Ha, ha...

- Hoo-ah!

- Yeah! Whoo!

- We've got one last bit of business

that we've got to deal with.

The diamonds.

- The diamonds.

- The diamonds.

- Souvenirs?

Kidding.

- You know, we never did look

into the process

of fencing diamonds, did we?

- Oh, God, Rob.

- We'll return them as planned,

for sure. All I'm saying is,

why not keep them

for a couple more days,

you know, just to see

if we learn more?

- All right, then, well, let's put it

to a vote then, shall we?

All those opposed? Nay.

Sam?

- Kidding... still kidding.

- Ha, ha...

Yeah, but you have to say "nay. "

- Right.

- Sam!

- What was the motion again?

Yes!

Whoo! I love this car!
