Ocean's Twelve Page #6

- No, no, no.

- Maurizio, listen to me.

- Agent Lahiri...

...a 1077 is not a small thing.

Unless you can tell me

what they are after...

...there is no point in discussing it.

Hey...

Because LeMarc stole it in 1980

when 23 others failed.

Because the Night Fox is trying to prove

he's better than Ryan and his friends.

This is ridiculous.

You say the egg will be stolen.

Then you say LeMarc already stole it

24 years ago.

- Which one is it?

- Both.

What?

LeMarc's wife made him

put the egg back.

When I signed a 1077 for you

on the Bulgari case...

...you requisitioned 30 of my men for

three months and made zero arrests.

I won't do it again.

First, we cannot go at night.

The laser grid in the Great Hall's

impossible to beat.

- Nothing's impossible.

- This is impossible.

It's in constant motion, programmed

to improvise randomly...

...meaning we can't

plan our way through.

All right.

So it's a daytime play.

We're still short three on the inside since

Isabel made you and Yen and Danny.

We could try a Smuggler's Paradise.

- It hasn't worked since the '50s.

- '54, actually.

What's option two?

Baby Jane, Squeaky Wheel,

followed by a Number-Two Son.

It's complicated, but it's got a high

success rate. The only problem is...

We can't do it without a grease man

on the inside, without Yen.

We'll have to risk it.

We'll put him in disguise.

10:
10, I leave the caf,

proceed west. 10: 11?

- I enter the second-floor bathroom.

- 10:
13?

Approach the Spanish Steps

from the south.

Basher and I enter by the main entrance.

- 10:
15?

- I help Yen into the ventilation duct.

- 10:
18?

- I move Reuben to the Egg Room.

- I pause in the Great Hall while...

- I go to the Egg Room.

- 10:
21?

- Yen enters the mainframe room.

He cuts power to grid 14-A.

He radios me. I signal Linus.

- I then go to the Egg Room.

- 10:
22?

I drop my keys and move Reuben

to his mark.

- I blind camera one.

- I blind camera two.

- I blind camera three.

- Camera four.

- I make the switch.

- Right.

- 10:
24?

- I pull to the corner of the main entrance.

I meet Danny at the Steps.

We head north. 10:25?

Turk and I make the drop.

All right. Really good stuff, guys.

Really good work. All right,

we'll pick it up here in an hour.

It's a slam-dunk.

- Great.

- 10:
45, we all get arrested.

You bet.

- How was Toulour?

- He was predictable.

You hear from Nagel?

He'll be here.

That's a lot to presume

from a guy like Nagel.

Follow it up.

This is Isabel.

It's Johan. I just set a 6:00 meeting

for you with an Andre Ciment...

...who says he had four paintings stolen

from his house in Lake Como.

- And when was this?

- Sometime Friday.

He's missing two Monets,

a Turner and a Degas.

- Which Degas was it?

- Blue Dancers.

Supposedly, there's surveillance video, but

I haven't been able to confirm that yet.

It is all about error correction.

Three thousand separate,

translucent, digital slivers...

...instead of the 1000

I thought it would be.

Thank God it doesn't have to move.

Re-creating the lighting was a pain.

It's a mixture of tungsten and real light.

But I think the color rendition

is pretty damn accurate.

Batteries are in the base.

Two minutes maximum.

You're good.

- It's good, Roman. You're a genius.

- I think I am.

You'd have never got past that grid.

That's why you're paying me double.

- What? No, no, no.

- You got my message.

- Who's that sexy phone voice? Early Bond.

- What message?

The message I left with

Sexy Phone Voice Nicole.

On your mobile.

Got something going

with Gunther? Am I in?

- Okay, when did you leave the message?

- Two days ago.

She had your phone.

- She has your...?

- Yeah.

- That means that she's...?

- Yeah.

- Well, you better...

- Yeah.

- That's great.

- I mean...

So...? So who's got my money?

Who has got my bloody money?

Jesus.

Sorry to hear about your mom.

She was an amazing...

Well, I thought so, at least.

She hated you. I should've

picked up on that.

- She hated all thieves.

- No wonder you fought.

Excuse me?

- May I have my phone back?

- No.

- That's a nice pull, by the way.

- Thanks.

Did you get that tingling sensation

down your spine when you did it?

Or is that none of my business?

You considered a career change?

Have you?

I tried hotels.

I'm better at this.

Went by the caf for some tiramisu.

- It wasn't the same.

- Who's the Night Fox?

- They did something to the eggs.

- Why accept his challenge?

Because he'll lose.

And how can you beat him?

We can't.

You're not making any sense.

Okay.

The Bulgari job you pulled with Frank

when we were together...

...I knew it was you.

Why didn't you say something?

Why didn't you...

...Robert?

I didn't want it to end.

You assumed it would.

Was I wrong?

You shouldn't be here.

I have a meeting.

Someone stole a whole bunch

of paintings in Lake Como.

Interesting. Any leads?

The next time I see you...

...I'm arresting you.

And Ocean and anybody else

I recognize.

Fair enough.

- Ready?

- Right.

Yes, of course I do.

My Blue Dancers, my Degas.

They took it, unfortunately,

and I really would like...

Do you have any enemies?

Anybody out there who would

feel wronged by you?

No. I can't see anyone.

But why? You think...

You think maybe the thief...

...is trying to harm me personally now?

Well, I assumed he was after

the paintings themselves.

I think it's enough.

Ready?

Good?

I have something you might be

interested in.

It's a DVD with all the hidden

surveillance cameras I have to my place.

It's plenty. I haven't

checked it out yet.

Maybe the thieves have been careless

enough to be photographed.

I doubt it, this level of thief,

but I'll take a look.

Yeah. You never know.

Okay. Well, merci.

Thank you, Mademoiselle Lahiri,

for everything.

Thank you. Goodbye. Goodbye.

Mademoiselle Lahiri.

Did you get the faxed copy

of the 1077? Good.

Here's what I need:

A dozen... Twelve uniformed officers.

Metal detectors, extra cameras.

So I'll e-mail you the photographs.

Do you happen to have a pen?

I'll just give you the names. Okay.

Livingston Dell, male, Caucasian,

5'6", 150 pounds.

Virgil Malloy, male, Caucasian,

5' 10", 160 pounds.

Robert Ryan, male, Caucasian...

- Hello?

- Buon giorno, Mr. Eisenhower.

This is your 5 a.m. wake-up call.

- Really?

- Yes, I'm afraid.

Have a nice day, sir.

- Hey.

- What are you doing?

- What...? Sleeping. Why are you dressed?

- It's 5:
30, day of. We gotta go. Let's go.

It's 11:
30.

The night before.

But...

Oh, he's mean.

He's just mean-spirited.

- How many espressos did you have?

- Five.

Yeah, come on.

I don't know if she's just confused...

...or she's really turned the corner

and hates me now.

You think I handled this wrong?

I was too forceful.

I was too American.

She's different.

Maybe you're right,

maybe she has moved on.

You know, I talked to a doctor

about getting that tattoo removed.
