So now we have to break out of

the house we just broke into?

- I mean, if anything, it proves

that the pattern was right.

I just went in the wrong

direction with it, right?

If I reverse...

- no, don't touch it!

It's f***in' armed!

- I know, I'm going to unarm it!

- No, you're not, you're gonna

set it off,

and then the guard's gonna

be here in six seconds,

cops are gonna be

right behind him,

and then we're gonna be

stuck here with nowhere to go

because we're in the middle

of a giant gated,

fenced-in cage!

- Ok, yeah, it's not ideal,

but it's not a problem.

There's a code

and it's written down

somewhere in this house,

maybe on their computer,

in an email

from the security company

or somethin' like that.

We just take our time, find the

code while we rob the place,

and then skedaddle,

clean and easy.

- What about the

motion detectors?

- No motion detectors.

Good find!

- Huh?

- This place is swanky!

- It's ok.

- Ok, look at this!

- What is it?

- This is art, they have

art hanging on the walls.

That's some ritzy people sh*t!

We're gonna score

huge on this job.

- Uh, what are you doing?

- Stealing this,

it looks expensive.

- We're not gonna steal a bowl.

We need small things that

we can fit in our bags.

- Or in a pizza box, right?

We could put a painting in here.

Let's eat this fast so the

box doesn't get all sweaty.

Here.

- What the f***?

- What?

- You just ruined that rug,

look at that!

Show some respect!

- We are robbing this place.

- We don't have to rub their

faces in it!

I mean, sh*t!

That's a nice rug!

- Ok, I-i don't know, I'm sorry?

I don't know what's going on

right now.

Yeah, it's ruined.

Bingo!

- What? Office, where would you

keep a code?

- I don't know,

I don't have an office.

- Computer!

Oh, maybe it's in a

drawer or something.

- Hey, why don't we

just go out the window.

- No, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no!

Sensor, my sister has one of

these get ups at her house.

Try to smoke a little weed at

the end

of a stressful day

with the family,

suddenly, the whole damn

neighborhood's awake

and they have questions

about your life's decisions.

Oh!

- Where are you going?

11:
11. No, come on, we have

to find the.

- Hand me that phone.

- You can't just skip this one?

- It takes a minute.

It's 11:
11,

time for

the impossible question!

You guys know the deal,

but it's fun to say it!

$104,800, that's what

we're up to,

it's been 524 days since

a good soul has won.

Twice a day, every day at 11:11,

we pose the impossible question!

The generous folks

at black bear markets

add another hundred dollars

to the kitty.

Ya call with a correct answer

within 22 seconds, and you win
