Foolproof Page #2

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

- Oh, would you look...

- That's across the street.

- That would explain it, wouldn't it?

Sorry to take up yourtime...

I had some pints for breakfast...

Be lucky to find my way home.

Thank you.

Sorry about that.

It's a new camera.

Oops, ha-ha. Sorry about that.

Oi, there's a chairthere.

Oh, looks like a nice set of

hex-head screws there, Rob,

you dingo's anus.

- Hello?

- Hey, Sam, guess what?

We're foolproof.

- Sh*t, Kev, you won't like this.

- What's up?

- I was robbed.

- What? Are you all right?

- I'm fine.

Its just...

they broke into my place.

- Gee, Sam, I'm sorry.

Well, as long as you're all right.

- Kevin...

they took the envelope.

- The envelope?

So, that's all they took?

The laptop and the plans?

- And my gym bag, but the plans

were in my gym bag.

- Sam! You left the plans

in the gym bag?

- Probably took it

to carry the computer.

- How did they get in?

- Kicked the door.

- Smash and grab.

- Amateurs.

- Even so, they still got our plans.

- They won't contact the police.

It's just paperwork.

- It's kind of specific paperwork.

- What if they decided...

to give it a crack?

- Ha, boost the jeweller?

- Whoa, whoa, ha-ha.

We're talking about a bunch

of amateurs here, OK? Punks.

Our plan has lock-picking,

circuitry, chemistry,

not to mention some pretty

high-end hardware

to burn through that safe.

No, no, no, that's not going

to happen.

- Yeah, well, still?

It looked like

a pretty good plan.

- Pretty good? It's foolproof.

- Hell, yeah.

One minute. Make it fast

and simple, then we got to go.

- Yeah, and try

and sound pleasant.

- Mr. Hamish, please.

- Who may I say is calling?

- It's Helen Calling.

Helen Hayes.

- Hello?

- You need to listen carefully.

This is very important.

My friends and I, uh...

Actually, you know, you might

kind of find this funny...

We play this game

where we figure out how to hack

through people's security...

we'd never do it.

It's more of an academic

exercise, really.

Last month, we figured out how

to break into your business.

- What?

- And now we sort of lost

the plans.

No, this is not a crank call!

I am serious.

Call Z-Ron Security.

Get them to install

a new alarm system.

Change the front door lock.

Maybe the safe.

Tell that fat guard

to poo faster.

Tell that fat guard

to poo faster? What was that?

Shut up!

Who says "poo"?

What are you, eight?

To give in

Like you fight in a fight

But you know

You can't win

Don't you know you've got to

Stand up, shake it off

Look them in the eye

you can never

Get another chance

to make things right

No passing by

It felt like you never said

all the things you want to say

This is your chance
