Thief goes to the Pawn Shop District... | |
Thief | Hmm... |
Inside | |
Pawnbroker 1 | Hello, good sir. How can I help you today? |
Thief | Priceless riches for sale. |
Pawnbroker 1 | Hm, priceless eh? How about half-priceless instead? You can only sell it for half its actual value. Regulations, y'know. |
Thief | Oh that's fine. Just credit it to my massive overseas bank account. |
Pawnbroker 1 | Not a problem. Is there anything else we can do for you today? |
Thief | Yes. I would like to purchase the smallest, most insignificant, hard to find item located somewhere in your backroom. Preferably under a heavy appliance or suit of armor. |
Pawnbroker 1 | Sure. It'll take me a while though. |
Thief | Oh take your time... please. |
Three minutes later... | |
Thief leaves with all the hangings from the wall removed. | |
Pawnbroker 1 | I found a dented bottle... cap?
Where'd that thief go? And on another topic altogether, where's my stuff? |
Cut to Thief outside, with a money bag almost twice the size of him. | |
Inside the No Questions shop... | |
Pawnbroker 2 | OK, so that's a bag stuffed with royal Cornerian priceless riches, a larger bag stuffed with the entire inventory of my competition, and the deeds to his store, home, and parents' house. |
Thief | Yeah, just credit it to my ever-increasingly massive overseas account.
Suckers! |
