Odd spices that don't connect.

I don't know what I'm supposed to make.

We've all met up with friends after a work event and still had our work stuff with us.
Like a laptop, a suitcase full of comedy merch, or a FabergΓ© egg.
That's what happened to Rosie Dawson, who was entrusted to show the Faberge egg and matching watch to potential buyers by her employer, the Craft Whiskey Company.
When she was unable to sell the pieces, she did what anyone would do after a hard day at work.
She put the egg in her bag and went to the pub.
Enter Enzo Conticello, a run-of-the-mill pickpocket who noticed Dawson's $2,000 Givenchy handbag on the floor, so he stole it, like he was supposed to.
Because who puts a $2,000 bag with a FabergΓ© egg in it on the floor of a bar?
Now, what does a petty thief do with a FabergΓ© egg?
Well, he's a regular person who doesn't know what it is, so he traded the bag and everything in it for cocaine.
He didn't find out the value of his thievery was about $2.7 million until he was in court.
Do you know how much cocaine you can buy with $2.7 million?
