Why would you do that? Who would do that? That's so rude.

No, same. Actually, so true. I need to know how different the fake is from the real. Because if it's a pretty close replica, if it's like, what, that Walmart Birkin that everyone's talking about... Then I'm kind of just like, okay, they tried. But if it's just an immediate fake, like the Birkins in Canal Street, then perhaps I have questions. And have we found out who it was?

Like, these are things we need to know. Your mother needs to go investigation mode. She needs to be requesting the tapes. She needs to be running back to that security footage.
