What is the initial heist plan and who are the team members?
This episode of The Truth includes strong language. The Truth.
How long have we known each other?
Known each other?
Yeah, you and me. How long
have we... Well, we don't really know each other. I've never seen your face.
Okay, how long have we worked together? I
think 10
years. Almost 11, actually. Really? In a few
weeks. Is it okay for you to be talking, Cufflinks?
Yeah, it's just me and the jackpot.
Okay, 10 years go for almost 11. You think in that time I don't expect my people to ever have a bad day? Yes, I'm not one of those bosses who says your job should be like a family. Your family is your family. I do think that we are a team. And, you know, over the course of 11 years, every team has its rough spots.
Five years for me. Don't forget, I'm the apple-cheeked newbie.
Not now, spoof.
Was I interrupting? Hey, my bad. I just thought someone should jump in and say what the hell is going on. Just
give me a minute, okay?
Yeah, we're kind of short on minutes here. Is it the ducked gopher? Was it too narrow? I've had narrower. Oh, shit. Is there no interface port on the panel? Wait, is our intel bad? Oh, it's
there. I'm looking at it right now.
Does it look compatible with the worm?
Yeah, it looks like it'll slot right
in. Maestro, it's Footwork. I'm approaching the rear fence now.
Hold your position, Footwork. I'm handling something.
So, what's the problem? I'm too sad.
Uh, say again? Go for it. You're too sad? Is
this a pause, maestro?
Are we pausing the gig? Yeah, you can't really pause a heist. It's not like there's time out.
Nothing's pausing. We're taking the jackpot, we're getting out clean, and we're getting rich. Everyone stick to the plan.
What am I doing with my life? Years of quiet dissatisfaction have built to a breaking point. It's as if my body won't allow me to take one more step down a path I know is slowly killing me. But I can't control when I reach that point, or where I am, or what I might be right in the middle of doing.

All right, here we go. Okay, Footwork, you said you're at the rear fence.
Yes, I can see the patrol now.
Are your eyes on the rear terminal?
Affirmative. Just past the patrol.
And you are in possession of both Worm 2 and your mask for when you rendezvous with Cufflinks?
Confirming both Worm 2 and my mask.
Okay, Maestro. That's all great, but Worm 2 doesn't give me access to the alarms and sprinklers. That's all on Gopher.
Gopher's fine. Is
he?
I'm not. Okay, can everyone please just let me run this meeting? Cufflinks, are you still alone?
Yeah, just me and the clinic with the jackpot. Security's close, but not in the room.
And the jackpot, are they okay?
I mean, other than in captivity, yeah. I always give them a checkup before the mark plays with them. But my stroke, come on. If Gopher's having some kind of meltdown...
Nobody's having a meltdown. Stay focused. What's our timetable?
Okay. Someone will call the phone on the wall when the mark's ready for me to bring the jackpot to him, guessing in the next 10, 12 minutes. Then I put them in the carrier and... theoretically run them out the back door to footwork, but...
And you have your mask for that?
Yes, I have my mask, but if there's no distractions to cover my escape... You mean the monkeys, right? Sorry? By the jackpot, you mean the monkeys.
Gopher, I'm going to get right back to you. Just give me
a...
Technically,
they
aren't monkeys. They are primates, yes, but... That's exactly what you mean when you say the jackpot. You mean the two animals that we're stealing.
Yeah, Gopher, sometimes jackpot means multiple things like several jewels or many hundred dollar
bills. Oh my God, spoof not helping.
