When am I going to get my purse back?

I mean, it's a small thing. I'd really like to have it back.

If I can.

Do you have anything else to say, young lady?

No.

I don't have a criminal record.

I don't.

This is like petty theft of weed.

It's not a big deal.

I've

been

taking this long.

Almost done.

You can't just lock me in here.

Nothing in here,

though.

So what's going on with my situation?

Am I getting like a ticket or something?

ID? Oh, yeah, I have one with me.

Is there something funny? Huh? No. Is there something funny?

No, I just, uh, nervous.

Should be.

Why?

I mean, I'm not a bad person.

I usually, that never happens, I can pay for it if you are willing to do that.

I don't want any trouble.

Alright, I'm sure it couldn't be that much.

I could pay you if you give me my purse back.

Can you at least consider it?

I can't believe this is happening to me right now.

Fuck.

I'm being a douchebag for like no fucking reason.

Like I'm not the first person who's done this so I don't know why he's phoning

out.

Hello? Hey, it's me.

I'm just at, um... The security guard basically took me in for, like,

taking a little thing, like a little piece of jewelry.

And now he won't let me go. No, lady.

Who are you talking to?

Just a friend.

I kind of got bored. Just a friend?

Yeah, I just kind of got bored for a little bit.

Who's John?

Um, he's a friend.

I don't know.

Yeah.

Stand up.

Okay.

Stand right there.

Face me.

Okay. Look to the right. Um.

Why do I have to take pictures, though?

Back. Face the wall.

Okay.

Face the wall, young lady. Okay, I just wanted to know what the pictures are

for.

For our records.

For anyone hot chocolate -y.

I mean, I won't do it again. It's not that big of a deal.

So we have you caught Well, we're unsure how many merchandise

you still have you sit right there

I found multiple things inside your purse.

And we don't think that's the only thing that's there, so we're going to have to

give you a strip search.

Is it really necessary? I mean, that's usually where people put the stuff, you

know? My clothes are kind of too tight to fit anything.

It's absolutely necessary.

Now, if you don't want to, I'm just going to call the cops.

No, no, no. No, please, sir. Please.

Please, I really don't want that on my record.

We can do the strips, it's totally fine.

I really don't want any trouble.

But as you can see, I don't have anything on me.

I didn't take anything. Pants?

There's nothing in my pocket.

No, take the pants off.

Okay.

See? There's nothing.

What? Take your shirt off.

Are you serious right now?

I could call the police.

No, no, no. They're gonna do it anyways.

Oh my god, okay.

There's no pockets.

We're not done.

Keep going.

Thanks for all.

So, I went through your phone.

Seems like you, uh, John is actually your boyfriend.

Oh.

Stand up.

Why?

I'm just going to take a couple pictures.

Why?

Move your hands away.

Move your hands away. That's right.

Turn around.

Okay.

I mean, why did you have to look through my phone? You

already know I didn't do anything else.

Can

I

just use my phone?

Absolutely not, young lady.

But why?

I'm not, like, trying to create, like, a huge, you know, thing where I'm, like,

calling my friends up to steal the store.

It's not that crazy.

You know those pictures?

I sent them to John.

Why?

You're being really weird.

Like, is this even legal?

You have no rights. You're a criminal.

Are you serious? It's not that bad. I can just pay a fine.

Jewelry.

$1 ,500 worth of jewelry that you took. The one...

And two little rings.

That's a felony, young lady. I didn't know it was worth that much.

What's your life worth to you, huh?

A lot.

You know this is a felony, right?

Are you going to school?

No.

They wouldn't accept you anyway for the criminal record, huh?

Okay.

a pretty girl like you steal a bunch of stuff, huh?

I don't know. My boyfriend can't afford it, so I get it myself.

This guy sounds like a real scary guy, huh?

Well, you didn't have to send him pictures of me.

I'm sure he has his own collection.

Yeah, he doesn't need more.

So do you like Joe? Is that where you're going?

I checked your record. You had a clean record.

Yeah. But now you fuck it up with all this, huh?

Yeah, I just, I'm sorry.

I didn't know.

I mean, I'm young. Why can't you give me a break here?

You are young, aren't you?

Yeah.

Your ID said you're 19.

Yeah, yeah.

Ready to go to college and everything.

I guess so.

Well, so let me tell you what's basically going to happen.

We're basically going to call the cops at this point.

They're going to take over the investigation.

And that's pretty much it.

We're going to call the cops?

You're going to call the cops, young lady.

Oh.

Is this funny? You making fun of my action here? No, I'm not. I just wasn't

what you were saying.

You know, I'm going to pack on a couple other charges because of that. No, come

on. $1 ,500?

You're right. Make it $3 ,000. It's like my first offense.

I don't think so.

You just said my record is clean.

I was just saying that to you.

I really don't have anything else. I'm going to tell the cops you stole

everything. Everything.

No, why would you do that? That's not fair.

You have no respect for the law, young lady.

I do. I just wasn't understanding what you were saying, so I got confused.

Well, you know, this is a minimum of five years.

Not in a federal, but in a county.

The worst.

You ever been to county jail?

No. You think they're going to do it with a little pretty girl like you?

I don't know.

Well, I can't tell you. They're going to love you in there. I'll tell you that

much.

You don't have to.

All right.

I don't have to.

What do you want?

I can be an option here.

I'll make you a little deal, okay?

Give me this hand.

Mm -hmm.

Here you go.

Why don't you let me make a trade?

You help me out.

Then you don't go to jail.

But, like, how can I know I can trust you?

Part of the deal, you're not in a position to have trust.

This is your choices.

Oh, my God.

I'm pretty good at keeping promises.

Are you sure?

Are you going to have to?

Just like that.

Do you have a deal?

Yeah. You help me out.

I'll let you go.

Okay.

That's right.

Just like that.

You're gonna have to try harder than that. Okay.

There we go.

There we go.

Back and forth.

There we go. Just like that.

That's what you need to do to stay out of jail.

That's the enthusiasm I want.

There we go.

Very enthusiastic.

There we go.

Okay, stand up.

Stand up.

Take your clothes off.

Take your pants off.

There we go.

There we go. That's why I want you.

That's right.

That's right.

It's part of the deal.

Okay. Isn't it?

Yeah, I guess.

Open your legs.

Just like that.

Just like that.

Oh my god.

Um. Uh.

Can we just... Oh, it's John.

John,

is this John?

Yeah, hello?

Hey, John, I have something for you to listen to.

Can you call later? I'll explain everything.

You... You hang up.

I want him to listen.

Maybe just hang up.

What's going on over there? I can explain later.

I'm sorry.

What's going on? Are you okay?

Our Lady.

I think it's sad here.

That's a good girl.

Oh my

god.

That's right.

Put your legs up on me.

Oh my god. I'm scared.

Oh my god.

There we go.

Rest right on that.

a couple of pictures to John.

So I hope you can enjoy explaining that to him.

You want me off the hook, though?

I think so.

There's no smiling matter.

Okay. He's still in trouble.

Okay. I don't want you seeing my store ever again.

Okay? Now,

get Rift.

I'll be back here in five minutes, and I'll lead you out the store.

Can I have my phone back?
