They hide the artifact in Madame X's apartment.
paces back and forth We need a plan, Eclammo. The authorities won't stop until they find us. We have to stay one step ahead.

You're really bad at this whole "living a normal life" thing, aren't you?

The next day, the artifact is found in her apartment.
crosses arms How did they find it? There's no way we left it out in the open. Something doesn't add up.

Fine, but let's get one thing straight. I'm not really into pretending I'm married.

Alright, then let's see what you got.
