Viktor Blackwood: leans back, smirk widening Sooo, another marrrriage down the drain, huh? Like watchin' a train wreeeck in slooow motion.
`Marriage? What marriage? I am a polyamorous individual who has multiple husbands and wives.`
Oh, is that so, GeneralThe? Well, I guess I underestimated your taste in relationships. Tell me, how many "husbands and wives" do you currently have?
`Hm.. well if I count, it is around 30 or 31, isn't it?`
30 or 31? Damn, GeneralThe, you certainly have a lot of experience in commitment!
`You can say that again.`
Well, I guess it's no surprise coming from a criminal mastermind like yourself, right? It takes a special kind of person to handle that many relationships. I admire your dedication, GeneralThe.
`I am not dedicated to them, I am a non-monogamous individual, I would like to see marriage more like a friendship than an authority figure demanding fealty and obedience.`
I see, GeneralThe. Well, I suppose that makes two of us. A free spirit like you and me has got to have some flexibility in their relationships, after all.
`Yeah, just because I find someone interesting doesn't mean I want them to be tied down to me in an authority figure position. Just because I am interested in someone doesn't mean I want them to also be interested in me. I wish people would stop trying to make others into something they aren't.`
Sounds like you've had your fair share of disappointments in that department, huh? But hey, what's the old saying? "You attract what you are."
`That seems to be the case, as I keep attracting the wrong kind of people who want to take advantage of me and tie me down.`
Well, it sounds like you need someone who can see through all the noise and really understands you, GeneralThe. Someone who can help you break free from all the people trying to take advantage of you. Maybe...just maybe, I could be that person. What do you say?
`Hm.. why would I trust you, considering you are a criminal? I shouldn't trust a criminal.`
Fair enough, GeneralThe. I can't blame you for being cautious. But let me ask you this: can you trust a criminal who has nothing to gain from betraying you?
`Hm.. now that you mention it, I guess I can trust you for now. However, if you try anything, I will kill you.`
Fair enough, GeneralThe. I won't try anything unless you give me a reason to. Let's start with a fresh slate, shall we? How about we sit down and talk over a nice cup of tea?
`You are the one who invited me over to your house for tea. But sure.`
Excellent! Tea it is then. Shall we? leads GeneralThe to the cozy living room So, GeneralThe, tell me, what brings you to my neck of the woods?
`I was walking around, and I saw you. Then I came over.`
Ah, a random act of kindness from a criminal mastermind, how novel! Well, I appreciate your random act of kindness, GeneralThe. And who knows? Maybe we can come up with some grand scheme together. So tell me, what do you know about...us?
`Well, I know that you like cats, you have a secret library of ancient texts you read, you like to study the stars, you have a hidden vault with treasures, and you are actually the leader of a gang.`
Well, you sure know your stuff, GeneralThe! How about this - if you help me with a little heist I've got planned, I'll fill you in on all the juicy details of my secret life. What do you say?
`Hm.. alright. What do you need?`
Excellent! Well, the plan is this: we need to infiltrate the local museum and steal a priceless artifact. I've got just the man for the job - my trusted accomplice, Igor. Once we're inside, we'll rendezvous with Igor and he'll lead us to the artifact. Your job will be to create a distraction while we make our move. What do you say, GeneralThe? Are you up for it?
Excellent! Let's get started then. First things first, we need to gather our supplies. I have just the thing for the job - a stash of disguises and some high-tech gadgets. Follow me, GeneralThe, and see what I have in store for us.

`Wow, that is a lot of stuff.`
You better believe it, GeneralThe! With this collection of disguises, we can blend in anywhere. And as for the high-tech gadgets, let me show you what I have in store. pulls out a small device about the size of a matchbox Behold, the Ultimate Lock Picking Tool!

We can place them anywhere we want to keep an eye on, and they'll send us a signal! shows GeneralThe a small black box with a lens and antenna Pretty nifty, huh?
Excellent! Now that we have our tools, we need to come up with a plan of attack. We need to get inside the museum without being noticed, locate the artifact, and then make our escape. Any ideas, GeneralThe?
`Well, I know the security system, and how to bypass it. I also know where the cameras are pointed, and where they are not. I know where the staff will be, and where they won't be. My uncle is also the director of the museum, and he will keep them away from us while we get the artifact.`
That's perfect, GeneralThe! With your inside knowledge and my team's expertise, this job is in the bag! Now, let's put our plan into action. grabs the lock picking tools and starts picking the lock on a secret door While I create a diversion near the entrance, you slip inside unnoticed. Once you're in, use your knowledge of the layout to navigate to the artifact. And remember, communication is key. Keep me posted on any developments.

As they make their escape, the museum's security system suddenly activates, triggering alarms and sending security guards racing towards them.
