One is young, tall, lanky, and unsure of himself. The other is older, darker, and more confident. "Are you sure this will work?" "Positive." "You've done this before?" "Oh yeah... plenty of times. It's pretty easy. If people knew how easy it really is, they'd be surprised." "So I just walk up and give her the note?" "No, remember what I said? You walk up, smile real nice, tilt your head a little, say 'Hi, how are you' or something, and then hand her the note." "And this'll work?" "Yes!" "What if she calls the cops or something?" "What? Why would she do that? You're not threatening her or anything." "Right, but... what if I freak her out?" "Trust me, you'll be the nervous one. She's probably had people do this before." "Yeah... still, I'm scared, man. What if she says no?" "How could she say no? You're nice, polite, handsome, and you're not playing games. Women dig honesty." "I dunno... I've never done this before." "Hey, I'll be out here watching you. If anything goes wrong, I'll bop in and get you out. Pass it off as a joke or something. 'Sorry, lady, my friend here hasn't quite recovered from that hit on the head last week.'" "Oh yeah, that's a good excuse. That'll work." "Better than just running out of the building, which is what you're thinking of doing, isn't it?" "Yeah... you're right." "Ok... take a few deep breaths. Relax. This'll be a cinch. If you pull this off... hey, who knows?" "You'll be looking out for me, right?" "Relax! God, you're uptight. Just relax, shake off the tension, take a few breaths, and go in there. I'll be in the car, gimme the keys. I'll buy you a beer after this." "Ok..." The young man hands him the keys, and as the dark man walks to the car, the young man takes a few deep breaths, shakes his hands, and smoothes his hair. He looks back at the dark man in the car, gives him a thumbs up, and walks into the bank.
