The two entered a small thrift store
With no cameras
It took a little while to find
She bought herself a big hat and oversized sunglasses
And a pantsuit from the 70s
She bought him a vintage fedora
And a three piece pinstriped suit
It's not perfect but...
Are you kidding?
I look smooth
The man twirls around for her
She laughs
Not too shabby Mr. Jones
...
We got lucky that that we found these name brand clothes in this good of condition
Whoo boy
You ain't lyin
They walked to the hotel she had mentioned off of 17th Street
Now
There's cameras over here and here
She points them out
She shows him the trail he has to take to stay in the blind spots
You are to go up to the front desk and ask for a room in the back on the ground floor for one week
He starts walking towards the parking lot
She grabs his arm
Not yet
We're going to need to walk around the block and then split up
We're already on camera
Where?
He looks around
Stop
She sounded serious
The gas station we just passed
The cafe across the street
And the pizza shop near the thrift store
But only after we came out
...
You're going to follow the blind spot and keep your face partially covered by your hat when you go up to the front desk
...
There's two trees in the very back that have twisted around each other
Out of view of the cameras
You can't miss it
You will meet me there and we'll go to the room together
...
Remember
Your name is Thomas Jones
You're here on vacation
Meeting with an old friend
...
Low-ball them when you bribe them to not take ID
You lost your ID and passport at the airport and are waiting for the authorities to contact you when they've found it
You really just want to relax and take a shower
Look rich and confident but also tired and annoyed
But don't give anyone any trouble
Act entitled like you've done this before
You're important and you not only enjoy your privacy you also aren't used to being told no
Is that all?
He was getting hard to read
She worried if he could pull it off
Yeah it's good to have a vague backstory in mind
Offer yourself flexibility and be prepared for follow up questions
Ok
He nodded
Let's do it then
