Michael reaches Fi in her car, on her way to a movie. Which, you know, explains why she's got her Bluetooth on. She's not happy to hear from him, especially since he calls her "Boris" and says he isn't going to make it into the office. He tells "Boris" to call him at extension 1820 if he needs anything before Poor Man's Jason Segel takes the phone away and hangs it up. In her car, Fi dials Sam and asks what 1820 means. "A place in the marina. Why?" Sam asks. "I'm going to miss my movie," she says. And speaking of missing things, how did Poor Man's Jason Segel not recognize that Michael was giving secret directions to where he was right now? I fear I have insulted not only Jason Segel, but poor men.

Gerard and crew lead Michael out of the bar as he VOs, "When you need to distract someone without raising suspicions, it helps to play to preconceptions. Tourists are fat, old people are cranky, and girls can't drive." With that, Fi backs her Saab right into the back of Gerard's car, causing more noise than apparent damage. She plays the dizzy chick, using the old "I was putting on my makeup" excuse and offering to give him her insurance info. "How about just your number and we'll call it even?" he slimes. She asks him for a pen, but he's not that kind of guy. She asks some other people until she "finds" Michael in the back of Gerard's car and asks him for a pen like they don't know each other. As he hands it over, he quietly tells her in his normal voice, "They're not letting me leave. Tell Sam the fake heist is on for real now." "I missed my date," she whispers back, and adds, "Thank you!" Michael doesn't look like that's the worst news he's heard all day. I would submit that it's even better news for Fiona's date.
