"Anyway, whatever happened, I posed the question, 'If they already had both keys, why didn’t they just go to the vault and take the thing they originally wanted?' Because they had both keys, because they switched the things around. The answer was a very prolonged silence until someone was like, 'Uh huh. Yes.'"
