Pod Insights Hamish & Andy 2025 Ep 320 - Burg Boys! About this episode Hamish, Andy and Jack head to Mildura to test the security of small business accounting firm DHM Partners. With months of planning and full approval from boss Rob, the boys attempt a grand theft auto–style art heist: steal the company Suzuki Swift and nab a stairwell painting without being detected. Expect questionable disguises, bold plans, and the chaos only the trio can deliver. This is BURG BOYS!
Transcript 0:02 Speaker 00 A Listener Production.
0:07 Speaker 01 Activate your internet because the Hamish and Andy podcast starts in three... two...
0:17 Speaker 01 Sorry, still buffering. One.
0:24 Speaker 01 Crime. A hell of a business and not for the faint-hearted. Yet the one area Hamish and Andy have rarely ventured. But all that changed months ago when Hamish saw an old film called Sneakers that we don't in any way expect you to have seen. But the gist is that a crew of professionals are hired by businesses to break into their own places of work to test their security. So Hamish and Andy put out a call.
0:53 Speaker 02 This is our plan to test small business security somewhere.
0:56 Speaker 01 Which boss out there would secretly nominate their workplace to be burgled without telling their employees?
1:03 Speaker 02 We'll go and rob them and it's all a simulation.
1:06 Speaker 01 Thousands applied. From the pile, D H M Partners, an accounting firm in Mildura, was selected. The boss ironically named Rob. The target not client information, but something perhaps even more valuable. The company Suzuki Swift and a painting from the stairwell.
1:28 Speaker 02 Grand theft auto and an art house.
1:30 Speaker 03 I like that.
1:32 Speaker 01 Nothing could be discussed publicly by Hamish, Andy and Jack for fear of a tip-off to the staff. But months ago, the planning began.
1:42 Speaker 02 Welcome, burg boys. Any of you followed your way here? Well, it doesn't matter because we're recording this in front of signs that say burg bunker.
1:49 Speaker 01 Then there were a few months of miscommunications and a few misunderstandings.
1:54 Speaker 02 Wasn't someone going to get us the information like blueprints? Where the keys are, the schematics.
1:59 Speaker 03 You were in charge of building.
2:00 Speaker 02 I said that.
2:01 Speaker 03 You said, you said, you said, you definitely said blueprint.
2:03 Speaker 02 Why would I say that?
2:04 Speaker 03 Well, that's what I was surprised.
2:05 Speaker 02 How would I get blueprints?
2:06 Speaker 03 I was surprised as well.
2:08 Speaker 01 Some mishaps.
2:10 Speaker 02 Was that a shiver of excitement or you do need to do a week?
2:14 Speaker 01 And a few other things that got in the way for a bit.
2:17 Speaker 02 I would like to be an old man.
2:19 Speaker 04 I think we don't need it. I don't think we need it either.
2:22 Speaker 02 Then may God have mercy on you all.
2:25 Speaker 01 But then, a plan was formed. They would fly to Mildura, buy all the necessary equipment to pretend to be from a gas company, hire a van with yellow lights, make a fake business, get an old man mask, seal up the office building before the workers got there, then convince whoever arrived first to let them in so they could steal the painting and hopefully find the Suzuki keys.
2:52 Speaker 02 Just commence operation. That's what we say.
2:54 Speaker 04 I know, but then you go off and do nothing. You go off and play golf.
2:58 Speaker 02 No, I'm the one that bought the job. I bought the job to the crew.
3:02 Speaker 04 Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, I'll get on.
3:04 Speaker 01 Sounds easy enough, but in the heist game, things rarely go to plan. It's time to find out what happened during their fateful burglary attempt for the special final episode for 2025. This is Burg Boys.
3:27 Speaker 02 Burg Boys, Burg Boys, what you gonna do? What you gonna do when we steal from you?
3:35 Speaker 05 We join the boys in the Mildura motel burg bunker. Hamish has just arrived and Jack is off shaving his beard into a moustache to help conceal his identity.
3:48 Speaker 02 Can I open this or not?
3:49 Speaker 04 What is it?
3:50 Speaker 02 Just chocolate. Just a chocolate bar I got from the minibar.
3:52 Speaker 04 Yeah, yeah.
3:55 Speaker 02 Time is 21:22. Do you want to do 24 hour clock or just?
4:01 Speaker 04 It's night.
4:01 Speaker 02 Yeah, well, in 12 hours, we'll be speeding down the highway on a Suzuki Swift, so.
4:07 Speaker 04 With as much chocolate as we can get.
4:09 Speaker 02 We'll never need to bother about the clock again.
4:12 Speaker 04 Um, to paint the picture for from, we're in hotel motel.
4:15 Speaker 02 We've got all the gear.
4:17 Speaker 04 How are you feeling? Because I heard from Darcy before Jack arrives. I heard from Darcy that he's absolutely shitting himself.
4:23 Speaker 02 Jack?
4:23 Speaker 04 Yeah.
4:23 Speaker 02 No surprises.
4:24 Speaker 04 And he's been practicing with Darcy, like role play. Is that true, Darcy?
4:28 Speaker 02 True. No surprises. Think about Back to the Cool Boys and the front man, everything. What do we know from Jack? He's not a big game player.
4:35 Speaker 04 All my point is, is when he gets here.
4:38 Speaker 02 Big him up. We have to.
4:40 Speaker 04 I think so.
4:40 Speaker 02 Oh, we gotta, we have to.
4:41 Speaker 04 Or do we want to change the plan?
4:42 Speaker 02 No, I like to think of us as a loving, cohesive crime gang.
4:47 Speaker 04 Same. But I'd like us to be in charge of specific things. So if things do go awry.
4:51 Speaker 02 We know who's at fault. Oh yeah, that's our favourite thing.
4:53 Speaker 04 Okay, great.
4:56 Speaker 02 Is that Jack?
4:57 Speaker 04 It's Jack.
4:58 Speaker 03 Do you recognise me?
5:00 Speaker 02 That's not enough. It still looks like you've got a beard from the front.
5:03 Speaker 03 No, it's a handlebar moustache.
5:05 Speaker 02 No, it's not.
5:06 Speaker 03 Yes, it is. This is what we talked about me.
5:08 Speaker 04 Why did we go with handlebar?
5:10 Speaker 03 As a disguise.
5:11 Speaker 04 I know, but why handlebar?
5:15 Speaker 03 I actually thought I looked very different and I'm wearing my wife's glasses. You didn't mention that.
5:20 Speaker 02 We know it's you. We know it's you. We know it's you.
5:23 Speaker 03 I know, but you were expecting me.
5:26 Speaker 02 I think you said it's Jack.
5:29 Speaker 04 I think, I think you were saying, I think even if, even if we'd seen you in the street, we still would have recognised you, but.
5:36 Speaker 03 Yeah, but you're a close friend.
5:38 Speaker 02 I guess now on the side, it's a bit different. Can you lose this though?
5:41 Speaker 04 Why is the handlebar necessary?
5:42 Speaker 03 I didn't even want to do this. You guys told me to do this last time we had a meeting.
5:47 Speaker 02 Put it back on. Put the beard back on.
5:49 Speaker 03 I would have, I would have loved to not shave this. And this is complete opposite to what I thought I'd walk into, which is like, this guy is ready to roll for a county firm.
5:59 Speaker 04 It looks like chocolate syrup has gone.
6:03 Speaker 02 It's not big enough, Jack. It's too blonde.
6:05 Speaker 03 What if I, like, could be run mascara through it or something so it gets thicker?
6:10 Speaker 02 Why don't we do it? Why don't we get an eyeliner and do a scar on your cheek? And say you're a pirate gas worker?
6:17 Speaker 02 It's on a year eight Halloween costume.
6:19 Speaker 03 I was following an instruction.
6:20 Speaker 04 Hey, remember what we talked about?
6:22 Speaker 02 Oh yeah, it looks great.
6:26 Speaker 03 So should I shave the whole thing off?
6:27 Speaker 02 Sorry, old habits. Should I shave the whole thing off by morning? I'm worried if you just keep them as such, the handlebar has the most brown of any beard. We can't just keep the handles. I was wondering if for the first time ever, we just have brackets, mouth brackets.
6:45 Speaker 04 Again.
6:45 Speaker 02 So everything he says is like, I shouldn't be telling you this. Everything Jack says is an aside because he's got mouth brackets. That makes you stand out more.
6:53 Speaker 04 That's exactly my point. It makes you stand out more. Okay.
6:55 Speaker 02 When the police come, can you describe the guys?
6:58 Speaker 04 Guys.
6:58 Speaker 02 I can definitely describe one of them. He had mouth brackets. I've never seen those before.
7:03 Speaker 05 But the Burg Boys couldn't spend all night on Jack's moustache. They actually needed to finalize the plan.
7:11 Speaker 04 I got the blueprint.
7:12 Speaker 02 Wow. That was Hamish's job?
7:15 Speaker 04 No, remember he passed it back to me?
7:17 Speaker 02 Bringing boots was my job and I remembered them. And the old man outfit.
7:21 Speaker 04 So there's a couple of things that I want to discuss.
7:24 Speaker 02 Where'd you get these?
7:25 Speaker 04 I'm not allowed to say.
7:28 Speaker 04 Here is one of our first problems. There's three entrances.
7:32 Speaker 02 Do we have tape?
7:33 Speaker 04 Yes. So.
7:35 Speaker 02 Can't we just heavily tape them, don't we, and say, go around to the front?
7:38 Speaker 04 So here's where I think we've got three really strong bollards. Have a look at this.
7:43 Speaker 02 Yeah. Those are great.
7:44 Speaker 04 They're kind of spanned over, over a metre, kind of out to two metres.
7:49 Speaker 02 For people listening, it's a very good concertina bollard.
7:52 Speaker 04 Yeah. I think we put one over each.
7:55 Speaker 02 Of the other doors?
7:56 Speaker 04 Each door. I think one over each.
7:57 Speaker 02 Yeah, which door are we going in?
8:00 Speaker 04 We want to try, and what we would like, Jacko, is for you to get us entry to the front door.
8:06 Speaker 02 Getting us entry to the front, but keeping people away from peeking in because my hunch, because it's my job to get the keys to the Suzuki, is basically my tactic is just going to be rummaging.
8:16 Speaker 04 So on that ham, I've got a, I thought I had a solution. I've packed two white sheets from the beds at the motel here.
8:24 Speaker 02 To steal the painting?
8:25 Speaker 04 No, I think we go in.
8:26 Speaker 02 Just put them up over the door?
8:27 Speaker 04 And I think we put them up over the door as if they're sheets we use to like.
8:30 Speaker 02 Protect gas.
8:32 Speaker 04 Protect from the gas.
8:34 Speaker 02 But people can't see us do our gas work. Yeah, why not?
8:36 Speaker 04 Why not? Because otherwise that is really see-through there. And if people mill.
8:40 Speaker 02 That's my worry. They're going to see all the rummaging.
8:42 Speaker 04 Here's the other problem. The painting's there. They'll be a C S T.
8:46 Speaker 03 So yeah, any people, essentially what Andy's saying is any people at the front of the building will be able to see easily through the windows.
8:52 Speaker 02 You're gonna have to be projecting a big air of confidence. You happy with that?
8:56 Speaker 03 Yes. Can we go back to like before even in the building? Cause I think we should talk about that more because we're just all assuming like we get in the building. But to me, that's kind of the hardest part.
9:06 Speaker 02 The biggest part of this house is getting in the building. I think we have to get there early enough that we've barricaded all the.
9:11 Speaker 04 So Jack, before we get to that stage, let me show you what we've got. Decals for the truck.
9:16 Speaker 03 That's good.
9:17 Speaker 04 We've got laminated signs. We'll put them up on each major door. They read, do not enter gas leak with our fake brand that you created, Jack. Well done. That was your homework. Did you use chat G P T?
9:27 Speaker 03 Yes, yes.
9:30 Speaker 02 Extensively, 100%.
9:32 Speaker 04 A G A, Safe Energy. What does A G A stand for? Just in case you quiz.
9:35 Speaker 03 Australian Gas Authorities.
9:39 Speaker 04 More confidently.
9:40 Speaker 02 Authorities. How many are there?
9:43 Speaker 03 Australian Gas Authority. Perfect.
9:46 Speaker 02 Ironically, said with no authority.
9:49 Speaker 04 This building has been sealed as a precaution. Our technicians require access to the building on arrival. Please call a 1-800 number. That is a 1-800 number we've bought that is now linked to my phone. So if anyone calls the number, it will go to my phone.
10:02 Speaker 03 So you're gonna be the operator as well as infiltrating the building?
10:06 Speaker 04 I was thinking of being the operator. How do you guys feel about that?
10:09 Speaker 02 Sure. I mean, do the paperwork.
10:11 Speaker 03 But like, yeah, okay. So.
10:13 Speaker 02 What voice are you gonna use?
10:15 Speaker 03 Ring.
10:16 Speaker 04 Hello, Daryl here. A G A. It stands for Australian Gas Authority. Safe Energy.
10:22 Speaker 02 Authority or authorities? Cause the guy at the front door just said tees.
10:25 Speaker 04 Authority. He doesn't know what he's doing.
10:27 Speaker 02 What's with his mustache?
10:32 Speaker 04 I think this is a safeguard. What I would prefer is Jack to intercept them.
10:36 Speaker 02 Yeah, I'd like us to. Here's my, here's my way of thinking because back to Jack's point of gaining access to the building.
10:42 Speaker 03 Yes.
10:42 Speaker 02 The building's obviously gonna be alarmed. Like, you know, the last person out at night sets the building alarm.
10:46 Speaker 03 Yes.
10:47 Speaker 02 So we can't smash a window and just get in the side. Just assuming that the first person on site is the person that opens it up.
10:54 Speaker 03 Yep.
10:54 Speaker 02 Is the building alarmed? Can you take us in? We will try not to be longer than 20 minutes. Just wait outside. Can you let everyone know? You're gonna have to be doing that. Ideally, I reckon we'll be in the truck.
11:05 Speaker 03 Yes, you guys hired, and as the least identifiable person of the three of us, ideally, they walk up to the door, they're reading the sign, I jump out of the van and go, "Hey ho."
11:20 Speaker 02 Well, no, not ideally. That's not the ideal.
11:26 Speaker 04 Yes, yes, I know what you mean.
11:28 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah.
11:29 Speaker 02 And you've got all night to work on how you're gonna get their attention.
11:32 Speaker 04 Now, I heard you've been practising.
11:35 Speaker 03 Well.
11:35 Speaker 04 Your approach.
11:36 Speaker 03 Yes. I've got some things to say if, so I'll go like, "Hello."
11:42 Speaker 02 Yes, because we're in Australia and that's a very commonly understood greeting. So that's great.
11:48 Speaker 04 Yeah, that's a good start.
11:49 Speaker 02 What other phrases have you learnt?
11:53 Speaker 03 Alright, look.
11:57 Speaker 04 Remember what we talked about?
11:58 Speaker 02 It's good.
11:59 Speaker 03 Okay. I am not really a good person for this job, right?
12:06 Speaker 02 Classic night before, high staccatos.
12:10 Speaker 04 You'll be great.
12:10 Speaker 03 So you see someone. But I'll go, "I see you've read the sign."
12:13 Speaker 04 Yeah.
12:16 Speaker 03 This is just a usual thing that happens.
12:20 Speaker 03 I can see, I can see him giggling. Can you tell him to stop?
12:23 Speaker 04 Please, can you stop giggling?
12:27 Speaker 04 Okay, he's stopping giggling, you can continue.
12:29 Speaker 03 Yeah.
12:30 Speaker 04 I don't think you should say, "This is a usual thing that happens," just so you know. If you have been practising this all day.
12:35 Speaker 03 Oh no, sorry, yeah, no, usual for us, like, hey, we come out to the...
12:43 Speaker 03 Like, isn't our job that we come and fix these leaks all the time? Yeah, so to me, this is normal.
12:49 Speaker 04 But again, I don't think you need to tell them all of this.
12:52 Speaker 02 Tell them what your voice is like.
12:53 Speaker 04 You're gonna say, "Oh, hey, I'm glad you're here." Well, sorry, do what you're gonna do.
12:57 Speaker 03 So I'll say, "I'm glad you're here. Are you about to gain access to the building? Don't go in there yet. We're not sure 100%, but our system has flagged this building as possibly having a gas leak. Are you able to let me in? We've got some technicians here who can check it out."
13:13 Speaker 04 I reckon so much of this is about not the specifics, but about confidence.
13:16 Speaker 03 Yeah, great.
13:19 Speaker 02 How early are we getting there?
13:21 Speaker 04 Five.
13:22 Speaker 02 AM.
13:23 Speaker 04 What do you think? Someone could start at six.
13:26 Speaker 02 At an insur- a accounting firm? Isn't it nine o'clock start?
13:29 Speaker 04 Some people like getting in early so they can nick off early.
13:32 Speaker 02 Five o'clock?
13:33 Speaker 04 Well, I don't think any- I don't thi- I don't think they're getting in early.
13:36 Speaker 02 It's an office. Man, I didn't come all the way to Madrid to get up at 4.30 in the morning.
13:41 Speaker 04 I think we have to.
13:42 Speaker 03 But wait, he's right. What if we're there for four hours before any action?
13:45 Speaker 02 Oh mate.
13:45 Speaker 04 But what if we're there before any action? The whole thing relies on no one being in.
13:50 Speaker 03 He's actually right about if we get there and there's two people in there already.
13:53 Speaker 02 Yeah mate, but this is like when my grandparents used to fly international with the airport six hours early.
14:00 Speaker 04 I'm happy to adjust. I just think some people get to work at six.
14:04 Speaker 02 People do that.
14:05 Speaker 04 Yeah, well, I mean, all I'm saying is we are open to that.
14:08 Speaker 02 All right, just to start it on the record that I think we could have one extra hour of sleep at least. Then we're allotting, but let's do baker's hours just in case someone's training for a half marathon or something and they they like to leave it to us.
14:22 Speaker 03 Well, worst case, like say someone's in the building. Can't we just knock on the door and go, this is not right? No, sorry, there's a gas leak.
14:32 Speaker 04 We could, we could.
14:34 Speaker 02 Okay, let's get there early. We can't. Because if we get there late, Jack is gonna have to evacuate the building.
14:40 Speaker 04 All the props we've bought are more effective when you arrive and go, oh my God, something serious is happening. Opposed to.
14:49 Speaker 02 Get out and then we can show you all the props.
14:51 Speaker 04 Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
14:53 Speaker 02 This is usual for us.
14:58 Speaker 02 All right.
14:59 Speaker 04 I'm open to.
14:59 Speaker 02 Wow, what an early wake up. What have we got for breakfast stuff?
15:02 Speaker 04 We don't have any.
15:03 Speaker 02 We don't even have any breakfast. No pre robbery breakfast.
15:07 Speaker 04 Well, I mean, a hotel breakfast doesn't open till after six.
15:10 Speaker 02 I was just asking for some muesli or something. Do we get any of that today?
15:12 Speaker 04 No, got all the props.
15:15 Speaker 02 Mate, the only thing to eat in these rooms is the chocolate bar, which I've already eaten.
15:18 Speaker 04 I think.
15:19 Speaker 02 We will be hungry.
15:20 Speaker 04 Look, once.
15:21 Speaker 02 We will be so hungry.
15:21 Speaker 04 What we could do is set up all of this.
15:24 Speaker 02 Let's go to Macca's.
15:25 Speaker 04 And then go to Macca's. We leave Jack there.
15:28 Speaker 02 Oh, okay, but you'll bring me back something.
15:31 Speaker 04 Yeah, yeah.
15:35 Speaker 05 With the all-important breakfast plan sorted, it was time to talk disguises for Hamish and Andy.
15:42 Speaker 04 We've got our white outfits.
15:46 Speaker 04 We've got our gas masks. We've got our hats. I've got your old man outfit. Why do you need it?
15:52 Speaker 02 Well, I have a better old man outfit than that. That's just a wig and some pants.
15:56 Speaker 04 Okay, what have you bought?
15:58 Speaker 02 Full prosthetic head.
15:59 Speaker 04 Right, but why do you need it?
16:04 Speaker 02 Don't you think it would be a way bigger effect? If they were like, wait a second, that old man?
16:11 Speaker 04 What?
16:14 Speaker 04 They haven't met the old man yet.
16:15 Speaker 02 So the old man, he comes, he's inside. After we've rummaged, we've got the keys, we've got the painting. I change into the old man outfit. Then I come out the back. That way, no one's going, oh, that's the guys in the white suit. Like, it's not drawing any suspicion. I'm coming out.
16:29 Speaker 04 He's not drawing suspicion? Just because it's not the guys in the white suit, it's an old man stealing our car?
16:36 Speaker 02 I've put a lot of effort into this old man outfit. I can be an old man in the suit.
16:43 Speaker 04 Don't think that helps.
16:45 Speaker 02 It's a very, very old man.
16:48 Speaker 04 I guess it helps you not look like Hamish Blake in television.
16:51 Speaker 02 I could be a very, very old man.
16:53 Speaker 04 No, I think there is some sense to like, if you see an old man in the Suzuki Swift opposed to one of the guys in the white outfit.
17:02 Speaker 02 Yeah, he's just an old man. He's harmless. It's a harmless.
17:04 Speaker 04 But he's driving our car. That makes no sense.
17:07 Speaker 02 He must be Rob's dad.
17:09 Speaker 04 Yeah, that's what I think. I think there's more sense to that than if he's in one of the white suits. Just.
17:19 Speaker 05 But to fully sign off on the old man plan, Hamish went and got changed into the very expensive latex prosthetic mask to see if Andy and Jack approved.
17:33 Speaker 02 Don't mind me. Gus man. This is fucking good. This is so good and I should wear it.
17:41 Speaker 03 It's like comedy old man. What the hell dude?
17:44 Speaker 02 Gus man.
17:45 Speaker 03 It's almost Halloween here.
17:46 Speaker 04 Yeah, it is. It's like Freddy Krueger.
17:48 Speaker 02 If he's walking and I'm just shuffling behind.
17:50 Speaker 03 No.
17:50 Speaker 02 No one's thinking this is Hamish and Andy. No one.
17:53 Speaker 03 You look like a movie villain.
17:56 Speaker 04 Yeah, it does look like a Halloween costume, like Freddy Krueger.
17:59 Speaker 02 Yeah, you're examining it too. People are just gonna glance at it.
18:02 Speaker 03 Especially not with a baseball cap on. It just looks so wrong.
18:06 Speaker 02 Well, I actually think a lot of this is about confidence and this makes me confident.
18:10 Speaker 03 It should have. If you were standing where we're standing.
18:13 Speaker 04 You actually do look a bit like your dad when you took that off.
18:19 Speaker 05 With a terrible moustache on Jack and an even more terrible latex old man mask on Hamish, the chance of being caught was high, so Andy was keen to talk getaway plans.
18:31 Speaker 04 In success, what does a getaway look like?
18:34 Speaker 02 That's a, there's a success getaway, but there's also an emergency getaway.
18:38 Speaker 04 It's just an escape getaway. In success getaway?
18:40 Speaker 02 Yeah.
18:41 Speaker 04 Hame's at the back. Are you gonna take off the white suit and just be an old man? Or are you gonna be in the white suit and miss it?
18:48 Speaker 02 Once we, once we.
18:49 Speaker 03 You just stay old man now.
18:51 Speaker 02 Full old man. We're in white suits. We're getting away. Once we've robbed them, that's the victory. I mean, as the Louvre thieves ran off down the street.
18:59 Speaker 04 But am I, am I going in?
19:00 Speaker 02 You'll come with me.
19:01 Speaker 04 The car with Hame?
19:01 Speaker 03 If he's got the keys, you go with the Suzuki.
19:03 Speaker 02 Made of caulk and meat.
19:04 Speaker 03 I'll come out the front if he can't get the keys. Once you guys are out, you give me a code word back the other way.
19:08 Speaker 04 And we just leave all the stuff?
19:10 Speaker 02 Yeah, we're thieves. The job's done. Get the painting, wrap it in the sheet. We go out the back door to where the Suzuki is. We roll up the garage. It works. You load the painting into the back. I get into the Suzuki. I back out. I yell Cinderella has left the ball to Jack.
19:25 Speaker 04 Beautiful. Yep, that's good.
19:27 Speaker 02 Then we escape. Jack goes, I'll be back in a minute or whatever. You don't have to pay.
19:31 Speaker 03 I'll go, yeah, actually you say that, say that and I'll go.
19:33 Speaker 02 Cinderella's left the ball.
19:34 Speaker 03 It must be midnight already and that's my cue to get in the car.
19:38 Speaker 02 You say that on the radio in front of ten office workers.
19:42 Speaker 02 Remember, your earpiece is in your ear, so there not gonna be any here over the radio. So we're like Cinderella's left the ball.
19:47 Speaker 04 Yes.
19:48 Speaker 02 You go, you just leave. We don't have to keep worrying about these like home and away like acting scenes we have to do in front of everyone.
19:57 Speaker 04 Once you've left, you can say whatever you like to us. Let us know.
20:01 Speaker 02 No, I say you get back in the van, but I would like a code word for that. That is actually good. If you were like, no one's turned into a pumpkin if we're gonna stick with the Cinderella thing.
20:09 Speaker 03 But you're right, by that point, we don't really need a code word.
20:10 Speaker 02 That's good though, because we know then you've made it back into the van. And we now have two vehicles, one stolen, one our van on the road. We're getting away from the crime and that is a success.
20:19 Speaker 03 What about we call the worker van the pumpkin? And the Suzuki, the princess's carriage?
20:27 Speaker 02 Great. Cinderella's left the ball with the princess's carriage.
20:30 Speaker 03 Let's play some by ear, because
20:32 Speaker 02 Oh, there'll be a lot by ear. I can promise you it won't go like any of the scenarios we've outlined.
20:46 Speaker 05 5am, a dark street in Mildura. Three men dressed in white coveralls sit in the front of a white van. Signs adorn the side proclaiming them to be from AGA Safe Energy. Yellow flashing lights illuminate the early morning sky.
21:08 Speaker 02 How'd you sleep? Too excited. Jack, I have the moustaches hate better. Yeah, without those handlebars, you look, you look 50. Well, why would I want to look 50? Authoritative. I know, I don't look, I actually look younger, I thought. There's a lot of people around already. Yeah, people were around about, no one's, none that would scream accountant turning up to work for me. And there's joggers and a street sweeper. Hi, um, how's everyone feeling? Everyone feel prepared? Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good. I woke up confident, so don't worry about my part. You've been, you've been great. You feel like you're right in the character? Yeah.
21:41 Speaker 02 What's with the shoes, Andy?
21:43 Speaker 03 What shoes?
21:43 Speaker 02 He's wearing sneakers. We had one job, mate, that was to bring boots. For all your printouts and for all taking all credit for all the props that Jess bought in the meeting last night. You turned up and I looked down and I went, gee, you don't see Mizuno work boots every day. I'm wearing a runner's outfit underneath. Why? If I need to split from you guys. Yeah, he's in like a Nike dry fit shirt. I think that I can just ditch the whole outfit and pretend I'm joking.
22:10 Speaker 03 I mean, I can see out of the corner of my eye, your old man mask. I just think that's way much of a bigger red flag than the shoes. So much more.
22:20 Speaker 02 I agree.
22:21 Speaker 03 I was hoping, I was kinda hoping that you would get up this morning and go, don't worry about it. I was jet lagged or whatever last night.
22:28 Speaker 02 Send you to Mudgeura. Do you know what? I am, I'm going in the old man because I think it adds a huge level of security to us and I will be taking a personal sacrifice for it because I've realised I'm going to be sitting in the truck for about two hours in the old man mask. It's going to be so hard to eat Snickers and drink coffees through those rubber lips. I think I'm going to rip the head off when I get inside because I think I'll be so sick of it by the time I get in there. But what does it do?
22:51 Speaker 03 That could be your call card and you're going to leave, you're going to leave the head in.
22:55 Speaker 02 No, why, it's far too expensive. It buys us, it's probably worth more than the Suzuki. It buys us those crucial few seconds as we're walking in and it backs you up. Backs you up as someone looks over and goes, oh, they've got a lot of weight.
23:06 Speaker 03 You're not the weirdest looking person I've seen today.
23:10 Speaker 02 Takes a bit of hate.
23:11 Speaker 03 We're going to have a drink, you've lost your wife's glasses.
23:14 Speaker 02 It's not about individual suspicion, it's about as a collective, do we look believable? Yeah, I think so because that way we're not all the same age and we've got an old man in the crew. Why would someone go, I don't believe this because you guys are all the same age? Well, they're not going to say that.
23:28 Speaker 03 Mate, we're only going to run out of time. We've got to go check it out.
23:31 Speaker 05 Driving slowly past the target location, the Burg boys began to see their plans materialise before them.
23:39 Speaker 03 Is this one of the doors too?
23:40 Speaker 02 Yeah, this is another entrance.
23:42 Speaker 03 Alright, let's start boliding. Okay, great. What are we putting? Did anyone bring blue tack or sticky tape for the sign?
23:47 Speaker 02 Yeah.
23:48 Speaker 03 Great. What do you reckon, blue tack or sticky tape? I've got both.
23:51 Speaker 02 Blue tack's good. Don't run off.
23:55 Speaker 02 Andy, come on, we can do this.
24:01 Speaker 02 We're on, we're on. We're on. Just remember, we're basically on from here, from now. Anything could happen from here.
24:11 Speaker 02 Bollard wanted to go. I've got around the back with this one. Bollard two deployed.
24:17 Speaker 05 Front and side doors secured with emergency tape, Bollards, and a warning notice. But their blind spot still remained: The rear door into the car park.
24:28 Speaker 06 Jack, what the hell's going on back there? Bollard three at the back door, but there is no sign of the Suzuki Swift back here, unless it's in the carport, which is separate from the building. Say again, the princess's carriage is not at the ball? Unless it's in Prince Charming's garage. Oh my God. Yeah, I'm with Prince Charming here, haven't seen it. But you'll need, you definitely will be needing to look for some sort of garage opener, as well if you want to escape with the Suzuki. Copy that, we're coming to you.
25:08 Speaker 05 Entrances all successfully barricaded. What followed was a 15-minute discussion about where to park the van.
25:15 Speaker 04 I was thinking how if we park over there?
25:16 Speaker 02 Nah, I think we should put it on the corner so we see both entrances. Or do you want the van out the front with the lights on, Jack, for more? I think lights flashing is good. Do you want the van just sort of parked up there with the lights on? We won't be able to see this.
25:30 Speaker 03 Why don't we just park up here a bit illegally because we've got the lights on?
25:34 Speaker 05 After much...
25:35 Speaker 02 I think we just have to do the front.
25:36 Speaker 05 Much...
25:37 Speaker 02 Park over here.
25:37 Speaker 03 I like up on the curb.
25:39 Speaker 05 Much discussion.
25:40 Speaker 02 There's no way the Louvre guys did this on the morning of the night.
25:45 Speaker 04 Outside the venue.
25:46 Speaker 02 Standing outside, arguing where we're going to put the cherry pick up.
25:50 Speaker 05 They eventually parked right out the front, 20 metres from the front door. They then proceeded to admire their heisting handiwork from the footpath, until they noticed something right above the front door.
26:02 Speaker 04 Looks like the security camera at the top there.
26:05 Speaker 02 We're all staring at it. Wish I'd put the mask on.
26:18 Speaker 02 Anyway, hey guys, there's a car there, there's a car there, look official.
26:23 Speaker 05 Spooked by the CCTV, the Burg Boys retreated to the safety of the pumpkin. Or rather, the van.
26:31 Speaker 04 Should I sit in the back of the van in case someone does call? Because if they turn around and I'm on the phone and they're at the front door.
26:37 Speaker 03 No, you guys should be waiting in the van the whole time.
26:40 Speaker 04 Inside the van?
26:41 Speaker 03 Yeah, you don't want to be seen.
26:43 Speaker 02 I agree.
26:44 Speaker 04 Yeah, okay, we'll get in the back.
26:45 Speaker 03 Wait, should I like have a turn of driving? Because I haven't driven it yet and like what if I gotta get away?
26:51 Speaker 02 Why do you need a turn of driving? Oh, because you're gonna drive as a getaway driver?
26:54 Speaker 03 Yeah.
26:55 Speaker 04 Yeah, but it's a car.
26:56 Speaker 03 Yeah, but yesterday when, because we got here early, we went to play golf. We sat, Darcy and I sat in the car for like 20 minutes trying to turn it on.
27:05 Speaker 04 This car?
27:06 Speaker 03 We had the wrong car keys because we had the other van.
27:11 Speaker 02 Well, do you want me to?
27:12 Speaker 03 That obviously won't happen, but you know, just like sometimes in a high car, you don't know.
27:16 Speaker 02 Yeah.
27:17 Speaker 03 You don't know what's going on.
27:18 Speaker 02 Oh man, I need a coffee. I can't even get them.
27:23 Speaker 04 I think, I'm confident you'll know how to drive a car.
27:26 Speaker 05 But Jack wasn't confident, so he did go for a test drive.
27:30 Speaker 04 Test drive of the pumpkin commencing.
27:32 Speaker 05 Meanwhile, Hamish put on his old man mask so he wouldn't be recognised on the street.
27:37 Speaker 04 Now we're out in like proper daylight. Yeah, and I can see your youthful skin and eyes underneath the, see it?
27:45 Speaker 02 Yeah, I know what you mean.
27:47 Speaker 04 Yeah.
27:50 Speaker 02 I look a bit like E.T.
27:52 Speaker 04 Yeah, you look like E.T. And then, oh, Jack.
27:54 Speaker 03 Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, stop.
27:56 Speaker 04 Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. You didn't close the side door of your car.
28:04 Speaker 04 You are so scary.
28:05 Speaker 02 I think I'm gonna take the old man suit off. Huge moment, but I think I've gotta lose the old man outfit. It's a two man.
28:13 Speaker 04 Yeah.
28:13 Speaker 02 I don't know why you think I'll be shocked, I've been saying that since 10 o'clock last night.
28:17 Speaker 04 Are you comfortable with the car? Let's get it back in and let's go back to being properly.
28:20 Speaker 02 Yeah.
28:21 Speaker 04 Jump in the car with Jack until we can park it up.
28:24 Speaker 02 Do a costume change, right out the front.
28:28 Speaker 04 Abort, abort, abort.
28:29 Speaker 02 Get in the car.
28:31 Speaker 04 Why am I getting in the car?
28:32 Speaker 02 He's gonna go for a practice lap. No, he's done his lap, he's called it out. Do your lap.
28:38 Speaker 06 Just give me one lap, I'll be back in a second. No one's coming yet, not even 6am.
28:45 Speaker 02 This is the most dangerous time and now you've got no disguise outside.
28:52 Speaker 05 As the sun began to rise, the conversation alternated between how hungry they were.
28:58 Speaker 04 Do you wanna go through Mack as in the Suzuki?
29:00 Speaker 02 That'd be a nice little victory lap, wouldn't it?
29:02 Speaker 05 And how terrible Hamish's old man mask was.
29:05 Speaker 02 I gotta say, I'm not feeling nude as hell without the old man mask on, but having seen it in the daylight, it was a bit old. I get it.
29:13 Speaker 04 Yeah, it was far worse when we saw it in daylight. Like last night, I was tired, but I think it was quite convincing last night, Jack, wasn't it?
29:21 Speaker 03 I wouldn't even use that language. After him having it on for five minutes and then putting the gas mask on to cover most of it and a cap on to cover the other half, it might be from far away a real person, but it never looked convincing.
29:36 Speaker 02 Yeah. It is a bit rubbery.
29:41 Speaker 04 What are our names? I don't think we've ever covered that off.
29:43 Speaker 02 We're Blink 102.
29:44 Speaker 03 Yeah, Mark, Tom and Travis.
29:46 Speaker 04 Well, who's who?
29:46 Speaker 03 Who do you wanna be?
29:48 Speaker 02 I'll be Trav.
29:48 Speaker 03 You know what, I should be Travis because he joined the band last and you guys, you, Hamish and Andy, who was together and then I came.
29:54 Speaker 04 Who's the drummer?
29:55 Speaker 03 Travis, yeah, he joined last.
29:57 Speaker 02 Definitely Travis, definitely Travis. Doesn't matter.
29:59 Speaker 03 I think that's true, actually.
30:01 Speaker 02 We are not.
30:02 Speaker 03 But you know what, Mark and Tom were friends from like high school and that's sort of like you and Andy. And Travis came later.
30:09 Speaker 02 I'll be Tom. What does he do? Andy's middle name's Thomas, I'm a drummer, so I'm Trav.
30:13 Speaker 03 Yeah, Tom's the lead singer and guitarist.
30:15 Speaker 02 Okay, what are you?
30:17 Speaker 03 I'm Mark then, if you're Travis.
30:19 Speaker 02 Yeah, you're the bassist.
30:19 Speaker 03 Yeah.
30:20 Speaker 02 Opus.
30:20 Speaker 03 Yeah, well done.
30:22 Speaker 02 I'm very good with names and bases.
30:25 Speaker 03 And he wears glasses, and I've got glasses on today as a disguise.
30:29 Speaker 02 I don't know why we need our aliases to line up with our personalities.
30:35 Speaker 03 Okay, but yeah, that's good. Mark, Tom, Travis, great.
30:38 Speaker 05 Well, I'm sure those names won't get confusing in the heat of the moment at all. Forty-five minutes in, time for a perimeter check.
30:47 Speaker 06 How's everything looking out there, Mark? Good traps, no sign of people yet, but I would say the bollards we put up look very convincing. Thanks, mate. No one at front door, moving to side door. Would my character look at their phone a bit? Mate, if I was you, I'd be on the phone the whole time. On a call or like looking on online? Just scrolling through new bass guitars, strings, picks, things like that. Side door clear, moving to rear entrance. One, two, three, four, copy that, Mark. Hey, Mark, I'm wondering who the risks were you on?
31:22 Speaker 06 McLaughlin, Hush Brown, make a weak coffee. A weak coffee? Yeah, I get jittery if I drink straight coffee. I want it for the prop, because I think it'll look convincing for my character, but I don't like to drink coffee. We're gonna get you a tea just so you don't scream and kiss the first person you see. Rear entrance abandoned, or like, like no one's here, I mean. I mean, that's one of the risks we run is we've got here so early. We're gonna run down all the batteries and all the microphones and everything before anyone gets here.
31:55 Speaker 05 But the batteries were running strong, and the confidence of the Burg Boys was starting to ride high, too.
32:02 Speaker 03 I'll just say the setup looks great, like the van with the flashing lights.
32:06 Speaker 02 We're ready.
32:07 Speaker 03 All the bollards put up.
32:09 Speaker 02 We're ready.
32:09 Speaker 03 Like, there's no reason not to believe this.
32:12 Speaker 02 Jack, you should completely believe we have the full upper hand, have the element of surprise and convince. We're gonna be fully convincing here.
32:20 Speaker 03 Yep.
32:20 Speaker 05 But part of a heist is the waiting, and the conversations that happen during the waiting. So over the next hour, the boys covered such topics as the local area.
32:31 Speaker 03 Is Sun Raisier the area?
32:33 Speaker 02 Yeah.
32:34 Speaker 03 Because I always thought it was the Sultana brand.
32:36 Speaker 02 Yeah, I had the same question when I was up here.
32:39 Speaker 05 Their golf games.
32:40 Speaker 02 I haven't chipped in for years.
32:42 Speaker 03 And in fact, I had a chip in the other day, I had a chip in birdie.
32:44 Speaker 05 The weather.
32:45 Speaker 02 We arrived in a massive dust storm yesterday. Oh really? Yeah. Couldn't see a thing.
32:52 Speaker 02 Do you swim still a lot, Andy? No, haven't been at all, probably get back in work. Oh, you might get a run in today.
33:01 Speaker 02 What was your first family car you ever bought?
33:03 Speaker 03 Turk, Mercedes.
33:04 Speaker 02 Oh.
33:05 Speaker 03 Yeah.
33:06 Speaker 02 Then we bought the Magna Executive because we needed a car to drive from Melbourne to Exmoora 88. That's a, that's a nice car.
33:13 Speaker 03 I was at Exmoora 88 as a one-year-old or two-year-old.
33:17 Speaker 05 But at a moment's notice, they snapped back to the task at hand.
33:21 Speaker 06 Guys, we could be on here, we could be on here, car entering the car park. Good luck, Jack, good luck. Feeling confident? You got this, bud. See your speed difference, you use, you got a few technicians round the corner. You're gonna, you're gonna fit it out. Close alarm? He's gone. It was a good test to see how hot my heart rate went up.
33:43 Speaker 05 And if Jack's heart rate went up on a false alarm, imagine what it did when this happened.
33:49 Speaker 02 Cops are in the area, Jack, just play it calm.
33:52 Speaker 06 Say again, the cops were here?
33:56 Speaker 06 What code name should we give the cops?
33:59 Speaker 02 The Blue King has arrived at the ball.
34:02 Speaker 02 Yeah, great, not a character from Cinderella, but still work. I mean, could just be the regular king, but I think the Blue King helps us remember it's police, right? Yep, copy. Every time Jack says "copy", I think he's saying "coffee" and I get excited.
34:16 Speaker 05 However, just moments after the coffee delivery did arrive, it looked like the heist might be on.
34:23 Speaker 06 Potential target, potential accountant crossing the road. We're on, we're on, we're on. We're on, we're on. Should I hold my coffee or not hold coffee? I'll hold it.
34:35 Speaker 05 After no action for an hour and a half, suddenly, two female employees had turned up at the same time, wearing D H M Partners uniforms.
34:45 Speaker 06 Good luck, you bro.
34:47 Speaker 05 They crossed the road towards the entrance and Jack approached.
34:52 Speaker 03 Good.
34:52 Speaker 00 You want to go in?
34:53 Speaker 03 G'day, are you working here, are you?
34:54 Speaker 00 Yes, we do.
34:55 Speaker 03 Hey, I'm Mark, nice to meet you.
34:56 Speaker 00 Hi, I'm Tamika, how are you doing?
34:58 Speaker 03 Tamika, yeah. You've got a potential gas leak here.
35:01 Speaker 00 Oh shit.
35:02 Speaker 03 Yes, so it's not safe to be in there for a long time, so our techs are gonna go in.
35:09 Speaker 00 Yep.
35:11 Speaker 00 There's a potential gas leak, eh?
35:13 Speaker 03 Mmm.
35:14 Speaker 00 Okay.
35:15 Speaker 03 So...
35:16 Speaker 00 How did that get detected?
35:18 Speaker 03 It gets detected at head office. They can like, they just can tell that something's drawing gas when it shouldn't be.
35:25 Speaker 00 Right, okay.
35:26 Speaker 03 So it could be nothing, but it's best our guys go in.
35:29 Speaker 00 Of course.
35:30 Speaker 03 They'll do a test and then, you know, it could be 10 minutes later you're back in again.
35:33 Speaker 00 Yeah, yeah.
35:36 Speaker 03 But...
35:37 Speaker 00 Okay. I think I have said to you once that I reckon I could smell gas. And that's, and this is a while back, but, I don't know. I'm just gonna call Rob. Yeah.
35:48 Speaker 03 Yeah, sure.
35:49 Speaker 00 Just let him know.
35:50 Speaker 06 Get access.
35:52 Speaker 00 So are they in there now?
35:54 Speaker 03 No, no, we actually need to get access. So we've been trying to call your guys, but having trouble getting on to anyone.
36:00 Speaker 00 Oh, okay. Oh, it's Sophie that went here.
36:04 Speaker 03 Yeah. Yeah, it is actually, we've been here since about 5am.
36:07 Speaker 00 Oh shit.
36:08 Speaker 03 Yeah.
36:10 Speaker 06 You have to convince the woman on the phone that you need access.
36:14 Speaker 03 So is there...
36:15 Speaker 06 You're doing great, you're doing really, really well.
36:17 Speaker 03 Is there a security code or anything that you needed to turn off?
36:22 Speaker 00 We can just unlock the door. Well, I can unlock it if you want.
36:26 Speaker 03 Yeah, I'll wait out, these guys will go in, I'll wait out here with you guys. I can move this for you now, thank you. That was just in case we weren't watching while someone came and we didn't know which entrance someone would come in.
36:37 Speaker 00 Yeah.
36:37 Speaker 03 I'll peel that off for you as well.
36:40 Speaker 05 Jack removed the baller so the employee could access the front door. Would she open up for them? Could it be this easy?
36:48 Speaker 06 Guys, a little update, they're buying it, that's for a good thing. And one of the girls is on the phone with some sort of basketball manager, just asking questions. Give us him, mate, Jack, give us him.
37:00 Speaker 04 Yep, he's opening the baller, she's opening it up.
37:02 Speaker 02 All right, all right, here we go.
37:05 Speaker 03 Alright, now we're gonna have to walk past the girl with the ponytail. Do not make eye contact. She can make us. We're waiting for Jack's call.
37:14 Speaker 06 Yep, the door is unlocked. That's what I can tell you. And as soon as she gets off the phone, I'll start pressuring her to go in. Yeah, for me, you're doing great, mate. You're doing really well, but you need to get them both out the front, and you need to get your technicians in there. Yep, copy that.
37:32 Speaker 03 Alright, so is it okay if these guys go in now? Yeah, absolutely, yeah. And how do we just push the doors open, do we? Yeah, just push them open. Yeah, great.
37:43 Speaker 03 Alright, fellas, we should be good to go in. We'll see you, mate.
37:49 Speaker 03 And can I just get, can I get your guys' name? Yeah, absolutely. And contact, what's your name? I'm Tamika. And your number, Tamika? 04 double.
37:58 Speaker 05 So while Jack distracted the girls out the front, Hamish and Andy, wearing hazmat gear and full respirator masks, made their way inside.
38:08 Speaker 04 I'd love to see him.
38:11 Speaker 05 The Burg boys were in, and Andy locked the door behind them so they wouldn't be disturbed. First task: put up the sheet to hide them from view.
38:20 Speaker 04 Sheet, sheet, sheet. You got tape? You want tape? Yeah. I'll get this up and then we'll put all that stuff in.
38:28 Speaker 06 Guys, I can't believe we're in. So cool. Oh my god, it's working. Copy that. Great job, Jack. We're putting the sheet up. I'm about to start rummaging.
38:35 Speaker 05 But then, in a moment of déjà vu, they looked up above the reception desk and saw two security cameras blinking back at them.
38:46 Speaker 04 They're our security cameras, mate.
38:48 Speaker 02 They're our security cameras.
38:49 Speaker 04 We're just playing on, playing on.
38:51 Speaker 06 I'm just doing a pass, past the front window just to see if I can see anything. I can't see a thing in there, so don't rummage away.
38:59 Speaker 05 Ignoring the CCTV, and with the sheet in place, Andy turned his attention to the painting, and Hamish was laser-focused on finding the Suzuki keys and garage opener.
39:11 Speaker 06 Commencing rummaging.
39:20 Speaker 06 Just a heads up, they said their director's on his way down. So, let's keep that 10 minute timeline, hey?
39:29 Speaker 02 Oh my god, I found some keys.
39:30 Speaker 04 Your keys?
39:31 Speaker 02 It's Suzuki.
39:32 Speaker 04 Is it?
39:33 Speaker 02 I've got the Suzuki keys!
39:35 Speaker 04 Holy m***. You've taken the painting off? Okay, I've got the painting. Let's wrap this.
39:39 Speaker 06 Jack, Cinderella has the magic flipper. Cinderella has the glass flipper. I have the keys. You're kidding me? Well done. And you can look for any kind of garage opener?
39:51 Speaker 04 It's a garage opener, isn't it?
39:52 Speaker 02 We have the garage opener now. We've got to move through the building.
39:55 Speaker 06 Cinderella taking glass flipper out the back to Prince's carriage to see if we can get it out of the stables.
40:02 Speaker 04 Okay, straight down the back door.
40:05 Speaker 02 Heading out now.
40:06 Speaker 04 It's like a back exit here. Doesn't look like it's an alarm.
40:09 Speaker 06 Cinderella and Prince Charming heading out the back.
40:12 Speaker 05 Meanwhile, Jack was still out the front trying to keep the employees busy, but their questions were starting to test the limits of his knowledge.
40:20 Speaker 00 So you just get a notification to say that there could potentially be a gas leak? Is that how it works?
40:24 Speaker 03 Yeah, well, this one, I think they said this one actually shut the gas off. So it was drawing gas at 3am when it shouldn't be. So the gas was shut off to this building and then these guys will just run a test to see how much pollutants in the air.
40:42 Speaker 00 Yeah, okay.
40:43 Speaker 03 And then get you back in. But I mean, sometimes we come out and it's been, it's been nothing.
40:49 Speaker 00 Been nothing, yeah, yeah.
40:51 Speaker 05 Despite having a copy of the blueprints for months, Andy seemed to get them lost between the front door and the back one. Their exit strategy was in trouble.
41:01 Speaker 04 Hang on, this is the wrong way.
41:02 Speaker 02 No, you're the one that memorized that. No, that's the back door. That's the back window. Prince Charming's later sound the wrong track. Trying to get an exit.
41:11 Speaker 04 Here we go.
41:13 Speaker 02 That's the store. That's the store.
41:14 Speaker 04 It's his exit.
41:16 Speaker 02 Mate, sorry, wish Andy had...
41:17 Speaker 04 Yeah, we got it here. It's the store.
41:18 Speaker 02 Wish Andy had memorized the floorplan better. He's got us out.
41:22 Speaker 04 Okay, we're not out the back yet.
41:23 Speaker 02 We are not out the back. We're still at the ball.
41:26 Speaker 04 Okay, you ready? You got the keys to open the door?
41:29 Speaker 06 Prince Charming, Cinderella, please, go.
41:31 Speaker 04 Go, open that garage door.
41:35 Speaker 02 Is it opening? Carriage is opening. We're out. Suzuki is there. Repeat, the carriage is there, the carriage is there.
41:44 Speaker 04 Pop this down, someone put this in. There's no back doors.
41:48 Speaker 04 There we go.
41:51 Speaker 04 Right.
41:52 Speaker 05 They were nearly home. The Suzuki was open. They just needed to load the painting, open the roller door, and speed off to freedom.
42:01 Speaker 02 We're just loading the painting in now. Kevin's doing Prince Charming, loading the painting. Cinderella and Prince Charming, preparing to leave the ball.
42:08 Speaker 05 However, the last person to drive the Suzuki must have been really short.
42:14 Speaker 04 Oh God, so tight.
42:16 Speaker 02 It's a really short person who's been driving, I think, here.
42:18 Speaker 04 So short, yeah, yeah.
42:22 Speaker 02 Have we got everything? Yep.
42:26 Speaker 04 Don't celebrate too much.
42:27 Speaker 02 Not celebrating yet, not celebrating yet. Alright.
42:31 Speaker 05 And suddenly, they were away.
42:34 Speaker 02 Backing out safely. Let's close the carriage door.
42:39 Speaker 06 You're kidding me, are you driving the Suzuki right now?
42:43 Speaker 02 Baby driver, we are out of here, take a left up here, him.
42:46 Speaker 05 Jack quickly realised his accomplices were out, leaving him the only guilty party still on sight.
42:53 Speaker 02 Cinderella and Prince Charming to Ugly Sister One. We are gone, repeat. Cinderella and Prince Charming have left the ball in the princess carriage, get out of there.
43:04 Speaker 05 So he made up a quick lie, jumped in the van, and made a hasty retreat.
43:10 Speaker 04 Just gonna move this onto this street here.
43:13 Speaker 06 Alright, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm hearing that you're coming out, I'm leaving. Just leaving the gear behind.
43:21 Speaker 02 Guess what?
43:23 Speaker 02 It was like three minutes tops. Mate, what are those girls thinking?
43:27 Speaker 04 Have we left the other vehicle there?
43:29 Speaker 05 They were in and out so quick, they thought maybe they'd left Jack behind in the chaos.
43:34 Speaker 02 Jack, you won't fit in our car, you think you're coming to our car, we're gone? Go grab the other car and leave. Jack, are you okay? Confirm, are you okay?
43:41 Speaker 06 I can't believe it, I'm right behind Jack, can you hear me?
43:43 Speaker 02 Is he behind us?
43:44 Speaker 04 He's right behind us, yes! Yes! Yes!
43:48 Speaker 06 I can't believe this. Oh my God, well done. Congratulations, everybody.
43:53 Speaker 03 Amazing stuff.
43:55 Speaker 04 Don't run a red, just be cool everyone, just be cool.
43:58 Speaker 05 But they weren't cool for long, for they were successful Burg boys.
44:05 Speaker 04 The perfect time, the frigging perfect time.
44:13 Speaker 05 But celebrations were short-lived, as they missed the turn-off to their hideout.
44:17 Speaker 04 Lefty, man, that's it. That's our hotel.
44:21 Speaker 02 Oh, that's our hotel.
44:22 Speaker 04 Imagine we got caught now after missing the turn-off to our hideout.
44:26 Speaker 02 I didn't realize how close our hotel we were.
44:28 Speaker 03 Where are we going, question marks?
44:30 Speaker 04 We've got question marks, yeah, we missed that turn-off to that, to the secret hotel.
44:35 Speaker 03 Uh, we'll do a lap, guys.
44:36 Speaker 05 After doing a blocky in the swift, they eventually arrived back at the motel hideout to regroup and congratulate each other.
44:45 Speaker 04 We did it.
44:48 Speaker 02 Unbelievable hosting, unbelievable hosting.
44:52 Speaker 04 We did it, I can't believe it.
44:56 Speaker 03 The car and the painting, and the painting?
44:59 Speaker 04 Oh my god.
45:00 Speaker 02 Come on, let's get a, let's get a shot with the loot.
45:03 Speaker 04 Huge.
45:06 Speaker 04 Oh my god. We even took down the sheet inside. You did so good.
45:21 Speaker 05 But suddenly, the self-congratulation would have to wait, because Andy's phone was ringing.
45:26 Speaker 04 Oh, someone's calling the number.
45:28 Speaker 05 Someone back at the building had called the 1-800 number.
45:31 Speaker 04 Adrian, safeguard, Damien speaking.
45:34 Speaker 07 Hi Damien, it's just me from D H S Partners. I see the guys that are on our site checking.
45:40 Speaker 04 Let me see, yeah, we've got a system, our system says we should have three people there at the moment, three technicians there at the moment.
45:46 Speaker 07 Yeah, yeah, no, he was just parked out the front and he said he was just moving the van around to the other side. Um, but the van was just gone, so we're just waiting out the front, so I wasn't sure where he went off to, but the guys are obviously still inside, I'm not sure where the van's gone, that's all.
46:01 Speaker 04 Yeah, it's still reading his continuous flow from our end of things. Um, yeah, they'll be out soon, I'll, I'll radio them now and make sure they can't see you.
46:10 Speaker 07 Okay, of course. No worries. Thanks so much for that.
46:13 Speaker 03 Bye.
46:16 Speaker 02 Oh man, even though we're finished, we can't stop.
46:19 Speaker 03 Yeah, we've got a taste for it.
46:24 Speaker 01 But the Burg Boys don't keep their goods. They return them. So it was time to put Tamika and Sharon out of their misery and reveal the heist.
46:36 Speaker 02 You guys recognise this, Ker?
46:42 Speaker 02 You let a couple of thieves into the building.
46:44 Speaker 00 Oh my god!
46:46 Speaker 03 We robbed your place.
46:48 Speaker 02 We robbed your blind.
46:51 Speaker 00 I thought you were shady.
46:54 Speaker 03 You didn't say that at the time?
46:56 Speaker 00 No, I thought you were shady.
46:58 Speaker 02 Tell us what gave, was something giving Jack away?
47:00 Speaker 00 Because he just disappeared. Yeah. I'm like, what the hell? Like, where's he gone?
47:05 Speaker 02 By that stage, we already had your Suzuki and your painting and we were long gone.
47:11 Speaker 02 Thank god we weren't real criminals because we've been sent here by upper management to test the security of the building. Unfortunately, we have to say, she is full of holes. But I cannot stress enough how well we did.
47:26 Speaker 00 You did it.
47:27 Speaker 03 I, I got them in the building. What are you talking, you believe me 100%?
47:33 Speaker 00 I did believe you.
47:34 Speaker 03 I know, you never looked at me suspiciously.
47:36 Speaker 00 No, I was, you were shady. I could say there was something, I could say something.
47:39 Speaker 03 In high times, it's very easy to call someone shady.
47:45 Speaker 01 And so, dear friends, that draws to a close the story of the Burg Boys and 2025. Hamish, Andy and Jack will be back in 2026 after the mandated break.
48:00 Speaker 02 How do I know?
48:01 Speaker 01 Because they told me and you can trust the Burg Boys. You can take that to the bank.
