"I-it'd be a lot easier to intercept him out in the terminal." "No, if this guy is as strapped as I think he is, he's gonna have a gang of security waiting outside the airport for him, one bodyguard on the plane." "You want to get close to him, you do it in here." "Sounds good." "Parker?" "While Eliot distracts the bodyguard," "I'll lift Keller's wallet and phone and do a briefcase switch."

"The further back you go in a criminal's career, the more primitive his methods, the more mistakes you can find as a way in... a lot more mistakes." "Hardison:" "Since Moreau started with antiquities, these companies and these bank accounts are the closest ties to his real life." "And since he's moved up, Keller's started running that part of the business." "And it's a cash cow." "The valuables from the looted Iraqi museum or an archaeological dig... they fetch millions on the black market in the west."

"I mean, he's already off on a flight to London." "Apparently he's a-a regular at Claridge's auction house." "Because you don't just sell on the black market." "The real payoff, the big money, is when you move it through legitimate auction houses." "You fake up the papers, you scrub off the blood and dirt, and you clean it up so that all the pretty people can show it off in their pretty bloody houses."

"Listen, I know I grifted from filthy-rich wankers who hardly ever missed the money, and half the time they love the thrill of being taken for a ride."

"A Mason ring or an engagement ring?" "A signet ring belonging to George, the prince regent." "Doesn't make any sense." "I mean, considering the priceless antiquities that Keller handles on a daily basis, this little trinket isn't worth very much." "Well, maybe he's buying it for a client." "But there'd be no need to shift something like this on the black market when it's right here in the open." "No, he wants this for himself." "I just have to figure out why." "Parker, what do you got for me?" "Ohh!" "This place is great!" "I recognize over half of this stuff." "Oh." "Hello." "Last time I saw you was at the Louvre." "Well, actually, you were in the back seat of my car, but before that you were at the Louvre." "Parker, focus!" "Okay." "We've got napoleonic silver..."

"And I think he's smirking at me." "Okay, perfect." "Statue of Ra." "Bring it to me." "You mean something." "You're not worth anything, so you mean something." "Hardison, did you find those files yet?" "Yes... now, look, when we get a moment, y'all are gonna have to explain this English filing system." "Now, as far as Keller goes, there's a big file and a small file." "Big file is all sales... antiquities, mostly from Iraq and Afghanistan, all with fake provenance." "What's in the small file?" "Small one is land purchases... old manor houses up for auction, all within the last two years, all in Scotland." "Ha!" "Places like, uh..." "Loch Glengorra..." "And loch McGr-r-r..."

"We have a lot of work to do... about 200 years' worth, actually." "All right, guys, let's go steal a royal title." "The royal cover story is easy to check, hard to fake." "I spent seven years establishing this persona." "Trust me, Nate." "It's rock-solid." "How'd you know he'd go for it?" "Keller's been buying up small but specific pieces of Scottish land." "Well, that's one way to obtain a minor barony." "He's also a royal fetishist." "I mean, there was no reason for him to overbid on the prince regent ring." "It had to be emotional." "Plus, when I introduced myself, he addressed me as "your grace"" "rather than the more common "my lady,"" "and he gave a little bow and kissed my hand." "And what was the Earl marshal part about?" "Oh, he controls the succession of titles in the peerage." "So, this is key... there are 86 unclaimed baronies in Great Britain." "It's just a title that no one holds." "And does it come with a castle?" "Sometimes." "Ooh!" "So, this is Keller's heart's desire, I take it?" "Hardison:" "Oh, yeah." "Checked into it, man." "He's applied for an audience with the Earl marshal six times in the past two years." "Denied." "Good guess." "It's not really a guess when it's that good, is it?"

"Oh, it's real, all right, and it's almost impossible to pull off in a country that has an actual monarchy." "The mummy's tiara involves using a forged relic to purchase a royal title." "A forged relic." "That means we need a forger." "I know a couple of guys in the States." "No, Hardison." "Unh-unh." "Hardison, you're gonna do it." "I'm a hacker." "I hack." "I don't forge." "You're not making a forgery." "You're gonna create a work of art." "Smell it." "That's how he knew that Nate was lying." "Go on." "[ Sniffs ]" "Oh, yeah." "It smells like statue." "And gold." "And?"

"But those spices were only used in Libyan tombs, not Egyptian ones." "Elliot, feel the base." "It's rough." "It's been sanded." "Markings from the acidic cleanser used in the British museum in the 1800s." "And that's how he knew it wasn't a recent find." "Can I taste it?" "You should." "Go on." "Tastes like cold." "Yeah, so, as you know, Parker, most metals heat up when they're held... platinum, for example... but gold, no." "Gold stays cool and impassive as a God." "So, if we're gonna fool an expert of Keller's caliber, then we're gonna have to overwhelm his senses with something too real to be fake." "Hardison, get busy." "There's your shopping list." "Don't skimp on supplies." "Use Eliot and Parker." "We're gonna go finish the deal with Keller and get him to transport our secret stash of treasures back to the States."

"There are 86 lost, or dormant, baronies." "The queen doesn't approve of titles lying fallow." "Having said that, it's almost impossible to claim one without the proper documentation." "I've done some research in that area myself." "It's proven less than fruitful." "Birth certificates, church records, even whole family trees are submitted for consideration." "But if you were to meet the Earl marshal with the private journal of a royal ancestor, even the queen herself couldn't refuse you." "A private journal?" "Belonging to?" "The mistress of king George III." "That's a myth." "Isn't it?" "As you know," "George's reign ended in abject failure... loss of the colonies, an incurable illness, a dim-witted son poised to take the throne." "The one thing he succeeded at was protecting his mistress, Catherine." "In a moment of clarity in the last throes of his disease, he sent a pregnant Catherine to America with a trunkful of treasure." "And Catherine..." "Kept a diary." "That has never been proved." "Of course." "Some say she became a commoner in Massachusetts." "Some say she died at sea." "Some say she never left London at all." "No one knows." "But a man who has her book could claim a direct descent to Catherine..." "And the king of England." "Now..." "That's got to be worth a barony and a small fortune." "I got your turpentine."
