* MundaneSolution: At the very beginning, a thief descends the outside of a tall building using a hoist, enters through the window, and steals a valuable painting. The mundane part is how they get it out of there: by putting it down the mail chute, in a pre-addressed cardboard tube. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, Mac steals the painting, saying "why rob the penthouse when the mail room is on the ground floor?".]]
