* ComplexityAddiction: Mantissa and Cesare’s plan to steal Botticelli’s ''Birth of Venus'', which involves disguising themselves as workmen, travelling three corridors to enter a gallery with only one entrance/exit, hiding the enormous painting inside a ''hollowed four-meter Judas tree'' which they intend to haul in and out with them, exiting the way they came and taking an elevator outside (creating lots of opportunities for guards to catch them), then walking several hundred yards to escape on a barge, all while working with multiple third parties who could betray them. The Gaucho, a Venezuelan revolutionary assisting them, calls them both lunatics and tries to back out of the plan. He suggests simply [[StatingTheSimpleSolution throwing a bomb at the gallery wall, grabbing the painting and commandeering a carriage]], witnesses be damned.
