"THIS is supposed to be someone's idea of security? Half the spotlights are burnt out, and there are barely any lasers! Add that to the fact that the lasers are moving slower than heavy traffic during rush hour on a highway with only one lane open in each direction..." Needless to say, Sly Cooper was pretty annoyed. He'd heard that the security at this museum was supposed to be the best within a 50-mile radius. Well, it was true... considering that the general concept of "security" within this 50-mile radius was you to just close the door before you left your house. No, not close AND lock it... JUST close it.

"Well, that's the last of the "security..." now it's time to get what I came for." Sly walked up to the small display case in the middle of the room. "What the... THIS is the star exhibit of the museum!" The display case held a diamond that Sly had been told was one of the most famous diamonds in the world. Well, it turned out that was true, but the reason was easy to see... the plaque said "World's Smallest Diamond." "There's no diamond here! Huh? What the... Oh, you've got to be kidding me..." Sly had just noticed a magnifying glass in a small box attached to the display case. A sign on the box said: "Use Magnifying Glass to View Exhibit."

Sly turned around and started to make his way back out of the museum. "That's the first AND LAST time I buy information that's had its price discounted..." Sly suddenly stopped in his tracks, his interest caught by another exhibit. When he walked over to the exhibit, the plaque read "Toy Treasure Map." "That thing doesn't look like a toy to me... it looks real! It might actually be worth something... hold on a moment!" Sly had just realized an exciting possibility. "Considering how naive people seem around here, I bet nobody's ever tried following this map... so there might be a treasure to find if I follow it!" Needless to say, Sly quickly smashed the display case and took the map.

"This is definitely not a toy! This looks like a genuine treasure map!" Feeling somewhat better, Sly quicly made his way out of the museum. "Who knows what awaits me if I follow this map... and besides I could use a break from my usual routine." As Sly left the museum, he had no idea that he was right about that... and that the plaque for the map he had just stolen was right as well. The catch was that Sly had been mistaken in his assumption about what the plaque had meant.
