Tricks, Cons and Bamboozles | Tuesday | Period 4
The students had been handwavily told to meet out by the Causeway today, ideally dressed a little nicer than was their usual, which he had had all too much fun snarkily incorporating into the email. Yep, it was field trip time for the Bamboozles class -- which had the added bonus of getting them away from the really creepy feeling Neal had been getting since the arrival of that giant rock.
"So today," he said, looking very dorkily eager about all of this, "we're going to take a field trip to see one of the best examples of conning of all time."
He could've just shown the movie, but that wouldn't have been nearly as fun. Nor would it have gotten him heavily-discounted a student group package to a musical he'd been meaning to see again anyway.
"It's a Broadway show called Find Me If You're Able. It's based on a movie, which in my opinion isn't half as good. And the movie is based on a memoir, and that's based on a real guy who created these incredible scams when he was only eighteen." Yep. That was definitely Neal's dorkface right now. Mock away, Kenzi. "So we're going to Portal over there now, if no one has any questions, and now you can all brag to your friends in Iowa or whatever that you've seen a Broadway show."
Just before hopping into the Portal, he added with a dorky little smile, "It won a Tony."
