Soobin heard and walked back outside of the bathroom and started washing dishes at his station again. While Beomgyu lingered around the middle of the museum. Chaeryeong was waiting in the stall in the women's bathroom. Lia and Taehyun eyed Bridget carefully as she was telling them the story of getting to act in a movie alongside the King of India. The actress said, "The palace was so beautiful literally. And also when he-"
She stopped for a moment when she felt something coming up her throat. Lia asked, "Are you okay?"
Bridget brushed it off, "Yeah yeah, anyway when he-, when the king-"

She suddenly stood up and started running towards the bathroom. Yuna and Huening Kai high-fived as the two of them watched through the cameras from their safe house. They watched carefully as she ran past the camera positioned in front of the bathroom which Yuna had adjusted. Chaeryeong heard the actress throw a stall door open and start vomiting.

She walked out of her stall and walked towards her, "Oh my! Are you okay dear?"
"Please leave, I don't want anyone to look at me", Bridget said in between gasps of breath
"Alright then", Chaeryeong grinned as the actress lowered her head to throw up again and she lifted up the necklace in triumph, she held securely in her hand. She walked outside of the bathroom, carefully avoiding the camera which was directed only at the corner of the door.

She hurried when she heard Yuna warn her that the body guards for the necklace were heading towards the bathroom. She walked in the hallway just in time to stray away from the bathroom as the body guards turned the corner. She spotted Beomgyu walking slowly with a tray full of dirty plates. She walked past him as she slipped it onto the tray in between the dishes.

Beomgyu immediately picked up his pace and hurried back towards the kitchen and carried the tray of dirty dishes directly to Soobin's sink. He put it onto the top of the rack and went away. Soobin put the tray into the sink which was full of water. He then fumbled around until his fingers met the necklace, he sprayed a bit of water onto it as he admired it. He quickly put it into his pocket and called out, "Bathroom break!"

He rushed towards the bathroom near the back of the large kitchen and locked himself in the private one. He quickly rinsed the necklace one more time and pulled out the pliers he had kept in his pocket. He stood over the sink and slowly started cutting some of the pieces apart. Meanwhile, Chaeryeong had sat back down on the table looking innocent. She asked looking at the other guests' worried faces, "What happened?"

"Bridget ran off in the middle of her meal. She didn't seem well", Taehyun replied
Bebe Rexha added, "Did you see her in the toilet?"
"Oh, no I finished in the toilet a while ago. I stopped at the bar because I left my bracelet there and I met an old friend so we caught up on a few things", Chaeryeong replied
"It looked like her tummy was unwell, should I go check on her?", Bebe Rexha asked

The whole museum went quiet when they heard a woman let out a loud shriek, a few guests hurried towards the direction of the scream. Lia, Chaeryeong and Taehyun ran towards there as well. The guests found Bridget crying while sitting on the floor, the bodyguards were frantically speaking into their walkie talkies.

A man gasped at the front of the crowd and started whispering to everyone, "Her necklace is gone!"
The information was passed down the crowd and Chaeryeong and Lia shared a secret fist bump. One of the bodyguards had rushed over to the head staff standing at the side, "We need to evacuate, the team needs to do a full sweep"
The staff shook his head, "We can't do that, do you know what big names are here?"
"Cartier just lost many millions of dollars, what would you do if the Rembrandt was missing?", the bodyguard persuaded him

The head staff sighed and made his way towards the announcement station, he turned on the mic and said, "All guests we have just been informed that one of our guest's jewellery has gone missing. The team needs to do a full sweep of the area, so I'm really sorry but we need to ask all guests to evacuate the room and wait by the entrances. Guests who were at Ms.Bridget Evans' table please do stay back. The rest of you I apologise deeply but dinner will resume shortly. Just follow our ushers towards the entrances. All staff please do head towards the kitchen where someone will be scanning you and then wait in the loading dock"
