After the Heist

The Fingerprints

Debbie's POV:

"Hello?" John answers the phone, he was on speaker.
"John, this is Debbie Ocean."
"Where have you been? I've looked for you everywhere."
"Why are you in this case again?" I ask without responding to his previous question. "I had to be, I was practically forced." He says, I can sense he is mad about it. "Can I see you?"
I look at the girls, they all nodded.
"Okay, I'll send you the address."

An hour later there was a knock on the door, John Frazer.
"You are all here," he walks in surprised.
We all just looked at him, silence all around the room.
"Well that was a warm welcome," John says as he takes a seat next to daphne. "You are all in trouble," he opens up a file.
"If we go down, you are coming with us," I say solemnly.
"That's why I'm trying to help you."
"What do they have against us?" Lou asks, sitting down on the other side of John.
"Daphne's, Debbie's, Amita's, and Constances' fingerprints," he says, showing us the file with our faces on it.
"What?" Rose screams in surprise.
"You create a whole plan to steal the Toussaint in the Met gala and yet you forget to clean the damn diamond," John says in a harsh tone.
"I can't go to jail" Daphne starts panicking.
"We won't go to jail," I reply. "How can we fix this?" I ask John, trying to stay calm.
"We can cover up Daphne's fingerprints by saying she was at Claude's apartment and he showed her the diamond without her knowing it was stolen." John begins. "But I don't know where the rest of you would come in."
"I can say that I went to his house one day, technically we are not strangers" I suggest.
"But why were you there? We need to make it believable." John looks at me.
"We can think about the details later," Nine Ball says from the other side of the room.
"But what about Constance and Amita?" Tammy asks.
"Can't nine ball hack the system, and make it seem like they had a cleaning appointment at his apartment? Then they saw the diamond, touched it, and left?" Lou gives an idea.
"Does he hire cleaning ladies?" Rose asks.
We all look at Daphne, "He does," she answers.
"I would need the serial number of his camera in order to hack it," Nine ball says.
"What number?" Daphne asks.
"The serial number, it's on the side of the camera," nine ball says, trying to demonstrate.
"Daphne, do you think you can set up a fake date with him?" I ask, looking at Daphne.
"I can try," she replies while rolling her eyes.
"But how are we going to fake the cleaning ladies? If they look into them they will know they have money, why would they clean his house?" Tammy asked.
"They didn't have money but now they do," I suggest.
"Daphne would have to see the number and also steal his key. We will have to go to his apartment one day and have them clean around. I can hack his camera and make it seem like they were there that exact day." Nine Ball explains ignoring everything else.
"This is a whole mess, are you sure about this?" Amita asks, unsure of how safe this whole plan is. "We have no other choice." Constance answers.
"In the meantime, I will try to change documents to make it seem like all of this is real," John says, flipping through papers on his yellow folder. "And I will try to create fake papers about why all of the sudden they have all this money."
"Wait, so if they only have their fingerprints, how do they know I was involved as well?" Rose asks.
"They don't, none of you," John says looking around the room. "The only ones in trouble are Debbie, Daphne, Amita, and Constance. The rest of you are wasting your time here." John states.
"Oh, great," Lou says, laying down on the couch.
