Make sure to kick clear of the car
I would like to workshop this idea
Oh, shit!
The film opens with a brief story, on the
tale of Cleopatra and Antony
On their wedding day, he presented her with three golden bejeweled eggs, as a symbol of
his love for her
And After their deaths, the eggs were hidden for centuries and believed to be mere myths
but two of the eggs were later unearthed by a farmer, while the third remained hidden
in secrecy
In the present day, someone is working on a replica of one of the eggs
in Rome, a Special Agent named Hartley
joins Interpol Inspector, her name is Urvashi, at a museum on the hunt for a wanted art thief,
named Nolan
after being given information, by a source known only as The Bishop
They speak to the museum director, as he leads them to one of Cleopatra’s eggs on display
to the tourists
Hartley does a thermal reading of the egg
and he uses a kid’s Can of Coke, to reveal that the egg on display is a fake, and someone
else has the real one
As she orders the place to be locked down, Nolan pops out of the crowd, and makes a run
for it, with the egg
the Guards chase him, and Hartley was close to catching him
but Nolan tries to escape again, and Hartley follow him
Nolan rides off on a motorcycle
as Hartley tries to chase him in a car, he gets T-boned by a gelato truck, and Nolan
gets away
Days later in Bali, Nolan finds Hartley in the home, and brings out the agents to arrest
him and secure the egg
Hartley accuses him, of stealing William Strang’s Lady with a Red Hat
but Nolan, says that He can't prove that
As the team takes Nolan away, an unknown agent switches out the egg for a fake one
Hartley goes back to Rome, where he is found in a bar by Urvashi
She shows him the egg, which was replaced after shattering it on the floor
she also notes that an $8 million wire transfer, was sent to his bank account
leading her to believe, that he was involved in the robbery
Although he insists that he is innocent, she has Hartley arrested
Hartley is sent to a Russian prison, where he finds that Nolan will be his cellmate
Hartley deduces that he was set up, by The Bishop
And Nolan informs him, that whoever is in possession of the three eggs, he must deliver
them to an Egyptian billionaire by the eve of his daughter’s wedding, for a payment
of $300 million
and The men know that the second egg, is in the possession of an international arms dealer
and a chance to swipe the egg from him, would be during one of his famous parties
Moments later, Nolan draws attention to them by yelling out to the whole cafeteria that
Hartley is a cop
This prompts a large and dangerous inmate, to stand up and challenge Hartley
Although Hartley tells him, that he doesn’t want trouble
he hits Hartley in front of everyone, before guards bring him
after that, they back to their cell
the next day, they have an important visit
The guys are brought to meet The Bishop face-to-face, and she turns out to be the undercover agent,
who swapped out the eggs
And She says that she transferred money to Hartley’s bank account, and also that she
has been one step ahead of Nolan, to become the world’s number one art thief
And she sure that Nolan, knows where the location of the third egg is.
and will let him out of there with a 10% cut, but he refuses to tell her anything
She orders the guards to put them in hard labor
While trying to come up with a plan to clear his name, Hartley makes the most of his time
having to work with Nolan
In their cell, Hartley asks Nolan about his father, because he knew that Nolan’s dad
was a police captain
so he wonders how that a police captain’s son, would go on to become a criminal
Nolan says that his dad was a jerk, who cared more about his work than he did his own son
When he believed that Nolan lost a beloved watch of his, the man didn’t talk to him
for a year
until he discovered it was hidden behind some paperwork
The guys enact their plan when Nolan throws a bar of soap into a cleaning solution, and
throws it into a machine, to create an explosion
In the ensuing chaos, the men fight off the guards before making their way to a chopper
using a badge Nolan swiped off a guard when the man attacked Hartley
Nolan makes it onto the chopper, while Hartley runs across the bridge as the guards blow
it up
As Hartley tries to climb up the bridge, Nolan fires the chopper’s machine guns
He starts flying away until Hartley manages to climb up, and jump into the chopper
The guards attempt to fire a missile at them, but Hartley manages to have it, fly through
the chopper, and hit a mountain instead
They then make their getaway
The Bishop is keeping an agent captive in his office, until she uses his computer to
send a decrypted message to Urvashi
to inform her that Hartley and Nolan are on the loose, as well as an invitation to Sotto
Voce’s party
The agent trips an alarm, but the responding agent is knocked out by Bishop
She threatens the first agent to tell a lie, about what happened or she will get to his
loved ones, and reveal his darkest secrets to them
Nolan gets help from a contact, Tambwe
to pick him and Hartley up and take them on a plane to Sotto Voce’s place in Valencia
he comes up with a plan to get into Voce’s safe, which only opens with his thumbprint
and facial recognition software
which Nolan is prepared for with his own tech
The guys show up at the party, which is a masquerade ball, so they can get by undetected
Bishop is there already, so Hartley dances with her, to avoid drawing negative attention
Voce spots them, and decides to cut in out of jealousy
Nolan swipes a glass containing Voce’s thumbprint
the two find the safe but are found by Urvashi
who holds a gun to them, and orders Hartley to arrest Nolan, if he really is on the side
of the law
Hartley disarms Urvashi before, he and Nolan get inside the safe and lock it
Bishop has somehow already made her way inside, and fights the men for the egg, until Voce
comes in
She turns out to be in league with Bishop, and they have Hartley and Nolan knocked out
and taken captive
she interrogates Hartley with electric cables, for the whereabouts of the third egg
Voce nearly strangles Hartley, because he thought that they are friends, but Nolan relents
and says, that the egg is in a pyramid in Cairo
When it looks like, Voce and Bishop are about to head off together, he collapses after she
spiked his drink, leaving her to get away
Voce comes to moments later but has his vision impaired
He fires at Hartley and Nolan, and they become free from their cuffs
The guys try to escape, but end up in the bullfighting arena outside
Hartley gets knocked around a couple of times, and Voce tries to shoot at them again
but he is knocked out by the bull, before the guys flee
The two make it onto a train, where Nolan admits he lied about the third egg’s location
Hartley nearly throws him off the train until he relents and pulls him back in
He then tells Nolan about his father, who was a con man, that just disappeared from
his life when he was 13
Nolan then tells Hartley a little history about the third egg
It was recovered by a nazi art collector named Rudolph Zeich
and after stashing away all the stolen nazi artifacts, the egg remained hidden
Nolan later, found out that the watch that his father loved so much was actually a key,
to finding the safe where the egg is kept
The guys go to Argentina, where they find a passageway to a huge vault containing loads
of stolen artifacts
After they find the egg, Bishop arrives along with Urvashi and her team of agents
A shootout ensues, which leads to a chase through the caves in old cars
Bishop and Urvashi, struggle for the egg during the chase, but Nolan manages to get it back
The three ride their car out of the cave and over a waterfall
Nolan grabs the egg and starts to leave, but he can’t find Hartley
Not wanting to let him die, Nolan attempts to go into the water to save him, but he turns
out to be fine
Bishop swims to shore, but when it looks like Hartley is about to arrest her, they instead
kiss
They then reveal that Hartley was working with Bishop the whole time
as they are a couple who have been planning the egg heist from the beginning, and used
Nolan to lead them to the third egg
They leave him cuffed to a tree before making their getaway
Hartley and Bishop go to Cairo, where the billionaire is hosting his daughter’s wedding
presenting her not only with the three eggs, but also a special musical performance from
Ed Sheeran
Urvashi and her agents crash the party to arrest the billionaire, and Ed because he
tried to fight guards
while Hartley and Bishop get away quietly
6 months later, The couple is found on a boat by Nolan
He informs them that he tipped off Urvashi about the couple’s scheme, and she has their
whole $300 million steal frozen in their accounts
Nolan offers them a chance to team up with him on another bigger score, or he will leave
them to be arrested
Hartley and Bishop reluctantly agree
Urvashi and her agents arrive too late and find neither of them
She goes back to her office and issues a red notice on all three criminals
The three then arrive in Paris to the location of their next big score, the Louvre
