Margaret meets with Florian and says that the two friends are now the New FBI: Florian Bates Investigations. They will be private detectives. Florian warns her not to tell anyone that he works for the FBI. (When he spoke to Rivers and Douglas, he insisted on being able to tell Margaret because she is his best friend and he refused to lie to her.) Now, Margaret thinks they will make a good team. She has the people skills, and he can concentrate on TOAST. Margaret says that their first case is to find her birth parents. Florian is worried that Margaret will learn unpleasant things, but Margaret insists she needs to know. He agrees and asks her to go with him to the museum first to investigate.

Margaret asks what they’re looking for, but Florian doesn’t know; he just has a hunch that they missed something. The museum is crowded with people wanting to see the stolen paintings. Margaret and Florian agree that someone had to have given the thieves inside information. Agent Rivers is also at the museum, but Florian must pretend not to know him. The two friends do not understand why the thieves needed a copyist who changed his identity.
