How to steal a famous jewel

Okay, dudes, now that we know WHAT the jewel could be, we need your help figuring out HOW to get our hands on it. It’s going to be heavily guarded, wherever it is.   Some of the jewels you mentioned have been stolen before. Can you find out a little bit about those thefts? Like, do we need to go buy grappling hooks or invest in some nanotechno electronics? And should we be worried about curses, like the one supposedly on the Hope Diamond?  

Anything you come up with could help us out!

I sugest you look up the most expensive and rare diamond in the world or something close.Then find the museum and memorize the map and check out th real museum the distract the security like getting a famous painting and threaten to destroy it kinda like in the Janus hq but while someone is doing that someone hacks into the security sensors  and cameras but remember to wear all black including masks glove and black boots etc...
And have someone outside ready to pick you up.Janus Wolf

Dan, like always, you need a distraction. :) Have Jonah Wizard rap outside the place where they're keeping the Diamond and sneak your way in. Have Sinead (if she's not too busy) invent some kind of device that is remote control and you can press a button and shut off the security alarms and cameras.

Hope it helps :) Can't wait to see what happens!

Alrighty, I did some research. I really do believe it is the Golden Jubilee Diamond located in Thailand. Specifically in the Grand Palace in Bangkok. Construction began May 6 1782. Now for some good stuff about the place. First it's a major tourist attraction and is a museum. Well parts of it its. So getting into the place wouldn't be too hard. Plus the royal family does not live there. Lastly, it's right next to the Chao Phraya river. So there is one possible way of escape. Also the entire place is not connected. This is what i found so far, but i do believe using a fake will probably help. I hope this helped.

Dan, all of us are cahills. we can solve this. we need a distraction , a decoder (if theres maximum security), gadgets (guns as defense grappling hooks or helicopters to escape), and good fighters. thats what I would recommend, use all these branch tips and make them into a whole plan (because youre a madrigal)

Hey,Dan!!

I think the diamond is Golden Jubilee Diamond! Right now it is in Berlin Swiss bank transported from South Africa. It weighs at least 101 gm. Oh yeah you would probably need grappling hook. And ask the Ekat HQ for nano techs. Well I am kinda working on how to break into it. Well I will do it soon.

Just walk in. The guards would be distracted by your awesomeness (or mine if you wanna take me alongSmiley) and have Amy or someone go in and take it. Nevermind the alarm, just kick it. And if that doesn't work kick all the guards in the face!!! Lucian CrestYes, I'm a Lucian.. And I'm proud of it!!

Well, I can't help you much because I need the layout or blueprints of the Royal Thai Palace and information like if tourists can see the crown jewels in person.  Here is a list of some things that may or may not help and what to use some of the things for.  A double disguise for each person including gloves, a cubic zirconias to replace the Golden Jubilee once stolen (must be as close a copy as possible), a way to make the power in the entire palace go off so that you can get past lasers, security camaras, and guards, knock out gas or something to disable any guards, a way to get past the case that protects the crown jewels, and tools of, and a plan of, escape.  You must have a disguise because you are now classified as worldclass theives, you need to make it look like you dropped the Golden Jubilee during escape (drop the cubic zirconias), disable the alarms, disable the guards (preferably without killing them), get past the case protecting the crown jewels (perhaps a handheld laser glass cutter?), grab the Jubilee, escape, and while doing so "accidentally" drop the "Golden Jubilee".  Once you have it try to run tests to make sure that you didn't steal a copy instead of the real thing. (You don't want to repeat the Medusa incident.)

First off, I think you should buy grappling hooks, just in case, you know. You guys might need help from Hamilton as well because, you know, that grappling hooks and stuff.. I don't think you should be worried about curses. I think Sinead should like invent some nanotechno electronics, as you said. It might help you know. :))

ACTUALLY WORKS!!!

This is how u steal a jewle... dude
First research as much as you can about the security about the place so you know the soft spots
Then U need a distraction to get people away from the jewel. Yes, steal the jewel when there are other people near, so that the stealing isnt accused on YOU if u get caught. 
Then, while the other person is distracting, stand behind the jewel.. if you cant stand behind it then stand on a corner.
Then, knowing the soft spots navigate your hand over the jewel like ur reaching in fron tof the jewel.Make sure there a fake replacement in your hand.
Then, as you pull ur hand back, grab the jewel with your pinkie and release the fake one from your thumb and your index finger.
But if the decoy slips when you putit in the real spot... just say it was an accident and pretend its the real one and put it.
Also make sure you wear rain gloves..... not plastic cause then it look even more suspicouis..
And for fun wear a wig so that if someone sees ou and they report you, they have a different description from what u really look like....
If u include this in a book i would love it!!!!! thx!
 

When you least expext it expect it 

But if you expect it to come it wont

Dont Trust Anything When You Most Need It

Unless you prevent it from gettting to you
