After bringing in the sound engineers who had sabotaged her premiere,
00:04
Brittany made Grandma Jones promise that only Lily would work with her from now on.
00:08
And Grandma gave Jason what she thought was a suitable punishment, house arrest.
00:13
Before he left, Kevin told the Jones family,
00:16
Maybe you should get someone to look into this further.
00:19
The sarcasm in his voice wasn't lost on them and it showed on their faces.
00:24
With Grandma Jones giving him a very dirty look,
00:27
Kevin slowly walked out of the mansion.
00:29
Lily trotted out of the front door right behind him and said,
00:32
Kevin, wait a second.
00:34
What's the matter, my love?
00:36
Kevin asked with a smile.
00:38
Lily blushed a little when Kevin called her that.
00:40
She gathered herself and asked,
00:42
Kevin, tell me honestly.
00:44
Did you already know the truth before you came here?
00:47
And how do you know Brittany?
00:49
Why did she call you Mr. Williams?
00:51
After hearing Lily's last question,
00:54
Kevin raised an eyebrow.
00:56
With a mischievous smile, he replied,
00:58
Don't tell me you're jealous.
01:01
No, I'm not.
01:03
Please tell me the truth.
01:05
Lily didn't know why, but she couldn't look directly into Kevin's eyes.
01:09
Kevin smiled, shook his head and said gently,
01:12
That's enough. I won't tease you anymore.
01:15
To tell you the truth, Brittany and I went to school together.
01:18
If you were classmates, then why did she call you Mr. Williams?
01:22
And why did she come over and ask if you were okay with her decision?
01:26
Lily surged Kevin's eyes, hoping to see the truth.
01:29
I have no idea.
01:31
Maybe it's because I'm so charming?
01:33
Kevin answered with a shrug.
01:35
However, before Lily could press the issue any further,
01:38
Kevin's phone suddenly rang.
01:40
Without looking at the caller ID, Kevin said right away,
01:43
It must be my boss looking for me.
01:45
I have to head to work. Take care of yourself.
01:48
Kevin didn't give Lily a chance to ask any more questions.
01:51
He just turned around and left.
01:53
Kevin walked pretty far from the Jones mansion before he took out his phone again.
01:57
He saw that it was Phoebe calling.
01:59
Slightly confused, Kevin dialed her number.
02:02
Hello, Ms. Anderson. Sorry about the delay getting back to you.
02:05
Is there anything I can help with?
02:07
Kevin, I really need your help. Do you have the time?
02:10
Phoebe sounded anxious.
02:12
I think I can pull myself away from work.
02:14
Where are you? Kevin asked straightforwardly.
02:17
I'm at the store. I'll be waiting for you at the door when you get here.
02:20
Phoebe replied.
02:22
She wanted to make sure Kevin got a better welcome than last time.
02:25
After hanging up, Kevin waved down a taxi and got to Anderson Antiques in half an hour.
02:31
As he paid the fare, he felt something in the pit of his stomach.
02:35
What was it? He wondered.
02:37
As soon as Phoebe saw Kevin, she immediately grabbed him by the arm and ushered him through the front door.
02:43
As they walked toward the middle of the room,
02:46
they could hear at least 10 of the local antique shop owners arguing loudly.
02:51
This is definitely fake.
02:53
Then another one said,
02:55
I'd bet everything I own. This painting is definitely authentic.
02:59
Then a third one responded,
03:01
You don't know what you're talking about. Just look at the frame.
03:05
There's no way this is genuine.
03:08
Kevin squeezed through the crowd and saw a man watching all of this with a distraught look on his face.
03:14
It was Phoebe's father, Truman Anderson.
03:17
He was examining a landscape painting very attentively.
03:21
Uncle Truman, you've been looking at that painting for so long now. What's your opinion?
03:27
When Kevin heard the pleasant voice, he looked around and saw a familiar face, Matilda Jones.
03:33
Kevin, what are you doing here? Matilda asked curiously.
03:37
Before Kevin could say anything, Phoebe turned to Truman and asked,
03:41
Dad, what do you think? Do you want me to ask another appraiser to take a look?
03:46
Truman knew more about art history than almost anyone in Chicago.
03:50
If even he couldn't identify it, how could anyone else do better?
03:54
Just then, the man who was trying to sell them the painting asked nervously,
03:58
Mr. Anderson, can't you see that this is an authentic landscape? We need a decision right away.
04:05
Please don't be impatient, Truman replied.
04:09
This certainly looks like a 17th century Dutch landscape.
04:13
However, I'm not familiar with the artist, so it's difficult to come to a conclusion.
04:18
The material looks authentic and I can even see the proper copper and iron pigments.
04:23
He continued and then paused.
04:25
My instincts tells me that this is from the Dutch Golden Age, but I don't recognize the artist.
04:31
I just can't say it with certainty. Something's not right.
04:36
So you're saying that my painting's a forgery, the man said angrily.
04:40
I think it might be, Truman replied. He just couldn't give a definite appraisal.
04:46
The other experts in the room mumbled in agreement.
04:49
Mr. Anderson must know what he's talking about.
04:52
While they were all discussing the painting, Kevin slowly walked up and asked,
04:56
May I take a look?
04:58
One of them spoke up and rudely asked Kevin,
05:00
What are you doing? Do you think you know more than one of Chicago's leading experts?
05:05
You're just going to make a fool of yourself.
05:07
Matilda heard all these men scoffing at Kevin and looked over to see his reaction.
05:12
She didn't know him well, but what she did know was that at Grandma Jones's birthday party,
05:17
he had been able to appraise an 18th century brooch at a glance.
05:21
He had definitely made an impression on her.
05:24
But this was different. Even Mr. Anderson thought that the painting was probably a fake.
05:29
If Kevin made a fool of himself, she might open herself up to ridicule too, especially by her family.
05:35
Truman looked at Kevin in surprise and then asked,
05:38
Aren't you Dorothy Jones's son-in-law?
05:41
Phoebe interrupted awkwardly.
05:43
Dad, this is the antique appraiser that I brought in as a consultant.
05:48
When the onlookers heard this, they all started laughing.
05:51
Ms. Anderson actually hired this moron as a consultant?
05:55
One of them jeered.
05:57
Truman looked at his daughter and let out a slow sigh.
06:00
He'd never seen Kevin before, but he had heard a lot of rumors about him.
06:04
It was the usual gossip that Jason had been spreading around amongst the members of the Jones family.
06:10
According to them, Kevin was useless, and they all hoped that he and Lily would get a divorce as soon as possible.
06:16
But he trusted his daughter.
06:18
After all, she had been doing a fantastic job with the store.
06:22
If she had thought that he had something to contribute, Truman was willing to listen.
06:27
Please be careful.
06:29
If it turns out to be a forgery, we don't want to owe this man anything for damages, Truman said.
06:35
Don't worry, sir, Kevin replied as he started to study the painting.
06:40
The atmosphere in the room changed.
06:42
Everyone watched patiently to see if Kevin would make a fool of himself.
06:46
Some of them were wondering if Phoebe was still too young to be in such a prominent position in the company.
06:51
Phoebe started to get nervous.
06:53
Although she was very confident in Kevin, she wondered if he was making a mistake.
06:59
After all, her father had just given his own opinion.
07:02
After only half a minute, Kevin's eyes flashed and he stood up straight with an astonished look on his face.
07:09
The mumbling and comments from the onlookers started up again.
07:13
They were all wondering how he could have come to a decision so quickly.
07:17
But Kevin didn't pay attention to them.
07:19
He turned around and looked at Phoebe and asked,
07:22
How much does he want for it?
07:24
Before she had a chance to reply, the man said hurriedly,
07:27
200,000.
07:29
That sounds about right, Kevin nodded slightly.
07:32
The rudest of the onlookers said loudly,
07:35
Who does he think he is?
07:37
It's not worth 50 bucks.
07:39
Mr. Anderson already said it was a fake.
07:42
Matilda was disappointed to see this.
07:45
Truman let out another sigh and looked at his daughter glumly.
07:48
So this is your expert?
07:51
If there hadn't been so many people around, he would have scolded his daughter.
07:55
She was actually paying this guy $150,000 a year?
08:00
Sure, they could afford it, but he still didn't like to waste money.
08:04
When Phoebe heard this, she felt awful.
08:07
How could Kevin have come to a decision so quickly?
08:10
Did he really know anything?
08:13
She was starting to have her doubts.
08:15
Truman looked directly at Kevin and asked him bluntly,
08:18
Can you tell me why this thing is worth $200,000?
08:23
Kevin knew that the painting was worth ten times that amount,
08:26
but he hesitated to say it out loud.
08:29
Instead, he asked Truman,
08:31
Have you ever heard of someone named Vermeer?
08:34
Truman was stunned by this question.
08:37
He answered with a hint of indignation in his voice.
08:40
Of course I have.
08:42
One of the finest Dutch masters,
08:45
but he only painted two landscapes in his lifetime.
08:48
What you're suggesting is impossible.
08:51
How could this possibly be a Vermeer?
08:54
Truman asked him.
08:56
The antique dealers surrounding them all had very puzzled expressions,
09:00
not knowing what the two of them were talking about.
09:03
Kevin explained,
09:04
Look closely at the style, the artist's use of light and shadow.
09:09
There's a distinctive depth to this piece,
09:12
and the pigments match Vermeer's preferences, too.
09:16
You can't help but feel some emotion as you look at this landscape.
09:20
But he hardly ever painted landscapes.
09:23
Truman responded excitedly.
09:25
Kevin interrupted him and appealed to his experience.
09:28
Mr. Anderson, take another look, and I'm sure you'll agree.
09:33
This is a lost Vermeer landscape. I'm certain of it.
09:37
Truman looked at Kevin in surprise.
09:39
If this young man was right, this was an extraordinary discovery.
09:44
After hesitating for a moment,
09:46
he went back to the painting and took another look.
09:49
This time he pulled a magnifying glass out of his suit pocket.
09:53
Less than a minute later, Truman practically jumped up and down.
09:57
He shouted,
09:58
Mr. Landau, please arrange for this gentleman's payment.
10:02
The antique dealers who had been watching this spectacle with great interest
10:06
couldn't believe what they had just witnessed.
10:09
But seeing Mr. Anderson's excited reaction,
10:12
they felt very awkward that they had been so rude to Kevin.
10:15
Matilda looked at Kevin in disbelief.
10:18
She thought to herself,
10:19
how could he have identified this painting so easily?
10:23
Phoebe wasn't quite sure what to think.
10:25
She asked her father,
10:27
Dad, are you sure?
10:29
Of course I'm sure.
10:31
Hurry up before the seller changes his mind.
10:34
He whispered hurriedly in her ear.
10:36
The man seemed to be anxious to complete the sale and leave.
10:40
Fine, then go ahead and pay me.
10:42
I still have other things to do today,
10:44
and I've already wasted a lot of time here.
10:46
Kevin laughed to himself.
10:48
The man had no idea what he was giving up for only $200,000.
10:53
He obviously knew nothing about art,
10:55
just some guy making a quick buck.
10:58
So how did someone like that get hold of such a valuable piece of art?
11:02
Kevin really wanted to know.
