00:00After bringing in the sound engineers who had sabotaged her premiere,

00:04Brittany made Grandma Jones promise that only Lily would work with her from now on.

00:08And Grandma gave Jason what she thought was a suitable punishment, house arrest.

00:13Before he left, Kevin told the Jones family,

00:16Maybe you should get someone to look into this further.

00:19The sarcasm in his voice wasn't lost on them and it showed on their faces.

00:24With Grandma Jones giving him a very dirty look,

00:27Kevin slowly walked out of the mansion.

00:29Lily trotted out of the front door right behind him and said,

00:32Kevin, wait a second.

00:34What's the matter, my love?

00:36Kevin asked with a smile.

00:38Lily blushed a little when Kevin called her that.

00:40She gathered herself and asked,

00:42Kevin, tell me honestly.

00:44Did you already know the truth before you came here?

00:47And how do you know Brittany?

00:49Why did she call you Mr. Williams?

00:51After hearing Lily's last question,

00:54Kevin raised an eyebrow.

00:56With a mischievous smile, he replied,

00:58Don't tell me you're jealous.

01:01No, I'm not.

01:03Please tell me the truth.

01:05Lily didn't know why, but she couldn't look directly into Kevin's eyes.

01:09Kevin smiled, shook his head and said gently,

01:12That's enough. I won't tease you anymore.

01:15To tell you the truth, Brittany and I went to school together.

01:18If you were classmates, then why did she call you Mr. Williams?

01:22And why did she come over and ask if you were okay with her decision?

01:26Lily surged Kevin's eyes, hoping to see the truth.

01:29I have no idea.

01:31Maybe it's because I'm so charming?

01:33Kevin answered with a shrug.

01:35However, before Lily could press the issue any further,

01:38Kevin's phone suddenly rang.

01:40Without looking at the caller ID, Kevin said right away,

01:43It must be my boss looking for me.

01:45I have to head to work. Take care of yourself.

01:48Kevin didn't give Lily a chance to ask any more questions.

01:51He just turned around and left.

01:53Kevin walked pretty far from the Jones mansion before he took out his phone again.

01:57He saw that it was Phoebe calling.

01:59Slightly confused, Kevin dialed her number.

02:02Hello, Ms. Anderson. Sorry about the delay getting back to you.

02:05Is there anything I can help with?

02:07Kevin, I really need your help. Do you have the time?

02:10Phoebe sounded anxious.

02:12I think I can pull myself away from work.

02:14Where are you? Kevin asked straightforwardly.

02:17I'm at the store. I'll be waiting for you at the door when you get here.

02:20Phoebe replied.

02:22She wanted to make sure Kevin got a better welcome than last time.

02:25After hanging up, Kevin waved down a taxi and got to Anderson Antiques in half an hour.

02:31As he paid the fare, he felt something in the pit of his stomach.

02:35What was it? He wondered.

02:37As soon as Phoebe saw Kevin, she immediately grabbed him by the arm and ushered him through the front door.

02:43As they walked toward the middle of the room,

02:46they could hear at least 10 of the local antique shop owners arguing loudly.

02:51This is definitely fake.

02:53Then another one said,

02:55I'd bet everything I own. This painting is definitely authentic.

02:59Then a third one responded,

03:01You don't know what you're talking about. Just look at the frame.

03:05There's no way this is genuine.

03:08Kevin squeezed through the crowd and saw a man watching all of this with a distraught look on his face.

03:14It was Phoebe's father, Truman Anderson.

03:17He was examining a landscape painting very attentively.

03:21Uncle Truman, you've been looking at that painting for so long now. What's your opinion?

03:27When Kevin heard the pleasant voice, he looked around and saw a familiar face, Matilda Jones.

03:33Kevin, what are you doing here? Matilda asked curiously.

03:37Before Kevin could say anything, Phoebe turned to Truman and asked,

03:41Dad, what do you think? Do you want me to ask another appraiser to take a look?

03:46Truman knew more about art history than almost anyone in Chicago.

03:50If even he couldn't identify it, how could anyone else do better?

03:54Just then, the man who was trying to sell them the painting asked nervously,

03:58Mr. Anderson, can't you see that this is an authentic landscape? We need a decision right away.

04:05Please don't be impatient, Truman replied.

04:09This certainly looks like a 17th century Dutch landscape.

04:13However, I'm not familiar with the artist, so it's difficult to come to a conclusion.

04:18The material looks authentic and I can even see the proper copper and iron pigments.

04:23He continued and then paused.

04:25My instincts tells me that this is from the Dutch Golden Age, but I don't recognize the artist.

04:31I just can't say it with certainty. Something's not right.

04:36So you're saying that my painting's a forgery, the man said angrily.

04:40I think it might be, Truman replied. He just couldn't give a definite appraisal.

04:46The other experts in the room mumbled in agreement.

04:49Mr. Anderson must know what he's talking about.

04:52While they were all discussing the painting, Kevin slowly walked up and asked,

04:56May I take a look?

04:58One of them spoke up and rudely asked Kevin,

05:00What are you doing? Do you think you know more than one of Chicago's leading experts?

05:05You're just going to make a fool of yourself.

05:07Matilda heard all these men scoffing at Kevin and looked over to see his reaction.

05:12She didn't know him well, but what she did know was that at Grandma Jones's birthday party,

05:17he had been able to appraise an 18th century brooch at a glance.

05:21He had definitely made an impression on her.

05:24But this was different. Even Mr. Anderson thought that the painting was probably a fake.

05:29If Kevin made a fool of himself, she might open herself up to ridicule too, especially by her family.

05:35Truman looked at Kevin in surprise and then asked,

05:38Aren't you Dorothy Jones's son-in-law?

05:41Phoebe interrupted awkwardly.

05:43Dad, this is the antique appraiser that I brought in as a consultant.

05:48When the onlookers heard this, they all started laughing.

05:51Ms. Anderson actually hired this moron as a consultant?

05:55One of them jeered.

05:57Truman looked at his daughter and let out a slow sigh.

06:00He'd never seen Kevin before, but he had heard a lot of rumors about him.

06:04It was the usual gossip that Jason had been spreading around amongst the members of the Jones family.

06:10According to them, Kevin was useless, and they all hoped that he and Lily would get a divorce as soon as possible.

06:16But he trusted his daughter.

06:18After all, she had been doing a fantastic job with the store.

06:22If she had thought that he had something to contribute, Truman was willing to listen.

06:27Please be careful.

06:29If it turns out to be a forgery, we don't want to owe this man anything for damages, Truman said.

06:35Don't worry, sir, Kevin replied as he started to study the painting.

06:40The atmosphere in the room changed.

06:42Everyone watched patiently to see if Kevin would make a fool of himself.

06:46Some of them were wondering if Phoebe was still too young to be in such a prominent position in the company.

06:51Phoebe started to get nervous.

06:53Although she was very confident in Kevin, she wondered if he was making a mistake.

06:59After all, her father had just given his own opinion.

07:02After only half a minute, Kevin's eyes flashed and he stood up straight with an astonished look on his face.

07:09The mumbling and comments from the onlookers started up again.

07:13They were all wondering how he could have come to a decision so quickly.

07:17But Kevin didn't pay attention to them.

07:19He turned around and looked at Phoebe and asked,

07:22How much does he want for it?

07:24Before she had a chance to reply, the man said hurriedly,

07:27200,000.

07:29That sounds about right, Kevin nodded slightly.

07:32The rudest of the onlookers said loudly,

07:35Who does he think he is?

07:37It's not worth 50 bucks.

07:39Mr. Anderson already said it was a fake.

07:42Matilda was disappointed to see this.

07:45Truman let out another sigh and looked at his daughter glumly.

07:48So this is your expert?

07:51If there hadn't been so many people around, he would have scolded his daughter.

07:55She was actually paying this guy $150,000 a year?

08:00Sure, they could afford it, but he still didn't like to waste money.

08:04When Phoebe heard this, she felt awful.

08:07How could Kevin have come to a decision so quickly?

08:10Did he really know anything?

08:13She was starting to have her doubts.

08:15Truman looked directly at Kevin and asked him bluntly,

08:18Can you tell me why this thing is worth $200,000?

08:23Kevin knew that the painting was worth ten times that amount,

08:26but he hesitated to say it out loud.

08:29Instead, he asked Truman,

08:31Have you ever heard of someone named Vermeer?

08:34Truman was stunned by this question.

08:37He answered with a hint of indignation in his voice.

08:40Of course I have.

08:42One of the finest Dutch masters,

08:45but he only painted two landscapes in his lifetime.

08:48What you're suggesting is impossible.

08:51How could this possibly be a Vermeer?

08:54Truman asked him.

08:56The antique dealers surrounding them all had very puzzled expressions,

09:00not knowing what the two of them were talking about.

09:03Kevin explained,

09:04Look closely at the style, the artist's use of light and shadow.

09:09There's a distinctive depth to this piece,

09:12and the pigments match Vermeer's preferences, too.

09:16You can't help but feel some emotion as you look at this landscape.

09:20But he hardly ever painted landscapes.

09:23Truman responded excitedly.

09:25Kevin interrupted him and appealed to his experience.

09:28Mr. Anderson, take another look, and I'm sure you'll agree.

09:33This is a lost Vermeer landscape. I'm certain of it.

09:37Truman looked at Kevin in surprise.

09:39If this young man was right, this was an extraordinary discovery.

09:44After hesitating for a moment,

09:46he went back to the painting and took another look.

09:49This time he pulled a magnifying glass out of his suit pocket.

09:53Less than a minute later, Truman practically jumped up and down.

09:57He shouted,

09:58Mr. Landau, please arrange for this gentleman's payment.

10:02The antique dealers who had been watching this spectacle with great interest

10:06couldn't believe what they had just witnessed.

10:09But seeing Mr. Anderson's excited reaction,

10:12they felt very awkward that they had been so rude to Kevin.

10:15Matilda looked at Kevin in disbelief.

10:18She thought to herself,

10:19how could he have identified this painting so easily?

10:23Phoebe wasn't quite sure what to think.

10:25She asked her father,

10:27Dad, are you sure?

10:29Of course I'm sure.

10:31Hurry up before the seller changes his mind.

10:34He whispered hurriedly in her ear.

10:36The man seemed to be anxious to complete the sale and leave.

10:40Fine, then go ahead and pay me.

10:42I still have other things to do today,

10:44and I've already wasted a lot of time here.

10:46Kevin laughed to himself.

10:48The man had no idea what he was giving up for only $200,000.

10:53He obviously knew nothing about art,

10:55just some guy making a quick buck.

10:58So how did someone like that get hold of such a valuable piece of art?

11:02Kevin really wanted to know.
