THE FIRST RULE OF CAPERS:
NEVER, EVER, EVER, TELL A WOMAN!!!!
If you are pulling a caper, whether it's tax-evasion, robbing a bank, kidnapping a diplomat, embezzling the pension fund at work, or just good old-fashioned murder... never, ever, ever tell a woman!
Girlfriends become ex-girlfriends. Wives become ex-wives. Many of them have an axe to grind.
