That reminds me of the good old days in college in Puerto Rico. Back then, I was staying with my uncle in Mayaguez (where the only engineering school was back then) and he had a 67 VW van with the middle seat removed. A friend of mine that was staying at the school dormitories asked me if I could help him go get a small fridge from another friend of his on the other side of town. I asked my uncle to borrow the van and he said ok. So, that night we departed in the van to the other side of town and when we get there, the "friend" was not anywhere to be found. Some other guy that lived at the apartment building told my friend the his "friend" was gone for the weekend and he did not leave a key to the apartment on the third floor. Somehow, the two of them came up with a scheme to get into the apartment. It turns out that in the back of the building there was like a recessed area from the top to the bottom of the concrete building with staggered concrete shelves on each side pointing left and right for the "window type" A/C units for the apartments. According to the other guy, the A/C units just sat on the shelves and that they could climb the shelves and get to the third floor and simply push the A/C unit in and catch it before it dropped on the floor and get in to the "friend's" apartment. Apparently this had been done before. Then unlock the door from the inside and we could get the fridge and go down the stairs with it.
At that time I clarified that "I was just the driver".
Regardless, my friend and the other guy proceeded to climb the alternating A/C shelves and stopped at the second story and just sat there. Then they motioned at me to approach to the base and whispered to me to go to the second floor and knock on the apartment to the left and warn the occupants that if they heard any strange noises to not worry, and that it was just their neighbors trying to get into their apartment because they got locked out.
So, I followed the instructions but when I knocked at the door of the apartment, nobody showed up. I went back to the back of the building and reported there is nobody in that apartment. they continued whispering assuring me that there were people there and to try again.
I went back up again and knocked on the door and this time a guy with a scared look answered and there was also girl with a scared look too peeking from behind a wall. I delivered the message and went back to my "observer position" and watched those guys finish the operation while two scared faces were looking out the window at us from the second floor.
We finally got the fridge in the van and I got to ask my friend how they knew that there were people inside the apartment. He told me that they could see the couple through the window having sex.
After that I told my uncle to never let me borrow the van.
