Breaking In And Getting Caught

“I love these small town people, always so trusting,” Frank said to himself as he carefully opened the unlocked window on the first floor of the secluded farm house. “Such dumb hicks make my job so easy.”
Climbing silently into the dark room, he snapped on a small but powerful flashlight and surveyed the surroundings, pulling out a larg pillowcase from inside his coat. Moving quickly around the room, finding expensive antique silverware, credit cards and cash.
“Not bad for five minues work.” Frank thought to himself happily as he was about to leave through the same window.
All at once he was interrupted by the sudden flash of a light being turned on and the sound of a man’s voice.
“Who’s there?”
Frank froze for a split second before looking over his shoulder to see a man of about forty-five standing in the doorway.
“Hey!” the man shouted. “What do you think your doing?”
Frank turned to face him and pulled out the .38 he kept in his jacket just in case. “I suggest you shut up and do as your told and nobody has to get hurt.”
Coming up behind the man, Frank saw the outline of a woman.
“What’s going on David?” the woman asked as she peaked over his shoulder.
“Your Mrs I presume…David?” Frank smiled. “How about you both come in here with your hands up.”
David and his wife Molly slowly did as they were told.
“What are you going to do with us?” Molly asked quietly, trying to stop herself from shaking despite the fear she felt.
Frank ignored her question. “Anyone else in the house?”
“No.” David replied quickly.
Frank smiled at how quickly and unconvincingly he answered. “Between you and me, I hate surprises so if that’s not true, I may accidently shoot anyone who happens to be in the house with you two.”
The couple didn’t say anything, only looked at the gun he held in his hand.
Frank shook his head knowing that now they’d seen his face, he had to come up with a solution so they wouldn’t say anything when he was gone.
“Mum? Dad?” another voice echoed just outside the room.
Frank waited as a young girl of around sixteen came into the doorway. He smiled as he glanced back at the couple who’s faces were now white as a sheet.
“What’s your name little girl?” Frank asked as he motioned her in to stand with her parents. “Join the party.”
“Meg.” The girl stammered as she saw the gun and quickly moved to be with her parents.
“So David….Meg and……” Frank waited for a reply.
“Molly.” she answered him.
“Any more surprises?” Frank said. “Last chance…”
“She’s our only daughter,” Molly said quietly. “There’s just the three of us in the house.”
Frank looked at the three of them and smiled, an idea came into his head. “Have you got a camer or a video?”
“Yes,” David answered. “We have a digital camera and a hand held video camera.”
“Why don’t you go and make yourself useful Molly and go and get it,” Frank said sternly. “Any funny business and the next thing you’ll see will be your daughter’s brains splattered all oveer your nice clean walls.”
Molly nodded and quickly ran and grabbed the video camera from the other room, handing it to Frank before moving back to be with her family.
Frank turned it on and checked the battery life and began rewinding the tape that was already inside.
“Take off all your clothes,” Frank said as he pointed the gun at them. “Hurry up or I pull the trigger.”
All three of them began to reluctanly remove their pj’s, stopping once they were all standing completely naked.
Frank looked over each of them.
