[00:21.44]The temptation to steal is greater than ever before especially in large shops. [00:29.15]A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings. [00:38.36]One Monday, [00:39.97]there were fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in, [00:45.22]so it was easier for the detective to watch her. [00:50.33]The woman first bought a few small articles. [00:55.08]After a little time, she chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop [01:01.78]and handed it to an assistant who wrapped it up for her as quickly as possible. [01:08.99]Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out of the shop without paying. [01:16.63]When she was arrested, [01:18.96]the detective found out that the shop assistant was her daughter. [01:24.74]The girl 'gave' her mother a free dress once a week!
