Born without much common sense Nikki made for the perfect fall guy in Rikki and his gang's next caper which was going to be a heist at the city's only jewelry store.

When the cops got there by the time they dealt with all his foolishness they would have extended time to get the fuck out of dodge.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
