Chapter 13 takes us into the shadowed halls of occupied Paris, 1943, where stolen masterpieces hang like captured souls on the walls of Nazi looters. In "The Gallery of Ghosts," we follow our quantum thief as she infiltrates the private collection of Oberführer Klaus Richter—a man who collects art the way his regime collects countries: without understanding, only possession.

Disguised as the elegant Mademoiselle Dubois, art dealer and collaborator, our protagonist navigates a world where Monet's water lilies have been torn from their frames in Giverny, where Picasso's works adorn the walls of their victims' murderers, and where a priceless Cézanne self-portrait waits in a hidden safe—stolen from the Bernheim family before they vanished into the night and fog of the camps.

But this isn't just another heist. In Nazi-occupied Paris, stealing back stolen art becomes an act of resistance, each recovered masterpiece a small victory against tyranny. When champagne flows with blood money and culture itself becomes a weapon of war, what does it mean to be a thief? And when the system itself is criminal, is stealing justice or just another crime?

Tonight's question: When art becomes a casualty of war, who are the real thieves—those who steal it, or those who steal it back?

Join us as we explore the quantum complexities of wartime morality, where every heist is a rescue mission and every theft an act of remembrance.
