Little Things

Synopsis

Four-year old Chloe sees a man shoplifting and asks her mum if she too can 'shop like the man.' Mum-distracted and on the phone agrees, only aware of what has been going on when a Security Guard stops them at the check-out. The Security Guard asks Chloe to identify the man she was copying, but preferring the dapper thief to the greasy Security Guard she pretends he has gone. As Chloe and embarrassed mum leave the store, the thief drops a chocolate bar from his coat as a reward for Chloe's help.
