Success

The way is clear

You relieve the servant of his keyring as he totters to the lavatory, make a plaster mold of it while he's indisposed, and slide the original back into his pocket when he returns to his friends. Your mark's doors and locks are nothing to you now.


Failure

"What're you after, eh?"

He catches your hand in his pocket; perhaps you approached him a few drinks too early? At least your false-beard ensures he doesn't recognise you. And your drunken act defuses the situation enough to keep the Constables out of it.
