I've taken something from you guys. You think they're angels, right? But when you guys aren't looking, they're all up in your closet. My baby, my baby's perfect. You know, he's always been a good kid. I don't know about those other kids, but I know my kid. He would never do anything like that to me. I think one out of four is low. That's what this one says. You got to think that most of them are lying on grises. So, it's probably more like 50%. Yeah. Brittany, you are on the voice to skies or good morning. Oh, I don't need the voices, guys. But okay. You want to have to keep

my halo. I'm starting off by saying I only do this when she tells me I can, but my mom off is putting one of my bills, most of the time I phone bill. And when she does, I know her credit card number by heart. And I'll pay like four of them. And your mom won't know that you're using her credit card to pay your bills. Well, my mom's financially, she's pretty well all financially. So, no, she doesn't unless it's like, you know, like if I pay my rent or something, maybe she'll look at this. But don't you think that even if you asked her for the cash, she'd give it to you? But I mean, she'll give me the 30 degree about it. She'll give me like, I mean, because I work, and I make enough money to pay my bills, but the thing with my phone bill, it's in my name, but we have a family plan. It's just me and her. So she'll offer to pay it, you know, because it hurts cell phone too. But no, how old are you? I'm actually 20. 20. Okay. And it is a family plan.

Yeah, in my name. My dad will pay my mom will pay. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, I love it. She said, you know, I got a job. I can cover that bill. It says on my mother's credit card name or number by heart. I use it. She never pays attention. Oh, she knows. Hey, Jamie, do me a favor. Will you hold on? Because you're going to be my final call? You're my closer. Okay. All right, hold on. What's that mean? Yeah, I understand. What do you just say? Final call. So you're going to tell me. Good morning, Emmy. Hi. Hi, you're on the voice, Disguiser. I have actually stolen two handles of vodka along with my mom's car to go to party. And then I hit a tree with my mom's car, go back into the driveway. And then she didn't notice for a week. And when she asked what happened, I told her that she must have done something that I didn't do it. She didn't believe that. I know, but then I had to blame my sister. You never took the fall for so you never admitted to it?

I never admitted to it. How old are you now? I'm 18. Oh, he's still 18. Okay. And how old is your sister? She's 20. And did she take the fall for you? Yeah, she did. Why did she do that? You owe her and she's going to cash in later on. She told me I owe her. So you stole your parents' vodka, you drank it, then wrapped your car around a tree and then blamed it on your sister. But what do you mean you owe her, but what? You're not going to. You don't think that she'll ever ask you that? That's why am I ever, she ever needs anything? You're sisters for life. You know that, right? It's the rest of your life. Yeah, she's going to dangle that over her head forever. And being the younger sister, you will always hear that story every Christmas, like eventually when it comes out and you all can laugh about it, it will come up every holiday of what you did. Sarah, you're on the voice disguise or good morning. Hello. How old are you? I'm 14. 14. All right. What are you

stealing from your folks? Pretty much mostly just like money, but sometimes I'll take a couple of six to something like booze. Yeah. Like what? Like she got vodka sometimes a wine beer. When do you sip it? Like every day they're not home? No, no, no, no. Like once a month, maybe. 14. Are most of your friends doing the same thing? A lot of them are. Oh, it scares me. And how much cash do you think you've stolen from them over the years? Not too much. It's like I live in a lot of places where you can go to eat. So I'll go grab a couple bucks sometimes to go like to eat somewhere. I found my parents' cash stash also. I'm probably younger than him. Yeah, I must have been because before I left for California. So I was probably seven. You're dipping in and I'm still money at seven. Yeah, man. I was going through her file cabinet chores and found a whole couple envelopes of cash. You realize that's one year from where your son is. Oh, that's terrible. Oh, well done. Oh, that's awful.

Then a year. Hey, dude, we did it into your cash jar. Man, I remember going and getting all these hostess cupcakes for all the kids on the street and dipping into that thing all the time. All the time. Next year, buddy. Good morning. I'm sure I ever stole from my parents all the kids. They were broke. Like my parents are so frugal with money that like everything was allocated. And like, I think even if I took a dollar out of my dad's wallet, he wouldn't notice. He would have been, you would have known because I just think that's the way they operate. There's very budgeted. How about y'all set? I think I did. I remember stealing one of my dad's beers and it tasting awful. Like thinking it was going to, you know, it's like one of those fancy kind or whatever. And I just remember it being horrible. But I remember stashing a couple of those in a backpack before leaving to go like hang out with my cheerleader friends or something. My sister was such. You had a girl with the beer in the backpack. Oh, Jen's here. And you take a two-on walkie's best.

No, they were like backs or something like that. My sister was such the rebel. And I think siblings naturally morph into something different than the other siblings. So yeah, I didn't. I was too scared to do anything. She'd all right. Well, my sister already cleaned the house. So there wasn't anything left to do. She hustled everything out of the house. I'm guessing my younger brother was that way too. I was too scared. I'm just like, when do you guys help me out? I stole from my parents at seven. No, I got a worse one than that even if you really want to go confess. Let's do it. I've told you about this one before though. Yeah. And again, I'm not proud of this. I would never do it now of course. But yeah, when I was in high school, my parents went away for vacation. I was just one of these dudes that went in their room. I had to see what was in the closet, what was in their drawers and stuff. And I went in there one day and I found a whole stash of marijuana, whole stash. So I took about half of it and sold it at school. No way. They did. You did? And it was like the foolproof plan. Because what are your parents going to do? They're going to go, you stole my weed. They're not going to admit to you. They never admit to it.

Yeah. So I sold it to a whole bunch of guys at school. And on Monday morning, I remember coming back to school and them all being mad at me because the weed didn't do anything because I've given them a headache. It was a really bad, really bad bad or something like that. So my plan back fired on me. But you thought you were going to be the cool kid. It was so foolproof. Like your parents are going to say. So you must have had exciting parents because I can't really think of anything more boring than going through my parents room. Oh no. I found my parents joy of sex book when I was that young. Oh, Harry, Harry, Harry. Illustrated 1970s. Yeah. Do you think that book has changed over the years to where it's all trimmed down now? I don't know. That'd be interesting to see. What is it? Because the 1970s version is just gross. I remember being shocked. I was pretty young. I shouldn't have been snooping around and I was like, what is that? God, they would close that room door and it was just like it was an open invitation call to you. I'm not allowed in there. Forget about this. I got to go in there to see what they're

trying to hide. Yeah. It's all sorts of stuff. There was weed. I found a gun. I don't even know we had in the house also. Really? Yeah. I never even searched for my Christmas presents. I was that I, you know, I knew it because I had my friends would go find theirs, but I never did that. Because I didn't want to be disappointed. I found mine by accident when I was like 12 and was so devastated that I could like I started crying and went down and confessed to them. Like I lost it. Like it's like 12 or 13 years old, far too old to be that affected by it. But it was something totally random that that I knew my parents kept in their closet. Was the hyperventilating crying? Yeah. That one. But I care. I mean, I can remember it. Pass out before you say anything. Almost feel the anxiety now, but I remember I was going into my parents' closet for something that I knew that they kept in there. Like I can, I don't remember what it was. Like whatever. Extra box of tissues. Something that I knew they kept in there. And I just remember opening the door and turning to the side where it is and seeing on the floor, like the shopping bag

and I could see the like the three things in there and freezing and panicking and then just starting to uncontrollably cry. I had to go downstairs and I had to go downstairs and tell them and I'm like, that's the kind of thing you run away from the house thinking that punishment is going to be so that I'll just run away for two weeks. Why do you get to the end of the yard? To retail the story apparently, I was more upset that I wouldn't be surprised. Like I wasn't upset that I found them and ruined their surprise. I felt I was upset that I ruined my own. You ripped off your own Chris. Yeah. Now why do I even get to get out of this? What he's been? Just going to get drunk at Christmas Eve. Hey Jamie, what are you stealing from your parents? No, it's what my stepdoller stole from me. Oh, okay. It's not a good tone. I don't like your tone. Yes, ma'am. I'm sitting up straight. Let's do it. Yes, ma'am. Can we have a ma'am? What do you got? Go ahead. You're on the voice to Skaiser. I woke up one morning to

and realized that what is my personal role? Yeah, I don't. An adult item was gone. An adult item was gone from the top night sandalore. Had you used that adult item before? I'll play. Have you used it since then? No. And how old is the stepdaughter? She was 17. Wow. It was gone and then about 30 minutes later, it reappeared. I know. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Hey. Oh, no. Did you confront her on a customer per item, please? Did that career after? Did you ever use that item with her dad? You're not after that, but before that, you didn't? Yes.
