Scene opens with Hercules and Wu Tang planning to steal that artwork.
Wu Tang
So, what kind of artwork are we going to steal today, Hercules?
Hercules
Ah, today we are going after a masterpiece called 'Portrait of Dr. Gachet' by Vincent van Gogh.
Wu Tang
Tell me more about it.
Hercules
Sure! This painting is one of the most revered works by van Gogh. It depicts Dr. Paul Gachet, a doctor and artist, who took care of van Gogh during his final months of life.
Wu Tang
Why is it so famous?
Hercules
Well, there are two versions of the portrait. One was sold for a record-breaking price in an auction, making it the world's most expensive painting at that time. The other version is now displayed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
Wu Tang
What's the story behind the painting?
Hercules
Van Gogh painted this during a turbulent time in his life. He was experiencing a mental breakdown and had even cut off part of his ear. After seeking treatment in an asylum, he ended up staying with Dr. Gachet in Auvers-sur-Oise.
Wu Tang
Did van Gogh like Dr. Gachet?
Hercules
At first, van Gogh had reservations about Dr. Gachet's abilities, but they soon became close friends. Van Gogh even described Gachet as a true friend and someone who resembles him physically and mentally.
Hercules
This painting is just one of many that van Gogh created during his stay with Dr. Gachet. In fact, he was incredibly productive and painted more than seventy artworks.
Wu Tang
Wow, that's impressive! Could you tell me more about the painting itself?
Hercules
Certainly! In the painting, Dr. Gachet is shown resting his right elbow on a red table, with his head in his hand. There are also two yellow books and a purple medicinal herb called foxglove on the table. The plant foxglove is used in the treatment of certain heart conditions, which may symbolize Gachet's role as a physician.
Just as Hercules is passionately describing the beauty of the painting, Bob, the police officer, appears on the scene.
Bob
Hercules, you're up to no good again! I've caught you in the act.
Wu Tang
Oh no, it's Bob! I better make a run for it!
Hercules
Wait, Wu Tang! We need to go!
Wu Tang
(Mumbling) I can't believe the boss got us into this mess again.
Wu Tang complains about Hercules as they both hurriedly escape from the scene.
