Five stages that have you doling out a little citizen justice on a jerk sheriff, and his tyrannical regime.

2–2 - Jailbreak

Jailbreak

To Steal a Thief Don't wait around. Get your butt up that ladder before the sheriff appears.

To Steal a Thief Use the blue key on the left cage, and free the juggler. Take the metal ball he left behind.

To Steal a Thief Go back upstairs, avoid the sheriff, and climb the ladder. Jump onto the chandelier. Now, when he's looking in the safe, drop the ball on his head to knock him out. Grab the red key. The juggler will also reveal a case. Tap it, and then collect it.

To Steal a Thief Go downstairs and unlock the red cage door. Take the flaming torch and put it on the torch holder to the right of the door. You'll now be able to see into the darkness to your right.

2–3 - A Bedtime Story

A Bedtime Story

To Steal a Thief Take this hat. That's the first item pinched, then.

To Steal a Thief Tug on this cuckoo clock, and then hide in the closet. Once the man has left his bed, jump out and hide in the bed. Wait for the woman to get in.

To Steal a Thief Jump out, tug on the cuckoo clock again, and then get in bed. Now be ready, once the woman wakes up, you'll be catapulted into the air and will have a precious few nanoseconds to grab ahold of the chandelier. Pull it off, and the the gem is yours.

To Steal a Thief Tap on this painting to reveal a glass swan. Pick it up to steal it.

2–4 - The Birthday Cake

The Birthday Cake

To Steal a Thief Hop out of the box. Wait for the chef to put a pie onto the window. Steal it, and jump back into the box. Wait until he has gone back inside, and leap out of the box.

To Steal a Thief Go put the pie on the other window. Knock on the door. A boy will appear, and start chowing down on the pie.

To Steal a Thief Now go and steal another pie from the chef. Again, jump in the box. When the chef starts arguing with the kid, enter the shop to steal the orange cake. Now leap back inside the box and wait for the chef to go indoors.

2–5 - To Steal a Thief

To start with, wait for the patrolling guard to turn his back. Then jump out of the bush and leave, via the sign on the left, to the circus screen.
