Charleston is the second largest city in the U.S. state of South Carolina. It was made the county seat of Charleston County in 1901 when Charleston County was founded. The city's original name was Charles Towne in 1670, and it moved to its present location (Oyster Point) from a location on the west bank of the Ashley River (Albemarle Point) in 1680. It adopted its present name in 1783. In 1690, Charleston was the fifth largest city in North America, and remained among the ten largest cities in the United States through the 1840 census. As defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, and used by the U.S. Census Bureau for statistical purposes only, Charleston is included within the Charleston – North Charleston – Summerville metropolitan area and the Charleston-North Charleston urban area.
Charleston is known as The Holy City due to the prominence of churches on the low-rise cityscape, particularly the numerous steeples which dot the city's skyline, and for the fact that it was one of the few cities in the original thirteen colonies to provide religious tolerance, albeit restricted to non-Catholics. Many Huguenots found their way to Charleston. Charleston was also one of the first colonial cities after Savannah, Georgia to allow Jews to practice their faith without restriction. Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim, founded in 1749, is the fourth oldest Jewish congregation in the continental United States. Brith Sholom Beth Israel is the oldest Orthodox synagogue in the South, founded by Ashkenazi (German and Central European Jews) Jews in the mid-19th century.

Plot: Brothers - older Stephen and three years junior Bloom - have been con artists since they were kids. Stephen is the mastermind, for who the intricacy of the story used in the con is as important as the positive outcome of the swindle. Bloom is the main character of Stephen's stories, the character he considers the anti-hero. As adults, they travel the world and never enlist the same people twice in their cons, except for their consistent sidekick, the mysterious and primarily silent Bang Bang, a Japanese woman who just appeared in their lives one day and who has a penchant for blowing things up. As Bloom hits his mid-thirties, he wants to quit the business as he is losing his own identity to that of the characters he portrays; he doesn't know anymore what is real and what is make-believe. Stephen talks him into one last con, the mark to be the eccentric, lonely but beautiful New Jersey heiress, Penelope Stamp. Penelope's primary past-time in life is to, as she calls it, "borrow hobbies": when she sees something she likes, she learns how to do it solely through reading books. As the brothers go through their final con on Penelope, three main problems may occur to thwart the plan. First, the brothers' former mentor and now arch enemy, Diamond Dog, may exact his long awaited revenge on the brothers. Second, Penelope may end up being more unpredictable than all their former marks. And third, Bloom, who has let love slip by in his life, may fall for Penelope. But through the process, no one ever really knows who is conning who.

Des Steinway des Pleyel et des Gaveau,
Du teintement des pourboires économiques,
Nous on connait la musique,
Pour ce qui est du reste, ca c'est pas nos oignons,
Artistes nous on ne l'est pas pour deux ronds
Quand la musique vous a brisé les reins,
Y'a pas de charleston qui tient.
Pour nous prendre aux tripes,
Faut se lever de bonnes heures,
Dire qu'il y a des types,
Qui sur cet engin de malheur
Arrivent à faire croire à tout les balots,
Que la vie c'est comme au piano.
De l'amour ils en font tout un cinéma,
A les ecouter de vrai y'aurait que ça,
Qu'est ce qui resterait pour les déménageurs,
Qu'en ont des tonnes sur le coeur,
Il nous resterait qu'à nous noircir sur le zing
Mais là encore faut se farcir le bastringue
Il se trouve toujours parmi nous un tocard
Pour y glisser ses pourboires.
Pour tous les faire taire,
Y'a vraiment qu'une façon,
Les envoyer faire, un petit tour au charbon
Sur le piano de massacre de la réalité
Ils toucheraient du doigt la purée.
C'est nous les démenageurs de piano,
Des Steinway des Pleyel et des Gaveau,
Du teintement des pourboires economiques,
Nous on connait la musique,
Au fond à quoi qu'ca sert de discuter,
Comme l'a dit l'autre, a chacun son metier,
Tirer sur le pianiste, c'est pas notre boulot,
Nous on tire sur le piano
