From the fake phone call to the intense interest in tampons, we all have our stealth moves. Let's break down why this whole scenario is actually insane when you think about it. Spoiler: it’s like a spy thriller where you’re the secret agent avoiding detection, only armed with a cart full of cheese and wine.
