Well, I have the excuse for being there sorted in my head - Fionn has to scout out places they could get ahold of needed gear straightaway. However, given their particularly uncharismatic natures, I'm not so sure those two could sell the idea that they're actors - and Fionn's priority is getting rid of questions, because he's not so sure he can put together a con that will stand up to a lot of scrutiny, so "what have you been in" could be an issue. The whole PA thing is a pretty good idea, though.
