My theory is that this guy was having a bad time but he finally caught a break with that job he landed, so he got like a rush of motivation and he decided to gamble everything and go all out trying to see if he could get away with shoplifting, that way he'd know 100% he could get away with anything and win in real life. He's kinda like an adrenaline junkie
