We need a 'Distraction' perk for the first screw up on Pick-Pocketing. Gives you five seconds to run like hell before the target realizes what's going on.
this just reminded me of the commercials for twix. "need a moment, grab a twix".
i get caught pickpocketing and the person says:
"what are you doing? GUARDS!"
i stuff a twix in my face and time stops.
when time comes back to normal i say:
"just doing a mandatory pocket inspection... your pockets check out, you're free to go."
