Gnomon - time to move on

I remember an episode of "Mission Impossible" where it was discovered that the Mona Lisa on display in the Louvre was in fact a fake. The Impossible Team was given the task of secretly breaking in before anybody found out and replacing the fake with the real painting (which they happened to have).

Then when they succeeded in doing this, it was discovered that the one originally in the Louvre had been the real one after all, and that the Team had just succeeded in stealing it. So they had to break in a second time, and put the real, real one back in place.
