Babis is fairly intoxicated, so it would be possible to bait him to talk about one of his past thefts. However, like any Draconum, Babis likes to make challenges. Therefore, he'll tell Thancred that if the two of them want to know more, they'll need to prove their thieving skills.
He will retrieve a lockbox from his bag and challenge either Thancred or Geralt to open it. While the lock is complex, they have two options:
1. They can address the challenge directly 2. They can pick his pocket and use his own key against him
Geralt may also stop the charade at any point, which will disappoint Babis. It is possible to simply make him talk via coercion since he isn't trying to get in trouble, but he may give up less information without prompting.
