Barely out of jail, Danny Ocean already plans his next robbery: the common vault of three Las Vegas casinos. Incidentally, Ocean's ex-wife Tess had left him for the casino's owner, Terry Benedict, when he went to prison. With the help of his friend Rusty Ryan and the financial backing of Reuben Tishkoff whose casino was bankrupt by Benedict, Ocean assembles a team of ten criminals with various skills. They start by observing the casino, learning its routines, the behaviour of its staff and the building itself. They connect themselves to the casino's video surveillance system and also build a replica of the vault for rehearsing the theft. The destruction of Tishkoff's old casino causes a power loss in the district, causing the maintenance personnel to correct an issue that Ocean is planning to exploit. They solve that problem by stealing an EMP device from a university research center. Danny meets with Tess and Benedict has him barred from the casino. The heist starts with Ocean entering the casino and being detained in a surveillance-free room to be beaten up by a man who secretly works for Ocean. He reaches the elevator shaft through the ventilation system and meets Linus who entered the place pretending to be a gambling official. Meanwhile, Saul convinces Benedict to store a precious briefcase containing disguised explosives in the vault. Virgil an Turk smuggle acrobat Yen into the vault in a casino trolley and Basher uses the EMP device to cut the power, disabling the laser grid protecting the shaft. Yen then uses the explosives to open the door from the inside, letting Ocean and Linus in. Rusty calls Benedict, reveals the robbery and blackmails him into giving up half of the cash, to be put in a van waiting outside. Through the surveillance cameras, Benedict verifies the vault is compromised and surrenders to the blackmail. He calls a SWAT team while his men follow the van to the airport. The SWAT team assaults the vault but explosives are detonated, destroying the remaining money. Meanwhile, the van is found to be radio-controlled and to contain only worthless paper. Benedict dismisses the SWAT team before realizing the surveillance system has been compromised: he was watching a video filmed in the replica vault. The SWAT team was actually composed of Ocean's team who emptied it before leaving through the front door. Ocean returns to the secure room where Benedict arrives to confronts him; he is tricked into admitting that he would give up Tessa in exchange of recovering his money, but Tessa is shown the scene and decides to leave him. Ocean is sentenced to few months in prison, but Tessa and Rusty are waiting for him on his release.
