In the heart of the city, under the neon glow of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it diner, Molly and Bill huddled over a blueprint, their eyes gleaming with mischief. The blueprint was not of a bank or a high-security vault, but of a children's party venue, complete with a bounce house and a coterie of clowns. "Look at this, Bill," Molly said, her finger tracing a path from the entrance to the gift table laden with brightly wrapped presents. "We'll be in and out before they can say 'pin the tail on the donkey'." Bill, a man of few words, grunted in agreement, his gaze fixed on the clown quarters. "Clowns," he muttered, a shudder running through his large frame. "I hate clowns." Molly chuckled, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "You'd rather face a pack of guard dogs than a few harmless clowns?" "Any day," Bill replied, his voice barely a whisper. Molly patted his hand, her laughter subsiding. "Don't worry, Bill. We'll avoid the clowns. We're after the presents, remember?" As the night deepened, their plan took shape. They would slip in as the party wound down, grab the gifts, and vanish into the night. It was a simple plan, but then again, the best ones usually were. And in the world of Molly and Bill, even the simplest plans had a knack for going delightfully awry.
