"Operation Birthday Bandit is a go. The target is seven." "Right. Got the blueprints." Bill unfolded a party invitation. "It shows a bouncy castle near the primary entry point." "Ignore the bouncy castle, Bill." "But it's a tactical asset. And bouncy." "We are not using the bouncy castle for our exfiltration. What's your disguise?" "A magician," he declared. "Misdirection. 'Behold, I shall make the presents… vanish!'" "You can't do magic." "Details. What's your cover?" "I'm the face painter." "Boring. You should be the pony. I'll be the front end!" "You're on balloon animal duty," she snapped. "That's our way in. Can you make a decent sword?" "I can make a convincing worm." "Perfect. Distract them with worms. We strike during the cake-cutting sugar rush. Now, synchronize your watch with my party horn." "Does it play a little tune?" "It plays 'Get the loot, you idiot.'"
