The evening sun slipped through the blinds of Molly’s cluttered apartment, casting long shadows over the scattered blueprints. Molly: "Okay, listen up, we need to hit the party exactly when the magician finishes his third trick." Bill leaned over the kitchen table, tracing a finger over the printed schedule of the magician’s act. Bill: "Got it. The magician’s schedule is posted on the fridge; third trick at 3:15." Molly checked her wristwatch, noting the time with a satisfied grin. Molly: "We’ll dress as the birthday clown and the helper elf; that way we blend with the entertainment crew." Bill slipped into the hallway, pulling the closet door open with a creak. Bill: "The elf costume is in the back of the supply closet; I’ll snag it while the parents are busy with cake." Molly smirked, imagining the elf costume’s oversized ears flopping as they moved. Molly: "After the cake, we slip the presents into the sack hidden under the table; the kids won’t notice a thing." Bill frowned, glancing at the doorway where a few parents lingered with plates. Bill: "What about the parents watching? We need a distraction." Molly chuckled, tapping a pen against her notebook. Molly: "I’ll have the kids do a quick game of musical chairs; when the music stops, everyone’s focused on grabbing a chair, not the gifts." Bill pulled out his phone, scrolling through a list of nearby Wi‑Fi networks to find the camera’s IP. Bill: "Sounds solid. I’ll disable the security cam by looping the feed with my phone; they’ll just see a static loop." The rain began to patter against the windowpanes, casting a rhythmic soundtrack to their whispered scheming, while the distant hum of traffic reminded them that time was ticking relentlessly toward the party’s start in the evening. Molly stretched her arms, yawning softly as she reviewed the plan in her head. Molly: "We’ll meet at the back door at 3:30, grab the sack, and vanish before the parents realize the presents are gone." Bill smirked, already picturing the swift escape down the narrow alley. Bill: "If anything goes wrong, we blame the party entertainer for ‘misplacing’ the loot." Molly leaned forward, emphasizing the importance of the sack’s color. Molly: "Remember, the sack must be the red one with the star patch; it’s the only one that fits under the table without bulging." Bill shrugged, reaching for a spare sack tucked behind a stack of gift wrap. Bill: "I’ll swap it with the blue sack from gift table while the kids are distracted by the piñata." Molly tapped her chin, thinking about the timing of the piñata swing. Molly: "After the piñata bursts, we’ll have chaos; that’s our cue to move the sack." Bill stood, grabbing his jacket and heading toward the back door. Bill: "We’ll meet behind the house; I’ll have the bike ready." Molly adjusted her hat, making sure the fake ears were secure. Molly: "If asked, we were just helping pack up." They exchanged a final nod, slipped out into the fading light, and vanished into the night, their plan set in motion.
