Molly: “Bill, whisper. The neighborhood has ears and they’ve learned to sing lullabies.” Bill: “Relax. I brought my quiet voice. It’s the one I use at libraries, and there are no children there to complain.” Molly: “Children complain anyway. They complain about dinosaurs having tails.” Bill: “Dinosaurs were robbed of tails. That’s all I’m saying.” Molly: “Focus. We’re breaking into a children’s party to steal all the presents.” Bill: “To steal all the presents. Yes. For reasons. Like… emergency adulthood.” Molly: “Our cover story is ‘delivery men.’” Bill: “Correct. I’m delivering joy.” Molly: “You’re delivering hand cramps from wrapping tape you won’t have.” Bill: “I already wrapped my gloves in duct tape for grip. It’s very safe.” Molly: “It’s safe until you tape yourself to the doorknob.” Bill: “I have untape abilities.” Molly: “You once untaped a chair and tried to bring it to a bank.” Bill: “That chair was essential to the heist. It was… ergonomic.” Molly: “Bill.” Bill: “Okay, okay. I’ll be normal. How are we getting in?” Molly: “I’ve got the key.” Bill: “From where?” Molly: “From the key bowl labeled ‘Front Door—Keep Out, Thieves.’” Bill: “That’s a real label?” Molly: “It’s handwritten by someone who watches a lot of crime shows.” Bill: “Wow. Even their signage is suspicious. I love it. So we’re just walking in?” Molly: “Not just walking. Gliding. Like two fashionable ghosts.” Bill: “I can ghost. I’m already half transparent from eating expired trail mix.” Molly: “Trail mix doesn’t expire. It just… remembers.” Bill: “It remembers suffering.” Molly: “Door’s locked. Time check: thirty seconds until the clapping song starts.” Bill: “What clapping song?” Molly: “The one where parents pretend the kids are in rhythm.” Bill: “That’s my favorite kind of crime: pretending.” Molly: “Shh. Listen.” Bill: “I hear… squeaky wheels. And frosting. And someone yelling ‘Everybody say yay!’” Molly: “That’s the sound of opportunity.” Bill: “I thought opportunity sounded like money.” Molly: “This opportunity is wrapped in ribbon and glitter.” Bill: “Glitter is basically cursed confetti. We should charge an extra fee for it.” Molly: “We don’t charge. We take.” Bill: “Right. We take all the presents.” Molly: “All. The. Presents.” Bill: “What about the card that says ‘From Grandma, Love Always’?” Molly: “We leave it. Grandma gets credit.” Bill: “So we’re stealing the toys but respecting the sentiment.” Molly: “We’re classy criminals.” Bill: “Classy criminals steal sentiment too.” Molly: “Not tonight.” Bill: “Tonight we’re going for toys, scooters, stuffed animals, and maybe that giant dinosaur balloon.” Molly: “Don’t touch the balloon. It’ll lead us to the attic.” Bill: “I hate attics. The dust has opinions.” Molly: “Exactly. Now, plan: you distract at the ‘Craft Table of Doom.’” Bill: “Doom? It’s just paper hats.” Molly: “Paper hats that trap curious fingers.” Bill: “So I’ll distract with… fingerless gloves.” Molly: “No. You’ll distract by loudly asking for tape.” Bill: “Tape is suspicious.” Molly: “So ask like you need it for a superhero costume.” Bill: “I can do that. I’ll say, ‘Hello, tiny agents of justice, do you have tape for my cape?’” Molly: “Perfect. Then I’ll grab the presents from the front corner.” Bill: “How many presents?” Molly: “Enough to power a small nation.” Bill: “Then we’ll need a bag.” Molly: “I have a bag.” Bill: “Like, a normal bag?” Molly: “Like, a magic bag.” Bill: “You said that last time.” Molly: “Last time the bag swallowed a cupcake and burped it back later.” Bill: “That’s not magic. That’s indigestion.” Molly: “Details. Just grab the edge and don’t look at me if it starts singing.” Bill: “Bags that sing are my weakness.” Molly: “Bill—if the presents include anything labeled ‘LEGO CITY,’ you take it.” Bill: “Absolutely. LEGO is basically construction therapy.” Molly: “And if there’s anything labeled ‘MAGIC PEN,’ we leave it.” Bill: “Why?” Molly: “Because last time you used it and drew a mustache on the birthday cake.” Bill: “The cake deserved facial hair.” Molly: “Move. The door’s about to click.” Bill: “I can feel it in my bones.” Molly: “Good. That means you’re alive. Let’s commit light-hearted felony.” Bill: “With style!” Molly: “With speed.” Bill: “With—” Molly: “With quiet.” Bill: “Fine. Quiet. I’ll be silent.” Molly: “You can’t be silent.” Bill: “I can. Watch. I will say nothing.” Molly: “Do not prove it.” Bill: “Okay. Nothing.” Molly: “You’re breathing loudly.” Bill: “It’s nervous breathing.” Molly: “Nervous breathing sounds like you’re chewing on marbles.” Bill: “I’m not chewing marbles. I’m chewing… fear.” Molly: “Terrific. Now go ask for tape.” Bill: “On it. Tiny agents of justice—do you have tape for my—” Molly: “Bill!” Bill: “My heroic cape. Obviously.” Molly: “Do it quickly. We need to be out before the ‘Happy Birthday’ song.” Bill: “Before the song. Got it. What if they sing louder?” Molly: “Then we steal faster.” Bill: “That’s the spirit. Or the soundtrack. Either way, I’m ready.” Molly: “Key’s turning.” Bill: “Opening the door like a professional.” Molly: “Stop talking like a professional criminal.” Bill: “Too late. I’m already narrating.” Molly: “Then narrate silently.” Bill: “I’m whispering.” Molly: “Move.”
